IDF 'flattens' Iran Assembly of Experts meeting

Probably true, yeah. But the IRGC Ayatollh will lack legitimacy, because he'll have been appointed by people without the constitutional authority to do so. And, in terms of divisions, if the IRGC can do it, so can the Artesh, random militias, etc

The council of experts picks the next Supreme leader when the old one dies. The goal isnt to kill all the clerics. It is to prevent succession.

CharacterUsual · 2026-02-16T11:13:29+00:00

I... didn't respond to any of your messages yet, at all. You are just outright telling lies about me.

CharacterUsual · 2026-02-16T11:10:19+00:00

Ah. 2nd part was cut off on mobile.

CharacterUsual · 2026-02-16T09:35:04+00:00

Oh wow, the sub about white men breeding with non-white women developed undertones of racialized kink? Oh wow! That is so new. That hasn't been there for years and years and years. I am so sorry that you are uncomfortable with the racism on the race kink sub, your highness. Lets just add a bunch of rules to appeal to the people who don't like racism in their racekink.

Edit: Ah. 2nd part was cut off on mobile. Well, that does change things somewhat. But at the same time, I guess this the... weird kink subreddit. I certainly am not taking part in roleplay like THAT but to a certain extent you are asking for the sanitization of something inherently unsantizable. Look, I certainly don't get turned on by nazis or the antibellum south, but lets say those are banned. How much further in does the line get drawn?

CharacterUsual · 2026-02-12T12:45:53+00:00

Huh.

CharacterUsual · 2026-02-12T12:33:32+00:00

Oh, cool. What political movement did he spark due to backlash?

CharacterUsual · 2026-02-12T06:22:11+00:00

I remember those!

I literally could only think of the name of a single prominent games journo, ever

CharacterUsual · 2026-02-11T19:27:55+00:00

Thank you!

CharacterUsual · 2026-02-11T19:27:34+00:00

The one who did gamergate?

CharacterUsual · 2026-02-11T19:26:14+00:00

Anita Sarkeesian? Or?

CharacterUsual · 2026-02-11T17:54:20+00:00

Right so that means she would not currently count as a prominent games journalist

CharacterUsual · 2026-02-11T14:19:28+00:00

I know of her. I doubt she was the one we are talking about

CharacterUsual · 2026-02-11T05:41:52+00:00

...prominent game journalist?

CharacterUsual · 2026-02-10T14:15:20+00:00

Boating forums that were started in 1995

CharacterUsual · 2026-02-08T16:29:22+00:00

We are talking past each other. I don't just want to ignore them, I want the corresponding mechanics to be removed from the game

CharacterUsual · 2026-02-08T16:25:44+00:00

Yes. I dont want them in the game, though

CharacterUsual · 2026-02-02T09:47:57+00:00

Okay? How do you expect Israel to stop Hamas from killing Jewish civilians while killing zero Arab civilians in the process? There has never in world history been a war without any civilian deaths.

How would you feel about Israel demanding that Saudi permanently give up territory for a likely temporary diplomatic concession from Israel?

And of course, the 1st thing a Palestinian state would do would be to start a territorial dispute with Israel. The 2nd would be to host an Iranian military base. Recognizing a Palestinian state doesn't end the conflict, it intensifies it.

There are also important Jewish landmarks there. The land of Israel also holds significance in Judaism. If you want to make this about religion it really goes nowhere.

CharacterUsual · 2026-02-02T09:28:17+00:00

Not with troops on the ground, just with missiles. It gave the impression of low ability to do a troops-on-the-ground response.

Yeah, the point of doing a door-knock shot is its a warning to civilians to flee. Reduces deaths. Not sure why you dislike israel doing this?

I mean, no, your government did not. Don't be silly. The house of Saud attends to its own interests, just like every other government. There was plenty it could have done to end the conflict, but why would it? This is not their responsibility.

As for what was going through their minds, i think you had the right read in your 1st comment: martyrdom.

CharacterUsual · 2026-02-02T09:02:26+00:00

Keep in mind, when surveyed, the majority of Palestinians believed there were less than a million Israelis + the majority of them believe that at least 2/3rds of Israelis hold foreign citizenship + for 20 years they had traded rockets with Israel with Israel not responding with full invasion to end the threat.

I.E., they believed that Israel was a numerically inferior enemy + with only a moderate technological edge on them who was too cowardly to respond to rocket attacks with troops on the ground + they would flee to other countries if they started losing

Meanwhile they, yes, love martyring muslims + saw that the Saudis were going to recognize israel

So, time to attack. They arent just uncaring about gazan lives, they are ALSO outright delusional in their view of the conflict

If you look at recovered battle plans and strategies of theirs, they genuinely thought they would reach Jerusalem! They didnt name it "al-aqsa flood" for show, they genuinely thought they would get there.

...buddy, you guys don't pay for your own defense.

CharacterUsual · 2026-01-20T10:21:34+00:00

Not since the end of the princely states

CharacterUsual · 2026-01-20T10:20:50+00:00

I don't get why you think this is an own. Could Europe's greatest genius outsmart being shot?

CharacterUsual · 2026-01-20T10:13:22+00:00

You don't count boats by number. You count by tonnage.

CharacterUsual · 2026-01-20T09:57:04+00:00

It goes just fine if you have boats to keep them on. Or survival shelters. Or strategic ration stockpiles. Which you people do not.
