    The only way out of this I see is to drive a wedge between billionaire oligarchs and this administration. Seems like a smart move.

    Seems more like they are calling their shots to show the US military cant stop them. “9 ball, corner pocket”.

    As a counter to their swagger, I say we surround those buildings with our well-trained and highly-competent ICE agents. As the missiles rain down they can shoot them out of the sky with their rifles. Its worth a try.

        I know they’re both fired but being the patriots they are I bet Kristi Noem and Pam Bondi would be willing to help out as well. Hell you know Pete Hegseth would do wonders for this country if he was over there. Send the whole crew over. It would be the most patriotic thing Trump could do.

    Do it and nothing of real value to humanity will be lost.
    Except of course the monetary value of the AI chips. and those are owned by the 1%, so taking away some of their control, Iran will actually do Democracy of the world a favor.

        Good to keep in mind it is still an oppressive theocracy with public killings and their own flavor of violent regime thugs, working above laws, just like Russia has their militia and US has their ICE etc.

        But, in comparison to this current flavor of the US, I too find myself preferring Iran here, and not only because they are the victim here, which is just bonkers in any objective sense. The world is just nuts.

    Hey do that and come here and Bob ours next, and if you’re still feeling frisky, bomb the pop up ICE headquarters next.

      Agreed, Its not like the AI answers from my alexa can get any worse. Bombing some shitty corporations data centers has pretty much nothing at all to do with the American public. Some rich arseholes will lose a few dollars they dont care about and life will go on as usual.

      Maybe some AI product launches will be delayed, which is a net win for the entire planet.
