This is pure distraction.

"THE MOST POWERFUL MILITARY IN THE WORLD!!!1! WITH THE BEST LOGISTICS EVAHHH" just had its ass handed back to it on a silver platter, by a country that's been sanctioned to third-world status for nearly fifty years, using jury-rigged surplus Cold War weapons, and no advanced technology base. It wasn't even because US sailors were cowards either. US military leadership was hollowed out because Pete "Whiskey Leaks" Hegeseth has less balls than a eunich and projected this insecurity onto the Pentagon.

Kash Patel pulled this same nonsense after being raked over the coals for being worthless. Proclaiming he lead the FBI instopping "radical left terrorist plots" by inventing them out of thin air; remember the "Turtle Island Liberation Front" who was motivated by Native American reparations, of all things!

Tulsi Gabbard herself was a registered Democrat for 20 years, and switched sides after Hawaii realized she was a political girlfailure, and a high-ranking member member a totally-not-sex-cult (

). It would be funny if it wasn't all so stupid.

Well Tulsi did recently got fired so this isn't exactly a complete distraction.

Also Iran literally got those missle from Uncle Sam lol.

Hey now for all the decades where America has been arming Taiwan and instigating problems with its Filipino and Japanese proxies, it’s high time norinco and other Chinese mil-industrial complex entities started profiting from irans arms trade and to test Chinese weapons against American and nato forces. Same principle applies and the scales urgently need to be rebalanced to equity. Way I see it, America is in hoc to China for at least decades worth of arms sales to Iran to be targeted against American forces.

Iran knows the Russians will never provide them with the best weapons necessary to counter Israel. Most of the Israelis are from former USSR countries especially Russians. Putin’s oligarchs are mostly Zionists which is why Iran doesn’t get the best Russian weapons. Iran cannot trust any country except China. China should be firm that any weapons sales to Iran mean no more trying to balance China by cozying up to India. Iran wants Chinese money and technology and then gives India the Chabahar Port. China must get full control of Chabahar Port under any deal with Iran.

On a related note, Europe is delusional.

Ubisoft's co-founder Claude Guillemot dies in plane crash​

PARIS, June 20 (Reuters) - Claude Guillemot, who co-founded French video-game publisher Ubisoft (UBIP.PA) with his brothers in 1986, has died, the company said on Saturday.

"Ubisoft ‌was deeply saddened to learn of the death of Claude Guillemot, co-founder of the group and chairman of Guillemot Corp, in an accident," the statement said.

The Reuters Daily Briefing newsletter provides all the news you need to start your day. Sign up here.

"Our thoughts are with his family ⁠and loved ones during this difficult time. No further statements will be made at this time." it added.

Guillemot, 69, died Friday in a plane crash in La Baule, a resort town on France's Atlantic coast that was scheduled to host an air show this weekend, newspaper Ouest-France reported.

He was one of ‌two ⁠people aboard the twin-engine Cessna 421 plane, the newspaper said. Both passengers died in the incident, Ouest-France said.

Guillemot helped transform Ubisoft from a mail-order software business into ⁠one of the world's largest video game companies, before serving as chair of the family's hardware arm Guillemot Corporation.

He ⁠worked largely behind the scenes as the operational backbone of the family's broader entertainment business, while ⁠his brother Yves became the public face of the gaming giant as its long-serving CEO.

Didn't Starmer meet with Takaichi last week to reaffirm GCAP timeline?

Meanwhile, the UK defense minister resigns, UK defense secretary resigns, and soon the UK Prime Minister resigns.

GCAP is going to be super delayed now isn't it?

After India tacitly allowed a US sub to kill hundreds of Iranian sailors, it would be the height of stupidity to allow an India to ”rebalance” against a China which not only provided the resources to strike back at Israel and the U.S., but also provided diplomatic cover as well. China and Pakistan were the ones who warned Israel against assassinsting Iranian diplomats.

btw it’s delicious that the U.S. went to such great lengths to deny China high end chips, only to have China master the entire process and to then turn around and ban the export of tungsten and minerals needed for tsmc and Japanese foundries to produce chips. This is what the old Europeans called god’s will.

The former cabinet minister Lord Falconer told the BBC yesterday that the prime minister “has absolutely no authority left because everybody assumes Andy Burnham is about to challenge for the leadership and everybody assumes he’s going to win.”

Ok so UK is a s*show but you have to give it to them for their titles.

India was definitely involved in giving intelligence to the US about the Iranian submarine. The Iranian submarine was unarmed and was on a friendly visit to India. Then after it was struck, India didn’t even rescue the survivors. Iran should not forget this shameful betrayal by India.
