Indian officials claimed that the Iris Dena, meanwhile, was unarmed, due to the nature of the exercise it had been taking part in. “I am told that as per protocol for this exercise ships cannot carry any ammunition. It was defenceless,” Kanwal Sibal, a former Indian foreign minister, said on X. There is no way of verifying that claim.

Genuine question, we are saying the guy cited in the times of London were just lying/lied to? That would be very abnormal for exercises? www.thetimes.com/world/middle...

And he asked his wise men for a saying which would be true and appropriate in all times and situations.

And, after watching one episode of Love Story which made me feel like I have brain damage, I do kind of want Ryan Murphy to make a Jeffrey Epstein show. I’ve been seeing 25-year-old straight guys walking around New York City in the year 2026 in Kangol hats because of Love Story; what if an FX show made them want to dress like Jeffrey Epstein? JB: Okay, so I actually don’t know this about you at all: do you like TV? Like, “as a form,” but also as in do you have any tv shows you love? CF: I don’t like TV, as in, I don’t watch it. But I do respect the form: Full House, The Bachelor, America’s Next Top Model, Dallas, Game of Thrones, Sex and the City. That’s the gamut this medium spans

For some reason I find this segue absolutely hilarious famousandbeloved.substack.com/p/the-indust...

This would be bad however good it was but it's striking how much better the Washington Capitals version of this was 15 years ago, very low minor league, maybe non-professional production quality

little known because he includes it in a note at the end of book 4B

I think it would be the nazi invasion of Crete (almost failed) or Market Garden (failed)

and if 60, then it would have been vetoed right?

A grandchild of immigrants, born in Maryland, turning down more money from an underdog to play for the overest of dogs, adopting the not actually real Texas culture of Texas, well, unfortunately, that's perfectly America right now

I don’t think this is particularly likely, but if Trump nuked a target in Iran, what do we think would happen in the US

My gut says first order response would be horrifyingly unresponsive, but after all the external responses kicked off much more serious.

My mind says the media would treat that as the #1 always front page story in the way they've skipped a lot of stuff.

(ii)if the passholder is entering by motorcyle— (I)the passholder and any passengers on the motorcyle; and (II)one additional motorcycle, including passengers, accompanying the passholder.

Motorcyclists can bring in a additional motorcycle? No? Yes? I've rarely felt more emotion and more ambivalence at the same time

My skepticism of this episode was unworthy, the landing, the landing.

I think reminding people how just tremendously fragile we are without modern medicine is good right now. Sort of skeptical the flashback will land this point.

In total, the U.S. deliveries through Lend-Lease amounted to $11 billion in materials: over 400,000 jeeps and trucks; 12,000 armored vehicles (including 7,000 tanks, about 1,386[61] of which were M3 Lees and 4,102 M4 Shermans);[62] 11,400 aircraft (4,719 of which were Bell P-39 Airacobras)[63] and 1.75 million tons of food.[64] Roughly 17.5 million tons of military equipment, vehicles, industrial supplies, and food were shipped from the Western Hemisphere to the Soviet Union, with 94 percent coming from the United States. For comparison, a total of 22 million tons landed in Europe to supply American forces from January 1942 to May 1945. It has been estimated that American deliveries to the USSR through the Persian Corridor alone were sufficient, by US Army standards, to maintain sixty combat divisions in the line.[65][66]

Not sure you are human, but on the off chance you are there is so much to learn! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_...

I thought you were joking but searching reveals I was wrong

Rudy W. Giuliani Reza Pahlavi is the heir to a regime of corruption and brutality imposed by outsiders on the Iranian people. He has lived a life of a self proclaimed "prince" supported by the money stolen from the people. His presence demeans the sacrifices being made for freedom.

Who armed the Red Army again?

Probably some gold in people pointing out how deep Jack Handy really is

Add DC, other states if they want it, bigger congress to remove rural bias/shrink ec bias, test the full limits of "but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations" on gerrymandering, expand court to disempower royalists, attempt at pardon amendment, among much else

Also this sort of thing started World War I - so, no, this kind of thing doesn't always just stick to elites

Further research suggests to be that Khamenei disagrees with me and set an IRGC guy as successor to him

I don't understand this thinking, isn't the whole regime built on a cleric at the top? Does it work with an IRGC guy? I thought that when people said Soleimani was a potential successor.

That said I'm just a news reader I don't actually know anything.
