Issue with tunnels is they are a nightmare for the enemy to clear out, it’s time consuming and can be costly in terms of manpower. A wrong turn could mean a booby trap where some bomb goes off. US should have gotten into this after they got fucked in Vietnam but I supposed now is the second best time to prepare.

Only if you value the enemy’s lives more than your own soldiers’. If you don’t, you can just flood or gas the tunnels.

The best part is, even if you assume these numbers are true, so what? What difference does it make? Is Trump suddenly not president? Have the Senate Republicans caved and agreed to vote for infinite illegal healthcare? No? Then what the fuck was the point?

It's literally farts in the wind, Trump solved most of the wars, and they hate that. Now just Russia/Ukraine and getting illegals off the ACA and other benefit trains for now.

I watched them for a long time on ddcobra, they have no frigging clue when Nick Shirly asked anything about what they don't like. It was just 'Orange man bad!'. The only thing they really got worked up is over the term 'illegal' as if that matters. The funniest thing is any negroes around don't really want those imports taking the lower level jobs anymore, but they can only vote, and they did.

While I'm being a curmudgeon, boomers got to sit through the most absurd period of US stock returns and most of them are going to die before the post high crash happens. People chant about line go up can't continue forever, but what actually can't go up forever is valuations.

Increases in valuations has produced absolutely unrealistic expectations for the US stock market and drives people to think they will get double to triple the return on their savings than can be reasonably expected because the boomers got to experience that.

People see stock going up in price relative to the company's earnings and think it will continue. What it means is either people are expecting the company's profit to increase and so if that increases happens, the stock will not actually go up in proportion (and if it doesn't it crashes). Or they think the company's earnings are more reliable, meaning the expected future return on holding that company's stock goes down.

Massively high valuations mathematically mean one of two things. Either a crash happens to bring valuations down to realistic values or a lost decade happens to allow profits to increase enough to make valuations reasonable. Neither of which people are prepared to happen.

The people who told you '08 was a once in a lifetime event were lying to you. Unless you are 70, you should expect and be prepared for stocks to crash 50% in your lifetime. And if you're under 50, be prepared for it to happen twice or more.

Guys the boomers with a million dollars in cash and assets demand you take a 30% broad cost of living increase to make themselves feel better before they die. Can't you stop being so selfish and just share a 1 bedroom apartment with a roommate or two so they don't have to watch the mean tweets segments on CNN in their 5 bedroom houses anymore?

1 miilion, I mean 1 billion protestors right?


"Second "No Kings Day" protests the largest single-day political protest ever*, with 5.2-8.2 million participants

Here are the initial results from our crowdsourced crowd-counting estimates"​


If these trends continue, ooooyyyy

If it was so popular why were so many of the pictures of old events like womens marches and UK protests against digital ID?

Good question, NYC and Chicago and the usual suspect blue cities had turn out, but the rest weren't many that I saw. It'll be forgotten soon..

Okay, let's get this out of the way.

@Catch The Rainbow, got the video of the gunfire Hamas supposedly used?

No.

As usual, Hamas violated the ceasefire but everyone blames Israel

Israel says an IDF vehicle was hit by an anti-tank missile near Rafah, killing two soldiers. Israel accused Hamas of violating the ceasefire and launched heavy airstrikes across southern Gaza. Hamas denied involvement. Israel has halted humanitarian aid into the Strip until further notice, though new reports indicate the crossing may reopen tomorrow following U.S. pressure.

Israel launches air strikes in Gaza, accusing Hamas of 'bold violation of ceasefire'

From the article:

Israel says their tank was attacked in Gaza by Hamas:
In its statement on Sunday, the IDF said "terrorists fired an anti-tank missile and gunfire toward IDF troops operating to dismantle terrorist infrastructure in the Rafah area, in southern Gaza".

"In response, the IDF has begun striking in the area to eliminate the threat and dismantle tunnel shafts and military structures used for terrorist activity."

Hamas says the tank was supporting an attack from a rival Islamic gang:
Hamas, which has ruled the territory for 18 years, is facing a challenge from armed groups, such as Yasser Abu Shabab's Popular Forces, gangs which it says are being armed and supported by Israel.

A local source familiar with Sunday's incident told BBC News that Hamas fighters attacked a group affiliated with Abu Shabab in south-eastern Rafah, an area controlled by Israeli forces.

The militants reportedly came under surprise tank fire, leading to a short exchange of gunfire before Israeli warplanes bombed the site.

Residents living south of the nearby European Hospital said the strikes were accompanied by artillery shelling, with explosions shaking parts of Rafah.

Can’t wait for the next exasperated profane Trump clip. Those two deserve each other and we should stay far out of it.

Those boomers planned that their children, whom they sacrificed and saved for, would one day inherit that 5 bedroom house and have a family of their own.
But instead the thankless bastards got to go to college to fuck off for another 4 years of their lives and decided instead to become communists, junkies, troons, and "influencers".

How ya gonna keep em down on the farm, once they've seen 2 Girls 1Cup?
Now all you snot-nosed heathens get off my lawn!
