Plenty of monsters to go around, I do hope they lose (again).

She also voted against acknowledging the Israeli occupation of Palestinian land, part of a wider pattern of deference to Israel that puts Tanden out of step with both the Democratic electorate and, increasingly, voters as a whole. That was part of a bigger trend of Tanden censoring internal criticism of Israel and Benjamin Netanyahu while giving him and other right-wing Israeli officials progressive cover as they increasingly bucked US interests and her own party specifically. Fealty to an out-of-control Israel was a big ingredient in the Democratic loss in 2024, but Tanden’s appointment doesn’t suggest that that’s been understood.

The biggest stain on Sullivan’s tenure is the genocide in Gaza during Biden’s final year, a monstrous crime that he fully supported. Two months after leaving the White House, Sullivan made explicitly clear that, in hindsight, he still personally opposed withholding military aid from Israel as leverage to change its behavior, and that he held no regrets around not “squeezing Netanyahu more.” The result was not just a world-historical bloodbath, but that Sullivan managed to destroy US global standing, the administration’s own plans for the region, the post–World War II global order, and the possibility of a two-state solution, all at the same time.

The aptly named Slaughter played a major role in the Libya regime-change debacle, which Barack Obama himself admitted was his worst foreign policy decision. The decision to involve the United States in an internal crisis in Libya and then shift midway through to trying to topple dictator Muammar Gaddafi was an epochal disaster that continues to ripple throughout the region, having set off a chain of violence across the Middle East and North Africa that has led to more disastrous Western military intervention, an explosion of armed extremism, and the toppling of governments, all while contributing to a migrant crisis that has fed the rise of Europe’s far right.

Zelensky did say he wanted Ukraine to be like Israel and Israel is a racist fascist state.

This is the third church that they’ve bombed in Gaza

Better trustworthy sources like the BBC, WaPo and NYT.

Wikipedia tells me that Winnie the Pooh is banned in China which isn’t true.

How is the US supposed to contain China if it is bogged down in Eastern Europe and Southwest Asia?

The Western media is made up of professional liars.

How else will Israel replenish its depleted stock of interceptors and bombs?

The crazy thing in 2008 I genuinely believed that the US might actually build a high speed rail.

Someone needs to break the duopoly. HarmonyOS isn’t open source but I’m hoping it will force Google and others to behave.

The Chuo Shinkansen is scheduled to open in 2034.

No, this is misleading. Not in service, and only an engine car.

Is it actually in service? It seems like not yet, but I do think they will beat the Chuo Shinkansen in both time and speed.

The purpose was always to exploit Ukraine and to eventually do the same to Russia. Some are aware of the plan, many bought into the propaganda. If the West are capable of committing a genocide in Gaza and pretending to be the good/civilized, they can get away with anything.

You got it boss/bossette.

First: you have to go back to the moment the big bang happened.

Second: you have to wonder why NATO kept on expanding east after the fall of the USSR.

Three: you have to disregard previous two steps and assume all who don’t submit to NATO are evil.

This post is getting brigaded with downvotes.

I don’t care. Whatever ends up weakening the US. I’m tired of it turning my region into a shooting range.

Apple doesn’t sell WebObjects anymore, I don’t think they use Java internally anymore.

So much for ceasefire

I waited 20 years for this.

I love watching them misfire and end up hitting their own. https://youtube.com/shorts/LYxs_4uDx9g

That’s American™️ Engineering for you.
