Not currently but took me a lot longer to find a job last go around. The H1Bs plus AI cuts are pretty rough.

Well, this definitely means they have to bring in the USAF Necromancer General to reanimate Kahmeini, now.

I literally just told you what's not better. The job market in my sector is worse.

I would think that the heavy bombing of targets to take out capabilities was a great start but Iran has enormous potential with drone capabilities even if leaderships are severed. You pretending that in less than 2 weeks Iran's 47 years of military mischief will be destroyed 100 % so they can no longer pose a threat is amazingly stupid. Iran is a large country run with an iron hand by people that have no regard for human life as shown over and over. I suggest changing your tampon

I’m taking the Energy Secretary’s comments at face value. He says we aren’t ready. I’m saying we should have been ready. I think any remotely rational person would agree with that.

The entire Persian Gulf and the Western part of the Arabian Sea is not safe either.

Hopefully the green light will be given soon for the citizens to once again rise up. They need weapons and organization. And I do believe we will put special forces on the ground to help.

Then maybe the last 45 years of policies should have been different than weakening the country so the first decent attempt at dealing with Iran could appease your understanding of why it’s taking longer to handle than 10 days

GB News is reporting what the call “special forces planes” taking off from RAF bases. They’re just planes they could use to jump from though. Idk what time it is there right now but if they plan to go tonight it could make sense. I’ll try to find a clip on YouTube

Dude stop it… it’s to the point now that every blunder is excused as part of the “plan”… Hegseth unqualified to be running a war … no coherent plan damn strategy changes every time Trump gets in front a microphone…

My guess is it was actually the initial strike by Israel actually killed too many people. Trump likely wanted to do something similar to In Venezuela but didn’t have anyone to turn to really at the point.

As I said that’s a total shot in the dark for sure though.
