It probably looked good to the beancounters and efficiency consultants but I don't think it is militarily wise to have just one centrally placed launch site.
I don't know missile tech but if the Zionists' "Iron Dome" was worth anything, wouldn't you be able to see interceptor missiles targeting the incoming missiles?
I'm not an expert but this looks more like the Iron Dud to me.
Right after the Al-Aqsa Flood my dad was pontificating about how the illegal Zionist entity was a a forward defensive post, guardian western civilization against the barbarian islamic hordes. A beacon of democracy, intelligence and civilization, surrounded by evil villains. The Jewish people were presenting as some super-intelligent, super-civilized super-westerners.
The other day he unprompted told me that the zionists were committing genocide and that the illegal zionist entity should never have been founded in the first place. He then veered into talking about how it was "the Jews" who were doing the atrocities.
There are only so many massacres you can witness before you start thinking the perpetrators are the baddies.
A few hundred slow drones without volleys of ballistic missiles coming behind them were never going to have any impact. The illegal zionist entity has wrll-developed air defences and their American overlords and the US puppet states are helping shoot the drones down. You need more force to get through that.
There is no way Iran didn't know this. This means two things, either the unprovoked US-zionist terror attacks effectively wiped out Iranian missile deterrence capabilities or the Iranian leadership is scared of a full-scale war with the US and the illegal zionist entity and have opted to do only symbolic retaliation and to take yet another brazen terrorist attack on the chin.
When I read that Iran had launched 100 drones in retaliation for the unprovoked US-zionist terror attack I thought that was a really low number, far from enough to have any impact against an enemy like the US and the illegal zionist entity. Are the Iranians scared of a full-scale war and trying to deescalate by only doing a symbolic retaliation but otherwise taking yet another brazen terrorist attack on the chin?
Do this. Also, if you're nice to the store owner the price might drop. When I go to Asian markets white and introverted as I am, I pay white people prices (still competitive compared to supermarkets), but when my girlfriend who kind of looks like she could be Turkish goes and greets the staff with "Assalam aleikum" she gets ridiculous discounts, sometimes a third of the white people price.
I once saw a study saying that eating organic vegetables rather than the cheaper conventionally grown ones had no measurable health effects so you should be fine eating the cheaper conventionally grown ones. They're still as good for you. Also, sometimes you can get lower-graded vegetables cheaper. The grading is purely cosmetic, the vegetables themselves are just as tasty and healthy.
As for staples like pasta, rice and flour the cheap versions are completely fine. Higher quality pasta is better at soaking up sauce, higher quality rice has better aroma and larger grain size but the cheap stuff is just as healthy and nutritious.
Danish Public Schools in Crisis: Nearly 12% of Students Now Failing Basic Exams
Denmark’s public education system is crumbling. A new report from the Economic Council of the Labour Movement paints a bleak picture of educational decline, rising inequality, and mounting despair among the country’s working-class youth.
In the school year 2023/24, nearly 12 percent of Danish ninth-grade students failed both Danish and mathematics in their final exams, marking the highest failure rate since 2012. The trend is not isolated but growing, with failure rates increasing across all regions and social groups. The consequences are severe: without these basic qualifications, further education becomes nearly inaccessible, placing tens of thousands of children on a trajectory toward economic and social marginalization.
Do you know how to cook food that people want to eat? Do you know how to do it without products of animal origin? Congratulations, you are much more qualified at what you do than these experts.
The equivalent would be to declare that grass-fed beef is vegan and trying to cook a steak in a coffee maker.
It is not uncommon for western "experts" to know jack shit about what they're formally an expert in. They will know just enough to keep the machines running and do the paperwork. If they are experts in a field without that many machines or that much paperwork they can be completely amateurs and nobody will bat an eyelid.
It is not just geopolitically charged fields, like China experts, it is also much less contentious fields without the same pressure to reach politically charged conclusions. Western academia seems to have a profound disdain for learning beyond immediate economic utility. For instance, I recently learned that the leading researcher on Buddhism at a major Danish university doesn't speak Sanskrit, doesn't speak Chinese and doesn't speak Tibetan. They learned a little Japanese once but have long forgotten it. They are brought on mainstream media and treated as an expert.
The best thing to say about lib mass protests is that they can possibly be the wide end of a radicalisation funnel for a few people.
But other than that I don't see them having much effect.
