Larry Silverstein, former owner of the Twin Towers, has purchased a tall building in LA, causing some to claim this is foreshadowing a west coast 9/11 to bolster public support for boots on the ground in Iran.

It's certainly possible, but do we know if Silverstein has purchased other tall buildings since 2001 that did not get destroyed in false flag terror attacks? This looks a lot less like a cohencidence if Silverstein has a history of buying buildings that don't get blown up where 9/11 is the exception.

Furthermore, if they do try a west coast 9/11 with this building I don't think it will work as intended. For one U.S. Bank Tower is nowhere near as iconic as the World Trade Center was, for two most people hate Los Angeles and don't care if bad things happen to it. Three, using planes again would destroy whats left of the perception of legitimacy that the TSA has, and four it's going to be hard to sell it as a drone attack since Iranian weapons do not have the range to strike LA. Finally the biggest difference between 9/11 and this hypothetical is that 9/11 was a sucker punch during peace time, and this would be seen as a retaliation for a conflict we started.

That isn't to say they won't try something, but it is to say that it's a lot less likely to work as well as 9/11 did for building invasion support.

Haven't posted in a week or so, so, not a jewsperg. That said, the most disappointing thing for me in this war is that Iran basically plays up the ME/Aran stereotype of being complete fucking retards. Nazi Germany proved that the only opponents to jews are huwites. And huwites don't give a shit about jews anymore, which is somewhat ironic in my book given that jews are the ones who pushed for muslim migration in the first place.

Personally, I would prefer if we just nuked Israel, Iran and the entire ME. IDGAF about their oil anymore,
 


and this guy is the leading figure for the Pro-Ayatolah university students and liberals who think his word is gospel
same groups that keep downplaying Islamic terrorism whilst actively promotion actual islamic terrorist groups
like Hamas, Hezbollah, Iranian religious hardliners and Houthis,



...Cenk and his nephew needs to be checked if they received funding from Iran.
even in forms of donations. at this point.
 
given that jews are the ones who pushed for muslim migration in the first place.
There's a pusher and there's someone who let's himself get pushed. This is making (((them))) into this overpowering entity when all that was ever needed was a "FUCK OFF" to any so called migrant. There are European countries that prove it's possible to do so.

Genuine question - what should their strategy be then given their circumstances? There are 100 smart arse responses you could give for internet points, but what alternatives do they have if they want to fight? Remember this was the most heavily sanctioned country in the world for several years until Russia-Ukraine.
 
when we lay a new data cable we dont turn off the old one, we just keep it around, even if its only doing 10% of what the new cable is why loose 10% bandwith right?
Do you have real bandwidth numbers? To my understanding the cables you posted are somewhere in the zone of 10Tbit/s, which intuitively appears to be a small fraction of the data transfer between the effected areas.
This sources gives 21.5EB / month mobile data with 12x "wifi", with ~20% yearly growth, as of 2024. This is ~8.2TB per second in mobile data alone.
SEA-ME-WE-4 is 4.6 Tbit/s, ~1/15 of that number.
To me this indicates a larger attack would be required to significantly degrade The Internet, but again this is not my area of expertise.

One of my favourite jokes that I've made is that 9/11 wasn't a giant Jewish conspiracy, it was a small-scale Jewish conspiracy: it was one Jew just trying to get a big payday through an insurance fraud scheme.
 
The reason you cant afford a Navy is not because you arent an empire. If you spent half of what you spend on the NHS on the RN the fleet would be pretty decent. The Republic of Singapore Navy has 40 warships to the UKs 72, and they are a city state with a population smaller then greater Londons.
While I agree with the general thrust of the argument, there are two points: the RSN doesn't have anything larger than a frigate, and while I didn't go into autistic detail about the cost overruns, I assumed it would be obvious that the RN hugely overspent on fewer ships. Aside from the fact that it's much more expensive to build and maintain nuclear missile subs and aircraft carriers anyway, the type 45 and the QE class were both enormously over budget, thanks to the unique way the British state has found to spend money on nothing.

This is also, incidentally, how it's possible for a country to meet its NATO budget obligations while not having a functional military.
 
