🔴 US attack on nuclear facilities shows its involvement in planning INITIAL Israeli attack on Iran.
🔴 World community's silence after the US attack puts it under unprecedented threat.

I just got one of these. It's a Retekess V115 and I'm well pleased with it. Great selectivity, and it sounds better than you'd expect for its size. AM / FM / 8 SW bands. I spent $12 for mine, you can probably get one from Amazon. Highly recommended.

Title. Interested to see the response from different religions
Edit: Stating your religion would be appreciated. Lack of religion counts for the purpose of this question
I'm an atheist. I dated a woman once who believed in spirits. I think she experienced night terrors among other things and interpreted them as supernatural phenomena. It didn't cause problems then but I was a lot younger and I think now I'm less tolerant of that sort of thing. But who knows - I was crazy about her so maybe if I meet a woman I'm crazy about like that again then I'll tolerate anything.
More recently I've dated people who believe in a vague sort of life after death but never someone who practiced any religion. I think I would immediately rule out practicing religious people if I were going through a list (as when dating online) but if I met someone in person, really liked her, and then found out she was religious then I'm not sure what I would do. It would definitely be off-putting.
The problem for me isn't the lifestyle differences but rather my impression that religious people are missing the point about the basic nature of existence, when it really should be obvious. It makes me feel like I'm patronizing them, because to be frank I don't tend to think of them as my intellectual equals. (And I know that makes me sound like a pompous jerk.)
I think people's behavior is determined much more by social conventions and the expectations of their community (in addition to pragmatic self-interest) than it is by logical reasoning. I'll risk being the preachy vegetarian by discussing people's attitudes towards eating meat. Most people sincerely believe that cruelty to animals is wrong, and also that factory farming (if not all killing) is cruel. Yet they eat meat. I even know some people who started eating meat again after being ethical vegetarians. Did they change their minds about whether or not harming animals is bad? No. If pressed, they feel guilty but they don't like to talk about it. The reason they're eating meat is because it's convenient and almost everyone expects them to, not because they reasoned from first principles. Likewise with religion - if no one else is giving everything away to the poor and everyone will think you're crazy if you do rather than praising you, you're not going to give everything away to the poor even if it would make sense to do so given what you believe.
Edit: Kidney donation is another example. I met a woman once who donated a kidney to a friend of her mother's. This person wasn't someone particularly dear to her, but she found out that he needed a kidney to live and she gave him hers. I think that what she did is commendable, but I still have both my kidneys. This is despite the fact that I sincerely believe that if, for example, I saw a drowning child then I would risk my life to save him. People would think I was a hero if I saved the child, or that I was a coward if I didn't try. Meanwhile almost everyone I know would think I went crazy if I donated a kidney to a stranger. My relatives would be extremely worried, and they would try to talk me out of it. I'm not going to do something difficult, painful, and (to an extent) dangerous when everyone I know would disapprove, even if in principle I think risking my life to save another's is a good thing to do.

Palestine Action to be added to list of proscribed groups alongside ISIS and al-Qaeda - for trying to stop mass murder of Palestinians
UK's Home Secretary Yvette Cooper plans to ban - or 'proscribe' the Palestine Action (PA) anti-genocide group over the summer, according to the BBC. The move will mean PA is treated as a terrorist organisation, listed alongside the likes of ISIS and al-Qaeda - and membership of, or support for, the group will become illegal.

