US approves plan to strike Iranian targets in Syria and Iraq, officials say
  • They had no need to?

    USA is a country in North America, they are the one who station soldiers in another continent for no reason and continue to work with groups in the region to ensure instability. They should expect to be attacked.

    Here an example where USA and Iran worked together against ISIS

    "The battle of Makhmour represented another important milestone in the war against ISIS: It was the place where two foreign military interventions began. One was directed by the U.S.-led international coalition, which provided air support and later, heavy weaponry. The other, in the form of ammunition, training, and intelligence support, came from Iran. Over the course of a few short days that August, coalition airstrikes hit ISIS positions in the parched desert hills near Makhmour, leveling the playing field between the heavily armed extremists and the Kurdish fighters."

  • Canada considers sanctions on settlers in West Bank over violence
  • In the midst of housing crisis, canada allow charitable donations to these settlers companies in Palestine to go through allowing them to build new homes like crazy. They should spend that money on development within the country instead!

    On another notes, they should also hire Hamas to build the Metrolinx projects.

  • US officially blames Iran-backed group for drone strike, clearing way for retaliation
  • I don't want to debate Israel October 7 here. I used it as part to ask for definitive proofs instead of attacking people based on false allegations to gain voter support.

    The attack confirmation of tower 22 is based on USA allegations. The same people who said there are weapons for mass destruction in Iraq. While Jordan keep saying it didn't happen in their land.

    All they need is a picture of the damage. Yet all they show is satellite image of the base.

    I am just pointing the lack of credibility here.

  • Mark Zuckerberg says sorry to families of children who committed suicide — after rejecting suggestion to set up a compensation fund to help the families get counseling
  • This ignore situation were kids didn't have social media and abusers post it there. Like sexual assaults and exploitation of childrens.

    Not having a moderated platform with the ability to be private is something the platform should be held responsible for.

    Imagine you have a studium full of fans waiting for the match to start, then someone comes in with a big screen playing a sexual abuse video then leave the stadium. It is normal to sue the stadium for lack of security along with suing the abuser.

    Issues like bullying is harder but when the social network doesn't remove abuse content they are at fault.

    Facebook remove staff and systematically ignore report of these kinds because it would affect their value.

    Finall note the us government is useless and they do this for show to look cool in front of their voters. EU done more to these corporations.

  • US officially blames Iran-backed group for drone strike, clearing way for retaliation
  • Can you show me where is the baby and rape videos?

    Can you show me a video of the attack on the Jordanian base?

    Can you show me where the "weapons of mass destruction in Iraq"?

    When countries lies all the time it is normal to ask for definitive proofs instead of believing them..

  • US officially blames Iran-backed group for drone strike, clearing way for retaliation
  • Soldiers in foreign soil with no legal status of being there should not be treated as civilians and be expected to be killed by resistance groups.

    The US yet to show proofs of the attack on the "Jordanian base" or proof of "Iranian involvement"

    Jordan insists that the attack was not on its soil. Iran claims they have nothing to do with the attack.

    Considering Biden believe there were beheaded babies during October 7 attack, and the US long history of lying to be involved in wars, it would be better if they show proof even if it fabricated, before any form of escalation.

    Nikki Haley: Texas has the right to secede from the United States if it wants to
  • I was confused because I assume any state can have a referendum and decide if they want to become a country similar to what Quebec was looking for.

    While it make sense legally if you say Texas belong to America, I still feel that if the majority of people who currently lives there decided they want to be their own country, it doesn't make sense to force them to be part of the states.

  • It’s Surprisingly Easy to Live Without an Amazon Prime Subscription
  • I been anti-amazon for about 5 years now.

    Nothing lost or needed. If I need something I go to local store to find it.

    My only issue with Amazon is tools that uses their cloud services and Twitch. But since last December I decided to switch to YouTube with ad blocker.

    Planning on de-google and de-microsoft within the next two years.

  • French move to make abortion a ‘guaranteed freedom’ gains big win in lower house
  • When you debate a change of law you need to think what could go wrong. One of the issue in other countries such as Canada and the UK is sex-selective abortion:

    https://www.independent.co.uk/news/health/selective-abortions-gender-tests-girls-uk-labour-a8540851.html

    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3281173/

    There is no reason to believe this is not something need to be addressed in new laws when considering abortion.

    For example is seems that in the UK clincs are not allowed to provide information about fetus sex and restrict it to genetics information.

    In canada, there were clinic that open mainly for people to knwow the fetus sex leading to sex-selective abortion.

    https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/fetal-gender-testing-offered-at-private-clinics-1.1183673

    In the US, abortion among lower income was higher than other.

    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3780732/

    Having to abort because you can't afford it and have social security net, is different than not wanting to have a baby and different than not wanting to have a girl or a boy for social reason.

    Therefore, I argue that before a modification for a law to happen, a basic statistical analysis of abortion in the country with a few more details such as age, sex, clincs location, ethnicity and income are essential to create set of laws that support people to make the right decision.

    Note, searching for details in France is tricky because need to maybe the search need to be French to find more details.

  • If Russia plans to genocide Ukraine they would have the war with more force similar to what Israel doing in gaza. In 2 years the death toll in Ukraine vs Russia has been exceeded im 2 months by Israel.

    If Russia goal is a genocide then they need to re-evaluate their approach because they are not doing right.

    They definitely comitted war crimes but intent of genocide has not been clear compare to what Israel is doing.

    You can support Ukraine position but I don't think calling Russia attack as genocidal is accurate.

  • Multiple reasons can be achieved if the area is destabilize. The best way to do that by having an outpost there. Keep in mind The base mainly in Syria but they claim the attack was on a tower in Jordan where the Jordinian officials claim it was in Syria.

    By having a base there they can support local tribs to fight the Syrian Government, allowing Israel to take the golan highest and expanding on that front.

    They can support the kurds to control oil rich regions in exchange for oil.

    They can play victim if they want to have a war again in the middle east in case of economic needs.

    Finally it is a step forward to the great kingdom of Israel that people pretend it is not a plan.
