Oh! So brave!

Most Iranians ARE Muslim. Especially the hard liners. The ones who would commit suicidal lone wolf attacks must assuredly are Muslim.

The ones attacking Iran right in an illegal undeclared war (that is NOT a war!) are most assuredly Christians. Or so they say.

Senseless Violence is not restricted to the Muslims.

It's gonna be $150 per barrel just before the midterms.

Smooth mooooooove!

As of March 2026, the winter of 2025-2026 has been reported as the coldest in over 20 years for parts of the U.S. Northeast and mid-Atlantic, with some areas experiencing the chilliest conditions since 1985-1986. This contrasts with the western U.S. and other global regions, which experienced warmer-than-average, record-breaking temperatures.

It was the coldest winter in decades on planet Earth, what planet are you talking about?

And that is still not correct. It was the coldest winter in the NORTHEAST of America in decades. That would have been a correct statement. So it would depend on where you live obviously.

But it was still the second warmest on record in AMERICA because it was a lot warmer in the west than normal.

I live on Earth OG. Which Earth do you live on?

Commie Spyboy is sounding a bit desperate these days.

Do you prefer to be referred to as Dunning-Boy or Donner-Kruger?

Says the maroon who just proudly claimed it was the coldest winter in decades.

Tell you what then, YOU send YOUR money to these bums and leave MY money out of it

Ok. You send YOUR money to fight an illegal war and keep MY money out of it.

"Odd time to bring up global warming, after the coldest winter in decades."

Except that it wasn't.

The winter of 2025-2026 (December"February) was the second-warmest on record.

Second-warmest in 131 years of record-keeping, falling just behind the 2023-2024 winter.

The primary term for being proud of or confident in your own ignorance is the Dunning-Kruger effect, a cognitive bias where people with limited knowledge overestimate their competence. Another specific, albeit older, term is Bayard, which describes someone with supreme self-confidence born of ignorance.

Re 10

There are ~ 1 million Iranians in America today.

I am gonna go out in a limb and bet at least one of is getting really pissed.

Islamophobia does not exist.

Thank you big dummy. You just proved that it does. At least with you.

You equating the entire religion of Islam"practiced by over 1.5 billion people"with an existential threat is a form of prejudice or Islamophobia in itself.

Better than Viagra!!

AmIRight Commie creep?

Easy fix.

Stop testing and saving data. Then you won't have this problem!

"Slow the Testing Down": Trump explicitly said, "When you do testing to that extent, you're going to find more people, you're going to find more cases. So I said to my people, 'Slow the testing down, please'".

The funny thing is you weren't even drinking coffee, nor wearing a t-shirt.

I am almost always drinking coffee and wearing a t shirt. Unless I'm asleep. And then I'm not drinking coffee but I am still wearing that same old T-shirt.

It's funny that you think you know me.

"Accidents happen."

That's what yer mom said, too.

How to make a bigger profit....

POSTED BY PETROUS

Easy. Make a bigger war.

$150 pb is no longer unreasonable.

$200 is actually around the corner.

Whats was the plan to keep the oil flowing?

I think the plan was this will be over in a week.

The War (that is NOT a war) may never be over now. I don't see an end in sight.

Well.. civilization was fun!

It was a good run while it lasted folks. We really did make some cool stuff. Too bad we decided to destroy ourselves with it.

Maybe next time.

The world may not look the same after the war.

Especially if it metastasizes into a world war.

And you know what? It sure looks to me like a world war already. Look who is already involved:

America Israel, Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman, Azerbaijan, and Cyprus, with support or assets from the UK and France

And Russia is already trying to stick its nose in.

Almost there!

Oh. And then there is this:

According to reports based on U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) data from 2021"2024, over 1,500 Iranian nationals were apprehended at the southern U.S. border during the Biden administration, and nearly 50% of them were released into the United States.

( Of course that is from the CBP so take it with a very large grain of salt. You might need access to a salt mine for a very large grain (crystal?) of salt).

First time it rains he's out.

You know how his bone spurs act up when it rains.

Congress has abdicated its responsibilities so Trumpy is no longer accountable to The People.

There is no one left to hold him accountable for his crimes.

Just watched the Nuremberg Trials.

If the world is lucky and survives WWIII then accountable may happen. Later. Much later. Maybe.

One thing I gleaned from the Nuremberg Trials ...

They almost didn't happen.

Russel Crow portrayed Reichsmarschall Hermann Goering. I didn't even recognize him until halfway thru the movie he was channeling Goering so well.

so-called "sleeper cells," which are already here,

They are?

Are they hiding under your bed?

Have you met Boaz?

You two have a lot in common on this particular subject.

Irrationally fear.

#17 | POSTED BY CLOWNSHACK

No one knows how many "sleeper cells" there might be in America.

But I will bet there is more than 1 angry Iranian in America right now.

AI Overview

As of 2024"2026, there are approximately 750,000 to over 1 million people of Iranian ancestry living in the United States. The population is heavily concentrated in California, particularly in the Los Angeles area, which is often nicknamed "Tehrangeles".

...

If your home country was being illegally attacked and bombed by the country you were currently living in what would you do? Would you just sit back and watch your homeland being destroyed and your friends and families killed and do nothing?

Think about it.

Having a conscience is an emergent property.

Which hasn't yet emerged in Republican brains.

Could be why they call them "NEAR death experiences." :-)

Exactly.

No one has actually ever returned from biological death.

CORRECTION: The more I've learned, the more I've acknowledged to myself how little I know ...

You have snatched the pebble from my hand grasshopper!
You may leave the Temple anytime you choose!

Because this is a subject so difficult to talk about being as we do not have the proper words for it and thus no easy way of talking about it I leave you with the story of Nagasena and the chariot.

In the Milindapanha, the monk Nagasena uses the analogy of a chariot to explain the Buddhist concept of anatta (no-self) to King Milinda.

He argues that a "chariot" is merely a conventional designation for its constituent parts (wheels, axle, frame) and does not exist independently. Similarly, a "person" is a designation for the changing components of body and mind, not a permanent self.

I heard it's not a "war".

So ... it's now ...

"Special Military Operations! What are they good for?"
