"As much as most Americans may see the Iran war as a deadly dangerous & costly fiasco driven by a reckless madman, don’t doubt that Vance knows who stands to gain from it. Several days ago, The Guardian documented the windfall this war is providing to the top 100 oil and gas companies, which are making more than $30 million per hour and could pocket an estimated $234 billion in extra profits this year."

I think Trump should go himself as he is the most important man and the only one who can possibly close the deal.
I'm in Tbilisi, so depending on winds, it's possible there could be some fallout here. I guess I need to do some shopping?
I saw this post on reddit a few weeks ago (quotes an AI analysis of the risk here): https://www.reddit.com/r/Sakartvelo/comments/1rjkiry/yestrday_the_iaea_warned_that_it_could_not_rule/

The International Congress of Mathematicians (#ICM) decided not to meet in #Russia in 2022, for a list of reasons including Russa's "war of aggression in #Ukraine and the potential dangers…in regards to freedom of political expression and the safety of #LGBTQ participants." Now some ICM members have launched a petition asking it not to meet in the US in 2026, for a list of reasons including US aggression in #Gaza, #Greenland, #Iran, and #Venezuela, and "serious concern that academics (or anyone) traveling to the US may be denied entry."

"Muslims are not neutral subjects in the global order, and Islam is already positioned as suspect within it. The conversation about hijab does not happen in a vacuum. Take authoritarianism in Iran, for example.
Instead of seeing authoritarianism as inherently gendered and violent, as an inevitable feature of patriarchy, as a system that justifies itself by co-opting any moral framework, you view it as either “uniquely Islam”, an “Abrahamic religions issue”, or “proof that all religions are oppressive.” Why don’t you name a secular, non-authoritarian, non-misogynistic nation-state, then?"

#Iran has re-imposed restrictions on #StraitOfHormuz, accusing the #US of violating deal to reopen it
Iran has reversed course on reopening the Strait of Hormuz, warning that it would continue to block transit through the narrow waterway as long as the US #blockade of Iranian ports remained in effect.

Obviously I loathe the Iranian regime too, but I really hope they keep this kind of trolling up until they and #Trump are both gone.
We are using military force to take the side of precisely the countries who have enriched Trump and his family. This backdrop must at the very least be stated in the reporting of the war. Along with the subversion of democracy, personal corruption provides a second interpretive framework.From https://snyder.substack.com/p/why-attack-iran

twemoji的GitHub仓库和Google Noto Emoji的GitHub仓库都在争吵伊朗的国旗问题（链接在下方）。要我说，还是微软有先见之明，为了避开政治争议，所有国旗/地区旗一律不加进emoji里，不过也给我造成了一些麻烦就是了（只显示成国家/地区的ISO代码，使我不清楚到底是哪个国家）。
