Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

If Washington’s participation in Israel’s June 2025 war with Iran elevated U.S. military force to a perfectly viable instrument of the United States’ Iran policy, the success of current talks would signal the formal undoing of that logic. But should the failure of talks pave the way for another full-scale war, the United States and Israel will be fighting an Iran vastly different from June. For the Iran of today appears to have made its peace with the grim conclusion that while a decisive slog with Israel and the United States is sure to be agonizing, it is preferable to the recurring attrition of repeated wars and a chronic strategic vulnerability that only emboldens adversaries to target Iran and its regional allies.

Looks like it was a good thing for Ukraine to practice with the NATO fascists after all. Russia proved it is the aggressor and you can't accept it because you like the nasty warm piss filled Kool Aid Putin prepared for you. As the pedo rapist Trump would say, "That is very sad."

Speaking of Trump, can you believe Russia sponsored that piece of shit? The whole world is worse off because Russia is a kleptocracy hell bent on making money off the suffering of humans.

I am glad you don't claim morality as it is very clear you can't pick between the lesser of evils in a given situation. That is modern life, it sucks. Get used to it.

Russia could give two shits about its people. The US might be the most murderous, but no one competes with Russia sacrificing its own people in war and in peacetime. Once again, garbage people in the government.

I don't think you are infected with propaganda, I know you are. Not even questioning that for a second bringing up every bullshit Russian talking point like it is the gospel of Jesus Fucking Christ.

I love the Russian people, they deserve far better than they get, but you wouldn't know it after talking to bozos like you. No country on Earth is worthy of humanity. Certainly not the US, China, or Russia. Three fascist nations that are all guilty as charged.

The problem with you is you are one not fucking bit objective. You have picked your stupid team. Now go lie in the flea ridden bed you have chosen.

Yeah. Not a shred of rational thought left in you. Pure righteousness. I'm glad we had this conversation so that other people could see it. You're a lost cause.

Sure, go take your Russian propaganda and stick it all the way up your backside you fascist apologist.
