    We're making a lot of assumptions about what kind of society Yemen has. I wouldn't proclaim to know.

    Most of people's problems are due to sanctions put on them by the West because the West isn't allowed to rape and pillage their nations for resources. A third of the world in fact.

    You read that right.

    A THIRD OF THE FUCKING WORLD is under U.S. sanctions.

    Stop pointing at others. We are the bad guys.

    I'm not pointing at anybody. I'm talking about solutions rather than trying to make up good and bad characters.

    There are no bad characters that need to be “made up”. They exist for real and are the root of the world’s problems. The solution would be to rid the world of their influence.

    Best solutions? Disband the CIA and get money out of U.S. politics.

    Anything other than that will just be incrementalism.

    It'll take more than that. But yeah, I'm for it.

    It'll always take more but this is what would curtail the issue the most.

    Money in politics is the biggest problem in this country. The root of all of our major problems.

    To be clear, she does not have to win Michigan. Assuming she takes Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, she only needs one of either Michigan or Georgia. It would certainly be easier with Michigan in the fold, and would make for a cleaner-looking electoral map, but it's not a must for her.

    DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Another wave of explosions echoed across Iran’s capital early Saturday as Israel launched retaliatory strikes that, according to two Israeli officials, are not targeting nuclear or oil facilities.

    The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to discuss the ongoing operation with the media.

    There was no immediate comment from the Iranian government. However, people in Tehran could see what appeared to be tracer fire light up the sky and the blasts could be heard.

    Iran had just shut the country’s airspace over the attacks.

    THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. AP’s earlier story follows below.

    DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Israel pounded Iran with airstrikes early Saturday, saying it was targeting military targets in retaliation for the barrage of ballistic missiles the Islamic Republic fired upon Israel earlier this month. Explosions could be heard in the Iranian capital, Tehran, though there was no immediate information on damage or casualties.

    The attack could push the archenemies closer to all-out war at a time of spiraling violence across the Middle East, where militant groups backed by Iran – including Hamas in Gaza, and Hezbollah in Lebanon – are already at war with Israel.

    The Israeli military said Saturday it had launched “precise strikes on military targets in Iran,” without immediately elaborating.

    How is Terhan being bombed by the Israel military and it's not all out war already?

    That seems kinda tough to come back from...

    Because as much as I don't like the regime in Iran, they look like literal angels in comparison to the terrorists in Israel.

    Well, first you'd have to be able to correctly identify the bad guys, wouldn't you?

    Marco Rubio, Trump's pick to be Secretary of State, says he will not call for a ceasefire in Gaza.

    Unfortunately, in some wars the only way they end is one side has to lose and quit.
