  1. Selective Memory, how does it work?
  2. 18 most beautiful beaches in Iran
  3. The framing and lighting work on those flag shot is.... not great.
  4. WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump vetoed an Israeli plan in recent days to kill Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, two U.S. officials told Reuters on Sunday. Paywall Link to Reuters Article Media source is good, person quoted is at your discretion.
  5. Oh, so now you're wish casting arguments that never happened. Way to move the goal posts and not provide the receipts.
  6. Yeah, that and it ties to his ongoing "We need this war to end" talking point that he's used both with Ukraine and now Israel/Iran.
  7. There was an article in Reuters about it but my search skills suck so here is another source which I can't vouch for on Israel but appears solid and legit: New wave of Israeli airstrikes In the hours following the attack on Israel, Israeli fighters once again struck targets in Iran. The IDF says Israeli fighters “attacked dozens of targets in Tehran,” claiming it has eliminated all air defenses and achieved full freedom of operation in Tehran’s airspace. Again, I happened upon this page, but it has a lot of references and appears to be aviation oriented. It lines up with what I read on Reuters. I'll dig more to see if I can find the article from Reuters but in the mean time. Air attack discussion on TheAviationist.com
  8. What the fuck are you talking about dude! This never fucking happens on Surly. You are completely making shit up you delusional fucking weirdo. Show me one god damn instance of this ever occurring. I'll hang up and listen.
  9. Holy shit, that's delicious!
  10. Fixed slightly for accuracy
  11. Yeah, but they won the Basket all National Championship in 2020, or so said the Florida state senate!!! I mean they didn’t win a single game in the non-existent tournament but, thats a power house right there with there 1 final 4 appearance and 3 ACC championships.
  12. If you'd like to have a conversation or discussion I'm happy to do so. Feel free to provide input on specific points. Provide some perspectives on why you disagree with my takes. Not just shit on my takes which I've openly admitted are simplistic. Further, I've also admitted I'm happy to read other perspectives, ideas and information as I admit my own ignorance. If you want a juvenile shit talking partner, I'm afraid you'll have to look elsewhere.
  13. If you don't think psychological make up of individual leaders plays a part in how they make decisions, we've nothing further to discuss. Particularly, if you don't understand nor acknowledge that one of Trumps core characteristic is bully tactics. Happy to discuss any points or thoughts but I'm not interested in juvenile shit talking.
  14. Getting ahead of the surges is the name of the game. Find those diamonds in the rough before anyone else spots them. Sark is so far behind, it just scares ya to death.
  15. It could be, I suppose, but I'm of the opinion that Israel sees what's going on in the global space right now as an opportunity. With Ukraine making progress on Russia and the US now leaning their support that direction indirectly weakens Iran. China while currently "friendly" with Russia certainly isn't a friend. The US has a bully POTUS who cares about 3 things, power, money and his legacy. There is a potential for our POTUS to help Ukraine defeat Russia AND potentially help Israel take down a caliphate regime on the precipice of Nuclear power. I'm happy to be educated by those more knowledgeable than me, but I can't think of a better time in this generational conflict with Iran than right now for Israel to finally take down Iran. It would be a massive feather in the cap of both current leaders in the US and Israel who love that kind of shit and so do their supporters. Edit - Personally, I would be shocked if Israel is not all in on this round with Iran. I am fully convinced they are at the no quarter given point with this conflict. I don't know what I don't know, and that's most of it. So I admit my own ignorance and I'm reading the tea leaves at a simplistic level. I'm happy to be educated if there is something I'm missing, its truly why I join these conversations. I enjoy the thoughts and input from others, both those who agree and disagree if they provide sound logic to their reasoning.
  16. Agreed, I'm certain the plan all along included US assistance. They may not have asked prior to starting, but its wildly idiotic if they just hoped or assumed the US would help once things kicked off. I think the US most likely will and already agreed but its really speculation from all of us at this point.
  17. It's also June.
  18. I've faced a lot of bullies in my work and personal life. My instincts on them tend to be pretty fucking accurate. You seem largely unfamiliar with standard bully tactic protocol. If you agree that Israel knew the end game at start, which is all out war and ending the current Iranian regime and nuclear threat, then its poor bully tactics to not have secured backing of the biggest bully prior to throwing the first punch. That's exactly what a bully would do unless he's really stupid, which he may we be.
  19. Okay, I did truly NOT expect to hear "Okana's finger bang session" in that video, particularly given the tone of the narrator.
  20. I'm sadly aware. Oddly, I'm comforted by the fact that Sooners outnumber them pretty substantially. Pick your poison sort of deal.
  21. I agree with your second point, but my instincts, based on history, tell me that one bully makes sure he has the backing of a bigger bully prior to picking a fight.
  22. Most aggies are Houston pro sports fans, and at least the vast majority of Mavs and Cowboy fans know why the they are miserable. aggie delusion doesn't allow for that awareness.
  23. Thats sarcasm right? It's already been discussed behind closed doors, if a choice has been made is all that's TBD/announced. Israel knew their end game before they set the first missile loose.
  24. Agreed. The entertainment value of big brand teams vs our big brand team is so high. How big was OSU in 2005? How big was Michigan last year? How big is OSU next year? We talked about Michigan well into the playoffs. Then having Georgia, OUsux, aggie and upstart Vandy on our schedule made it a fun ass year of entertaining football. We only reference ULM and UTSA due to Arch starting them both.
