    It’s fitting because at the end of that episode, they learn that the US was in fact the alien invaders declaring war on other planets.

    I hope that Iran will make Project 2025’s backers find out. Our bastard leadership think there are no consequences for doing evil and stupid things, and are in severe need of an attitude readjustment.

      Iran would be perfectly within their rights to assassinate various US government officials. After all, that’s exactly what the US and Israel have been doing in Iran.

        It’s obscene that the resistance forces need to keep appealing to international law in order to maintain credibility while isrl and the empire enact such wild and open terror and war crimes.

        People fighting to liberate themselves from fucking nazis having to justify themselves to nazi sympathizers.

        But do they really have that capability? I agree, it’d be totally justifiable and a credible war target, but let’s be realistic here.

          Considering some rando nearly got Trump, and how the MAGATs have dismantled their intelligence apparatus and completely lack an interest in risk assessment…Iran actually has a decent shot. Literally and figuratively. After all, you don’t have to ID yourself if you claim to be a member of ICE. Just wear a mask, don’t use license plates, and carry weapons, you will look like every other random gravy seal.

      Hate to be that guy but -> “Total global Civilizational Collapse by 2050” is being tossed around. And going by the past absolute fuckery of prediction skills, that means we got at best till 2040… No history or historians, just slow climate death and extinction for all.

        “Total global Civilizational Collapse by 2050” is being tossed around

        By whom?

        Doubt it. Climate change is already happening, but we can mitigate its effects the earlier we tackle it. Plus, no idea who is floating the collapse idea around.

        It would be hilarious if Trump’s, Israel’s and Iran’s actions end up triggering significant climate action out of the sheer cost of continuing to burn oil. The last fuel crisis in the 70s actually caused significant amounts of research into alternatives and some interesting electric vehicles were actually released during that time

    Little baby Trump must have really had some diaper rash from all of the taco memes after he mentioned the two-week window.

    Any American blood spilled by Iran if/when they retaliate will be on Trump’s hands.

    What an absolute joke.

    I can just imagine him writing it, hunched over, peck-hunting for the keys. He starts typing bombs. No, he thinks. Slowly backspaces. Starts giggling to himself as he presses the caps lock key. “This will show them how serious I am about my bombs!”

    peck peck peck “B-O-M-B-S”

    Probably sits back in his chair admiring it for a moment. “Perfect. Very strong. Very powerful bombs.”

    Then immediately starts typing about peace in the same shouty caps because why not? Everything deserves caps lock! BOMBS! PEACE! WHATEVER!

    Then ends it with “Thank you for your attention to this matter” like he just sent out a memo about updating the office dress code instead of announcing he bombed another country.

    It’s such a weirdly formal, corporate sign-off after the most unhinged announcement possible. As if bombing other countries is just another agenda item he’s keeping us informed about. Very considerate of him to loop us in on World War III via Twitter memo.

    Absolutely deranged.

    We’ve launched an unprovoked and unwarranted attack Upon A Sovereign Nation. Now’s the Time For Peace. It’s an amazing sentiment. It’s like a school bullies who hits you and then says you can’t hit me back.

        That’s not something that happened yesterday. There have been no serious chances in the last 20 years or so, according to the oecd I believe.

          So you are saying everyone saying Iran was building nukes were lying? At that point, how do you know the news of the us bombing Iran isn’t also lies?

            Tell me you learned nothing from the Iraq War without telling me you learned nothing from the Iraq War.

            Chris Hedges: War Deja Vu | The lies told to ignite the war with Iraq have been resurrected to ignite a war with Iran. The assessments of intelligence agencies and international bodies are dismissed, replaced by hallucinations.

              Forget the intelligence community’s Annual Threat Assessment that “Iran is not building a nuclear weapon and Supreme leader Khomeini has not authorized the nuclear weapons program that he suspended in 2003,”

              Weirdly enough that assessment says

              In the past year, we’ve seen an erosion of a decades long taboo in Iran on discussing nuclear weapons in public likely emboldening nuclear weapons advocates within Iran’s decision-making apparatus. Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile is at its highest levels and is unprecedented for a state without nuclear weapons

            I mean the intelligence reports said it wasn’t. The people who said it was are known liars Trump and Netanyahu.

            Id believe the Intelligence community over those clowns.
