No idea why (I do actually; friends have lost partners recently) but I may have shed a tear at the end there. What a brilliant writer she is.

The other way of looking at it Pete is you don't have much of an alliance if some of its members actively threaten to invade others

Exactly 5 minutes BEFORE Trump announced a 5-day delay in bombing Iranian power plants, someone purchased $1.5 billion worth of S&P futures in a single trade. Someone also sold $192 million in oil futures. Trump and/or his cronies are engaging in market manipulation and insider trading.

as a seasoned Trump watcher it's clear to me that his tale about Iran reaching out to make "a deal" to end his war of aggression is mostly if not entirely fabricated and represents a desperate attempt to find an offramp before the economy and his political standing totally tank

Hegseth: "We will keep pushing, keep advancing. No quarter, no mercy for our enemies." No quarter is the refusal to take prisoners and instead just execute everyone. It's been considered a war crime for over a century.

For French-speaking followers, this is a sobering but hugely readable look at a world in scarily fast transition, by someone who has witnessed (and understands) more of it than most of us. Top work

I particularly admire "dissent". Lol, indeed. What you're doing is the actual definition of bad-faith engagement. Bye now. Blocking you as soon as I can be reasonably sure you've read this.
