I already proved you were full of shit. Try harder.

cough Bullshit

“By the time it was introduced, 218 of the 222 House Democrats had signed on as cosponsors, assuring its passage.[54] Trump was impeached in a vote on January 13, 2021; ten Republicans, including House Republican Conference chairwoman Liz Cheney, joined all of the Democrats in supporting the article”

“U.S. Senate voted 57-43 to acquit Donald Trump of inciting the January 6, 2021, Capitol insurrection, falling short of the two-thirds majority (67 votes) required for conviction. While all 50 Democrats voted to convict, seven Republicans joined them, making it the most bipartisan impeachment conviction vote in U.S”

Unfortunately, it is not just the US.

That not what I learned in school. Our founding fathers were the smartest, bravest, and most honorable people ever! /S

I think the terms are a good starting point. The US can seriously get bent at this point. You are probably right that they will not agree to them, but who knows when they have the worst negotiator man baby Trumplethinskin in charge.

For some reason I couldn’t see these unless I hit reply. Weird.

Guarantees of Non-aggression: A fundamental U.S. commitment to stop and never resume hostilities.

Control of the Strait of Hormuz: Continued Iranian military management and control over the waterway.

Nuclear Enrichment Rights: U.S. acceptance of Iran’s right to enrich uranium on its own soil.

Lifting Primary Sanctions: Removal of all direct U.S. financial restrictions and sanctions.

Lifting Secondary Sanctions: Ending penalties on foreign entities that do business with Iran.

Termination of UNSC Resolutions: Ending all United Nations Security Council resolutions against Iran.

Termination of IAEA Resolutions: Ending all International Atomic Energy Agency resolutions regarding Iran’s nuclear program.

War Reparations: Compensation payments for damage to Iranian infrastructure, potentially funded by tolls on ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

U.S. Military Withdrawal: Withdrawal of U.S. combat forces from all bases and positions in the region.

Ceasefire on All Fronts: An end to hostilities across the region, including the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon.

I sure hope not, but considering China is the fourth largest supplier of arms you are probably right. I am not as worried about India, but Russia scares the hell out of me with their restore former USSR glory garbage.

Translation: It is good at finding bugs that the NSA doesn’t want people to know about.

You also don’t need higher level programming languages. The ability to code assembly has always been inside you.

They could just provide cheap high quality streaming services to end piracy, but instead they want to provide garbage multi-tier advertising enabled massively fractured streaming service and force people to subscribe by playing a lamesauce game of pirate whack-a-mole.

Christmas is a pagan holiday co-opted by Christians. Christmas is most definitely a secular tradition in the US and there is nothing unusual about an atheist celebrating it.

What is unusual is Christians trying to bring Christ into the celebration when the timing just doesn’t make any sense. Was he actually born during this time? Where does he fit in with Santa Claus? Why do we bring a tree indoors? What about Jesus equals buying gifts to give to loved ones?

Clearly Jesus doesn’t belong in Christmas no matter how hard Christians try to pretend he does.

Remove Disney music, speed up video by 25%, and replace with Benny Hill Yakety Sax on an endless loop.

How does it feel to put you life into the hands of a dysfunctional black box?

Which lawyers? Clearly Chevron’s lawyers were able to absolve all their liability so they definitely won.

Furthermore, Chevron extracted close to 30 billion dollars of petroleum and left an environmental disaster behind. Chevron even counter sued and was awarded an addition 3 billion in damages that was reduced to 220 million for Ecuador daring to try and hold a US corporation responsible.

Not only did Chevron prevail they continued the harassment of Steven keeping him under confinement for years and preventing him from practicing law.

I think you are missing hundreds of years of progressive corporate lawyering to entrench their business model(s) into our society.

Take the US for example. Originally corporations had to be for the public good, were time limited, and the owners were held directly financially accountable for their decisions.

It took hundreds of years of court cases and lobbying to get to the point where we are now and it is absolutely insane. There is a reason the corporation has become the dominant form of our culture.

This is the guy who threatened to nuke a hurricane because it wasn’t going the direction he wanted. I think we can safely assume all options, no matter how batshit crazy, are on the table.

It is a shame the superpowers didn’t commit to disarmament when they had an appetite for it. The thought of the civilized world ready to end itself over political squabbles is a little much.

Particularly when we have essentially doomsday cultists running the US.

The Kurds should trust the US again. How does the saying go?

Trust them eight times and get betrayed every single time, trust them again and get betrayed just for old times sake - Unknown western diplomat

The only thing nuclear weapons are detouring right now is US’s warmongering from being stopped because of MAD. Same with Russia. Unless all nations have them and are willing to use them it allows those with nuclear weapons to bully those without with impunity.

In the ideal world we would would be disarming, not creating more civilian massacre devices.

Correct, with some of the more prolific owners having as many as 30 or more.
