Wouldn't be shocked if right as the removal is about to happen, all of a sudden "ISIS" groups start a wave of attacks all over Iraq. The tip-off will be if the USA makes a big show of "withdrawing our lovely troops." Doesn't matter if the show is made out to be a good or bad thing. Just matters that a big deal is made in the media, and that it then gets turned into Iraq "begging" the USA to come back. This time with huge permanent bases and even more control over the Iraqi government. Or have the IOF conveniently be the ones to take the lead while the USA pretend that it can't get all the supplies back in time. Would be useful for a quick turn of "popular" support in favor of the IOF and get all the attention away from Palestine (and further paint the pro-Palestine protests as "supporting terror").

Might not be the most convenient option depending on your personal use-case, but have you considered a dedicated audio device? I personally got a refurbished LG V30 because I came across a YT vid while looking for cheap options for having a dedicated "mp3" player to keep archived/favorite episode of podcasts, audiobooks, and music. Seems there is a decent fanbase of folks that love the 3.5mm DAC that phone has (of course has Bluetooth too). It also has microSD slot. Got a 512GB card (can use up to 2TB which I might do at some point). Most of the music I have on it is flac where possible. I keep it offline and just transfer files via USB, but could use wifi to sync with PC if I wanted to at some point. Shit lasts a pretty long time with wifi/bluetooth off only using the headphone jack (helps that the battery was replaced by the refurb).

There are also lots of cheaper Android-based players (I got one before I came across the vid on the V30) but can have some amount of malware and no easy access to their firmware or communities that can advise custom ROMs to safely flash something clean and/or newer. When I got my no-name device I just side-loaded apks to avoid giving access to my Google account (though I plan to keep my V30 offline after I got the last updates for the OS and LG apps). I just wanted to have something that I only use for local audio and just keep it in my car or backpack and have access to the three apps I like (Musicolet for music, Podcast Addict for podcasts, and Smart AudioBook Player for my audiobooks).

Hezbollah would be fools to hand over any weapons (not even pocket knives). They should triple-down on getting more in response. They were the only faction in Lebanon to firmly and actively fight the genocide in a real way. If they hadn't been hit as hard as they have been, it would have been great add to the Iranian response of waves of missiles with whatever they could. Even if not as much or as big (size of weapons), would mean even more Iron Dome and IOF personnel burned.

They still did so much and have paid in blood, and I hope that they can build back enough to stand against the Lebanese government if needed. And the Lebanese government should really be more concerned with how the IOF has treated Syria, and wake the fuck up. Disarming is not the answer to the IOF, as they will just invade/attack anyway.

This is the only other site I could find with the same title. https://www.tasnimnews.com/en/news/2025/06/20/3338600/multi-dimensional-cyber-operation-destroys-israel-s-internal-communication-infrastructure

Just used unshorten.me on the link from OP, and it seems to go to the site you found.

Thanks for the reply!

I am very lacking in global trade (might need an ELIA5). But what are they concerned about? If stuff can't go to the US, how does it mean they just automatically go to the EU? Wouldn't those items need to be bought by companies/individuals in the EU in the first place?

Loving how the pro-violent bullfighting folks are acting as if it bans the whole thing. /s Shit would just ban the killing and maiming parts along with time limits for the bulls. If anything it seems like not being allowed to spear the bull would make their sport much more skill based. Like it is more impressive to deal with a pissed off/stress out bull that has no say in the matter. It seems that even if it wasn't done now, that the younger gens that already don't like it would be doing it once they are in power.

They mention that he might have been having a mental health crisis. Given the massive amount of various branches of pigs present. I am shocked that he is alive. Main point being that there is no excuse for literally everyone that has been murdered by pigs while having mental health episodes (especially when they showed up after a relative/caregiver tried calling 911 just to help them for explicitly for a mental health crisis). So many people murdered because pigs are taught to "fear for their lives" above everything. Still shocked that one of them didn't panic pop a round and set off just everyone (again like we see so often).

Gotta keep backing those "moderate rebels" to keep folks from being able to start being a threat to USA interests with ideas of being independent.

On a more serious note. All the "chaos" being caused by Musk, Trump, and all of the rest means that all leftist orgs, parties, and even just individuals should be going in hard to win hearts and minds now. If the empire is going to hand us such perfect chances, then we should be taking any and all of them. So many of the libs are going around speaking of "organizing" but will just keep allowing the next cycle and further embolden the far-right/fascists.

Not calling for adventurism shit. But the contradictions of what the centrists/libs are coming back on them faster and harder than any time in my life. Their leaders have been shown to care more about finding reasons to never use power than to do anything they speak of to the masses come every election cycle. The masses that are sympathetic to stuff leftists talk about, but fear sudden change are now having to deal with it anyway.

I may just be dumb and overly hopeful in what some of the shit happening can be turned into. Would rather get razzed on here for it, and at least know I can learn from it.

Kind of feels like a US effort to work Japan into doing what the MIC and other war hawks want. Use fear to get mass manufactured consent like after 9/11 and the recent "news" pieces from Syria and that New Orleans crime scene (or the 40 beheaded babies).
