Over for my lifetime, we were lied to about every war beginning with Vietnam. None were about the Domino effect, wmds, Al-Qaeda cells or nation building. It's always been about controlling resources, particularly oil.

Matisse with a splash of Picasso. Both are by Matisse, the second one appears to be Picasso-esque

The killing of Iranian children during an illegal war is an impeachable offense (not to mention a grave crime) and Congress should really act like it.

15 Republicans in the Senate could end this nightmare before it somehow gets even worse.

Yep.

Pardon the pedantry, but if we are decimating Iran, we are killing one in every ten Iranians. That's what decimating means and that's 9 million people. Assuming this administration is just tossing words and not intent on that much butchery, but given the reality of Trump/Hegseth, one can't be sure.

How the Iran war shows β€˜end times’ religious fervour gripping Washington and Tehran An overlapping belief in end times, or the second coming, underpins much of the motivation in the corridors of power in Washington and in the bunkers where the ayatollahs hide today, writes world affa...

"But there is a madness at the heart of the Trump administration. A religious fanaticism that has its equal only among… the ayatollahs."

'Dopamine Kids' explains why children crave screens and helps them enjoy life instead A mom and science writer offers an operating manual for parents grappling with kids' screen use and cravings for sweets.

"... when you're lost in the infinite scroll where you're like, "do it again, do it again, do it again," that's just dopamine. What's happening is your wanting of the activity, your desire to do the activity, is far far bigger than the pleasure you're receiving from it"

Yeah, Orwell said that. I think it's the opening line of his famed "Homage to Catatonia." In his first novel, "The Road To Cory's Leer," he also wrote, "Some things seem to look good from one end of the bar, but if you get close and there's just lip filler and hair extensions? Run the fuck away..."

He ought to know that. Stan Wawrinka is actually interesting to watch. Too bad he's aging out. Besides Roger Federer and John McEnroe one of the best one-handed back hands the world has ever seen. Too bad one-handed back hands have aged out as well.

Alcaraz is way ahead of everyone else, including Sinner. Alcaraz has an entire suite of of perfectly executed drop-shots to accompany his 100 mph forehands, precision serve, and otherworldly angles. Thereby forcing his opponents to cover far more ground than anyone else. And he almost never misses.

Perhaps his way of longevity, not taking the tour so seriously. You're right, Bublik could beat anyone on a given day.

Wouldn't put it past Trump to have started this war so he can relax his favorite shit-stained chair in Mar-A-Lago and watch it on television, just like he sat back and watched the insurrection on TV.

Reveals nothing.
Stephen Miller is still in charge of DHS and lCE. It will be Mullin that is 'just following orders'.

Dismay as Hegseth urges Latin American allies to join β€˜offense’ against cartels Critics sceptical Pentagon chief’s plan for increased military force – amid rising US intervention – will stop drug gangs

"... Stephen Miller argued that drug cartels can only be defeated with military force."

Military force can't stop supply in a demand driven multi-billion dollar market -- supply always adapts.
No way this is really about drugs, even Miller cannot be this stupid.
