    If this is true that is insanely embarassing and creepy

    Electronic Intifada is generally a pretty good and thorough source for getting a Palestinian perspective on things from my experience, they often just relay what bigger media outlets report. Sometimes you want something besides AP/Reuters

    Trump campaign's been thoroughly groyperfied and this debate was the perfect highlight for it now that Biden's decline is no longer a factor. I haven't seen many conservative types really defending his performance, it's all whining about moderator bias or that Kamala spoke too much in...

    Yes the major metros of Texas, the state I have lived in all my life, housing has lost is bargain. Especially Dallas and Austin + their surrounding burbs. Might not be much relatively if you're coming in on like a coastal tech or finance salary but I don't think I'm going to be able to afford...

    It's because they don't view the Republican party as amenable to a pro-Palestinian position whatsoever. They're protesting Dems because they feel like the needle can be moved there. How is this hard to understand?

    The post was bit hyperbolic but no the nukes weren't absolutely necessary to get Japan to surrender. By the time the Soviet Union invaded China it was basically over and the hardliners really had no more ground, the nukes were deployed in major part because the Soviets arrived

    South Africa was allied with the US and Britain. Why would they be nuked?

    You're right, and large swathes of this country still think Hiroshima and Nagasaki were justified or there was no other option. Do you trust a country that thinks like this, almost started the apocalypse like half a dozen ties, and leaves the ABM Treaty to spearhead a global disarmament...

    No it isn't, they're actually an incredibly destructive and uniquely evil weapon, so much so that nobody wants to be hit by one. We live in a world dominated by powers that possess great quantities of these weapons and disarmament isn't happening any time soon, so if you are a country or people...

    They do not. Yep. Which is why it's a good thing to have 'em

    They are, a country that doesn't have nukes doesn't have true sovereignty and autonomy on the world stage. He will not.
