There's never a bad time to be reminded of... #Stupidity

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi confirms that the IRGC is conducting operations in a decentralized structure as per general instructions. Meaning they are not following a central command. This makes it difficult for the US and Israel to pressure a surrender or an end to the war.

"Prime Minister Mark Carney said Canada is not participating militarily and the federal government was 'not party to the military buildup or planning.'" www.cbc.ca/news/world/l...

"Only ⁠one in four Americans approves of the US strikes that killed Iran’s leader on Saturday, while about half – including one in four Republicans – believe US President Donald Trump ‌is too willing to use ⁠military force, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll." www.france24.com/en/asia-paci...

I’ll believe petulant peewee piffleswipe Pierre Poilievre has sincerely turned over a new leaf when he condemns his KuKluxKonvoy, 🍁gun cult, anti-vaxx, anti-immigrant and anti-abortion supporters and admits that that’s what the vast majority of 🇨🇦Canadians have already done. 🤔🧐😒

Given that US corporate media is being bought up by neonazi billionaires & Xitter is a cesspool of disinformation, I beg retired military & IC personnel, to join Bsky and post regularly their thoughts on what they are witnessing. Especially those who have previously gamed out conflict with #Iran.

ok, so we get about 20% of our oil from the middle east- and yeah, it transits through the Straight of Hormuz. a lot of countries get theirs that way too- like China. except they get almost 70% of it from there. monday markets are gonna be fun.

@bencollins.bsky.social, if you have them, please republish the old Onion archives leading up to the war in Iraq. The searing satire was brilliant and needs a reboot as a war with Iran looms closer.

🚨 BREAKING: Iranian ballistic missiles have struck Dubai International Airport, with photos and videos from inside the terminal showing smoke and visible damage. The airport is now evacuating. UAE authorities have not yet issued an official statement on casualties or the full extent of the strike.

Iranian regime troops reportedly are cracking down on celebrating crowds and have arrested dozens.

Trump's Board of Peace launches its first War

so lemme get this right- the same guy who declared "Iran's nuclear program and capabilities have been destroyed" also says he killed the Ayatollah. color me dubious.

I’m no supporter of the Iranian regime however, it wasn’t #Iran that blew up the #JCPOA, a deal that took years to develop with many experts in the field, & was working. So launching more illegal strikes on a large complex country won’t lead anywhere good for anyone except a handful of billionaires.

I remember another guy, about 4 years ago said his special military operation would only last 2 or 3 days..

Trump is going to war for himself and his boundless, malicious ego. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-war

"Will Trump still be the president in 2029? I don’t know. Because laws do not matter to dictators." www.thenation.com/article/poli...

Here is @ndp.ca’s statement condemning US-Israeli military strikes in Iran and calling on the Carney government to defend international law

"The Peace President." [Cartoon by Benjamin Slyngstad]

For the smooth brains out there following the US/Israel vs Iran war. A simple explainer: Fall of the regime: Good thing Ayatollah Ali Khamenei dying: Good thing 85 little girls bombed & killed by US / Israel: Bad thing Starting an illegal war: Bad thing

Only to be replaced by another religious leader? www.france24.com/en/asia-paci...

France 24 is a high quality breaking news source, so I'm posting information from it. At least 85 students were killed at a girls' school by US-Israeli air strikes. Don't Trump and Netanyahu (alleged war criminal) sit on the Board of Peace? www.france24.com/en/asia-paci...

"There is no precedent for regime change happening just because of air strikes. Saddam Hussein was overthrown in 2003 by a huge US-led invasion force. Gaddafi of Libya was overthrown in 2011 by rebel forces that were provided with an air force by Nato & some Arab states."

That Board of Peace lasted about as long as it took for Trump to get those membership fees squirrelled away in Qatar.

The Peace President is a Piece of Shit.

Holy fuck! www.cbsnews.com/live-updates...

Those who live in glass concentration camps shouldn’t throw stones.

I'd like to manopause the manoshpere. Men who identify with this anachronistic group are bad examples for the youth of today. Marginalizing 50% of the population because you can't self-actualize makes you weak rather than strong. My wife of 32 years would hand me my ass if I behaved like this:

Mike Huckabee sent an email to embassy staff this morning telling them the mission had shifted to authorized departure status for non-emergency personnel and families due to safety risks. Those wishing to leave “should do so today!” www.jpost.com/israel-news/...

Big Dumb Doug Ford is forever spouting off about being tough on crime and how courts go easy on the bad guys. But he won’t even fund basic, obvious measures to prevent prosecutors and judges being physically attacked right inside courtrooms. 🤷🏼🙄🤷🏼 www.thestar.com/news/canada/...

It looks like another Trump supporter is trying to kill Donald Trump again

Do people not run background checks on their politicians or something?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 For those of us stopped during actual snowstorms for this issue….I am rolling! ✌🏼

Mr. Hoekstra should chew on these figures, and possibly try a less confrontational approach. Zero-sum games don't work in international relations. One attracts more bees with honey than with vinegar.

This is the type of politics & leadership we'd get, but must stop from happening, here in BC, if we elect the #BCConservatives! #bcpoli #vanpoli #cdnpoli
