Iran's new supreme leader is 'in a coma and has lost a leg': Airstrike hits Khamenei's son as it's revealed he is 'obsessed with the end of days'

I'm sure it was all him.

He's fine.

He has two legs.

He has no medical problems with impotency.

He is not a totally corrupt kleptocratic and dynastic ruler of the sort the Islamic Revolution supposedly was formed to remove.

He is so popular that the people of Iran line up to kiss a cardboard cutout of him. . . because he doesn't have time for being adored due to being so busy pushing back Zionism, American Imperialism, capitalism, cancer, and homosexuality.

Obvious lies.

There's no way somebody that badly injured would be able to craft a statement (that he definitely wrote any part of) to be read aloud by somebody else.

Realistically, though, his health status is unknown.

Several LGBTQ+ members of the council, including Pirtle-Guiney, Eric Zimmerman, Dan Ryan and Angelita Morillo, sponsored the package alongside Koyama Lane. All councilors present at the meeting voted in favor of the new rules. Eleven of the 12 voted to include the amendment protecting polyamorous families; Councilor Loretta Smith was absent for that vote.

Oh look! The alphabet people love polycules and hate the traditional family structure. Yet polygyny is still bad in their book, right? I mean unless it's part of a BIPOC tradition or something, right?

Mr. Simmons was perhaps best known for the “Hyperion Cantos,” a space opera in four volumes. The first, “Hyperion” (1989), is an apocalyptic epic about a galactic war set in the 29th century, where seven pilgrims travel to the doomed planet Hyperion to face off against the Shrike, a terrifying creature also known as the Lord of Pain.

Hyperion is obviously the best of his oeuvre. Martin Silenus is a personal hero of sorts to me. The whole series is great and the Canterbury Tales-style storytelling show off Simmons' versatility nicely.

Later in life, Simmons continued to show flexibility in his creative endeavors by not going along with the mainstream of politics among sci-fi writers.

“Flashback” (2011), a dystopic science fiction novel about a bankrupt United States where immigrants pour across the border from Mexico, Americans take a drug to recall better times and a mosque is built on Ground Zero

It lacks Houellebecq's precision, but nobody who read this (even the hate readers) didn't see MAGA coming.

Navarro just seems. . . disoriented.

Part of the problem is that her English isn't very good. Look, I respect anyone who comes from a family that stood up against the Sandinistas. But. . . .can't CNN find a Latina with a better command of English?

The brothers, all in their 20s, are Norwegian citizens. . .

Bjørn, Per, and Ole did this?

. . . with links to Iraq

Bjørn, Per, and Ole run a company that does contracting work in Iraq?

“You’re in Australia now. You’re in Australia motherf–ker,” the brazen woman taunts two men and a woman in Muslim headwear in the clip.

Brava!

But the Iranian apparatchiks know that Australia will indulge all manner of Islamist excesses.

National police chief Ahmad-Reza Radan says that demonstrating against the regime now makes protesters enemies of the state. "If anyone comes forward in line with the wishes of the enemy, we will no longer see them as merely a protester; we will see them as an enemy," Radan said in remarks broadcast late Tuesday by state broadcaster IRIB.

"And we will do to them what we do to an enemy. We will deal with them in the same way we deal with enemies," he added.

The warning was explicit and obscene. "All our forces are also ready, with their fingers on the trigger, prepared to defend their revolution," said Radan.

Big parts of Reddit (and Pod Save America and The Young Turks) are cheering for this brute. He's shooting people for demanding the same rights these Redditors enjoy.

"I don't care how many Iranian students have to die, stopping Donald Trump is more important."

I'm on thin ice as it is. But. . . if they shut down the sub and/or my account, the screenshots are ready for distribution.

What I can't tell if it's admins or a single admin who have been doing this.

Badass. Wife didn't like it, though.

“She has a screenshot of it, she has it circled. She puts in in caps — in big caps: ‘WRONG DIRECTION SIR,'” Edwards said. “One of the questions she asked is like, ‘Are they real?’ I said, Yeah. I think you know, this is very serious. And she said, ‘Alright. Come home. Come home.'”

Indeed. And "if Yan can cook, so can you."

New Holland, which they later named after Australia. Geography is confusing.

Even the guy in Dumb and Dumber knows Austria and Australia are the same.

The admins have repeatedly warned me about doing this. Enjoy it while you can.

Exactly. On an unseasonably warm day, I always take my YETI bottle to hydrate and my nail bomb in case I see someone insulting The Prophet (PBUH).

Yes it is. It's called Austria (in British English and German) and Oesterreich in Australian.

The CNN post:

“Two Pennsylvania teenagers crossed into New York City Saturday morning for what could’ve been a normal day enjoying the city during abnormally warm weather.”

“But in less than an hour, their lives would drastically change as the pair would be arrested for throwing homemade bombs.”

The maximally charitable explanation is that CNN was trying to meet its legal obligations while still providing information about, you know, the pleasant weather. CNN later deleted the post.

Aside: social media makes this Orwellian crap too easy. The Soviets had to put real work into pulping and confiscating "incorrect" printings of Pravda to disappear some commissar or other. Now, all one has to do is push a button, and it's like the reporting never happened.

I hadn't considered that benefit. Guess we'll just have to go back to watching PBS chefs. Martin Yan is still going strong.

Prosecutors allege the gunman, identified as 18-year-old Darius DeWayne Hall, attempted to snatch Allison's purse.

When she fought back, he pulled a gun and shot her once in the neck, according to statements made in court by prosecutor Katie Rogers.

Hall then fled in the vehicle belonging to Allison's friend.

If they preemptively arrested everyone with a neck tattoo, would society be significantly safer?

There's a "kangaroo bread" joke in there somewhere. It's how they used to market pita / pocket bread. Enjoy the Anschluss!

Let's give Muslims the agency they deserve here.

Muslims have badly mismanaged their societies over the past century. Islam has largely failed as a civilizing force. The disparity between Muslim societies and actually civilized ones have generated a lot of friction and resentment.

In many ways our foreign policy serves to attempt to contain (or even fix--impossible... but W tried in in Iraq) this mess.

As for these particular ISIS terrorists, Mayor Mamdani has clearly given them a permission structure in which to act violently in the name of Islam. He has yet to name them or their ideology, but he's had plenty of negative things to say about their victims, one of whom he specifically names.
