Here is the statement from Keir Starmer on the illegal bombing by the US of Iran’s nuclear facilities last night. It doesn't condemn Trump’s unilateral action as illegal, makes no attempt to distance the UK and it now puts all UK citizens in increased danger. Spineless, toadying, and exactly what I would expect from Starmer. I look forward to Lammy brown-nosing further. #NotInMyName #Iran #Israel
En 2016 una de las cosas que me hizo desgañitarme fue cuando TRUMP! empezó a hablar de sus ganas de soltar una bomba nuclear. Y eso no afectó lo más mínimo a las encuestas de intención de voto.
Mi mayor sorpresa del primer mandato fue que no llegara a soltarla.
Y Elon Musk seguro tiene información por ahí. Que para algo invierten en estas cosas. Aunque no descartemos que simplemente #DonaldTacoTrump sea imbécil.
Years ago, only mere decades, people used cash so most of the transactions weren’t noted. We didn’t have smart tv’s or meters, no tracking devices on cars, no CCTV, no mobile phones. On the face of it, introducing all those things appeared to make life easier. For you to monitor yourself and use those things to save time and hassle.
But the purpose has switched. All of that now traps us, monitors us, and will ultimately it seems, be used against us. Everything moving online, including medical appointments is the worst thing we could have done. With that they know how to get to you, and collectively they can manipulate things. Knowledge is power as they say.
They also do not appear to be making a secret of a social credit score scheme rolling out, similar to another country recently mentioned in the media a lot.
But let’s be honest, we have a class system in this country going back centuries which used to be your social credit score, then we introduced credit cards and a credit rating. Sounds like a credit system to me. And we blithely accepted that one without question.
The roll out of fitbit and apple watches to monitor your heartbeat and vitals. Exercise bikes in the home fitted up to a central system that knows you are exercising. Smart fridges that can be controlled by something somewhere. Points and incentives already for shopping where they encourage you to.
Sounds like a credit system and monitoring to me, but we invited it, signed up to it and didn’t notice when they changed the rules. They are already talking of ‘incentives’ to make you lose weight and live healthier by their standards.
In my mind, to monitor someone on that, you have to have them log in every morning, noon and night, fill in what they eat, they drink and what they do in a day. Sounds a bit intrusive doesn’t it. They have proved they don’t trust the public one bit to make their own decisions or run their own lives.
So, picture it. You wake up, sign into your app, do your exercise, eat what they say, you get your points for the day or approval rating for your transaction. Then the next day the same, but after a week or so they decide they need to know more information. They suspect you are eating things while you are out and not reporting them, so they install a urine monitor.
Every morning, noon and night, you now have to give them a sample, to prove that you are complying. They lock your fridge once you have gone over your allotted calorie intake for the day. They restrict your card so you can’t buy food while out. They insist it is to keep you healthy, but you end up hungry, stressed, sneaking around and unhappy.
It’s a slippery slope and one we are already on and picking up speed at an alarming pace. When they start interfering in where you can go, who you can see and what you can say should have been the first warning. It will be followed by what you can wear, what you can eat, how much you can weight.
Just imagine the worst, most vindictive, controlling, hateful and unreasonable parent in the world, calling all the shots in your life, for the rest of your life. Making the most outrageous demands, stopping you doing things you enjoy just because they like depriving you of things. No-one should have more right over your body than you. Full stop.
Take a good long hard look around. Really see these systems for what they are, understand what they intend to do with them, and how that will change things going forward.
If you can work your way through all the smokescreens, lies and diversions, it is there in plain sight. And it isn’t pretty…

If you favor impeachment and removal, I’m with you. Honest question: do you seriously believe the Senate would •ever• vote to remove on principles alone, absent the population applying massive and sustained political and economic pressure? Really? Really???
If you favor a general strike or other form of sustained nationwide uprising against fascism, I’m with you. Honest question: you want Trump out, right? You realize that every single way of doing that other than impeachment is even harder, right?
would really like to trigger enough GOP resignations from congress to take control of the speakership. Could take months of unrest to get a conviction in the Senate.
exactly. Every successful political movement has involved both people who work through governmental processes, and allies who work through non-governmental means.

