schools are never valid military targets, on or off base if someone bombed a DoD school in Okinawa and killed a bunch of American 4th graders, that would be a war crime. The murder of Iranian schoolchildren is a war crime.

Since news is coming in drips and drops for the English speaking world, the short version is that Shogakukan (approximately Marvel, Image and King Features combined) knowingly hired a child rapist and hid his past from readers and even his assigned collaborator.

Good piece on the ābrain drainā from the U.S. and the history of its ābrain gainā. For the moment, while the numbers might be up, it looks like the real loss is in talented junior and future scholars, rather than senior āstarsā (as most of these programs are not competitive for the latter).

In the past, sometimes presidents have said itās just a military operation or limited airstrikes to skirt Congress. Trump has unilaterally launched major combat operations, declaring war with the goal of regime change. A major violation of the U.S. Constitution, also illegal under international law

need to be clear that by keeping Starmer until May even though almost all of them know he's not up to it, Labour MPs are basically sacrificing hundreds of councillors and dozens of councils on the altar of their own inertia and ineptitude

It does feel like Starmer and Mahmoud have seen Labour rejected by its own *actual* core vote (instead of its imagined one) in its heartland and decided that the answer is just to reject those core voters right back. Suicidal politics.

The timing of the initial strikes is unusual. Often you see these types of operations launched in the pre-dawn hours at the target site partly to limit civilian casualties. This operation began at the beginning of a work and school day, with millions of adult civilians and children in harms way.

Twenty-plus years ago, did big, long Atlantic story based on formal "war game" involving "preemptive" attack on Iran.

Lots of details have changed since then. But not the fundamental conclusion of the war-game: ARE YOU CRAZY?? DO NOT EVEN THINK OF DOING THIS.

The Constitution makes federal law and treaties the supreme law of the land. Federal law says the president may not introduce US forces into āhostilitiesā absent (1) a declaration of war, (2) statutory authorization, or (3) āa national emergency created by attackā on the US or its forces.
