    Not for nothing but during this entire debacle I think we all need to pay very close attention to sources. This one should make you cautious during any normal time much less right now.

      Even the reasoning in the article makes no sense. Does America have to close its airspace anytime it launches an attack on a foreign country from an American base too?

      much less right now.

      I think you mean “even more”.
      But I agree.

          Seems to be a very counterintuitive way to use it. To me it sounds very wrong even if it is technically correct.
          You are basically saying the opposite of what you mean.

          From your link:

          Tony can’t boil an egg, much less cook dinner.

          This is the way I’d expect it to be used. Where it actually means less and not more.

    Despicable. They want to win at all costs, even the cost of their own people.

      What do you expect?

      Their entire philosophy of war is centered on terrorism, they have nothing else.

      They consider putting the taliban in power, twice, to be a strategic win.

      And their expulsion and genocide of Hindus in Pakistan makes zionists drool.

      There’s a reason east Pakistan isn’t east Pakistan anymore.

        I dunno man… I don’t know much about Pakistan or India. Why is their philosophy centered on terrorism? Why did they consider that? I feel like both sides are brainwashed to hell and need to chill out.

          India is led by hinudtva ultra-nationalists who brainwash their people into hating Muslims. Among other things Indias is militarily supporting Israel even with troops to help massacre Palestinians.

          Pakistan by no means has a white west, but if you hear talking points claiming all of Pakistan to be terrorists, you should recognize the playbook.

            Pakistan literally expelled or massacred their Hindu population, in a way that would make zionists drool.

            Ther are 240m Muslims in Pakistan, 200m in india, and India has many other religions besides becausw they have religious freedom written into the constitution.

            This is like saying 'Nazi Germany is more tolerant than other countries!" AFTER they exterminated all the jews.

              I did not say anything about Pakistan except that the narrative that they would all be terrorists is bullshit. Modi’s government is actively sowing hatred and disinformation against Muslims and they are very different from previous Indian governments. Also Muslims are not the only people persecuted by the Indian government. There was a high profile assassination of a Sikh in Canada initiated by the Indian government in 2023. Sikhs and Muslims have been subject to Pogroms in India repeatedly and the current government is actively escalating tensions to initiate riots and pogroms.

              So the narrative of “terrorists” has to be seen in that context.

                I’m not arguing modi isn’t a piece of shit.

                But Pakistan has been basically nazi level since it’s foundation.

                In my opinion this is why it was stupid to fuck around with India so much, at some point some psycho will take power and the find out phase will kick in.

          I’m in no way in for modi, he should get fucked to death too.

          But Pakistan’s leadership has to burn, they’re genuine evil.
