I think the last time that was the case, they were called modems and made by US Robotics.

Shortly after the chips and components started coming from Japan and eventually Taiwan.

Exactly, since nothing is made in the US, only the ISP routers on the government list will be legal.

Not a very enlightened one then, clearly 🤣

I have never heard of such a liberal. They always seem to know one side is worse

However many cowed conservatives use the “there are good/bad people on both sides” argument.

From the stills it looks like a standard mk82 with a guidance kit. It lacks the longetudenal slits that cluster munition bodies have. Also cluster munitions deploy their bomblets about 50-150m before they hit the ground, otherwise they don’t get distribution.

It looks more like they dropped a followup bomb on a bridge that was not destroyed by the first bomb. Its a common practice for low urgency targets.

Especially considering it hit the same crater. Those bombs are accurate to about 1m, so that is not unusualy to hit almost the same spot.

I still think they just did not care he was there. If they were targeting him, it would have hit him.

And the bridge that was still standing.

I doubt he was specifically targeted, since the margin of the miss was too large. But the ones doing the bombing knew he was there and went ahead to bomb the bridge anyway.

Also have a look at Adrian Tchaikovsky’s dogs of war and Children of time series.

Its really scratching my Asimov itch of late.

Much like people say that in the USA today, Jesus would be killed for his beliefs, you would likey find the same to be true for many of those saints in the middle east.

I think one needs to draw a distinction between religion as a belief and religion as a institution.

Its not the belief that is the problem. People should be allowed to find their own meaning to life.

The institution is where the problems lie.

The US are UK are poor examples of progressive western values. Look to Scandinavia and northern Europe for the best examples.

Its certainly easier to prevent hegemonic religions from forming if you have a more equal society.

But hegemonic religion also maintains inequality, so you also need to combat it.

Islam is certainly not alone in being uncivilized. Any religion that maintains inequality is barbaric.

I also have hope that Europe with its significant immigrant population will transfer more moderate ideas back to their countries of origin.

The more cultures mix the less chance there is for extreme views to take hold. Its easy to convince someone to attack someone who is different, if you have never met them.

I mean one that supports equal human rights, protection of women and children, social justice, outlawing discrimination based on leaving a religion and removes religion from government at all levels.

So exactly not the christo nationalism, Zionist and Islamic systems that cause so many problems in the world.

They make as if each is so special, but they are all just different flavours of the problematic system of control by the elite.

Its guys like these that I would like to see put in charge of reforming Islam into something more civilized.

An example to be immitated on mass.

Sudo pkill -9 fire

Thats crazy too

The school is the building on the top right. Looks like its inside the walls.

To clarify, I was not saying children were not killed.

All I am saying is the fact that the Iranian regime doctored the photos of the event and funeral to make it seem like more people attended, and refusing to open up the internet for indepedent reporting, puts the stated numbers in doubt.

The school is the building in the top right, inside the walls of the military compound.

Of all the things you don’t want anywhere near a military base. Its criminally reckless of both sides.

There was also the Iran missle launch failure theory (now debunked)

There is some doubts now on the true death toll due to leaked witness testimony and errors in the metadata and manipulation of the released photos. https://youtu.be/ruPlAXeL2SA

Still, even if that is all true, why was the school inside the military compound (crazy Iranian regime) and why did the US take the risk of striking it (crazy US regime)

Cant trust anything either side is saying.

You mean as soon as Fornite and Call of Duty stops blocking Linux.

So you are advocating for Leasure Suit Larry age verification questions.
