The Situation With Iran Goes Hot - Shots Fired
Buffalo_Gal replied to Hedge's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Iran issues arrest warrant for Trump that Interpol rejects Iran has issued an arrest warrant and asked Interpol for help in detaining President Donald Trump and dozens of others it believes carried out the U.S. drone strike that killed a top Iranian general in Baghdad, a local prosecutor reportedly said Monday. Interpol later said it wouldn’t consider Iran’s request, meaning Trump faces no danger of arrest. However, the charges underscore the heightened tensions between Iran and the United States since Trump unilaterally withdrew America from Tehran’s nuclear deal with world powers. Tehran prosecutor Ali Alqasimehr said Trump and 35 others whom Iran accuses of involvement in the Jan. 3 strike that killed Gen. Qassem Soleimani in Baghdad face “murder and terrorism charges,” the state-run IRNA news agency reported. </snip> -

CHAZ Seattle Observations

Heh Trump says they won't leave, so just to call it #fakenews, they will all be packing up shortly. (Wouldn't that be nice?) Welp, instead of a Kent State Moment for Trump, it may turn out that Mayor Jenny will have to stop aiding and abetting. -

There is a vast difference between different viewpoint discussions and trollish poo-flinging, however. -

The Next Pandemic: SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19

Good luck. Hubby has his blood work done Friday, and the results were already in. He was negative, so I do not think I am going to bother. -

Something everyone involved in this thread might be interested in: a free copy of How to Lie with Statistics. Pertinent review: 'How to Lie with Statistics' is a book written by Darrell Huff in 1954 presenting an introduction to statistics for the general reader. Huff was a journalist who wrote many "how to" articles as a freelancer, but was not, himself, a statistician. From the book: "This book IS a sort of primer in ways to use statistics to deceive. It may seem altogether too much like a manual for swindlers. Perhaps I can justify it in the manner of the retired burglar whose published reminiscences amounted to a graduate course in how to pick a lock and muffle a footfall: The crooks already know these tricks; honest men must learn them in self·defense." Even though this book is almost 65 years old, it remains as relevant today, if not more so, than when it was first published. if only to shed some light on how even your favorite news channel uses true facts and figures to bull#### you every day. -
There are better photos in the memes. I am not certain why these "protesters" think people will not defend themselves. That couples' home is opulent, they are both attorneys, and that is a private street (HOA, gated). But sure, break down the gate, come on in and "protest" and then whine when people defend themselves and their homes.

"Unrest" nice word choice there, Fox. Be careful what you wish for... NYPD sees 49 percent spike in officers filing for retirement amid George Floyd unrest The NYPD told Fox News on Saturday that 272 officers have filed for retirement between Floyd's death and June 23. </snip>

Well, I donno... they are trying desperately to pin the rioting and looting on him, but since it is all Democratic run cities, it is having some trouble sticking (it is not like the feds are in charge of local police departments). They were desperate to have him bring in the military so they could screech what a dictator he is (kinda like the ploys they have tried in the past against Republican Presidents who have bit on an opp), instead we watched local officials allow anarchists burn their own cities to the ground. Antifa has been declared a terrorist organization (follow the money), the statues being toppled have had regular old non-political folks doing a WTF, so they are going after those people on a federal level (no get out of jail quick card there)... I think the Ds ran this opp a little too soon. If they had waited until August, maybe September, they'd have had a better chance to muddy the waters. However, IF (and this is a big IF) the follow-the-money leads to some sort of charges against some big name donors to the anarchists, that could be a blow to the Democrats. We shall see what the rest of the summer brings. Chaz is done (winnable lawsuits will do that) and the anarchists were using chalk to "deface" on statues yesterday instead of spray paint and toppling (funny what looking at a hefty fine and 10 years in prison will do). Now the question is if people are smart enough to blame their local government (you know, the people in charge of local law and order) for police stand-down orders, allowing the rioting and looting to go on, etc., and if they do, how that will impact voting in November. -
