"Protect" does not mean "it is impossible for you to get it". It means "it is less likely you will get it". You know that but you just want to rant and lie as it somehow makes you feel better. You are a sick loser.

I don't know what media you are watching, but every report I have seen is pointing out how unlikely spread of this will be. And this is reports from a variety of politically leaning media so it isn't even a polarizing issue.

When are when are we going to see American ships in the Caspian Sea?

Americans forces stationed in Afghanistan couldn't stop things getting across the border in to Afghanistan, so how successful do you think they're going to be when they're not even in the country?

As long as the US blockades the Straits of Hormuz, so will Iran. Iran has more tolerance to pain than American voters do. Today's news: Trump chickened out again and didn't attack Iran.

JUDGE: The jury has sent a question and the answer is no, the death penalty is not "available for both sides" please return to the jury room and limit your consideration to civil damages.

JUDGE: No, a “light maiming” is also not acceptable, nor is “getting medieval on their asses.” Please constrain yourself to statutes approved by this court.

JUDGE: A further follow-up question from the jury, and no we cannot 'dunk them in a lake and let God decide, like they used to do with witches'. That has not been considered a valid means of determining guilt for several centuries at least.

JUDGE: The jury has sent another question and the answer, again, is no. "Excommunicado" is not real - that's only a thing in the John Wick universe. Civil penalties DO NOT encompass revoking all protections under the law for Mr Altman and Mr Musk.

JUDGE: Court reporter, please note that the jury's latest request, quote, can we let them hang by their thumbs for a few hours, end quote, is also denied.

I'm all for criticising Israel; what they've done in Gaza is disproportionate and probably amounts to war crimes. This doesn't change the fact that there is widespread left wing antisemitism. See for example the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) report on Labour antisemitism, published in October 2020, that found the Labour Party had committed unlawful acts of discrimination and harassment against Jewish members, highlighting serious failings in its handling of antisemitism complaints and political interference in the process. The former leader of the Labour Party who wanted to be prime minister continues to downplay it and deny there was a problem. AmiMojo has defended the man on this site and posted on multiple occasions that demonstrate his position. Many people in the UK are using Jewish people as a proxy for Israel and there's been a rise of violent antisemitic hate crimes against them. They don't deserve to live in fear, but the leaders of left wing parties in the UK will not speak out, just like AmiMoJo won't either.

Demonstrably wrong:

You and your leftwing antisemitic claptrap. Are you ready to admit yet that Israel is also in an existential struggle against organisations on all sides hellbent on the genocide of Israel, funding by a state whose official policy is the genocide of Israel (that's Iran, if you're wondering)? When are you going to call them out for their actions?

Don't get me wrong, while I support Israel's right to defend itself, the way it's gone about it in Gaza is wrong. But unlike you, that doesn't mean I'm going to ignore the realities of both sides of this complicated and horrific conflict.

It's people like you who are fuelling the rise of antisemitism. That's also wrong.

s/blockage/blockade/g

Fucking autocorrect.

The US has tried to blockage a little island off the coast of Florida for over 60 years without success. North Korea has sticking the finger up for even longer. I can't imagine the US will succeed against a country of 1.6 million km^2 and 92 million people the other side of the world where the US has limited resources simply by trying to blockage them. The US couldn't keep the neighbouring Afghanistan under control with boots on the ground FFS.

And they will still threaten the Straits of Hormuz and thus cause economical problems for the rest of the world, including the US. We're in the age of cheap drones. Ukraine chased off the Russian navy. It looks like the US navy is scared to get involved in opening of the straits and protecting shipping.

And yet Iran would still threaten the Straits of Hormuz and force prices and inflation up for ordinary Americans. Iran has a different criteria for success. Trump is behaving like Putin prior to Feb 2022, and finding out it doesn't work. You can't win just by bombing, something we've known since WW2. Unless you're proposing using nukes, but that would bring isolation and more costs on the US.

Yet somehow they've demonstrated the limits of US power. Donald Trump is now stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Well done, but you appear to be in the minority. Maybe you havenâ(TM)t used other tools much?

You donâ(TM)t need to stand there holding the plug while itâ(TM)s charging! I canâ(TM)t imagine it taking more than a moment to plug it in.

I saw a Tesla with Dutch plates on it when I was in Serbia last summer. Thatâ(TM)s a long way from home (nearly 2,000 km) in a less developed country. It seems some people arenâ(TM)t worried about long haul in Europe either.
