Trump has no “wasta” and it shows everytime they rub his nose in it through their guerrilla diplomacy.

A week ago he was going to “wipe out their civilization” unless they capitulated.

A week later we are in the same spot and the regime has survived, which is their only end game.

AI could give him better diplomatic arrive than his advisors, apparently.

No, I don’t care about this, because I have nothing to hide.

Most countries in Europe have cameras that scan for current registration, etc. It keeps cops off the road so they can focus on other things. It’s resource management.

Louisiana could get with the 20th century in many ways. This is one of them.

I read the book (the Fort Bragg Cartel). I wouldn’t classify anything in it as too revolutionary or insightful into Delta Force (the information is already in so much open source like Wikipedia, etc.)

She could have provided info not in the book, but I haven’t seen the evidence.

Improper analogy, as neither the Mississippi nor its navigable tributaries lie within Canadian territorial waters, nor does any part of the Gulf of Mexico

---

The Great Lakes (shared between Canada and the U.S.) connect to the Mississippi basin via the Illinois Waterway.

So the analogy stands.

Regardless, should we simply disregard Iran’s territorial right under UNCLOS?

quote:

---

Why must they be the ones to control? The Strait touches more than just Iran.

I never said they have the only right to it.

But they control at least half of it under international law.

Are we not debating political issues?

Or should every thread simply echo bashing Biden, Obama, RINOs, and other assorted “cucks”?

What is your stance on the territorial sea boundaries, and general applicability, of UNCLOS?

“To know a nation’s geography is to know its foreign policy.”

-Napoleon

Any viable peace deal for the Strait of Hormuz must recognize Iranian control because the waterway’s narrow geography places the northern shipping approaches and key monitoring zones firmly within Iran’s territorial waters and along its extensive coastline, giving Tehran inherent strategic dominance that cannot be wished away.

Ignoring Iranian control in a peace framework would undermine long-term stability, as geography ensures that freedom of navigation ultimately depends on Tehran’s cooperation; realistic diplomacy must therefore formalize Iran’s role to prevent future disruptions to global energy flows.

Iran’s geography gives it a trump card over the Strait of Hormuz—whether we like it or not—because the narrow chokepoint hugs its coastline, placing critical shipping lanes under its direct oversight.

Seeing your political opposites as “cockroaches” is exactly why this country is at an impasse.

“Let us not seek the Republican answer or the Democratic answer, but the right answer. Let us not seek to fix the blame for the past. Let us accept our own responsibility for the future.”

-JFK

Do you understand that they will forever hold the straight of Hormuz as leverage and at a moment’s notice your gas prices can and will go up multiple times in the future at the drop of a hat?

They have the geographical advantage.

Any “deal” must recognize they have the ability, and I argue the right, to control it. It’s not fair, but they are in position for this.

America has several advantages that are tied to nothing else but our geography.

“Leaked” as in putting classified bombing schedules and load outs in a Signal chat?

Phish ‘93-‘98 is my favorite era.

They also had some great shows 2017-19.

Dead ‘89 tour was peak but it really fell off between then and when Jerry died.

Dead & Co. was a straight up money grab, but I still saw them several times.