Eastern Europe and the Balkans (outside of, I dunno, Albania maybe) don't have a problem with Israel
Albania :feels: Israel
I remember Muslims on Twitter seething that a Muslim country was putting Israeli flags all over its capital during the Gaza war

ignoring the epstein silliness, absolutely. they have marital laws that allow children to be sold, both male and female, as commodities to whatever family can afford them. it's a huge problem there, but libs don't give a fuck about child trafficking unless it might take down trump.
Khomeini specifically said it was OK to marry a 9-year-old and that it was generally preferable for a wife to have her first period in her husband’s home implying that 9 year old wives are better than old 14 year old hags. He then clarified that it was acceptable to do all sorts of sexual things to wives who were under 9 years old (even infants) as long as you didn’t penetrate them. Furthermore, if you did have penetrative sex with your underage wife it was merely a sin, unless you caused damage (specifically a fistula) in which case you should be punished by not being allowed to have sex with your wife even after she turned 9.
The founder of the Islamic Republic not only wrote all that shit about the morality and ethics of marrying and fucking/fondling/frotting infants and little girls, but somehow comes to the conclusion that anything other than tearing her open with your cock was at worst discouraged.

Wait a minute... that's Rubio's home state, and he was born to Cuban ex-pats who fled Castro. Even if we didn't have all of the memes about him being a head of state for Trump he'd still fit the bill far too well.
It’s not a coincidence. Florida is the closest state to Cuba by a long shot and therefore the state that Cuban refugees go to.
 
The person I was originally replying to was suggesting that Iran (before the current war) might some day launch an all out ballistic missile attack on Europe, which is a stretch, to put it mildly. Iran's focus is very much regional, as are most of its capabilities. It is concerned with Israel and the Saudis, not France or Germany.
Iran: *literally pisses off the primary military force of NATO, gets bombed into oblivion, still talks shit*
You: Clearly Iran would NEVER challenge NATO.

Again, you are mistaking practical limitations for ulterior intentions. I've already explained to you why Europe cannot realistically just switch off the gas and also support Ukraine simultaneously, as paradoxical as that sounds.
My nigger, no one is asking them to turn on a dime. I am aware how long these things take to go through. However I just posted articles that show that since 2022 when big scary Russia 100% of European thought is directed at invaded Ukraine, they have done Jack, Fucking, and Shit to actually get off Russian energy. It took them almost 3 years to agree to something that resembled actual sanctions.

They have had since 2014 to get this straightened out. I have been malding about Eurocucks refusing to do anything substantive to curtail russia for over a decade. Again, the EU's collective response to seeing Russia invade Crimea was "well, we'll shut down our nuke plants, triple our gas guy from Russia, and continue to fail to meet our NATO gdp spend. We'll also continue to fuck over any attempts by the US to get that LNG port facility working. That'll really fix putin."

Not to turn this into Ukraine chat, but Putin invaded in 2022 because of how absolutely terminally cucked the European response was in 2014 (The US having a limp wristed 'global citizen' as president didn't help ot be clear). If Europe had actually made any efforts to remove their dependency on what you assert is their primary threat that overwhlemingly consumes their every thought and foreign policy decision and actually presented a strong response, there wouldn't be a Ukrainian conflict.

So please stop the cuckcope. You are feckless, spineless allies controlled by Muslims despite them being only 5% of your population, their allies make your leaders dance to Muhammed's tune.
I wish that it was not so, but them the breaks.

I would like to close this with a nice story the shows the long history of gratitude by the continent of serfs.

In 1966 Charles De Gaulle withdrew France from NATO and ordered all American military personnel be withdrawn from French soil. Then Secretary of state Dean Rusk, in meeting to discus the order asked "Does your order include the bodies of American soldiers in France's cemeteries?"; De Gaulle appeared furious but did not respond.

We know this a true story. The reason we know this is true is because Rusk did not want to ask the question, but LBJ signed an executive order forcing him to raise the topic during the meeting.

The US is not asking for Europe to sacrifice 250,000 of its own citizens and billions of dollars because the US wanted Peace in Our Time. That ask was for using bases, and sending some ships to escort oil that goes to European markets.
but that is simply beyond the pale for modern Europe.

They nearly doubled drone and missile launches since yesterday, the US is finished.

What coincidental timing that I just happened to see this.
No idea who this guy is, so it could just be some bullshit clickbait, but I wouldn't be shocked if it were real at this point. The IRGC already humiliated him when he apologized to the Gulf States for bombing them.

He's the elected figure head. Its an inverse of the UK/Royals situation where the unelected elite run the country and the elected government is just there to do ceremonies and has no real power.
It could be fake news but I can also see the guy really not wanting to go down with the ship.

Word is they were a couple in their 70s. Shit on Jews all you want, but at least they can aim at targets who aren't civilians already on death's door.
The Ayatollah was 85, Jewlover :smug:
