It’s stale news now; I shouldn’t have to do it.

Trump thought Iran was going to surrender after the ayatollah was killed , because Israel told him so. Now he has mo backup plan, and they don’t look ready to surrender

Particularly this line. All of this comes after the reporting earlier that Trump approved the attack. Qatar is pissed. They kicked out Iranian diplomats.

But the bolded is weird. He's saying that Israel shouldn't have bombed South Pars but if Iran hits Qatar LNG facility again then the US will blow up South Pars completely even if Israel is against it? What? Wasn't Israel the one that wanted to blow it up? Why would they be against it?

My guess is he's trying to save face with the Qataris and Gulf states a bit and both he and Israel know it's in their interest to knock around Israel a bit.

NO MORE ATTACKS WILL BE MADE BY ISRAEL pertaining to this extremely important and valuable South Pars Field unless Iran unwisely decides to attack a very innocent, in this case, Qatar - In which instance the United States of America, with or without the help or consent of Israel, will massively blow up the entirety of the South Pars Gas Field at an amount of strength and power that Iran has never seen or witnessed before.

Bay County Sheriff’s Office said Joseph Garrett Duggar, 31, who appeared on the TV show “19 Kids and Counting,” was arrested Wednesday for crimes against a minor that allegedly occurred in Panama City Beach.

BCSO said Duggar has been charged with lewd and lascivious behavior, including molestation of a victim younger than 12, and lewd and lascivious behavior conducted by a person 18 or older.

We’re told Bay County investigators were contacted Wednesday by a Tontitown police detective about a report of past sexual abuse. The 14-year-old victim, during a forensic interview, disclosed what happened with Duggar during a family vacation in Panama City Beach when she was 9, BCSO says.

Tempting, but I decided to limit my search to option #1.

I filtered for Latest, and began scrolling. Every single entry was from a well-dressed hooker, available for a "massage."

because if it did go on much longer markets would plummet. And if the markets plummeted Trump would be forced to stop this, and then markets would go back up. So they stay high because everyone knows they have to be kept high.

It's the fact that Al Jazeera which is Qatari propaganda and tends to be sympathetic towards Iran and antagonistic towards the US and Israel is publishing an op ed that is stronger defense of the action than US media.

And what the means for the future of the gulf and their relationships with Israel both in the context of this war and the long term.

And Biss would probably pick up some votes if Bushra or Simmons dropped out too.

Biss was always the guy for the district. It’s a heavily Jewish progressive district with rising rates of middle eastern/asian immigrants. Bias was the guy that could unite all these factions.

Kat got outside money and had the name recognition from online but most of the district was not a fan of hers as a carpetbagging lightweight.

Apparently you want people "weak on security" to be the Director of the National Counterterrorism Center.

It's hard to remember aspects of law that haven't been relevant to your practice for 50 years. But I can't believe that any attorney wouldn't remember that filings have procedures.

So I'm going with early stages of dementia.

Trump noted that it only took one mine-laying ship from Iran to destroy vessels in the Strait.

"So it's a little unfair," he griped. "You know, you win a war, but they have no right to be doing what they're doing. But we're hitting them very hard, and today is a big day where we're pounding a certain area that has very much to do with the Strait."

I think their insurance to cover kids during a weather event skyrocketed and instead of paying the premium, they decided to eliminate the risk. Don’t pay that premium and prematurely close all the schools in any predicted event.

They save money and out the burden on the parents to a)stay at home with the kids and b) house them during bad weather
