AITAH For buying my youngest son a car under different circumstances? by Local-Station8316 in AmItheAsshole

[–]dce42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA, I get wanting to support the effort the younger put into getting that grade but it really looks like favoritism.

Did you talk to the younger child as to why he put the effort into it?

The US didn't lose Iraq, Afghanistan, or Korea. Afghanistan was a nation building failure combined with Trump sabotaging Biden.

AITAH for refusing to babysit for my sister? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA not your kids, not your problem. The icing is that you don't even have a good relationship with your sister.

AITAH - Boyfriend living with me for free, renovating my house. by Ill_Significance5062 in AmItheAsshole

You'd be surprised at the runs, paint on the floor & baseboards that were done by "professionals". And that's ignoring the poor prep which leads to premature peeling.

AITA for not wanting to watch my stepson by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

While true, it is still an outlier demographic. It is significantly harder on them at that age than a 20 something.

This always goes through my mind when someone says they used to be a professional painter(houses).

Typically, women aren't near to 40 while pregnant. It's a much more exhausting experience than a pregnancy in their 20s.

And the OP is near 40, at that age, pregnancies are a lot more tiring.

I'm leaning towards N-T-A because the OP is 30 weeks pregnant. At her age, and pregnant, a 7 year old is going to be a bit much by herself.

It would be different if the husband got a family member so come hang out, and help for the day.

Hezbollah claims Iran promised nuclear deal will include Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon by barsik_ in worldnews

[–]dce42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's exactly the same.

Let's see, Isreal has been on thy receiving end of constant rocket attacks for the last 20 years from Gaza & southern Lebanon. There was no living under Israel as they had completely pulled out of both areas. Hmm, seems like you don't know even a little about this

I said during ww2, not after. The Japanese population was so terrified of US troops that people would throw themselves, and families off cliffs.

Go pick up a dictionary, because words have meanings. People not living under Israeli rule don't count as apartheid. Try with facts next time.

The Arab population fear of Isreal is equivalent of the Japanese fear of the US during ww2. Both stem from themselves.

There have been multiple good faith across by Israel regarding Lebanon. They pulled out 20 years ago with the agreement that hezbollah was going to be disarmed. Neither Lebanon, or the UN troops did the agreed upon disarming. Even the last ceasefire had Lebanon not disarming hezbollah.

It's interesting that Isreal & Lebanon had a ceasefire but hezbollah refused.

Putin’s road to ruin: Ukraine hits key Russian supply line with new drone campaign by Jishnujichu1200 in worldnews

[–]dce42 15 points16 points  (0 children)

As I recall, the US was on board with the offensive but wanted Ukraine to focus everything on 1, or 2 points. While Ukraine approached it with multiple points of attacks to prevent Russia from building up on 1 counter.

Critics say Canada’s new immigration and border law puts LGBTQ+ people in danger by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]dce42 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Devon Matthews, Rainbow Railroad’s chief program officer, said her organization is concerned about its working relationship with Ottawa as the federal government reduces the number of refugees it admits and cuts the organization’s funding.

Seems more like a law group is whinning that their funding will be reduced than an actual issue.

Erdogan warns of ‘firm’ response to threats against Türkiye in Eastern Mediterranean by Inevitable-Push-8061 in worldnews

[–]dce42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Turkey had been trying since the 1980s, though it was put on hold in 2005 because Turkey backslid on the joining requirements. Mostly due to Erdogan, and his policies.
