Of course Kim identifies with watching Josh allen. He is extremely talented much like cam. He's one of the best quarterbacks in the league of course you want to see yourself like that. Anytime I'm throwing the football in the backyard with someone I identify as Josh ***** Allen He's entertaining because he's so goofy, but he offers no greater insight. I'm sure that there are 100 quarterbacks he would use to leverage his name. And he does the same shaft slob job on half a dozen other quarterbacks, most notably Lamar Jackson.

What I think SHOULD happen? As an ardent non-interventionist, I would have Iran agree to a JCPOA v2.0 crafted by the IAEA. In return, the international community would lift all economic sanctions on Iran, agree to a permanent ceasefire, and impose a worldwide BDS (Boycott, Divestment, and Sanction) policy against Israel if Israel does not oblige. I would also open up all channels of cultural communication with Iran as part of the deal, which would essentially be a “Trojan horse” strategy to foment internal dissent and revolution via secular humanist principles. Consider these additional questions as you assess this topic: 1. Who do you trust the most among Trump, Netanyahu, Khamenei, and the IAEA? My answer: easily the IAEA. Not even close. 2. Is Iran a rational actor or an irrational one? My answer: a rational one, believe it or not. Their observed behavior has remained consistent with a country fully aware of and completely invested in its self-preservation. A “rational actor,” as defined in this instance, understands that the single use of a nuclear weapon against Israel would equate to its own instant annihilation. Modern world history has taught us that possession of nuclear weapons equate to protection from American imperialism. Become Russia or North Korea and not Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, Somalia, Yemen, etc… 3. What is motivating the United States government in this conflict? My answer: the MIC, AIPAC, powerful individual oligarchs like Miriam Adelson, and (sadly) many Christian fundamentalists. 4. What is motivating Israel in this conflict? My answer: a quest for regional hegemony so that a Greater Israel (including Gaza, the West Bank, all of Jerusalem, the Golan Heights, southwest Syria, and southern Lebanon) can be constructed with minimal resistance. 5. Why did Israel attack Iran just days before the latest scheduled peace talks in Oman? My answer: to sabotage the peace talks. 6. Why was Trump insistent that Iran not have a nuclear energy program for civilian purposes? My answer: typical “Art of the Deal” stupidity. 7. What are the prospects for de-escalation? My answer: Frighteningly poor. The world leaders involved all appear to be sociopaths, in the clinical DSM-5 sense of the word. Tribalism is deeply entrenched and the dehumanization process is highly advanced. Iran just struck an Israeli hospital, for bleep’s sake, which I interpreted as an “oopsie!” response to all 36 of the hospitals Israel has targeted in Gaza since 10/7/23.

I strongly disagree. Israel started a preemptive war with the intention of destroying Iranian nuclear capability. If you think the Iranians, to the extent the regime survives this, won't do anything they can to get a nuke after this episode, then I have a bridge to sell you. Obviously any sort of nuclear accord that involves the survival of Fordow isn't acceptable to the Israelis. Netanyahu has been saying for years that Iran is weeks away from a nuke. So for him to justify the expense and domestic loss incurred as a result of this, Fordow--the epicenter of the Iranian nuke program--has to go. They can't take anything less. That's a corner. They can't finish this without kinetic US help. They don't have kinetic US help. The way out of the corner is kinetic US help.
-
Rather than paint themselves into a corner Isreal has cleverly manipulated the situation by placing pressure and focus on the US to become directly involved in the conflict. Publicly placing responsibility for the fate of the world exposed to the potential of Iranian nuclear weapons that don't exist at present. Playing us like a puppet. My view is stay out and leave them to sink or swim. This nonsensical world cop thing aside it's their fight not ours.
-
I don't see it that way at all. Israel was completely aware of the Natanz and Fordow facilities prior to their action. I read a detailed report of what it would take and the suggested efficacy of the US' Massive Ordnance Penetrator months ago, which isn't a guarantee. Either way, the Israelis have prosecuted this action with incredible skill and I doubt there have been any surprises other than Iranian incompetence since it began.
-
Israel painted itself into a corner. This has to end with, at the very least, Fordow destroyed. The Israelis can't do it from the air alone. So, it's either boots on the ground (which probably will require US "transportation" services at the very least) or the US bunker buster. So now Israel really needs US help to get this thing to a somewhat reasonable conclusion. Trump bought some time for negotiations but, realistically, it's going to be hard for Iran to agree to anything with Israeli jets over Tehran, and Netanyahu is going to struggle to agree to anything that doesn't involve the Iranian nuclear program physically destroyed.

Only 27 pages of Trumps lie, in 6 years???? I thought this should be like 100o pages If anyone actually listened to the dummy mouthpieces of the DumbNC

Back to the thread subject. The "two weeks" thing from Trump is getting a lot of attention by a poster in this thread. I won't comment in those threads, but...... I heard a couple days ago from an Israeli military expert who claimed that Israel could probable keep up its Air Force strikes for about :two weeks more." The next day Trump throws out the same number.

Or maybe play for a SB contender?

Shai’s game is a Jordan light with his ability to score in the midrange and get to the rim. Then Williams has some Pippen vibes at times. But OKC just isn’t very likable. I love this Pacers team. They really blew a huge upset chance with the game 4 loss. But here we are. They can still do it. Tall task, it seems like both teams defenses are feeding off the home crowd. I think Pacers have led for something like 3 minutes on the road the whole series? It’s been a great series though. This level of defense is 90’s like and so enjoyable. I hope the Pacers can pull it out. TJ McConnell has been insanely impressive. Siakem as well. Toppin has really helped when he’s been on. OKC just looked asleep tonight. They feed off those fans. It’s a home series it seems. I expect them to close it out. Congrats to the Pacers either way. Can’t wait for game 7!

Um......Cam's a clown
-
Why did they get rid of him?
-
I have to admit that I didn't expect Indiana to win tonight, but they continue to impress.......it is a tall order to win a Game 7 on the road, but anything seems to be possible with this team. If they hadn't blown Game 4, this could've been a closeout game...... Looking forward to Sunday night!!

I hope Ray sees this Studies Barry's feet Use a jump rope. Get flexible Unpredictable feet. That's the gas

I do not understand people knocking this policy. Did people not watch football pre-Josh Allen? If I was a season ticket holder watching my tickets go for $10 a ticket in December when face value was $100, I would have killed for this policy. This is a really good gesture by the team to keep season ticket holder loyalty. Something the Bills absolutely should have done during the drought.

If I slept 10 straight hours I'd wake up in a puddle.

Aight, sorry I ***** up Its Barry Here he is https://youtu.be/gSCG6NGUCE8?si=IH7FgNTPcyaXAWi6

I'm actually surprised AI / headset exercises aren't a bigger thing, especially in pre draft workouts and such. You could really gauge a RB's vision reading blocks. Trent Richardson would've failed... Get a good idea of how a QB holds up under pressure and his feel in the pocket.
-
We (the 90’s Bills) also beat each of the teams we lost to in the Super Bowls I might add! 👀. And to your point that was celebrated naught…
-
Yes he is He also was a very talented quarterback who terrible shoulder injuries really ruined his ability to throw a football The one thing Josh always needs to keep healthy is that shoulder because it is a billion dollar shoulder
-
That was a dope watch! Cam is very entertaining

God bless you bro I'll say a prayer for you and your family I dig it.. I was teasing in my comment but I could tell you're a tough cookie!
