The pathocracy has to go. Can we the people use 'Force Majure' to invalidate our social contract with them? Of course not, the deck is always stacked against the players. What do we do?

If ship insurers can use force majeure, then so can the people. The USA is overripe for a general strike.

Thx for exposing G7's inability to save US imperialism. The current administration is at its weakest and will weaken further, because Iran's only real condition is that US forces agree to a formal truce. US labour organizers must seize this time and build for a May 1st general strike to end the war and maybe win some other major changes. Just sayin'.

Hope Trump throws Bibi under the bus. He can blame him for everything.

Bibi under the bus will only work if ISR cannot continue to attack Iran after a US withdrawal...

Aren't we lucky to have Trump. The ego tripping big slick operator loved by the Israelies.

He thinks he deserves a peace prize..how about jackass of the year award. We need a recalibrating

in DC.

Reaping the delusion of Adelson wagering genocide on the Orange rapist’s delivery of illegal settlements.

Lie down with rabid dogs (US and Israel) and wake up with rabies.

Thanks for calling AI a bubble. But shouldn't the fact that it's a bubble be enough to scare the Gulf guys off? I honestly don't get any of this.

KP gives me & Soldier Schweik times alone to talk out What War and What War Expenses WWE. Schweik is upset with me crossing hairs that our Head of State splurts dirty vulgar What Hashim. "Back up," he says. "If he's Head of State he's in the toilet on the Ship of State."

And if the financing of these deals goes through then will be even more exposed to financial blackmail by Qatar and Saudi Arabia. What happens in the near future if these two decide they want America to fight a war for them?

Right. al Qaeda and ISIS are both Sunni. bin Laden (although I think born in Yemen, grew up in Saudi) and many of the 911 hijackers were Saudi. Iran is Shia - that's why there is this split between Iran and the GCC states. Iran's allies (not terrorists) are other Shia, like Hezbollah and the Houthis - both people's militias. Hezbollah was formed to defend Lebanon from the many attacks by Israel when the Lebanese army folded. The Houthis are indigenous Yemenis who fought Saudi occupation of Yemen. But because they resist Greater Israel they are labeled "terrorists". Both primarily DEFENDED their countries and people.

WE formed al Qaeda to kill those dirty Russkis in Afghanistan and ISIS to invade Syria from Iraq to overthrow Assad.
