So Abbas's tweets kinda say. "If israel stops after 4am we will stop" and "we launched one last wave at 3:59"

He's saying "I'm going to hit you one more time. if you hit back I'm not stopping untill you are broken"

It isn't a cease fire. Its an offer for israel to capitulate and give up on trying to stop Iran for gaining nuclear weapons.

I think its being done to appease Russia.

Maybe Sudo_halt will be able to give us more updates from on the ground! I hope they are ok.

Israel says its now safe to exit bomb shelters The post on X indicates the threat from Iranian missiles is now over.

Get back in your holes, zionists.

There are probably like half a dozen layers of yes men in between bibi and the front line each one is twisting the report of the lower level to sound better than it is. To every layer of command, the supremacy ideology holds more weight than reports of bad news from subordinates. There is also a time delay where worse the news takes longer to relay.

Bibi is probably unaware that Iran's Air defence was back up after a few hours. Every report of damage to israel is probably paired with over inflated or outright fabricated stories of damage to Iran as a coping mechanism.

If India says it was terrorists I am 100% sure it was the cia.

This is pretty funny. China probably agreed to return to the status quo which makes trump come out looking like an idiot who overplayed his hand and the damage to the american economic reputation is done.

Yep they just want to put the genocide back in the basement for a few years till the heat dies down.

“They sell us about five times more than we sell them. So their factories are closing down as we speak,” Bessent said. “We’re going into the holiday season. Orders are placed for that now. So if those orders aren’t placed, it could be devastating for the Chinese.” -Bessent

This guy is so stupid. Imagine believing that Being on the demand side of the equation gives you more power than being on the supply side.

People will be upset over a few factories shutting down. For sure. It'll suck for some chinese workers.

But the other side of that coin is empty stores before Black Friday. How many retailers are going to finish the year in the red if they cant get products to sell? How many consumers are going to be mad because there is nothing to buy or what there is is 10x the cost because there is no supply? There is nobody to replace those products and even if there were Trump's tariffs have pissed the entire world off because he put them on everyone.

We might see scarcity protests in usa this christmas. Honestly I think Trump might actually "drain the swamp" just not in the way he was hoping for.

I want to watch amercica during a nasty musk/trump breakup. That sounds like a really good time.

"how can something be more than 100%?"

What makes you so sure that Taiwan isn't part of china? Both the Taiwanese government and the mainland government agree that Taiwan is part of China. So does the usa and every other nation in the world.

Fucking capitalists. This could have started 10 years earlier but instead they waited until the climate change crisis was unstoppable.
