Iranian propaganda is claiming that the Iranians arrested today in the US were not related to Qassem Soleimani:

For those who are unaware: the minimum age of marriage in Iran is 13 for girls and 15 for boys, and it's possible to marry off even younger children with court approval. Under Iranian law, all someone like Epstein has to do if they want to legally rape sex-trafficked teenagers for a few hours is to have a temporary so-called pleasure marriage (known as a sigheh or a nikah mut'ah) with them.

I'm sure Thomas Massie is very impressed to have such staunch supporters behind him.
 
20 years ago, im sure people were thinking warfare would be super tanks, powersuited infantry, stealth aircraft, and possibly mecha if they could get around sqaure-cube and ground pressure issues.

While we got stealth fighters, I wonder if they ever envisioned toy helicopters strapped with c4 and remote controlled cruise missiles being the new battlefield hardware.

The warfare of the future is lame and gay instead of cool.
 
Its also guaranteed to raise Ukraines stock in Washington DC. They've put their boys on the line to repay Americas efforts for them. Its going to be alot harder for Russia shills to say "America is getting nothing out of supporting Ukraine" now.
Lil' Z finally said "Thank you"

Giuffre was also a lifelong Orange Man defender lmao.

They're "avenging" her by fighting the guy she said was innocent.

Sweden is basically a third-world Muslim country now so this isn’t really a suprise.

There was a Harlan story that was pretty much exactly this, little autonomous razorblades rolling around looking for humans to kill.

It did then deviate into human-looking robots killing humans but oh well.
 
Sorry, I'm just not used to seeing a country act in their own self interest so readily. Perhaps Ukraine deserves some kind of reward for becoming so thankyou-pilled.
Yup. When people ask "So what has the USA gotten out of helping Ukraine?" instead of a very weird and complex geopolitical argument to explain precisely why Russia is bad everyone can just go "They sent some of their battle-hardened interception experts to the Middle East to help us out with Iran".

The Ukrainian Military Industrial Complex isn't small beer either. People forget that the T-64 was primarily designed and built by the Kharkiv Design Beureau. Ukraine is full of soviet arms factories, engineering schools and trained personnel. None of who went away after the USSR came apart.

Part of the reason Russias war is taking forever is Ukraine was full of Soviet air defense assets and the troops who knew how to use them, along with a massive mothballed military industrial capacity. Once Europe and America turned on the money printer they brought all that capacity back online. Ukraine right now has an arms industry on par with Germany at this point.

Demonstration of their new weapons platforms in this war not only earns them brownie points, it will also serve as a commercial for their MIC when the war with Russia ends and the money printer turns off. They can pivot to selling their shit to the Arabs and other third world shit holes.
 
"Why are we helping Ukraine?" dummies in this thread just now understanding soft power and second order effects.

Give Ukraine aid to help them push back an invasion ---> They develop new technology and strategy for modern warfare ---> You make them share what they learned with you
 
Trump published a video of strikes on Tehran, stating: “Many of Iran’s Military Leaders, who have led them poorly and unwisely, are terminated, along with much else, with this massive strike in Tehran!"

The footage he published shows strikes on the Golab Darreh mountains in northern Tehran at 23:20 2 days ago.

Yeah but we've also immensely helped the other Europeans who've been nothing but flops so it just depends on the country.