Hablando de cosas banales (hoy toca) me he visto las tres películas de Star Wars I II III las modernas y mi crítica final es que MENUDA MIERDA DE PELICULAS. QUE MALAS. La historia va a tronpicones, los personajes son odiosos, malos actores (incluyo a Natalie Portman) la edición, todo es aburrido a más no poder. Podrían haber resumido todo en la última y el ascenso de Darth Vader. Ah y Padme enamorándose del que conociese siendo un niño de 8 años, ejem....the fuck? Me quedo con las clásicas que al menos le pusieron amor, cariño e intención.
another British poodle wouldn't it be nice if he used his legal mind and explained the legal basis for a) Israeli attacks on hospitals, journalists, starving people in queues for aid etc b) The rationale behind sending weapons to Israel c) what REAL Intel there is on Iranian nukes. (So far no increase in radiation levels following Taco's strike) d) Why do the Brits kowtow to Taco when there are better trade and security partners close to hand.
@violetmadder I'm in Texas. I'm not certain if it's even legal here, but what I do know is that they are cracking down on it, and it probably won't be legal for long if it still is. We don't like having nice things here in Texas, apparently.
Latest update for log_list.json includes a logs: [], which breaks the requirement here. However maybe we should be checking whether logs or tiled_logs is not empty instead?
I don't like that you explicitly state "poorly implemented". Yes, maybe, but no reason to shit on the developer when they are unpaid and not the actual issue here. That's insensitive and uncalled for.
@julijane it’s not so black and white. If you are an unpaid maintainer you have no obligation to put in extra work, for sure. But if you do take down the banking system of a country once (still not your fault!) and people tell you your library is broken… I think you start having a responsibility to either deprecate it, fix it, or at least warn users. We live in a society.
Amongst other things, there's an open source software supply chain story here.
This Android library with 174 stars and one maintainer has taken down Monday.com, Eventbrite (!!!), UPS, Kraken, Lowe's, YBS, IKEA, Agibank, iFood, PagBank, pago.ro, and Udemy.
Again, this is the same failure mode that caused outages in 2023.

Congratulations, President Trump, your bold decision to target Iran’s nuclear facilities with the awesome and righteous might of the United States will change history.
The problem with making a deal with Iran that offers Iran upside is it lets them improve their economy and thus pour more resources into various non-nuclear undertakings. This is especially a problem from Israel’s perspective, since they are the targets of many of these undertakings.
But the problem with not offering Iran upside is that if Iran doesn’t get upside in a deal, then there’s no deal. You end up with either a nuclear Iran or a war.
Now, maybe the war will end up being a “splendid little war” conducted by air with no American casualties and minimal impacts on Israel. Maybe Iran caves and signs a humiliating deal. This definitely might happen, and I wouldn’t trust anyone who professes to be certain it will turn into a fiasco.
That said, as Robert Pape wrote a few days ago, the practical track record of countries achieving major strategic goals through air power alone is pretty thin. Ever since aerial bombardment was invented, there’s been a desire to believe wars can be won by securing air superiority and dropping bombs, but it rarely works.
It’s going to be hard to know how much damage has actually been done to Iran’s underground nuclear facilities.
The treatment received by North Korea over the past 25 years — in contrast to Iraq, Libya, Iran, and, in a different way, Ukraine — is a strong argument for countries to sprint to nuclear weapons development and then figure things out from there. The “Iran surrenders” scenario is definitely on the table, but “Iran genuinely goes for a nuclear weapon” seems like a more likely scenario.
#SaudiArabia has condemned #US strikes against #Iran and called on the global community to focus on resolving the crisis..... meanwhile allows the US air force to use its airspace as it wishes. Saudi Arabia is as close to the West in hypocrisy as it can be.
@jeremy_pm exactly. and i think they're very wise. the hit was nothing. it was practically an olive branch. the iranians wont hit the u.s. not over this. but they've already pummeled both tel aviv and haifa.
@jeremy_pm exactly. he gets to say he "stopped the program" bc nobody reads anyways. and he doesnt get bogged down and he doesnt piss off the iranians enough to justify attacking, at which point trump would enter the war.
@benda There is also potential for this to lead US into civil war especially considering the majority of #MAGA voted for NO MORE WARS and AMERICA FIRST.
Suddenly many of the victims of the US oligarchy, left and right, have a common enemy.

So the US bombed three empty facilities, two of which already bombed by Israel with negligible results. Fordow intact apart from one entry and one exit. Nuclear material already moved elsewhere. CentCom apparently not involved. None of the attack came from the regional bases, understandably.

Transpires that Israel is a conduit for US's imperialistic, hegemonic foreign policy.
Many things have changed since this policy papers were published. What hasn't changed is the US/Israeli aggression in the Middle East. US foreign policy is bipartisan, no change regardless of who sits in the White House
Again, it's not Israel initiating war to Iran. US and Israel operate in lockstep in the Middle East. As this 2009 thinktank policy paper shows, the plan to regime change Iran has been long in the making Page 12 is a good summary if you don't have time to read it all.

