I think I'm going to sign out for a bit. I think too many people here have their head in the sand, and the idiot bravado of the US is going to cost us all dear.

When I was that age it was 'War Games". Sad to say, I have to agree with them.
All that mouldy bread they were eating, and living in a baking hot desert.
Leavitt obviously cos-playing Ri Chun-hee in the White House Briefing. Awful rhetoric delivered with venom and glee.
What a pain.
I am beginning to think the Iran 'situation' is going to turn into a giant Gaza. (And probably Lebanon too).
Just finished reading. Very good. Confirms my suspicion that current US "idea" is basically like those old WWII map-tables with little ships/tanks/planes on - they just push them _there_ and "job done".

My mum keeps telling me that when she meets people when we're together (helping mum out with something) they think I'm her younger brother.

Perhaps they've given up expecting people to read their stuff...
That explains my confusion. An expensive fubar all the same.
Reminds me of those little bags of mixed erasers that WHSmith used to sell in the 80s.
Each? (I have no idea, but $33m for a jet seems low)
I expect they were told that if they didn't support this, Trump would pull the plug on Ukraine.
