Psst, nothing ever happens. How many times in the last year has some end of the end of the world nightmare situation been going on that the left or right freaks out about? A lot.

None of them last more than 2-3 weeks and then it's something else. Remember New Jersey drones? LA fires? Multiple assassinations on Trump? Bridges collapsing? Tarrifs? ICE? Now Iran. In 2 weeks it'll be something more ludicrous and Iran will be forgotten again.
Poll time.

What’ll happen in 2 weeks?

:disagree: Nothing (ever happens)
⏰ Conflict with Mexico escalates
🗑️ (More) shit pops off in Europe
🧩 China successfully commits bioterrorism (again)
:dislike: Other

I’ll bite. I believe in a single state solution. I want to do to you people what you did to White South Africa. Sanction you to death internationally until you become a “multi-racial democracy” with open borders.
Israel was South Africas last friend unironically

What your thinking of instead is a heated diaspora moment
 
I just wish municipal and state level public officials stayed away from foreign affairs. Malibu goes up in flames and Karen Bass is in Ghana of all places. Why?

The federal government, in particular the executive branch, is the explicit entity of foreign affairs and Trump/Vance/Rubio talking to Israel or Russia or the UK is perfectly within their job description.
There is a former councilor for my city who spends his free time sperging on local Facebook groups about Trump and Elon Musk. He got replaced by a young Republican woman who ran on supporting local businesses after COVID. Some of these people are truly insane.
 
I am 52 and in the past year I have learned levels of hatred I never thought possible. If hatred were a richter scale I went from a 2 to a 9.5.

Israel makes me absolutely vibrate with ancient ancestral bloodlust. Every day I pray to a just and wrathful God that they will know vengeance in my lifetime.
I mean… God throwing hell their way because they can’t help but think they know better, or that they can force His hand, is a tale so old it might as well be the running theme of the Old Testament. Even when I was a kid I never really got the Christian Zionism shit. If you believe in all this, it only ever seems to end in ruin or exile.

Bro is taking a chudjak meme as an axiom of history…..
 
All I know is it seems that the bombing worked - those facilities are gonezo.

Iran saving face with a pathetic response is hardly a happening.
I was hoping they'd stfu, but Iran seems suicidal. I've said awhile ago, if they push back I don't forsee an 'invasion' but a combined Israel/US air campaigned that'll make them wish for an invasion.
