Examples for your personal illumination, Iran’s precision arsenal is not a matter of dispute.

That was true in 2006, but it’s been 20 years

Iran is at the leading edge of the new era of warfare—cheap saturation precision fire, distributed, hardened and concealed assets—and the US has a decades old system that is technologically fancy and totally vulnerable to it. Things change

The American “leverage” is the *threat* of bombing critical infrastructure, if they actually do it there’s no more leverage! The Iranian leverage, besides the strait, is progressively degrading the US’s relative military position. It is pretty serious

To be legal civilian casualties have to be proportionate to the military advantage gained, and the premise is that the advantage of sudden command and control knockout is so high there can be very many. Easy facade for a massacre if you’re Israel

The IDF’s massacre in Lebanon is an operational form they developed with the US—massive simultaneous strikes on command and control targets, very permissive with civilian casualties—probably with almost entirely junk AI “targeting”

U can’t post u have to keep counting

“Nuke me,” he said

Anti-trans hatred is the very lifeblood of 21st century fascism and we need everyone to wake up to this simple truth before it's too late.

What on earth

Setting aside partisan politics, most Americans, the vast majority, have no idea about the factual state of the country.

American and Israeli missiles hit Sharif University in Tehran tonight. Often called #Iran’s MIT, the institution has been home to some of the country’s best and brightest minds in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics since 1966. 1/2

The First Amendment merchandise is part of a campaign, first reported here by Status, from the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press, designed to provide the press corps with a visible way of signaling support for press freedom on the one night of the year when the industry gathers in full force. Like members of Congress coordinating colors to make a political statem nt during the State of the Union Address, *the display will be subtle, not to take away from the purpose of the event, but it serves as a symbolic demonstration **that Trump won't be able to miss from his seat on stage.** The idea for the limited- run line, organizers told Status, grew out of a recurring question: how can people show up for the First Amendment in a tangible way? The question carries added weight this year with Trump set to attend the WHCA dinner after skipping the event throughout his first term -an absence that underscored his hostility toward the press.

After the al Ahli bombing I started learning about military topics because it seemed so dangerous for only war guys to know what’s happening. That turned out to be way too true, it is very scary, and now this information is simply in my head because it seems impossible to talk about ☹️☹️
