Iran and Asymmetric Wars of Attrition
Sometimes I write a post where I don’t know the topic well...
Josh Marshall: "Iran’s strategy is to absorb the punishment from the skies and keep sending waves of drones into neighboring counties until the U.S. stockpiles are run dry"
We are going to be over spending on defense and debt ballooning to $50 billions soon and the fiscal hawks won't say shit

The same assholes who chastised President Biden about pulling US troops out of Afghanistan are now super quiet about thousands of Americans being stranded in the Middle East all because a white supremacist criminal wanted go on a bombing murder spree.

Surely the President’s task force on antisemitism will be looking into this pronto to figure out how this could have happened.

Former Wisconsin Chief Justice Annette Ziegler will not run for reelection
MADISON, Wis. -- Former Wisconsin Supreme Court Chief Justice Annette Ziegler will not run for reelection in 2027, she announced Monday, ending two decades of service on the state's top
Another conservative justice on the Wisconsin Supreme Court, Annette Ziegler, just announced she'll retire ahead of next year's elections.
Her announcement comes just weeks before conservatives are trying to defend a different open seat.
Liberals could emerge with a 6-1 majority by 2027.

Iran Signals a Fight to the End With Appointment of Khamenei’s Son
Mojtaba Khamenei, close to Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, is expected to take a confrontational stance toward the West.
..."In addition to his father being killed at the beginning of the U.S.-Israeli campaign, the new leader has also lost his mother, wife and a son in the strikes."
Excellent conditions for peace, etc., especially when you murder a wife and children.

I just remembered that Ronald Reagan's administration secretly sold weapons to Iran and diverted the proceeds to fund an insurgent war against Nicaragua.

A Trump Order Protected a Weedkiller. And Also a Weapon of War.
It's no accident that the commercial determinants of our food supply are also tied up in weapons design to maim and kill at scale. (Gift link)

"The glorification of cruelty and rejection of compassion don’t just shape the Trump administration’s policies. Those values are also at the core of Trump’s own character and worldview."

Lindsey Graham’s Quest to Sell Trump on Striking Iran
Few others in the president’s ear argued for the attack as effectively as South Carolina’s senior senator.
Extraordinary. Reporting by @wsj.com :
"The senator said he was already talking with Trump about further military interventions in Lebanon and potentially Cuba, which he said would happen soon. He wasn’t particularly concerned about what was next in Iran, he said."

The guy who murdered Renee Good, & his family, have just vanished. He’s probably in the witness protection program.
