Have to get rid of the lobbyists first. Good luck with that.

I know.

The amount of foreign flags (Israel's) in the halls and offices of Congress and the Senate is sickening.

AIPAC spends hundreds of billions buying off politicians and influencing our politics for the gain of a foreign power.

How that's been allowed is absolutely disgraceful.

Let me rephrase in a way that I’ll stand by. If you are too stupid to fill out a form 4 correctly, you shouldn’t own a firearm. Those that say the form is too hard to fill out are exactly the retards that should be rejected. Is that you? I’ve read some posts, so I have suspicions.

I do see the irony.
I don't think Iran is smart enough to have a nuclear arsenal.

But if you look at slices of our history some of our President's were so stupid they shouldn't have had a stapler within reach.

That's my take on some of them. That's internal to the US what do you think some of the rest of the world sees our competence leval at with Democrat clowns in charge every few years.

Luckily we have a semblance of checks and balances that I don't think exists in many countries.

At least I hope it's still in place having serviced delivery platforms and at times been on orders to guard tnw's.

It's a little unnerving.

Israel has also been targeted from day one. Bombings, invasions, hijackings, mass shootings, kidnappings, embassies targeted, rockets, missiles, incursions…. 24x7x365 for 70 years ish.

We have one harbor bombed and we unleash Armageddon. A couple of buildings dropped and we go berserk.

If the ME left Israel alone and focused on their economies, the place would be an economic powerhouse and a paradise for everyone. But the a-rab shitheels are too backwards to think anything but tribal revenge.

TE Lawrence predicted it in a book on 1920. He was dead nuts right.

Belligerent? We have been worse than Israel
For 130+ years…. Trying to spread Jeffersonian democracy around the world. While claiming “we’re the guys who want to be left alone.” The Global Mrs. kravitz. Busybody do gooders.

Israel would not mess with anyone if everyone (including a ton of folks here in USA) weren’t an existential threat. But everyone is. Because everyone needs an enemy and for 3,000 years+ it’s been the Heebies.

I agree that our foreign policy is unhinged. We are good bedfellows with Israel on that front.

We should have nothing to do with the ME. Israel can fight its own battles.

Supporting Israel in all of its wars and conflicts in the region is inherently against US interests. All the previous regime change wars we've fought on their behalf has been nothing but disastrous for us. Iran will be another one.

If Israel the welfare Queen wants to fight Iran, it can have at it. Just leave us the fuck out of it.

Barrel cleaning with alcohol

P
Keith Glasscock (real name) posted a YT video demonstrating the effects of CLR on a stainless steel barrel. He cut a 1-inch section from a Benchmark SS barrel and showed the etching results over different exposure times (up to 24 hrs iirc). I've seen recommendations elsewhere to use alcohol to remove CLR residue or other solvents before applying an oil patch for storage.

The other side is the most provocative and belligerent force in the ME currently. Iran hasn't invaded another country in 250 years.

And for the record, I'm not saying Iran is "good" or defending it.

But Israel is a rogue nuclear state that's involved in multiple conflicts in the region and is hellbent on starting a wider conflict with the goal of dragging us into it.

the problem is the zealots have control and the weapons to keep it.

The zealots are the ones with their grubby paws
On the red buttons, too! The rest are cowed supplicants who do what they are told and mouth the slogans… because otherwise they get thrown off roofs.

Every one under the age of 50 there has grown up under a propaganda regime of destroy Israel and the Great Satan. Do they all believe it? No.

Do enough believe it that they prop up the regime or simply “go along” until Allah wills a better day? Yup. No sense trying to change things “if it is written and Allah wills it.”

Yes, but one has pledged that as soon as they “get” nukes they will wipe the other off the map. Along with us, the Great Satan.

There is a difference there.

One of the great ironies of this war is that it's allegedly being waged because a country who doesn't have nuclear weapons and is a member in good standing of the non-proliferation treaty, is being accused by a country that secretly has nukes and isn't part of the non-proliferation treaty of attempting to build nukes (with no evidence to back up that assertion and counter to US intelligence assessments).

Things that make you go 🤔

None of us will live long enough to see those countries make peace with each other.

Best case scenario is a long term cease fire that doesn't drag the USA into anything.

Oh, I agree.

I'm being way to sensible and pragmatic.

I just find the irony of a country that has a secret stockpile of nuclear weapons and isn't part of the non-proliferation treaty accusing another country who is part of the non-proliferation treaty and doesn't have nukes to be incredibly palpable.
