WAR

What the fuck was even the point of all of this? They get to keep their uranium, their nuclear program will get restarted, and they are closing in on control of a VITAL international passageway. A passageway that is essential to our national security. Oh yeah, and we are giving them hundreds of billions for dollars, just like Obama did.

Remember when some of you thought my saying Iran could end up in a stronger position after this conflict is over was crazy? Is it? Is it now?

True story

Also according to the comments: "The funny (and stupid) part is that there are other Israeli-made parts on the plane that would have been more difficult for them to remove, so they’re still there. So they can proudly pat themselves on the back for having one LESS Israeli part on their plane! That’ll show ‘em!"

Ireland removed Israeli tech from its €53 million government jet, now pilots face fog limits

Dublin says the Dassault Falcon 6X faces no operational restrictions, but aviation sources say excluding Elbit Systems’ FalconEye technology reduces pilots’ landing options in fog and other low-visibility conditions

 
SCHOOL of WAR: "Trump is not looking for the best solution. He is looking for the fastest solution. The Navy has about 20% of it's destroyers in the Central Command area of responsibility. They could probably at any one time get 40% of destroyers underway, maybe 50%, you know, for combat operations. Um, and but they are unwilling to do it because they are worried about the readiness burn on the backside."

Waiting for Revolutionary Guards to approve deal to open Hormuz, US lifts some sanctions

Trump insists a deal that would reopen the Strait of Hormuz could come soon, but senior Gulf official tells CNN there is a '50-50 chance' a deal will be reached by the weekend; US Treasury lifts sanctions against 3 airlines linked to the IRGC

 
just now read it first time in German news sites.
With the same conclusion everyone here already has:
How can you ever trust Hamas?
I was spending last week with my brother in-law; he's retired as a Lt. Col. after 30 years in the Marines, I read him the headline "hey, look, a peace deal with Hamas and they've agreed to totally disarm!" Then we both burst into laughter.
 
If you ever wondered who are these Kurds, what's their deal

Also Itai is one of the bravest journalists going as Israeli (in disguise) to all hostile places like Iraq Afghanistan ISIS territories etc to interview terrorists and whatnot (not what the Kurds are though)

 
Shin Bet chief warns Cabinet: 'Hamas views roadmap as political Oct. 7'

Shin Bet Director David Barnea warned ministers last night in the political-security Cabinet about the Gaza Peace Council's roadmap. According to sources present at the discussion, Barnea said that "Hamas is calling the roadmap signing ceremony a political October 7" - meaning that from their perspective, this represents a political victory over Israel, just as the day of the massacre was a military victory. Barnea also addressed the terror organization's apparent agreement to disarm as part of the plan: "This is all a process of deception against us. Hamas's entire goal is to buy time based on the thinking that this way we won't attack them until after the elections."

Stuxnet unleashed upon Iran: The tactics behind the world’s first cyberweapon​

By the end of the 2000s, tensions in the Middle East were growing. The United States was bogged down in a bloody two-front war in Iraq and Afghanistan, meanwhile, Iran was pressing on with its nuclear weapons program. A theocracy fanatically opposed to the U.S., Iran was threatening to create a nuclear weapon and use it against U.S. interests and allies in the area.


Then in 2010, seemingly all of a sudden, the Iranian nuclear program started falling apart and Iranian scientists leading the country’s covert nuclear program witnessed in dismay more than 1,000 centrifuges spinning to their destruction without any apparent reason. But there was plenty of reason, and it had a name: Stuxnet.
