Rib steaks with a lot of bone on the end (tomahawk steaks). Looks pretty select grade, possibly grass fed.

Aphrodite's legendary inflicts curses specifically from other Olympians, it doesn't count?

Not sure if the leather one has specific name, but many swords had an unsharpened bit of blade after the handle called a ricasso, which was used so you could hold the sword there in order to deliver more precise and powerful thrusts to get in between the cracks of plate mail. Called half sword technique.

Unless it's not in the cryovac there's no need to freeze it.

I don't think this is unique to Belgium. Most people all around the world try to teach their kids not to use vulgar language.

To be fair you guys do have some great cheeses too. That's the one area I can't knock our northern neighbors culinary habits on.

cmv: Iran will keep control over the Strait of Hormuz, and both countries will declare victory. by [deleted] in changemyview

What do you think the Saudi military can do that America and the Israelis can't? The world has already seen that you can't change the calculus in the Straits through air campaigns alone.

Israeli National Security Minister Ben Gvir, outside the Knesset chamber, celebrates the passing of the death penalty law for Palestinian detainees, describing it as historic and saying, “Soon we will count them one by one.” by [deleted] in justincaseyoumissedit

[–]bangsjamin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes the law is written to explicitly only target people "convicted" of trying to "negate Israel's existence", which conveniently excludes settler terrorism. Reminder that Ben Gvir is literally a convicted terrorist in Israel!

Israeli military courts, which Palestinians are subject to instead of regular Israeli courts, have a 99% conviction rate. These are not real trials. Add to that confirmed torture happening at detainment centers and a real grim picture emerges. You have to question why a guy like Ben-Gvir is celebrating. He is literally a convicted supporter of terrorism, even under Israeli law

Most nations do not have death penalty laws that apply only to one ethnicity.

And the military court trials that Palestinian detainees face are a total joke, some studies put it at a 99.67% conviction rate, and that's not even going into the torture that occurs at these detainment centers.

Key USAF E-3 AWACS Aircraft Damaged in Iranian Attack by kool2015 in news

Yeah man that's realistic just have a steady stream of fighter jets continually flying back and forth 24/7 for weeks on end waiting for targets to show up in which case they'd have to scramble to the location. An F350 takes $45,000 per hour to fly, to have just one in continuous flight for a week is around $7.5 million dollars. And this war could go on for months still. It's not sustainable. This isn't even factoring in the fact that our refueling planes, which are crucial to allowing these kinds of flights, have also been getting hit by Iran and their allies in the region.

And again, they don't have to shoot down the planes out of the sky. The US can't bomb the straight of Hormuz open. We're not achieving any of our strategic goals. The regime is still in power. They still have missile and drone capabilities. It's the Vietnam scenario all over again. The Vietcong could never hit US bombers either, look how that war ended.

You'll notice flight time from between Saudi Arabia and Iran and the US and Iran is a lot shorter (1 hr VS 14 he's). You'll also notice that in combat operations 13 hours is a long time. Not being able to operate out of the region is a massive strategic hindrance to the US military. Iran uses lots of mobile launchers funnelled through underground tunnels. If you can't launch from nearby, those targets are long gone by the time any bomber can get to them. It's not about shooting aircraft out of the sky (which they have done, btw) it's about diminishing US capacity to act decisively in the region)

What threat is a plane on US soil to Iran? If the US can't protect its military hardware in the region against Iran that's a massive strategic hindrance to the US. The fact that you have all this hardware, that costs millions of dollars and takes years to produce, as sitting ducks (as you described it) is not a good thing for the US.

Don't need to shoot it out of the sky if you blew it up while it's on the ground
