Re: Forum Crickets.

I'll admit right up front that I know nothing and don't care to put forth enough effort to learn more. Mostly because it's a fool's errand, given how everything that is available to us is heavily biased. I'm sure there is something unbiased out there, but there is no way to tell, given the environm...

In my hometown it's actually been unseasonably cold and rainy. It was hot for a few days, like spring/summer had arrived in force, but now it's colder and wetter than it was in March. It's much needed though, as our province has been experiencing a lot of wildfires along with the associated smoke. ...

I love hot humid weather. I think it’s supposed to rain today, right on the No Kings marchers.
But providentially will not rain on the Washington D.C. waste of money parade?

Conclusion: 10. Now comes the strategic phase. It’s obvious that the U.S. and Israel are playing **good cop, bad cop** with Iran. Israel strikes.

That Israel was able to do all they did shows what a mismatch it is between Iran and Israel. Israel can count on different forms of powerful backing from the United States.

When a terrorist state keeps trying to kill you while chanting "Death to America" and "Death to Israel", you either do something about it
