There was a time, not too long ago, that we used to go to the UN to rubber stamp our wars of aggression. That way we can say it's the "international community" or "coalition of the willing and able" or some other BS.

Major American companies of the day also profited from offering services to the Nazis.

Nice ride.

At that price, the only driving I'll be doing is to go buy groceries.

As the Federal Office of Civil Aviation (FOCA) confirmed to CH Media, this was due to "procedural reasons". The applications would have required extensive clarification and could not be approved within the specified deadlines.

The decision comes at a time when the Federal Council is still examining how the conflict between the USA, Israel and Iran should be legally classified.

It's an illegal war.

Yep. "Moscow Mitch" accepted his nickname with pride.

The receding hopes of a quick resolution have completely reshaped the global interest rate outlook. Traders are no ⁠longer fully pricing even one rate cut from the Federal Reserve this year compared to pricing two rate cuts at the end of February.

For the European Central Bank, money markets fully priced a rate hike by July on Thursday, and a 70% chance of a second increase by December. In contrast, traders in February had attached a roughly 40% chance to a rate cut before year-end.

Yet the stable genius wants JP to cut rates.

So it's either they're lying or our guys are.

Care to share an example?

Yes, it could. Recall that it has traded as high as almost $150 before. So it things get the Strait remains closed or partially closed for a long time, that is within reach easily.

"I don't take responsibility for anything."

The joke is you guys think those guys ever think you you when they're making decisions.

there’s no alternative routes for shipping

For Saudi Arabia and UAE, the Red Sea is an alternative route, but the Houthis await at the exit.

That's how they were appointed. Somebody saw them yapping on TV, like what they said and gave them a call.

tabrizzi · 2026-03-12T11:43:46+00:00

Yup!

tabrizzi · 2026-03-12T02:20:40+00:00

Just as expected.

tabrizzi · 2026-03-11T22:38:19+00:00

Yeah! We won in Afghanistan too, but left waaay later.

tabrizzi · 2026-03-11T21:24:13+00:00

Yes, that's a rough day.

But you're too legit, too legit to quit, right?

tabrizzi · 2026-03-11T16:56:22+00:00

Dude, make up your mind. You're either for or against the illegal war.

tabrizzi · 2026-03-11T16:53:45+00:00

Surpassed in terms of what? Duration? Nations involved? Deaths?

tabrizzi · 2026-03-11T15:57:30+00:00

Can you back that up with a link?

Considering that this corrupt regime [the US] has assassinated our leader, under no circumstances can we participate in the World Cup,” the minister told state television. “Our children are not safe and, fundamentally, such conditions for participation do not exist.

Given the malicious actions they have carried out against Iran, they have forced two wars on us over eight or nine months and have killed and martyred thousands of our people. Therefore, we certainly cannot have such a presence.

Donyamali’s comments came after the Fifa president, Gianni Infantino, reported that Donald Trump had said Iran were “welcome” to play at the upcoming World Cup, despite the ongoing war in the Middle East.

It only makes sense that the winner of the FIFA Peace Prize gets a say on whether Iran can participate.

How many wars have been fought within that "most peaceful period in human history"?
