Mark Ames: Welcome to Radio War Nerd, I’m Mark Ames in Rochester, New York and I’m joined by the War Nerd in Sofia, Bulgaria. How are ya John? John Dolan: Well, my migraines have come back and apparently the only treatment approved in Bulgaria is.. trepanning

For decades world media labeled murders like this as "relative calm in the territories" because no Israeli was injured or killed. The "cycle of violence" only begins once Palestinians fight back.

NYTimes and Financial Times on Yahya Sinwar's death.

75 years of ethnic cleansing, theft, and subjugation. I don’t want to hear anything about how bad you think Hamas is. If an invading army came to your city to terrorize you and expel you from your home, you’d pick up a weapon too.

I don’t understand who this is supposed to be owning. His family hid in a bunker because they had a (since proven true; look up the Lavender program) fear that Israel will kill women and children related to Hamas officers?

Whole villages from every faith and faction, with centuries of history and culture, are being razed to the ground by air strikes and now planted IDF detonations across south #Lebanon. All their displaced residents can do is watch.

Israel has announced plans to strike Hizbullah’s "economic power" tonight, specifically Qard al-Hasan and potentially other civilian institutions, alleging that they are "used to finance Hizbullah's terror activities." But these strikes don’t actually target Hizbullah’s finances

he's so jazzed that nobody touches the french fries, you can tell that's something that's been at the back of his mind for decades

By Brodsky’s logic — blowing up banks in civilian buildings is “sanctions enforcement” — 9/11 was a brilliant act of economic statecraft.

Honest question, one that everyone should be able to answer: Do Gazans have a right to violently resist their own dispossession? Or are they obligated to submit to being forced from their homes and ethnically cleansed?

Netanyahu's Channel 12 propagandist Amit Segal: "We can keep denying that what's happening (in north Gaza) is an implementation of the Generals' Plan - emptying of the Strip, starving the terrorists, eliminating them, capturing them - that's in my opinion what's happening here"

The closed borders of today have removed this sentiment. This sentiment would reemerge in full if people could travel and work freely between these countries.

THIS VENUE IS DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF A TRAIN STATION! EASY TRANSFER TO BART AND CALTRAIN! YOU ARE SOLVING PROBLEMS THAT DO NOT EXIST!

Why would Hezbollah store money in a bunker under a hospital? Hospitals aren’t safe from IDF attacks, they’ve bombed and shelled 30 hospital in Gaza! Israel wants to bomb hospitals in Lebanon to create terror among the civilian population, it’s the Dahyeh doctrine in action

Of course we all know the famous “I must be loyle to my capo.” line but imo the line before it is easily 10x funnier

still funny

The Dems should cut an ad that says Trump doesn't even know who Rommel was. The party is obsessed with getting older, affluent, white Republican men to turn on Trump and this would actually piss them off.

on the modern job site you still have plenty of no-work and no-show jobs it’s just that unlike 50 years ago they aren’t union guys, they are hordes of inspectors in white hard hats with B.S. and M.S. degrees in cartelized $80k/year engineering positions