@zleap if they win here first. we'll see. i don't think they've got it. they will cause untold pain and damage to iran. but the ir and the iranian people will come out on top.
these are the people who couldn't beat the taliban. now they're up against the entire resistance. shit for brains president and prime minister don't know what they got themselves into.
I agree, however Starmer was sidelined the other day so the UK is clearly not seen as a very 'good' ally by Trump, however the UKs idea of security is a total joke.
Boats still coming over daily
Memembers of Palestinian action just walked or rode in to RAF Brise Norton and spray painted on a RAF refuling plane.
Note: Brise Norton back in the 80s held the US Nuclear missiles
The Government response is to ban the group, duh that won't stop people, armed guards on the entrance and perimeter of the base, with the power and ORDER to either shoot or detain anyone entering.
But we won't do that.
The UK is pathetic, which could be a reason Trump sidelined us, Trump is also dismissing the EU with regard to negotiations, this suggests that all this a huge ego trip for Trump rather than a genuine attempt to bring about peace and lasting change.
If you can over throw the current regime and install a sensible government who is firm and fair this will go some way to bring anout change.
You cannot have open borders, but at the same time why do people seek to enter the US?, if you had better equality then there would be little need for economic migration, other than for say skill sharing, there would be little reason for refugees, again as there is equality in wealth.
You need to bring people in to take up certain jobs, so make this easier for people to do so, with the right visa you get afforded rights, (you may need to sort out better worker rights and unions though) So there are proper benefits to proper channels
At the same time, you cannot have people with criminal records coming, (and you certainly can't have people who have committed crime, esp serious crime as your president) so a proper robust immigration system is needed. That not only protects US citizens but ALSO protects other migrants and that includes from each other. Leave your problems at the border.
There needs to be a revolution yes, but not just against
trump but big tech and social media giants who spread mis information and lies.
@zleap @argumento @benda
You can't enforce regime change if there are no strong forces to take over.
And what gives western countries the right to demand and enforce such policies?
And US economy and most of the western capitalism is built on exploitation, without cheap labour, the whole economical model will collapse.
I understand that, I am not anti immigration in that way just trying to see if there is a way to make it better for everyone.
Surely having teh right documentation means you have some benefit over working in the shadows.
Deport people found guilty of serious offenses. Not people who just want to work, and earn money for family and live normally.
I think we are stick in a catch 22 here.
Most people in the US now apparently get their news from social media, this would be fine if you can guarentee the quality of the news feed(s) which you can't, couple that with AI generated articles, which as we have discussed on here, us usually not of a very good stanard.
If you add in a lack of education in terms of being able to think, apply critical thinking to things, and seeking out several news narratives, and forming better conclusions (all of which takes efforts)
Billionaires need to maintain the status quo to remain in power, they can do that my manipulating news feeds, and taking data to generate advertising revenue,
They also need to help politics maintain the status quo so nothing then changes, as you said voted in to power then not actually DO anything.
So unless people realise what is going on, and also get there is a better way of doing things, nothing is going to change, demanding another election to vote in another party who will also fail and the cycle will start again.
Even with Cambridge Analytica and other well noted breaches of data, nothing has shifted people away from Meta platforms.
I just hope the EU goes through with the massive fine for the various breaches Meta have been found to be guilty of, and follows through with enforcement.
Ideally they can put the money in to the EU developing alternatives to US corporate solutions. We need that as the UK / EU is being isolated by Trump.
Bad wording here
If there was better equaity continent wide there would be less of an issue wanting to move en-masse to the USA.
#IAEA: "No increase in radioactivity" from the bombings in #Iran
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has said that, so far, there have been no reports of increased levels of off-site radiation following the #US bombings of Iran's nuclear facilities at Fordow, Isfahan and Natanz.
US supposedly , attack nuclear facilities.
So either they weren't nukes there or they just didn't hit them enough.

#Mondoweiss | The Jewish supremacy at the heart of the Zionist project
'In 2018, the Knesset passed the Jewish Nation-State Law, which articulated very clearly that Israel was the nation-state of the Jewish people alone and, by implication, not of all its citizens (i.e. Palestinian “citizens” of Israel). The Jewish Nation-State Law is merely a clearer articulation of Israel’s founding structure. Despite this, most American Jews remain steadfast in their position that Israel is the “only democracy in the Middle East.”'

