Isn't that why they voted for him in the first place? They don't want no Washington insider who knows what they are doing.

I mean the article doesn't claim it was. I thought this was a pretty common saying.

He has already been impeached twice.

You just got to build an actual nuke before you build the power plants.

I disagree, warning signs and public health campaigns did a number on tobacco sales. We have almost snuffed out smoking from those efforts.

They would have fought, but they would have been demoralized.

They also would have likely been replaced by a Russian sympathizer or asset and the US/West would be very wary to send all sorts of expensive weapon systems to Ukraine.

If they assassinated Zelensky like they had planned, it probably would have been.

Good question. My only guess is Arab neighbors make them nervous enough to ramp up slowly.

Interesting. So is the harm just completely overblown?

Well yeah, Iran probably could make a nuke today with what they have. The difference is if they did that and shot it at Israel and the nuke fails they would still have a dirty bomb plan B.

What's to stop Iran from just launching a dirty missile at Israel? Wouldn't interpreting it still cause a bunch of nuclear waste in Israel?

Not advocating for that, but I am just surprised I never see the topic come up.

When has that not been the case?

You could do that by slapping export tariffs on things. It still harms whatever industry you do that to though.

They are so xenophobic, that in the 19th century the US had to threaten to shell their government with a fucking warship to even get them to talk to them.

A lot of things eat a lot of other things too. The only concern I can think of is being afraid that something worse might somehow fulfill its biological niche.

So you're saying it will get better

Why not edit them to be sterile eventually. Do they really provide a real benefit?

How many are starving or dehydrated to death everyday?

Shame? They should be fined and charged the entirety of the mitigation costs.

Thicker with a removable battery please.