Iranian official reportedly says fuel ships may not pass to #Europe through the Strait of #Hormuz
If #Iran carries out its threat to block oil tankers, the whole West will collapse within days. #EU will face an existential threat, but what else can the #Brussels puppets do when they have been subservient to the #US since 1945? They will suffer their fate...
@bluevelvet321 i dont know about days. do the european powers not have oil reserves? but either way, yeah. if iran does this, they will just carpet bomb the country. i think they'll wait. for now, they will only keep hitting israel.
Oil experts warn that oil could surge everywhere between $120 to $300 dollars per barrel if the Strait is shut down, totally destroy global energy markets.
Such high prices would put enormous pressure on the government of the orange fascist, who would probably push for a resolution of the conflict as soon as possible to stabilize the situation.
Khamenei LIVE: Iran Supreme Leader's Speech On US Joining Israel War Viral After Trump Bombs Iran#khamenei #live #donaldtrump #us #iran #israel #israelvsiran...
@Spartacus First such a blockade won't be tolerated, second, the US and Canada produce enough oil for their needs, it's just not the kind of oil our refineries are well suited to distill. No doubt energy prices will rise but the world will not grind to a halt.
If Iran mines the straits there is nothing the US can do. Second the US produces a lot of oil but is still in deficit. And if prices rise in the world market they will rise inside the US no matter how much oil they produce. It's just capitalism.
@Spartacus Sure there is, we have mine sweepers, and no doubt our satellites would spot them in the act and destroy the vessels involved. It's not like mines are a new technology that we have not encountered before.
@Spartacus I imagine pretty much the same way it did in ww II except there are some newer technologies. Besides that, Iran relies on it's oil revenues for most of it's income, they'd also sabotage their own shipping.
@nanook except we are no longer in WWII and the US is not the superpower it once was. IF it ever was, that is. Iran relies on oil revenues and can continue to ship oil to its largest buyer, China, even with the straits closed.
@Spartacus How do you suppose they are going to ship it? You think maybe they're going to go through the Caspian Sea and via Russia? or perhaps through Afghanistan or Pakistan? I don't think so. You think maybe they have mines that can tell an enemy ship from their own? I kind of doubt it.
Iran has no effective air force, we do. They have not much navy either. This war isn't good for anyone, what Trump did was no doubt foolhardy, but also largely theatrical, we know we did not put a serious dent in their program, that is obvious, they were warned ahead of time so they had time to move nuclear materials in advance, the centrifuges were too deep to be hurt.
I still believe the reason we still don't have a full list of Epstein's clients is because Trump is on the list and Mossad is behind the Epstein operation. NBC News footage from November 1992 showing Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein at a party in Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort. (YouTube screen capture)November 3, 2024, 2:52 pm In audio clip from 2017, Jeffrey Epstein said he was once Trump’s ‘closest friend’ Ok, it's hard to find out whether Epstein himself was Jewish but he was in the banking industry before he got into the child sex industry and that industry is dominated by Jews, especially in New York which is where he was from.
So it is still my belief that Trump was blackmailed into this and dropped the bunker busters not because he had any real hope of penetrating a mountain but to make a show for Netanyahu. Does that make him a good guy? No the fact that he could participated in behavior that allowed him to be blackmailed is not good, but I think you'd find that true for the majority of congress.
But you and I can speculate all day, it really doesn't matter as it won't affect how history plays out. I'm hoping this does not continue to escalate into a war between US / China / and Russia. I think that is the real risk, not an oil shortage.
@nanook This is exactly what it means for Iran to have complete control of the strait. To control who passes through and who doesn't.
The laying of mines in the sea is done in a way that will leave a free passage known only to the one who laid the mines. It's been done all along But the biggest mistake you're making is thinking that those who are pursuing this - and any other - war care more about human lives than oil prices. Well, they don't.
@nanook Dude, it's underwater. I understand that you are projecting what you wish, it's just that the world outside the US doesn't work that way. Youbl are way behind on war technology for the last 20 years or more And at some point you have to deal with it
@Spartacus I've had the opportunity to see some of the satellite data. Even from 200 miles up, the resolution is so good I was able to read the license plates of cars in a parking lot in spite of the obtuse angle.
But as I've stated it is just speculation, history will play out however it does, and honestly I'd much rather it play out the way you think it is likely to than the way I fear it may because at least your way we'll still be around to witness it.
I just fear with a handful of countries, two of them having more than 5000 nukes each, there is the potential for this to go a lot further south than just an oil shortage.
At any rate, I see no reason to get so hung up on the details. I think we can both agree that what Trump did was bat shit crazy and also quite the opposite of what he promised while running. But the dead is done, all we can do now is wait and see where the dust settles.
@Spartacus When you use pronouns like "they" without qualifying whom "they" refers to, it makes it rather difficult to make sense of your sentence.
Look, I see no point to posturing, history will play out however it does. But I do not see the threat of oil shipping being impinged upon as significant compared to the threat of US/China/Russia nuclear war.

The US military has bombed multiple Iranian nuclear sites on the orders of President Trump, immediately putting tens of thousands of US military personnel in the region at risk of an Iranian retaliation which can then escalate to full-scale war.
This is yet another betrayal of the American people by yet another president who clearly does not have its national interests in mind. Even if it initially looks as if things are going well for this course of action, well, Iraq and Afghanistan looked pretty good too… at first.
Trump turning neoclown also implies that the USA will renew its military and financial support for Ukraine.
