The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The riot started BEFORE the Guard showed up.

The riot (such as it was) was provoked by ICE raids. That was the pretext for sending in the national guard, and that was the plan all along.

And of course Israel took the lead. And they are attempting to drag us into a war. If we are worried about Iran producing nukes, then give Israel the bunkerbusters they’re asking for. But don’t commit US forces. That mess is a sink of quicksand.

And it’s not as if there aren’t warnings flashing.


In a strange echo of the prelude to the Iraq war, we now have TRUMP’s own DNI testifying that there’s no evidence Iran is building a nuclear weapon.
