1) I'm on board.
2) Reasonable, as long as that stays within Russia's border.
3) Reasonable, however, a shooting first philosophy may cause others to shoot preemptively so as not to get shot first. So, the Russian version of Peace Through Strength needs revision so as not to cause instability.
4) Hell yeah!
5) Maybe. However, not for a Putin to decide such. If so, he, in effect, is the supranational entity controlling others.

I know this is off-topic, which will cause JR to stop copulating with the assortment of Michigan trout, crappie, and bass he keeps prisoner in his basement to bring us back on track, but lines such as the above and Bobko Bobkovich's earlier line about Medvedev, makes me wonder if PF exists not for the wayward pathological ingrates, but for the wayward pathological poets.

I hopped back on just to say a thing or two about bunker busters, but I have been distracted by the mellifluous banter to stay longer than expected. Publishing houses should be prowling around this dysfunctional board.

You are a hopeless uber-optimistic romantic, BB. You continually disprove that a Prussian heart is dark, rigid, and militant.


Great line!

Damn good point. It's certainly a part of the Israeli playbook. This morning's dispatches were Trump's answer to such attempts, I suppose.

I didn't see the Medvedev thing. BTW, what does he actually do?


Oh no, you aren't raining on my parade, your comments are more like a nice Spring breeze and mild warm front passing through my parade.

News / The Iran war and Poland [826]


Good point.


The question Xi or Putin may be asking though is "Do we want to find out if America will back down? Do we want to find out if there will be American support of a forceful intervention by Trump?"

Trump has shown he is willing to take it to domestic agitators as well.

With this put me in the Fan of WarSore column.

But, please tell, you are here in PF because of self-loathing, right? You were probably drawn to Poland by Kasia who you met while she served you a pint of ale while you watched your Aston Villa club (Yippee Aye Eh, Yippee Aye Oh, mother(blankety-blanks) in a North London pub. She broke your heart

But, it's not the broken heart that triggered the self-loathing. Its the realization that even though Poland is below the civilized standards of The King's Realm, that Poland is a delusional self-righteous hypocrite, a dirty church-going wh0re, she has crept into your DNA like a covid mRNA booster shot. She has seduced you. She owns you.

You'll never go back to Angloed Isle and all her majesty and shine. You know you'll never leave the bed of your shameful lover: Poland.

You're too kind. Don't forget Torq, he's got a wicked pen.

Bobko is a beast of a writer. Interesting thing about Bobko is his writing voice sounds like his actual voice, IMO.


You are more in the patrimony of a Mamet. You need to read him and watch his movies. The guy is fabulous. A native Chicagoan.

To a feeble-minded Michigander, my Buckeye elegance and savant like talent may seem boastful, but, in truth, my humility is so profound and deep that I'd blush at even thinking about mentioning my aforementioned qualities.


No kidding? I guess I stand corrected. Good for Detroit. Still, Boise's better.


Very kind of you.

Trump's a different animal. Good play by him, IMO. He knows it was nothing but a face saving move on Iran's part and it was feeble. It's kind of a backhand slap to Iran. Nobody trolls like the Trumpster.

We'll be in Poland in a couple weeks. Looking at cars to rent while we are there. The Peugeot 208 keeps popping up.

Anyone familiar with this car? Would it fit 5 people and 3 carry on bags and one bigger piece of luggage?

Breaking:

President Trump, who never ever speaks in grandiose or embellished terms, has reported that Iran and Israel have agreed to a complete and total ceasefire.

You think Russia is giving Iran some cover? Or, maybe, Pooty-Poot told the Grand Ayatollah, "I'd love to help ya, but I'm tapped. Good luck!" Or some other iteration?

With such profound musings, I see you are currently atop the Throne of Deliberation.

But to answer your question:

The kid in Boise is somewhere in the neighborhood of 40x more likely to grow up with both parents in the home.

Boise's population is growing, while Detroit's is declining. So, yes, it's a good time to bomb Iran. Not that I've concluded we should've done such yet; although, I'm leaning towards thumbs up.
