I never had money or a science degree. I just watched Cosmos as a kid, devoured documentaries, and read articles on wikipedia all day.

It's something but it's not enough. There needs to be an international coalition that imposes a no fly zone over Israel, and an embargo of their ports, and sends food aid to Gaza and military aid to the PLO

People who become police usually like hurting people and people who join ICE were the bottom of the barrel that even the police wouldn't recruit

Maybe the Italians should strike again until their navy actually protects the flotilla

A Democracy filled with religious extremists.

Lol

Since the Iraqi military was either defeated on the battlefield or surrendered and US troops pulled Saddam out of a spider hole to drag him off for trial and execution, I'd call that a bad analogy.

I admit I only know the highlights. It would make sense for Hegseth to focus on appearances over substance.

Having a brain predisposed to fear is one of the hallmarks of being a Right Winger

I mean, insofar as Hegseth has internalized the culture war and can't stop being a fox news host long enough to do his job. I think priming the Military to eventually use it against the American population was the main purpose of this gathering.

He's exhausted, his job is basically begging foreigners for money and weapons, and his family has been in hiding the whole war.

Hard to say he's running the war badly considering that Ukraine still exists 3 years later when most outside observers were wondering if Ukraine would last 3 days.
