  1. Kurd resistance movement is not terrorism. they have a right to defend themselves.

  2. Kamikaze Drone has a Chinese sourced 50HP 2/cycle moped engine and costs about $20K each. They are called "Loitering Drones" which home in on a target's radio signal, so not human directed.

  3. no, not at all.

  4. US and CHINA often vote NO on UNGA resolutions because they recognize the ICC. Check the vote, those who did not ratify the Rome Statute either voted NO or ABSTAINED. Biden would have voted NO, too.

  5. Pelosi first praises Biden for his courage and says he should be enshrined on Mt Rushmore, then blames him for the loss. Pelosi is why I changed from Democrat to GOP and voted for Trump in 2020 and 2024. She's toast.

  6. Ironic, most Supernova attendees were sympathetic to the plight of Palestinians. These were the children of Woodstock, a day of Peace, Love, and Understanding, and chance to "Get Back to the Garden", but then the snake appeared.

  7. That's a quote from Kissinger taken out of context in relation to a coup in South Vietnam. Stop using it that way.

  8. Next Gen Nuke does not have "melt-down" issue, walk-away safe, and available now.

  9. Dr. Malone's "controversial statements" were not about science or the vaccine, but about society, authority, and corporate media, that's what got him and Joe "cancelled", not the "science" part.
    85
  10. "clear victory" what fantasy.
    77
  11. self-generated hate, self-inflicted wound, one they teach their children. Choices have consequences.

  12. Zakir, a collaborator in the Jazz world, we loved him at The San Francisco Jazz Festival and other Bay Area events. I saw him solo at St Mary's Cathedral in SF.

  13. "Hundreds", there are perhaps 300 million guns either owned or for sale in the US. Gun buybacks have been going on for decades, this is not new, and certainly not any sort of trend.

  14. Jared Issacman has a degree in aeronautical engineering, qualified in multiple military Jets and led the team, not a rookie, not token. BBC, get it right.
    49
  15. International Law is clear, it's a military target if used to transport combatants. Shame on you
    47
  16. you cannot tell the difference, especially when even Palestinian members of the US congress support Hamas.
    47
  17. This show we get a joke and you don't
    46
  18. Israel was attacked, they are not the attackers. Remember Munich 1972
    42
  19. Houthi's made the threat, didn't you listen?
    41
  20. 50 years ago I watched a uniformed Lt Kerry speak against the war in Vietnam and hoped one day to vote for him. What a mistake I made, but then I was only 16 at the time. Only a child would believe this guy.

  21.  @ethan17748  We need rockets, too, since the moon has material needed for this technology, and first comes commercial use of MSBRs.
    32
  22. I have the late 1970s book, "The Cooling" by Lowell Ponte. The oil companies have been tracking the change since the 1960s. so has our military.
    31
  23. 21% of Israeli citizens are Arab, show me the comparable in Saudi Arabia. There's no moral equivalence.

  24. Greenland is home to some of the world's largest deposits of rare earth elements. Trump is looking for great places to install AI data farms in strategic locations to protect US tech infra-structure. These rare earth elements are crucial for various high-tech applications, including electronics, renewable energy technologies, and defense systems.
    28
  25. "victims"? or combatants.
    27
  26. Population has grown 10X, it's not a genocide. 21% of Israelis citizens are Arab, it is not an ethnic cleansing. Try Sudan/Darfur for that
    26
  27. Sure, that hasn't even worked when you called for it on Israel. Good luck.
    25
  28. no, he did not "confess" to any such thing. He believed it was rigged at the time, so challenging the results was not a crime.

  29.  @bonitobonita9263  I'm 66, she knows, that's what makes it worse.

  30. I'm a California Dem, this is a Stalinesque show trial by partisans who are about to lose control of both the House and Senate. I watched the Watergate Senate hearings as a teen, which were bi-partisan. Senators Sam Ervin and Howard Baker, opposite sides at the beginning, came together on Nixon over facts. There are no new "facts" allowed here, just rhetoric.
    23
  31. Trump had a winning ground game in swing states, his media game allowed people who supported his values to finally feel they could express them publicly. I'm in the coast of California and still can't speak my mind without both social and economic backlash. To get a job in my state you have to pass a "Cultural Inclusivity Assessment". This is especially true in the teaching profession. There's more work to do.

  32. International law allows even an ambulance to be hit if used for military purpose.

  33. He's 76, they tried to impeach him twice and failed, you will be disappointed again.
    22
  34. Abortion is #3, not top issue.
    22
  35. Munich 1972 PLO, 12 Israeli Olympic athletes never made it home.
    22
  36. Hamas is indeed in the West Bank, along with other jihadist groups
    21
  37. Tampa, Florida was hit with a hurricane this size in 1921. If this one is due to "climate change", what was that one over 100 years ago due to?
    21
  38. Free Americans from CAIR and Qatar.
    21
  39. So? It's war, every war has friendly fire. What's your point?

  40. BBC is deflecting the story about the hard-drive contents, clearly exposing Biden as a liar. The drive was not hacked, and the Biden's have not said the hard-drive was not Hunter's.

  41. Zakir was a dear friend of (San Francisco) SFJAZZ since the organization began in 1983, performing dozens of times on our stages, notably as part of our Sacred Space series at Grace Cathedral in duo with Joe Henderson, Pharoah Sanders, and Charles Lloyd. Additionally, he was a longtime member of the SFJAZZ Board of Trustees, and an SFJAZZ Resident Artistic Director from 2014-2016.

  42. It's not gencode, that would be false.
    20
  43. It was never about the hostages but about 14 June 2007 when Hamas took over Gaza and declared war in Israel.

  44.  Lee Garry  In America, 75 million voted for Trump, including me, and I have no experience with QAnon, don't conflate, that would be incorrect, and without fact.
    20
  45. Houthi's threatened, Trump acted, didn't you listen?

  46. 350,000 men, women and children have crossed from South America toward their final goal in United States. It's estimated that figure will increase to 500,000 before the end of the year. There's nothing extreme or right-wing about our concern at the border with Mexico.

  48. And America will be safer, thank you DJT.

  49.  @aymangaber8341  You don't know that, nor did you know what happened to al-Shifa Hospital. It's a war zone, even on the West Bank, especially in East Jerusalem during Ramadan.

  50. April to September record COOL temps where I am in Southern California. "The New Normal". We've even had snow in the Sierras already.
