the older I get, the more I understand Stalin's purges. we're going to have a revolution and let these genocidal freaks walk amongst us? redditors? Biden? Kirby? Miller? any US politician?

this was in the latest episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm, wtf is this?

this is the guy's second time on the show. I genuinely don't even remember what he did irl, much less think about this guy in 2024. he's one of those Lev Parnas type guys where I will never care what they did or who they are. he's also quite possibly the worst actor I've ever seen.

Nicaragua v. Germany #ICJ #Germany Germany’s agent weakens case by admitting that Holocaust guilt is the overriding consideration in putting Israel’s security beyond other normative imperatives. This “raison d’etat” (her words) of Israel’s security above all else vs intl law.

it's really comical. they produce nothing and outside of London (only because of money laundering and financial manipulation), the economic state of most of the UK is on par with third world countries.

is it because of the Israel lobby, or because Israel serves some sort of strategic purpose?

Mearsheimer seems to think that it's mostly because of the lobby. I think I agree with him; I really can't think of any unique strategic purpose that Israel serves for the US. if Israel disappears tomorrow, the US still has colossal military bases in the Gulf states, it still has friendly governments in Jordan and Egypt, it occupies Syria and Iraq, it has ISIS to stage crazy terrorist attacks, etc. what exactly does Israel do that's worth all the negatives for the US?

I watched Finkelstein's recent interview on Al Jazeera and he mentioned he disagreed with Mearsheimer. just curious what everyone here thinks.

Milei ends a press conference where he announced that he's giving the USA a naval base in Argentina by screeching his stupid ass catchphrase. No one else joins in, the US ambassador laughs at him, and he leaves the stage to no applause.

Israel has just re-opened the Beit Hanoun/Erez crossing for the first time since 7 October. As repeatedly noted, Israel is so utterly dependent on the US it literally takes just one phone call to reverse Israeli policy 180 degrees.

a couple white aid workers died, Biden makes a phone call, and like magic they're opening the border and allowing more aid in

the US is absolutely terrified that China is producing these products. the cheap, good quality EVs, solar panels, etc. mean that everyone is going to be buying Chinese instead of US products. they can stop this within the US by just banning everything like they're doing with Huawei and Chinese EVs, but other countries? absolutely not going to happen. this is a colossal threat to Western capital.

GUANGZHOU, China, April 4 (Reuters) - U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen arrived in China's southern factory hub of Guangzhou on Thursday with a tough message to Chinese officials: you're producing too much of everything, especially clean energy goods, and the world can't absorb it.

China is unleashing a flood of electric vehicles (EVs), batteries, solar panels, semiconductors and other manufactured goods into global markets, the result of years of massive government subsidies and weak demand at home. Global prices for many goods are tanking, pressuring producers in other countries.

seeing so much stuff on twitter about Iran's potential retaliation. people talking about Israel opening up bomb shelters in fear of it, GPS being jammed in the Persian gulf, etc.

they kind of have to do something at this point, wonder what it'll be. ICBMs to Tel Aviv I hope.

Isntreal just murdered a bunch of foreign national NGO and UN workers, wonder if these countries will even feign outrage or go straight to calling the dead anti-semitic for making Isntreal look bad

I said this months ago, but Germany found the cheat code to openly become Nazi Germany again. just say you're doing it to "fight anti-semitism" this time around, and you can do whatever.
