President die geen ‘eindeloze oorlogen meer’ beloofde, mengt zich in nieuwe oorlog met Iran nrc.nl/nieuws/2025/06/23/presi…


Bezorgdheid en woede over aanval voeren boventoon nrc.nl/nieuws/2025/06/23/bezor…


I'm worried about the threat of escalation by a group of weak-minded, egomaniacal religious fanatics who maintain their tenuous grip on power through the use of propaganda and by repressing dissent.

And don't get me started on the Iranians.

Das Bild zeigt eine atemberaubende Dämmerungsszene. Der Himmel ist in verschiedenen Blautönen gehalten, von einem tiefen Dunkelblau am oberen Rand bis hin zu einem sanften, fast orangefarbenen Glanz am Horizont, wo die Sonne gerade untergeht. Die Wolken sind weich und diffus, mit einigen dunkleren Streifen, die sich über den Himmel ziehen. Im Vordergrund sind die Silhouetten von Bäumen und Hügeln zu sehen, die sich gegen den Himmel abzeichnen. Die Szene vermittelt eine ruhige und friedliche Atmosphäre, typisch für die Zeit kurz nach Sonnenuntergang.

The image shows a man with a serious expression, looking out of a vehicle window. He is wearing a white shirt and appears to be in a car or bus. The background is dark, suggesting it might be nighttime or the vehicle is in a shaded area. The man's face is partially visible, with his eyes looking forward and his mouth closed. The text overlay reads: "Me traveling to another city because I'm too scared to ask the bus driver to stop." This text is in white font with a black outline, making it stand out against the darker background. The overall tone of the image is humorous, as it plays on the idea of someone being so cautious that they would rather travel a long distance than ask for help.

May 26, 1637, the Puritans and their allies surround the Pequot Indian stronghold called Mystic Fort near what is now Stonington, Connecticut. They set it ablaze, then shoot those who flee the flames. By dawn, over 400 are dead—mostly women and children.

And yet, we still call Puritans the “peaceful” settlers.

I mean, I'm not dumb.
I'm vaguely aware of the propagandistic BS of the US saying we 'are bringing democracy' to these countries we interfere with.

But...if I was going to give the US a grade on its success rate, I mean, come on.

Everything the US touches is literally a bag of poo for the people there.

Everywhere.

God we suck.

I think I was about 12 when the US bombed Libya. I was very worried about it. I wrote in my diary, “Why does America think it’s the world’s police?”
