seriously, attacking vessels carrying Iraqi oil, in Iraqi waters, is one of those questionable decisions by some Iranian or proxy commander, like lobbing a missile at Turkey

IT WAS ALL A LIE | Kirkus Reviews β€œBlame me”: A one-time Republican operative recounts the transformation of the big-tent GOP into an organ of white nationalism.

this might be relatively deep for an ex-conservative's take

this was thought provoing
I do think the Wilhoit definition is descriptive, but maybe not *just* of conservatism, maybe of anything illiberal
so your definition is more specific to conservatism
one further question: is the difference between conservatism & fascism mostly one of degree?

It Wasn't Fascism All Along Conservatism was a distinct ideology but it is dead and it is not coming back.

it's (yet another) reason i reject the 'we need a normal centre right back' notion

i've got time for people who defected to our side, but anyone who went along with this is never to be trusted with governance ever again

It's drones getting through, so not that simple
The fancy interceptors & big radars are for ballistic missiles

BTW that is about Israeli citizens inside Israel proper, not the occupation - some people will try to tell you there isn't discrimination inside Israel proper

Yes And: this is to me the canonical post about that specific fallacy (partially memorable because "everyone who <did bad thing> should be lightly dusted in flour and left out in the rain" is an all-time Tumblr threat)

UPDATE: Trump says Kushner helped convince him to go to war with Iran The disclosure highlights Kushner's massive financial conflicts.

More on the Gulf states bribing Trump & Kushner, possibly in a pro-war direction
Kushner led the fake negotiations, and reportedly spun the results to Trump as showing the need for war (you don't want an "Obama deal", do you, sir?)

They might have bribed him into starting this
They definitely bribed a lot of Americans into being even more hostile to Iran than they would have anyway

Chubb set as main U.S. insurer for Persian Gulf shipping amid Iran war The insurance giant will work with the U.S. Development Finance Corporation to help backstop shipping.

The same company that bonded Trump out in his defamation trial has been tapped to help the government provide shipping insurance in the Straight of Hormuz war zone.

I asked President Trump about the FBI reportedly seizing election records in Arizona. He said they must have done that because it was a β€œrigged” election. I pointed out to him that his own AG said there was not measurable voter fraud to overturn that election. Then he called me a rotten reporter.

Under no circumstances should Dems provide money for the Iran War. It becomes a ratified war approval. They should not game out being tough on Iran in ads or whatever. Do the right and Constitutional thing.
