Lmao, the Zionists already exaggerating the attack, saying 400 missiles were launched in a desperate attempt to cope about their failed air defense.

I don't have evidence, but I bet it was fewer than 100.

hahahaha tinfoil dome ain't shit if they don't get advance warning

WE'RE LIVE YA ALLAH

Israel Channel 14: In a message from Tel Aviv to Tehran via Washington, Israeli Government informed the Iranian side that it will level and destroy every single Iranian facilities in the event of any attack by Iran against the Jewish State

There's a shooting in Tel Aviv going on right now, 2 shooters and over 10 injuries

edit: there's a video, I can count a few dead bodies on the ground

edit2: they're wearing IDF uniforms???

edit3: Only one guy is armed the other one is just chilling??????

dead body

Remember when Israel said they would hit Iran back twice as hard?

This is going to escalate very rapidly.

Milei vetoes university funding increase hours after massive march

The opposition is expected to call for a session in Congress to try and overturn it

President Javier Milei finally vetoed the bill that had granted a funding increase for public universities. The president went through with the measure just a few hours after the massive march on Wednesday protested this decision in cities across Argentina. The President’s Office account on X confirmed Milei would overturn the bill before the decree including the veto was published in the Official Gazette shortly after midnight on Thursday.

The decree states that the decision was made because the bill “clearly violated the current legal framework” and did not consider the measure’s fiscal impact nor specify where the money would come from. It added that compliance would have made Argentina’s fiscal sustainability “considerably more difficult” as it claimed that an “extraordinary and unforeseen funding source would be needed” to finance the raise. The communiqué published on X called the funding increase law “irresponsible” and said Milei would veto it as well as any other bill that did not specify funding sources and jeopardized fiscal balance.

It's literally less than 1% of the GDP or something like that lmfao. However, when it comes to buying submarines from France or armored vehicles from the US, there's a sudden need to stop talking about fiscal balance...

“It is time for lawmakers to understand that they cannot do demagogic populism with taxpayers’ money, and start acting with the responsibility that this moment demands,” the release said. “The proper place to discuss university funding is during the 2025 National Budget debate.”

Despite the veto and its harsh rhetoric, the government said it has a “commitment with public universities.”

“This administration will not give in to the media show, irresponsible bills and the manipulation of a noble cause for partisan means,” they added. “The government’s goal is clear: end the impoverishing model that has been in place for the last 100 years and make Argentina great again.”

Yes. They used the "Make Argentina Great Again" slogan. They're completely out of this place, they just look upon the US and cream their pants over it. It's pathetic, truly truly pathetic. They're alien to our society and to our culture, which is why they'll end up being destroyed one after another. They can't even come up with something original for once, so much for innovation under capitalism..

On Thursday, opposition deputies are expected to request a special session to debate the veto on Wednesday, October 9. Congress can reject a presidential veto only if two thirds of lawmakers from both the Lower and Upper House vote to overturn it. If those conditions are not met, the veto will remain in place. This is the second time Milei has used the veto power since he became president. The first time was in early September, when he overturned a pension increase.

In mid-September, Argentina’s Senate passed legislation securing all university personnel bimonthly budget increases and monthly pay rises for university personnel indexed to inflation. Less than 24 hours later, Milei said he would block it, but waited until the second university march of the year was carried out to comply with his promise.

Same decision, different story?

Three weeks ago, Milei secured a major victory when the Lower House voted to uphold his presidential veto overturning a pension increase that had been approved by both chambers. Even though most deputies voted to reject the president’s decision, it wasn’t enough to reach two thirds.

Crucial in that case were five deputies who had initially backed — and even promoted — the bill but ended up changing their stance after meeting with Milei. The five are members of the centrist bloc Unión Cívica Radical (UCR) and four of them were sanctioned by the party for going against the position held by the majority of their bloc mates.

(We will remember their names for when our time comes)

However, things may be different this time. Assuming all deputies attend the voting session, the government needs at least 86 votes to uphold the veto. In the August 15 session, the university funding bill was approved 143 to 77 — one abstention — as 35 deputies were absent. All eyes will now be on those who did not attend last time, as most of them are members of the opposition. The government would need the backing of 9 additional lawmakers to reach 86. As of now, the numbers don’t add up for Milei.

The UCR will request the session with the backing of almost the entire bloc, a source from the party confirmed to the Herald. Three of the five deputies that met with Milei — Martín Arjol, Pablo Cervi and Federico Tournier — may not back the veto. They had voted for the university funding bill, and have close ties with the rectors of their respective provinces. “The government doesn’t have it easy,” the UCR source said. Luis Picat and Mariano Campero, the other two, will likely vote for the veto to remain in place. They were both absent at the time of voting during the session, “and will surely do that again.”

