It's gotta be top 5 for sure. We targeted that school in cold blood. Didn't bother to check our intel. Just launch the rockets and kill some Arabs.

Absolutely disgusting. A dark day.

I say this with full knowledge of the historical record, but this is shaping up to be maybe the most horrific thing we've done in west/central asia/middle east

don't worry, the U.S. is fully capable of removing mines from the Strait of Hormuz, we didn't just decommission out last mine- sweepers in the area and replace them with Littoral Combat Ships (the worst boats in the fleet by wide agreement) with untested mine interdiction upgrades

Policymakers seem intent on learning the wrong lesson. Some days it feels like their primary goal is life is to learn the wrong lesson

Not just open source evidence. We targeted the school

The public health field has bent over backwards to assuage the β€˜concerns’ of anti-vaxxers for almost 3 decades now. It’s not working.

The way forward is stigmatizing these child-killing freaks and mandating that every kid gets a jab. Expand access, sure but that’s not going to move the needle.

One good thing about Nuremberg 2 is that there aren't any valuable scientists to worry about

Bellingcat analysis makes a strong case that a US tomahawk hit that girl's school in Iran, contrary to U.S. government claims

I agree. But the media SHOULD press them on it. Seems like she was talking about boots on the ground, but why should we clarify for her? Let her clarify herself

New video footage shows a US Tomahawk missile hitting an IRGC facility in Minab, Iran, on Feb 28, showing for the first time that the US struck the area. The footage also shows smoke already rising from the vicinity of the girls’ school, where 175 people were reportedly killed, including children.

It was. But the generals wanted to delay it for operational capacity or some shit and biden told them to fuck off. So the media lost their minds

He's right. The withdrawal was exactly as messy as basically every military withdrawal is. The media scrutinized the really bad parts, which were really bad!

But Trump just bombed a girls school, maybe using a double tap strike, which is as horrifying as possible and there is not the same coverage

Data scientist hell is when you're trying to grab the data from somewhere and the only source is a PowerBI dashboard with no download button.

Weird how creating conditions where powerful people never have to face real accountability leads to powerful people abusing their power. Who could have predicted that?

Ok but he did NOT get it obscured when he found out what it meant, he got it obscured when it came out on the campaign trail.

Big difference.

The use of AI to identify targets (without subsequent specific human confirmation) should be considered a war crime.

And by that I don't mean "we should make a rule" I mean that straightforward application of the existing rules would tell you that it is a war crime.
