I would unironically fully support a war with Iran if all we did was draw dicks in their airspace.

The Ayatollah would probably order the sky burned if there were just a bunch of dicks and tits above Iran

So someone (allegedly) launched a drone attack on Saudi Oil pumping stations. https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2019/05/14/oil-jumps-as-saudi-energy-minister-reports-drone-terrorism-against-pipeline.html Most likely from Yemen.

Robert Evans also has another good podcast called Behind the Bastards which borrows/influences ICHH, but seems less serious in tone. Also he has cordial twitter exchanges with Dan Carlin which sparks dreams of a crossover episode with Hardcore History.

It's pretty piecemeal vs anything with a strategic plan that seems discernable. Or maybe someone in the IRG decided to be the wild card today.

Curious how far up Graham's rear end Putin's money-hand is because holy poo poo has that guy gone turbo-boot-licker. Like, yeah, Republican, so I get it, that's going to happen. To that degree though just pings my 'What the gently caress?' radar.

We saw this with the ACA and the sequester and cutting social security and medicare.

The Taliban literally didn't exist until '94, long after the Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan. We absolutely funded Mujaheddin who subsequently joined up with the Taliban though, and it's really little different than what Iran is doing in Yemen on a substantial level. Joe Biden blows but frankly I'd take Jeb! over Trump any day of the week so my requirements for a contender amount to "is breathing"

The only way he's losing his seat is if he gets primaried. The only way he gets primaried is if Trump tweets to primary him. There are tons of clips of Graham making GBS threads all over Trump in 2016. Trump's cheddarbrain loves to remember stuff like that. So Graham, being a shitbag that wants to get reelected, has to suck Donnie's Toad really, really hard. It's basically that simple, really. It's not foreign money that's making Graham an idiot hellfucker, it's that he has to cozy up to Trump to make up for 2016.

There's an argument to be made for a Biden win just packing poo poo in harder to make it explode that much stronger when the next fascist demagogue takes the reins of the Republican party by being even more loudly bigoted and promising more suffering for minorities. If it comes down to those two ancient, rich, white assholes I'll vote Biden but I'll be getting a passport the next day.

The Iron Rose posted:The Taliban literally didn't exist until '94, long after the Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan. The other major misconception is that we gave money to Bin Laden. No, he was running around Afghanistan with his own money, and a big part of why he founded Al Qaeda was that he was mad that we were involved in the conflict.
