America has been trying to make peace with Iran for 40 years. Trump keeps trying to negotiate some kind of deal.

Internally, the regime is fighting an insurgency. There are various armed factions, and it's just a matter of making sure that whoever wins decides to not be a nuclear sponsor of terrorism (or, sponsor of the "wrong" terrorists if you want to be cynical).

Militarily, the only hope the IRGC has is that America gives up. Iran has smaller mountains than Afghanistan, and a weaker military than Iraq had. An occupation will succeed if America decides to use its resources that way. The insurgencies in Iraq were being paid for with Iranian oil, so that won't be a problem anymore.

This person has a different definition of love than I've ever heard.

Anthropomorphized statistics trapped in a box respond affirmatively to everything. If they weren't trapped in a box, they wouldn't.

If you let your elementary school kids walk to school these days, someone might call CPS on you.

ok, I'm not sure what you were saying then.

Reliability is a difficult engineering problem.

Because the 18th season of Igloo Bachelor is coming out next week.

We can also add that in 99% of the cases (including here) calling them "Nazis" is just a rhetorical technique, not an actual analytical comparison.

The Nazis and Iranians have in common that they both breath oxygen and drink water, but so do you.

I don't think it's cost effective to harden all equipment to withstand tornadoes.

The thing missing from the story is data. Are the number of outages increasing or decreasing? How many of the outages were due to negligence (apparently less than 10%)?

The only thing worth getting outraged about here is the lack of data.

They don't want to kill the Jews, they want to control Israel. There's a huge difference.

There's a fairly strong Jewish community living in Iran.

In terms of killing power, the IRGC has the guns. But the only reason anyone follows them is because they have a cleric at the top, even if that cleric is bad or doesn't make decisions. In this way they are similar to Japan in WW2. In fact, Japanese commentators have made the comparison between modern day Iran and Japan during the Pacific War.

It's amazing how much you think you know without looking up data.

You information is bad, and it makes you write ignorant things.

I don't think Iran is taking a "kill them all" approach. There are a lot of Jews living more-or-less well in Iran.

You said "US weapons is Billions worse off." Obviously you know the numbers, you wouldn't just make that up, right?

Bullshit, you did make that up. You don't know how many extra billions US weapons are making because of this war.

Well, I would like to be compensated for the times my work got imported into AI, too.

You should stop posting on the law until you understand it better. Go watch some lawyer videos on fair use or something. The Wikipedia article is good. Your concept is wrong.

Doesn't Venmo do that?