Trump has volunteered the US military as an instrument for Israel, a genocidal foreign colonial implant, to attack a sovereign country that posed no threat to the US
Trump did so in violation of the Constitution and against the wishes of the overwhelming majority of the American public
Trump allowed Israel to exploit American diplomacy as a ruse and made no effort to explain the logic of going to war to the American public
Trump even ended his speech announcing the attacks by declaring, “god bless Israel”
So now it is clear and beyond debate: we live under a Zionist regime that hates us and which will sacrifice us for its ethnosupremacist agenda
And we will reap a whirlwind

Laptops are not generally designed to run like that with a closed lid. Heat dissipation is designed around the idea the laptop is open and some of it is through the keyboard surface. The lid closed would change that.
Systems can of course be setup to power off the display but for server/service uses open laptops may not be efficient space wise.
Having said that if the scenario is low power use the heat dissipation may not be a major issue. But if there is an unremovable battery i'd still be concerned about heat dissipation with the lid closed and even just the battery itself regardless of heat dissipiation.

Israel has targeted three hospitals and six ambulances so far, Iran’s Health Minister Mohammadreza Zafarghandi said.english.masirahtv.net
…but here are some options from a foreign-policy standpoint as laid out by The Atlantic. Seems a reasonable summary to me.
What it completely leaves out is that this is a direct violation of the War Powers Act, the UN Charter (to which the US is signatory), and even the National Security Act. I guess that’s not important anymore.
Correctly, there are calls for impeachment tonight from outside and within Congress. I suggest you write whoever you’ve got up there to do the same. But I do not expect it to go anywhere; I am absolutely confident the MAGAts will find a way to justify their 100% spin on the “peace president” and why bombing Iran – an absolute act of war – is just fine and all the more reason to worship their shit-stain incarnate God Emperor.
I’ve got a short essay going up tomorrow morning at 7:48am. If you know why 7:48am on Sunday is an important time, you’ll probably have some idea what it’s about. You’re probably not completely right – but you’re quite certainly not really wrong, either.

To be very clear, the enrichment sites bombed by the US and Israel in Iran will more than likely not cause a release of radiation into the atmosphere or even local population centers.
Following recent bombings the IAEA already reported only contamination WITHIN the facilities, and that most of their concern was chemical.
Whatever radiological impact will occur will be infinitely eclipsed by the deaths a follow-on war will cause. Let's focus our energy on preventing that.
From the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting:
"Three nuclear sites, including Fordow, had been evacuated some time ago and our enriched uranium stockpile was moved away from these locations, so there is no risk of radiation leakage."
Thomas Keith: Iranian sources now confirm Fordow is intact. Only 2 munitions struck surface-level access points. No deep-penetration, no cascade collapse, no reactor kill.
Fordow was built to withstand nuclear war. A single flyby doesn’t erase hardened bunkers buried 80 meters deep behind reinforced mountain rock.
This wasn’t a successful strike. It was a narrative op. Aimed at markets, voters, and momentum. But the physics of Fordow don’t bend to spin. @iran x.com/iwasnevrhere_/status/193…

TEHRAN, Jun. 22 (MNA) – IRGC says 14 strategic Israeli targets in Haifa and Tel Aviv were hit in the last wave of punitive Iranian strikes, which he called one of the most successful since Iran began pounding the Israeli-occupied territories.Marzieh Rahmani (Mehr News Agency)
From what I read, the strikes against Fordow were largely unsuccessful, with no damage to the actual installations. Similar can be said about Natanz and Isfahan. So this was an attack with limited to no success, that will put #Iran in a situation where they HAVE to respond. This response can easily trigger an open war, maybe even a war declaration (the only thing the Democrats are complaining about).
I gotta say, folks, most of the hot takes on the US bombardment of #Iran--those of my friends/people I respect, of course excepted 😀 --are really embarrassingly ignorant, uninformed, & intellectually unsophisticated.
But that's the state of academia & social media ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
