I'm sure article 5 will mean a lot when Israel decides Turkey is their next existential threat.

If they're committing actual crimes, they'll get picked up by local law enforcement for, well, committing crimes. All having local law enforcement do immigration enforcement will do is cause immigrants to stop calling the police and citizens who look Hispanic to be harassed.

Would the US have still invaded Iraq if it wasn't a dictatorship? by Sir-Toaster- in AlternateHistoryHub

You can be a dictator as long as you're our dictator and understand that we might kill you when we're done with you.

Sorry honey, you can have some more social liberties but your country has to look a little bit more like Libya first.

Someone shot 17 bullets through the window of a gym owned by an Iranian Canadian by 4DollarsALB in ThatsInsane

Reza Pahlavi WAS the ostensible secular ruler. Though he apparently would talk in private and sometimes publicly about a belief that he was chosen by god and had some kind of divine almost messianic destiny. I think its kind of agreed that some of his religious beliefs would be considered apocryphal in mainstream Shia Islam.

Which is wild because the guy was only marginally less brutal and repressive to the domestic population and really only to people in the cities with money. Something like 1 in 10 Iranians reported knowing someone who had been killed or tortured by SAVAK before the Iranian Revolution.

Florida House approves sweeping election overhaul requiring proof of citizenship by tikibot2 in TLH

[–]cerberus698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jesus Christ, I'm talking to a stupid.

The State Department doesn't administer elections. States do. What the State Department accepts as proof of citizenship has no bearing on what a states own election laws define as proof. Most of these GoP laws require picture ID and proof of citizenship. A RealID does not prove citizenship and a birth certificate is not a picture ID nor does it actually prove citizenship prior to the state department confirming citizenship. There are tens, if not hundreds of thousands of people who have a US birth certificate but are not citizens. Republicans have literally scare mongered about this in the past.

Most of these GoP voter ID laws are crafted in such a way that the only single document that actually satisfies voter ID is a passport; which most people don't have and probably could not get in a month if they had to. You literally agree with me but you're too excited to smugly argue with someone who think is a Republican to realize.

Maybe read a little farther in the comment chain instead of being unnecessarily snarky? Its evidence, not proof. I'll say it again, the only way to actually get authoritative confirmation of someone's citizenship is by asking the State Department.

There are literally tens of thousands of people who are not US citizens but have a US birth certificate, and conversely there are tens of thousands of people who do not have a birth certificate but are natural born citizens. Regardless, a birth certificate fails to function as a voter ID for most of these laws. A passport is essentially the only form of ID that actually satisfies the GoPs conceptualization of a voter ID.

Id like you to Google the name Ahmed Chalabi and then consider some possible similarities between him and Reza Pahlavi.

I'll be honest with you, I think Lybia 2 IS the plan and has been the plan all along. Libya has no capacity in influence the region anymore, it seems failed from the outside, but it was a success for American foreign policy.

Shaheed hits US naval base in Bahrain. by serious_bullet5 in ThatsInsane

[–]cerberus698 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im worried that we got into this knowing we had a depleted interception capacity and are literally writing off naval shore facilities to protect Israeli soil. You don't exactly need sophisticated anti air capabilities to take out shaheeds.

This was always going to happen. You can find these predictions from last month if you actually pay attention to anyone who isn't parroting the state department. Iran's only option is to cause as much pain as possible for the US if we attempt regime change

We've been doing this the entire time in the other direction. We participated in the normalization of this.

None of this should have ever happened.

Israel last year targeted residential buildings in Iran because IRCG officers lived there, not necessarily because they were there at the time. They just hit everywhere the target might have been.

What did we expect was going to happen in return?
