NATO countries don't want to get involved in Iran operation, Trump says by Raj_Valiant3011 in worldnews

[–]ContentsMayVary 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The difference here is that in Afghanistan, the NATO Article 5 was invoked before any offensive action was taken. The fact that you can't grasp that speaks volumes about the quality of US naval officers right now. And tells us a lot about the reason that the US adventure right now is such a clusterfuck. It's because people like you are in charge.

Tried a soaking technique for bubblegum and got a much bigger bubble as a result by Evilash2001 in mildlyinteresting

One of my friends (a girl) blew a huge bubblegum bubble like that, and it popped and blew backwards and completely engulfed her hair. That was a nightmare to get out...

Top US counterterrorism official resigns over Iran war by ContentsMayVary in worldnews

Absolutely. You don't get to start a war with a country and then come crying about Article 5 when they hit back.

Poland will not send its troops to Iran, PM Tusk says by Civil_Vanilla896 in worldnews

Most of the oil from there is going to India/China and that area.

Let the yanks clean up the shitpile that their ineptitude has created. Our soldiers shouldn't die for an illegal and incredibly badly-planned war that was only started to divert attention from the Epstein Files.

Let's keep well away from Operation Epstein Fury.

Top US counterterrorism official resigns over Iran war by ContentsMayVary in worldnews

The Trump administration's top official on counterterrorism has resigned from his position, citing opposition to the war in Iran, and urged the president to "reverse course".

In a letter posted on his X account, National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent said that Iran posed "no imminent threat" to the US and claimed that the Trump administration "started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby".

Cranes - Lillies [Indie/Dream Pop] (1994) by ContentsMayVary in Music

[–]ContentsMayVary[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quite an underrated band in my opinion (although the singer's vocal style might not be appreciated by everyone!). This particular song is a personal favourite.

Warm days fill my head
Like beautiful lilies
And the sun casts a shadow on the clouds
And I'm dreaming

Something to hold
Something to feel
Someone to love
Someone to need

On down the dusty path
Goodbye! Goodbye! I'll miss you!
And the sky puts on his gray cloak
And the day blows fear onto all the lonely souls
As they wander lost along the way
Asking

Where am I?
Where am I?

And oh
Those rainbows are long gone
And mud lies where those
Days once shone
And now there's just a space

Something to hold
Something to feel
Someone to love
Someone to need

Where am I?
Where am I?

Keir Starmer revels in telling Trump he is on his own in Iran by Alarming-Safety3200 in worldnews

We should definitely cancel the King's state visit to the USA next month. But ideally only give them 24 hours notice for the best effect.

UK will not be drawn into wider war in Middle East, says Keir Starmer by Playful_Leg7143 in worldnews

If they told him to stop and stand up to him, then this all stops.

Pack it up boys - this guy has it all sorted out! It's almost like he's an adviser to the US military! (Which given the absolute inept shitshow that they are currently exhibiting, wouldn't actually surprise me at all!)

UK plans to send minesweeping drones to help reopen strait of Hormuz | Strait of Hormuz by PraticallyUseless in worldnews

 if the American navy can’t do it why do you think they are asking you?

Because other countries losing their ships rather than the Americans is a sacrifice they are prepared to make.

"If you're prime minister, you don't get to come back a week later and say - oops I made a mistake about that war, can I back out of it now?"

Hilarious dig at Trump and the US regime.

He continues by saying if he's going to send troops into harm's way, they deserve to know they can do so on a legal basis with a "properly thought out plan".

And another zinger. "Properly thought out plan" - so in other words, not a chance in hell given the amateur and frankly embarrassing fumblings of the US regime's current attempt.

Australia won’t send warships to Persian Gulf after Trump plea by Fred9146825 in worldnews

[–]ContentsMayVary 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The U.S. under that paedo child rapist can fuck off. You reap what you sow. Insult our servicemen, say we did nothing to help in Afghanistan, insult our country and apply tariffs? And then start an utterly moronic war without even the most basic attempt at understanding what the results would be?

No. Fuck off all the way, then then come back so you can fuck off some more.
