They just hit population centers in Israel with high explosives this week. Clearly if they had a nuke they would be able to deliver it.
Can you clarify which part of the constitution is being ignored here?
Just because you didn't know something until 24 hours ago does not make it a myth.
I live in a major world city with considerable immigrant populations from many parts of the world, and saw some of the pro-Palestine demonstrations yesterday. There were numerous groups of Iranians protesting against…
I'm not sure you know much about Iran. They did spend a lot of the oil revenue on both education and developing their economy. Compare them perhaps to Saudi Arabia, a similar sized country with much more oil and much…
> Where do you think they've got the weapons from? Ultimately, from the United States taxpayer. Who supply the Egyptian military government, who turn a small proportion over to the Islamists to keep them from too much…
"Yes, we did lie. But in hindsight, our lie did not affect anyone's decision making. The truthful part by itself was enough to convince everyone who was convinced."
91 also happened in a brief period where Russia was holding back from supplying end-of-line military hardware to anyone who wanted to take a shot at the United States and its clients.
Compare military spending by Saudi Arabia, Israel, Egypt and the United States (only Middle East related) with Iranian military spending, over the four decades of Iran's shadow wars with these countries and isolation by…
Did you read the appendix? 85% of respondents have a college degree, with the actual proportion in the population being 28%. This survey is heavily weighted towards emigres and people who know emigres.
I think what you are missing is how vulnerable the United States and its allies are in the region. There are much much softer targets than Tel Aviv, many of which Iran has successfully attacked in the past. The argument…
The problem with this argument is that the case for war with Iraq was repeatedly made as "Iraq has WMDs that they are willing and ready to use".
Yes, this was also said about Iraq in 1991.
The thing is, the United States is self sufficient in petroleum. But domestic prices will go up to reflect the effect on world supply. Arguably the same could happen given widespread use of non petroleum sources of…
It might actually be a good thing to get banned. Possibly it's in your interest not to continue to do business with companies like this, but on any given evening you might abandon your long term interest for the sake of…
You've invented gambling.
But most people clean their own toilets in their house.
Yes you are completely right. All the analysis is done for a game where one randomly chosen person with money gives one other randomly chosen person one dollar at each time step. Some of the conclusions might be similar…
Iran enforces domestic copyright internally but not international copyright.
Natural gas is perfect for peaking as it can spin up quickly and costs little when not burning fuel. Natural gas especially newer more efficient installations will probably be profitable for a while because as…
The calculation is somewhat bogus since comparing a sphere and a torus with the same radius isn't really valid. The author should either compare the surface areas of spheres and toroi with the same volume, or vice versa.
What about 8?
Tate Modern (yes, it is definitely a major art gallery) is around half an hour from the Barbican center by foot, and around half an hour from the Barbican center by public transport. Read my comment again: > It's the…
Name any art gallery which you think is a major art gallery, ie of comparable or greater size and prestige to the Barbican art gallery and is 15 minutes from the Barbican center, including by public transport? You…
There are many cultural centers in the West End, Kensington, and boroughs outside the City, but none of them are 10 or 15 minutes from the Barbican center (hence your not being able to name a single one). There is a…
