So long as the US doesn't get involved, I'm good. Let the kids fight.

Maybe the UK can intervene.
the US is already involved....Iran is the theocratic hell hole it is because of the US. Our CIA overthrew Iran's secular democratically elected government in 1953 and installed a brutal puppet dictator who oppressed the people of that country for 26 years until he was finally overthrown. And in that collapse a bunch of lunatic religious nut-jobs were able to fill the power vacuum and seize control. It continued on, as the US has declared constant economic warfare on Iran ever since the fall of the Shah in 1979. It continued on even further when the US directly supported Iraq in it's brutal 8 year invasion of Iran- even selling Iraq chemical weapons (how do you think Cheney and Rumsfield knew Saddam had WMD....they kept the receipts) in the '80s which devastated Iran and killed over 1 million Iranians. US even blew up an Iranian airlines Airbus killing nearly 300 passengers during that war. US kills Iranian targets with bomb drones to this day. Iranians really should hate the US. Our leaders in DC have given the people of that country plenty of reasons to hate the US. 

The US is directly involved in that Israel's military would not be able to wage this war without the full-stop backing of the US providing it free advanced weaponry at expense of the US taxpayer and giving it political cover on the worlds stage vetoing and blocking any kind of UN resolution or sanction. 

We're already directly involved. That ain't changing. UK intervening? UK is America's little toy lapdog. They don't do jacksh*t unless we say jump. They are weak, ineffective cowards who take their marching orders from the US.

I don't US troops involved in this at all. I know we're involved. We're involved in almost every county's business.

The UK comment was flippant, because they are the ones who started all of this shit.

Just deserts

https://www.thejc.com/news/israel/iranian-general-killed-in-damascus-strike-reportedly-planned-october-7-attacks-urhpihbx
maybe the IDF should've air struck Netanyahu too- as it's HIS GOVERNMENT that has been secretly funding Hamas for years and using the Qataris to do so.

Netanyahu wanted to use Hamas to weaken the Palestinian Authority and keep them at each others throats, vying for power, fractured so there would be even less chance than the already slim chance of a unification of the West Bank and Gaza and a two state solution. Divide and conquer.

Would expect nothing less from a proven liar wannabe dictator punk and his thug government that is under heavy influence and whose grip on power relies on a coalition with a dirtbag far-right extremist ultra-national fascist nazi like theocratic party the Shas.

And....this is why Israel hitting an embassy and receiving zero pushback from the UN or US was unacceptable and dangerous...creates a precedent that hey, it's OK, nothing'll happen to us.....

Ecuador just raided a Mexican embassy to arrest a former Vice President of there's. Mexico has condemned the attack and has severed all diplomatic ties with Ecuador.

Even the US/Soviets at the height of the cold war never dared to dream of trying any sh*t that reckless and crazy and going after each others embassy compounds.

It is pretty amazing how much light there is even when the moon blocks 99% of the sun. We were lucky to get a clear, really beautiful day. The total eclipse was pretty moving.

Cloud deck in MSP was impenetrable. Streetlights didn't even come on here.

The hype and overblown preparations for the eclipse around here kind of made me indifferent to it. But once it occurred and I was looking at the corona without any kind of eye protection I was all in on it. It was very cool. I can definitely see how ancient peoples absolutely lost their shit when total eclipses occurred.
