I'd say it's arguably been going on a lot longer than that.

But we haven't learned from our mistakes and continue to shit on other people's kitchen counters like a bunch of reprobates.
"I am that worst of all type of criminal...I cannot bring myself to do what you tell me, because you told me."

There's over 100 of us in this meat-suit. You'd think it runs like a ship, but it's more like a hundred and ten angry ghosts having an old-school QuakeWorld tournament, three people desperately trying to make sure the gamers don't go hungry or soil themselves, and the Facilities manager weeping in the corner as the garbage piles high.

JUST LIKE IN 2010.

Oh yes, this has happened before.

There should be a term for "doing stupid or evil shit because you can't remember how to do anything else."

Also, "You have so much blood on your hands that you can no longer remember what it smells like."

Irreviolence. Covers both.

It's a dumb punmanteau, but that's what we deserve.

This isn't going to blow up at all, is it?.~

It's going to be a flaming shit show.

Iran is no more capable of letting this go unanswered as we would be.

Not just a militia leader, Qassem Soleimani as well.

That's the commander of the Quds Force of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. He essentially coordinates or oversees all of Iran's foreign, covert military and terrorist aid.

Yeah, as I understand it, he more or less was the head of the Iranian equivalent of SOCOM.

Yes. The Quds Force is pretty much exactly that, along with a dash of the CIA's paramilitary units (only with less exploding cigars).

It's bad, in other words. Especially since the Iranian government barely controls the IRGC on a good day.

Oh boy.


Do y'all reckon 45 started this for the whole "this'll save the election!!" thing I've seen suggested?

I mean, there were attacks in Iraq against American forces, I don't think that's disputable (though the numbers seem quite high, so I wouldn't be surprised if that had been fudged).

But assassinating Qassem Soleimani? I think he wanted his "we got Bin Laden" moment. I bet it rankled him no end that Obama did that. And now he's got a scalp that's almost as impressive.

Ah, so it's his infantile need to one up Obama?

That's my gut feeling, yeah. That it might cause a war with Iran is probably considered a plus though, at least by some people in the administration.

Interesting! Thank you.
