  1. Thanks for responding to the original questions. I believe the "it's propaganda" response to your original post had much to do with characterizing Iran as a vile (did you say evil, too? Not sure.) country largely based on the way they wage war against Israel through proxy attacks on civilians. By your definition, as I understand it, Israel is at least equally vile in its own campaign for decades against civilians in the illegally settled areas and occupied areas. The campaign in Gaza with still gets the fig leaf of the awful October 7 attack and is actually called a war by our news media. Gaza is being systematically leveled and it's people bombed, forced to live in the open, and starved. Calling one side evil and guilty of bad things is indeed how Americans are roused for wars we have no business waging. Hitler is always invoked. The liberation of France is always invoked. We're liberators not invaders! Inside every Gook is an American trying to break out. That was all used to roll us into Iraq which is one of the worst policy decisions of my memory. A part of your reasoning was simplistic labeling. It reflects the odd American assumption that when we call somebody a Great Satan, we're invariably correct. ETA: I see my slowness writing puts me in third place. Y'all had visual aids, too! Nicely done.
  2. The Russian asset running the country is a dishonest sociopath without a scintilla of concern about anyone but himself. Every breath he takes is one too many. I am really trying to separate that loathsome person from my opinion of this decision to use this specialized ordnance on unique targets. I'm accustomed to things that benefit my country being done for atrocious reasons. What are the repercussions? Is it true that the Arab countries will not react much to this attack on the Persian one? What is their stance at this moment? I really don't know. Forty years ago, I would have expected them all to be in states of fury. Is Iran the only state or entity that will move against us? What are their capabilities? They must be underground other than the threat of their submarines to the USN. If this truly disrupts Iran's verified attempt to build a bomb (all speculation at this point, I know), why would this be a bad policy? Possible answers: We're unilaterally attacking another country; Our actions may not have even been necessary; We've just had our toe pulled into Israeli plans to further make the MidEast its defacto empire. I'm keeping my mind open. My nose tells me there are foul odors about.

  4. It will be a big beautiful postwar development. Even better than Gaza. Iranians will all have beautiful jobs at the hotels and restaurants and amusement parks. They'll all wear replicas of Hammurabi's coat.
  5. Poor cannonball form costs Lanning Richard Wesley. Cute video is where it's at with the young people. Kids are all on the Tik Tok flashing moves. Or just trotting.
  6. The ones I submitted were. Busty park rangers showing up while I was skinnydipping. Periscope up. I loved the outdoors.
  7. In the land of the midget, the midget remains a midget.
  8. There's a profound conclusion to this: Not only is Howell guessing. He digs deeper. He's a reporter, afterall. He hears that Turntine is keeping people guessing. That's a whole higher level of sports reporting.
  9. That's what Lake Bryan can do to your skin.
  10. Well, now we know why they'll have the number one class without laying out any big NIL money. Elko relates to today's youth.
  11. All of their lore is based on self-agrandizing lies that do not hold up under the mildest of scrutiny. They generate random fictions over there on a daily basis. One idiot speculates and all the parrots repeat it and respond to it as though it is gospel. Just look at their phony fan letters.
  12. Workers in corner offices who get six figure bonuses for getting more work than they pay for from the people who actually do the work. Holidays?
  13. Don't forget generating Aggie facts about how scared we are. Well, how scared everybody is for that matter. Sleeping giant and all that.
  14. Thanks for the response, LC. I truly had no notion of your background. Hook 'Em
  15. 1. Do you have an established rep around here as someone with high level connections? Unprejudiced question as I truly don't know. 2. WTF is a CIA veteran at high level doing sharing intelligence with you? Doesn't this make him/her a security breach? Isn't divulging state secrets (for persons other than Trump) a profound felony if not traitorous? Maybe you should report this guy to the FBI. Further, my mouth is agape that an Israeli hospital getting struck by a missile where no person was killed is big news while this: Is not worthwhile reporting on the same level because it's so fucking common. I suppose Hamas was hiding weapons and using a starving crowd as a cover that justifies Israel's starvation/bombing campaign against the civilians of Gaza. We're not aligned with the good guys in this one. We must really try to let that naive view of the world go. I don't want to see any civilians murdered. I don't place higher value on Israeli civilians than Gazans. Or Iraquis. Or Iranians. Or Afgans. Or whoever else we slaughter or support the slaughter of worldwide. Fuck Israel.
  16. This is sooo their problem. All someone has to do is "get" A&M and they will see it's paradise on Earth just like the TexAgs Aggies do. These aren't mercenaries like everyone else has to get because they are not A&M; these are solid kids with good heads on their shoulders who value an honor code and the 12th man. And they have to believe that this guy: Is some kind of dynamic closer for recruits who can make them realize their heretofore unrecognized dream to become an Aggie. A Texas Aggie from Texas! Elko sure had his team looking like well disciplined champions the last five games of last season. Maybe this time it's for real!
  17. That's really good. It's as though the dishonesty they voted for is rooted in an internal embrace of dishohesty to justify any vile/cruel/selfish act. I've noted, as has anyone paying attention, that there is nothing hidden about who and what Trump is. They voted for him and embrace him. But something in your statement opened my eyes to something else: they are Trump through and through. They don't just like him; he's a fucking mirror.
  18. I did not know that. Thanks.
  19. Bigly. Don't leave out the acquiescent.
  20. William getting the fart-huffing band back together. They're elite! How elite? Higher than top five! They'll be in the top five just above the top five. William goes into schizo gear: 1 Okay, we're talking about coaches. 2 Somewhere else is the only place A&M coaches can make a name for themselves. 3 Okay, we're not talking about coaches. We're talking about Edwards. 4 Okay, we're talking about two unnamed skill guys. Spectacular ones! 5 Now four guys followed by ellipses! 6 Just about everybody is a potential game changer, Excitable Boy William.
