BEGGED, THE WORD YOU ARE LOOKING FOR IS BEGGED
> Netanyahu is said to be considering what some describe as a “last-resort option.”
> implicit reference to the potential use of nuclear capabilities
I think they might be dumb enough to do it. Strategically speaking, this is the dumbest fucking idea on the planet. Tehran is where all of the Iranian libshits live, the extremists live in the mountains. Vaporizing the libshits will have NO EFFECT on combat operations, but it will unite the Muslim world.
> Bahrain destabilized, both the UAE and Saudi Arabia now find themselves within striking distance
@lain probably ought to catch a flight... Come visit us in France (that offer is serious)
> Yesterday’s coalition bombing campaign, intended as a show of force, appears to have had little effect.
> Instead of deterring Iranian advances, the conflict has intensified.
Vaporizing libshits in Tehran, we talked about this.
> China has deployed an intelligence vessel off the coast of Oman
LOL, Chinaman troll hard.
You're welcome to your predictions, that's mine.
They can let the US get bogged down in whatever happens, and chaos only benefits in that scenario. Another Afghanistan for the US means the US is less powerful in the region.
If everyone loses, Israel wins.
"If we assume that Israel's goal is primacy in the region, then they don't need a protracted conflict in Iran."
This is retarded shit. While there may be a fringe splinter group of Israelis with dreams of Greater Israel, the overwhelming plurality want nothing to do with that. Most want West Bank and that's it. Normal Jews want nothing to do with governing over hostile muslims. Pointless.
Insert famous "Why of course the people don't want war" quote...
@cjd @lain @threalist You honestly think Jews are chomping at the bit to rule over Muslims? If so you’re clearly drinking a very polluted kool-aid.
Anyway... just sent out v2 of my kernel patchset so now it's time to go plant some raspberry plants :]
" time to go plant some raspberry plants :]"
Sounds like an expansionist land grab.
14 strawberries in total, now 5 raspberries and 5 blackberries and that's it for berries this season...
@cjd @lain @truthbait @threalist
I have blackberries. They really are wanna be "weeds". The key is to set a boundary - "thus far and no farther" and ruthlessly cut any sprouts that spring up from root propagation beyond the boundary.
Also beware of "berry bugs", aka "noseeums" that eat animal skin, but unlike the more symbiotic house mites that wait for you to shed said skin, they spit corrosive chemicals on your skin to dissolve it on demand. This causes nasty allergic reactions in addition to sores from the "bites". The key is to not scratch.
@cjd @lain @customdesigned @threalist
Bottle that jam and sell it here.
However, I do have a couple of elderberries as an experiment to see if that works out. Supposedly dried elderberries are 30$ a pound.
Currently they're just planted in landscaping cloth, gonna throw some woodchips over them to look nice and then when they send out shoots, I'll pass through cutting holes in the cloth and plant the shoots. At least for the first couple of years until they're established.
