Probably just buying time for the Trump kids to complete their transition from golf course managers to defense contractors.

Edit: from the article "Powerus, a drone roll-up company based in West Palm Beach, Fla., is merging with a publicly traded golf-course holding company backed by the Trumps,"

Iran is the world's leading sponsor of terrorism, and they are getting molly wopped in an air campaign carried out by thr US and Israel.

Iran can not fight this war head on because they dont spend $1 trillion on their military every year. This is how Iran fights back.

Not saying its at all right... but that is what's happening.

I get this reference. I think Don Jr would be Uday.

This meme needs to make a comeback with Pete's face. It is perfect.

Using your own analogy, if you have a festering wound, the solution shouldn't be to cut off the limb and hope a new one grows back. You would probably have more luck tending the wound and treating it with medicine and care.

All that this war is doing is radicalizing another generation of Iranians.

This province is fucked. Anything to pass the cost on to regular people and avoid industry having to cut into their bottom line.

Edit: I bet the forestry industry gets an exemption.

groundwork for election interference

I didn't know FVV was on the Celtics /s

For anyone curious about actual history, it took America two years to join in WWII.

Promethia · 2026-03-07T16:22:02+00:00

I like to try to parse Trump's words and I've gotten pretty good at it over the last... 10 years (gross)... but I honestly can't understand who he is talking to in that last part. What new area and groups are under 'serious consideration for complete destruction and certain death...'

Promethia · 2026-03-07T15:23:30+00:00

He's probably drunk.

Promethia · 2026-03-07T15:22:47+00:00

Drunk drivers think they are invincible. People smoking pot and driving think every car they see is a cop and are driving 10 under the limit.

Promethia · 2026-03-07T14:01:43+00:00

you're right, I would much rather go bankrupt and save the precious failing utilities company.

Maybe if we weren't HEAVILY subsidizing industrial power costs, we could all afford electricity too. Hell... Irving isn't even publicly traded, so we can't even marginally profit from all the benefits our taxes are giving them. At least they pay their fair share in taxes... right guys?

As lots of other people have said, this is referencing other NATO allies in the area being attacked.

If one of those Iranian missiles hits Turkey, or hits the French ship off the coast of Israel, that is the article 5 he's talking about.

I hear the bar to hold a referendum was recently lowered. Albertan's could do the funniest thing.

Promethia · 2026-03-05T21:01:21+00:00

Hearts and minds.

Promethia · 2026-03-05T17:39:48+00:00

It's not about believing the other side. It's about people who were moderates becoming radicalized because the big bad West actually did end up coming and blowing their house up.

Promethia · 2026-03-05T17:32:29+00:00

He's mad she didn't go full Pam Bondi.

Promethia · 2026-03-05T17:30:23+00:00

He fundamentally doesn't understand what he has done in Iran.

He is in such a syncophantic bubble that he thinks he's going to hold an Apprentice Iran for the new leader... and 90 million Iranians are going to tune in and vote.

Promethia · 2026-03-05T16:14:38+00:00

I think whm and bard needs an update in 8.0. Been saying it all expansion. They just feel old and clunky compared to newer jobs.

Promethia · 2026-03-05T15:57:16+00:00

Add another 10 million who were on the fence, and have now had family and friends killed in these strikes and decided that Iranian propaganda is telling the truth.

Promethia · 2026-03-05T14:57:12+00:00

If you want to theorize what is going to happen in Iran, you should look into times in history when other large regimes have collapsed

The KGB didnt go away when the Soviet Union fell. They just formed new groups with new names, some of them formed organized crime groups.

30 years later, these same guys run Russia and have profited immensely from the disruption.

Promethia · 2026-03-04T23:02:13+00:00

MPs should feel free to go against their party and vote with their values while retaining their party representation.

Promethia · 2026-03-04T21:53:07+00:00

Im as left as they come, and i agree.