Almost all the votes against the bill in the Lower House were from ruling coalition La Libertad Avanza (LLA) and right-wing bloc PRO, Milei’s main ally in Congress. PRO has not made any statements on their vote so far, and a lawmaker from the bloc told the Herald their position is not defined yet. “It all depends on PRO,” said a LLA source, who added that there may be clashing opinions within their ally party.

we literally depend on neoliberals lmfao

Anyways, I went to the march carrying my Palestinian flag because there is ONE BIG STRUGGLE and all well-meaning struggles are part of it. Overall it was a good experience, lots of people but it was better organized than the last one, meaning that if you needed to get out for whatever reason, the sidewalks were mostly available for you to use. I went with some of my university friends, that's the way to go. One of our Spanish History professors was seen carrying a flag with the Hispanic Visigoth Cross lmfao, just shit you get to see in marches. They're beautiful, I can't stress that enough. I love them, the drums, the people, the flags, everything about it is awesome. Some individuals shouldn't have been there but it's a big march anyways.

Here's a neat picture of the massive size. Lots of people are left out of the picture because they're marching in the streets around the Congress, unseen due to the buildings.

Meanwhile milei and his party hosted a rally in a park and they couldn't fill it. They don't have this power of mobilization and we must use it to our advantage.

Today has been the wildest day in college football in a while.

#1 Alabama lost to unranked Vanderbilt. I don't even know how to properly describe this one for foreigners. It's like the US losing to Singapore in Olympic basketball.

#4 Tennessee lost to unranked Arkansas

#10 Michigan lost to unranked Washington

#11 USC lost to unranked Minnesota

~~#8 Miami most likely going to lose to unranked California (Berkeley)~~ Those Berkeley hippies blew it!

EDIT: I'm just gonna post some links to the Bama-Vandy game/aftermath to let y'all enjoy the fun of college football a bit.

::: spoiler Tweets Two weeks ago, legendary former University of Alabama Crimson Tide head coach, Nick Saban, who retired this year, said the stadium of the Vanderbilt University Commodores is the only stadium in the Southeastern Conference (the Premier League of college football) where it isn't hard for a visiting team to play. Vanderbilt is known as the "Harvard of the South", and Bama is basically only good at sports. University of Alabama Crimson Tide football is by far the most important cultural and economic driver in the entire state of Alabama. The Crimson Tide are kind of like the ManU of college football. Bama is 62-20-4 as of today versus Vandy. This is the 3rd time Vandy beat Bama since segregation ended in 1964.

After Vandy had secured the victory in the game (but before it technically ended) one of the Bama players had a straight up toddler-style temper tantrum:

Vandy fan's/students walk 3 miles from the stadium to the Cumberland River, to throw the goalpost into the river (throwing a goalpost into a body of water is also kind of a thing in college football after a big win lol):

https://www.aei.org/op-eds/the-u-s-navys-missile-production-problem-looks-dire/

An article from the ~~Burger Eagle Freedom Center~~ American Enterprise Institute from a few months ago about the Imperial Navy’s missile production. The two USA ships that attempted to intercept Iranian missiles on Monday launched 12 missiles between them. The 2025 military budget, and allocations for the next five years, will produce 12 SM-Block IIA missiles annually. While about a hundred of another missile type has been ordered, this is apparently 10% of the number ordered in 1985. This year, the White House has passed several budget cuts for USA Navy missile production. Point and laugh.

Warning for Haaretz, but it’s the absolute other end of perspective on “20 F-35s destroyed”. And they give satellite imagery of the Nevatim base after Monday. The cope about missile interception might be entertaining for some. While the destruction of 20 F-35s is probably exaggerated, the F-35 has something like a 30% mission capability rate. So while the warning from Iran likely let them get some of their F-35s in the air, at most a third of them were actually capable of missions. Now i am not a plane person, but i believe a plane that isn’t fully mission capable can still be flight capable. So if we very generously flip that ratio and say only 30% of F-35s could not fly, there were at least 6 planes grounded when the missiles hit. The red circles in this top image are a bit strange to me, because the entire top row of cubbies (?) is covered in what look like blast marks to me. It’s possible only one plane has been destroyed, but individual F-35s fail all the time. Maybe “israel” has too much invested in its reputation to come up with a training accident story, but it seems likely several were damaged if not destroyed.

not a military expert by any means, but an arrow 3 missile costs ~$62 millions. some footage (cannot find it anymore, one was on a beach) showded basically intact "metal tubes". some explosions of hits were so small, it seemed there wasnt even a warhead on it.

is there something to that?

l mean why spend money on warheads when gps/whatever can collect intel and force israel to spend $62 millions to try to intercept it?

Second phase of the attack. More missiles incoming, watch on CNN or Al Jazeera if you want to see live footage.

It's been interesting how stable Lebanese pound has been even in the black market despite Israeli invasion and bombings (at 92,000LBP for a dollar)

Likely because their current policy (after the crash and 6000% devaluation, it was 1500 LBP for a dollar for decades) is to provide more pounds to foreigners than they would get at market rate.

Whenever there is instability the black market prices go up, it happened in Venezuela too during the recent elections and that wasn't anywhere close to as damaging as what Israel is doing.

Lebanese media has reported that Israel has been shelling and firing tanks at border villages adjacent from the area it announced was a closed military border a few hours before, ahead of a reported Israeli land incursion of south Lebanon. The area around Khiam and Wizani, both facing the Lebanon-Israel border, have been shelled for at least two hours. They are both directly east of the closed military area specified by Israel’s military spokesperson late on Monday night.

If Israel did intend to conduct a land invasion across the Lebanese border, shelling and tank fire would likely precede their entry.
