Ismail Haniyeh , the Hamas leader who was assassinated in Iran a couple months back, was also pushing hard for a cease fire and was much more open to negotiating then the guy who replaced him who is pretty hard line.
Netanyahu doesn't want peace and will kill anyone he can to keep this war going and keep him in power and out of jail.
Kangaroos hop because they can store a lot of energy in there Achilles tendon and use that to propel them forward without using much energy. It's good for covering long distances over flat terrain while using as little energy as possible , which is good for the Australian outback as they hop between small patches of vegitation separated by miles of desert. It's not that good for ambushing or quickly chasing prey in a rainforest like the t rex is probably doing.
There's also the issue of scale, a t rex's Achilles tendon would have to be stronger then steel cable and as stretchy as rubber to store and re use that much kinetic force from its weight.
What, does NK have some bizarre projection paranoia that SK will pour over the border like NK did
I mean they did once the Americans started backing them up, hell if Truman didn't hold macarthur back he probably wouldve marched into china. The Korean war is a lot like the situation in Gaza where yes the north / Hamas did hit "first" ( although in both situations there was a background of low level war and skirmishes initiated by both sides) but the reaction to it was disproportionate and borderline genocidal, carpet bombing of the north killed far more people than the North's invasion of the south. You don't need nukes when you can destroy 85% of a countries buildings with conventional bombs. The North's fear of the south isn't just projection.
Before someone calls me a tankie, yes NK is one of, if not the most oppressive regimes on this planet right now and shouldn't have nukes and Kim should be shot for crimes against humanity. I'm just tired of the framing that SK and the US were the good guys in that war. Syngman Rhee was just as authoritarian as Kim il sung, there were no good guys.
Ironically the parts of California that are burning are the ones voting for trump. The fires may get to some of the outskirts of the liberal cities but they're mostly devastating the rural Sierra's and central valley that are as deep red as Alabama.
I mean you probably are a communist to this guy. If you mace him and he can't insult you based on your race / ethnicity then he'll probably just call you a communist.
Where the fuck is he going to go that's progressive enough to not be hostile to his homosexuality but conservative enough not to tax his ungodly hoard. The u.s. is as good as it gets for people like him.
This is the same candidate who filmed an ad where she is running with a bulletproof vest, a pistol and a rifle down the streets and then says "in America you can be anything you want, so don't be weak and gay" and tagged Andrew Tate on it.
It seems she's amping up the Marjorie Taylor green strategy of saying the most outrageous offensive shit to trigger the libs and rally her bigoted base.
$5 says she calls Kamala's VP pick a pedophile.
Bidens about to go down as one of the worst Democrats in the last century because of his hubris if he doesn't. His decent domestic agenda will be overshadowed by him ushering in another trump presidency by ignoring all the signs for him to drop out. He didn't early last year when polls repeatedly showed that people thought he was too old. He didn't when unnamed democrat was leading him by 10 points. He didn't when his Gaza policy alienated large chunks of his base. If he doesn't in the next couple weeks when there will probably be polls coming out showing majority support for him stepping down then he's gone full head in the sand.
It's like RBG all over again, if these people could just get it through there heads to quit while there ahead they could preserve a decent legacy, instead of tarnishing it by leading the way to a regressive order that overturns everything they've done.
According to wikipedia this is the less likely and imo less interesting explanation. They did find coconuts that are genetically distinct from the ones the Spanish brought over from the Philippines, but those ones are more distantly related to the ones in polynesia so they probably didn't float over. Instead they are more likely evidence of pre-columbian contact of Polynesians with south and central America, along with sweet potatoes originating in South America but being present in polynesia and SEA prior to columbus.
So this would boot Columbus off the podium in people who discovered America.
Bering strait people / native American ancestors
Polynesian people
Vikings, Leif Erickson
Columbus
Trump said in a Truth Social post Tuesday. “Biden’s hatred of Bitcoin only helps China, Russia, and the Radical Communist Left. We want all the remaining Bitcoin to be MADE IN THE USA!!! It will help us be ENERGY DOMINANT!!!”
Didn't COMMUNIST China ban it mostly because it was putting strain on their grid? Not sure how wasting states worth of electricity to fuel a glorified ponzi scheme is going to help with energy dominance but who am I to question the self-proclaimed genius.
It's on the non stick coating for a lot of pans and can easily flake off and be ingested if you damage it by using metal utensils. This is why you should never use metal on nonstick.
They might be only able to do those other things since they are able to pay an army to terrorize, intimidate and bribe local and state government's into allowing them to exist and set up these protection racquets. It takes a lot of money to be able to be more powerful then a government, I don't think selling avocados or logging could generate that much
