I thought that Israel would be wary about selling weapons to Azerbaijan in the first place. But Israel rejected US's request not to sell arms to Azerbaijan. This begs the question whether Israel is a useful US ally/proxy if it blatantly undermines US positions.

The last round of big fighting was in 2023. Azerbaijan blocked off the only road connecting Armenia to the Nagorno Karabakh region by using pretend 'activists' and 'students' protesting mining activites and pollution. Russian peacekeeping forces allowed Azerbaijan to maintain the stranglehold on...

AI control drone jets can be smaller/lethal because now they don't have to worry about keeping a human alive and fresh, no need for life support, additional armor plating and whatever else and can change directions faster than what might cause brain injury to a human pilot. Wonder if the new AI...

I saw Coleman working in a SlapFight event where Tim Sylvia KOd his opponent. Wonder if he also works at Dana Whites Power Slap.

Wonder how Sapp ever managed to beat Hoost twice. Was Hoost injured or did Sapp get lucky, just weird seeing Sapp unload on Hoost.

IMO she did at least to a degree. The UFC paved the way for her by paying spots for her in big magazines/shows/media, she had to show up and play her superhero role. She didn't look that good on TUF but that could also be partly due to editing to make the episodes more dramatic.

Might attempt 230kg at the olympics

I've heard goggles The UFC wanted to buy Trevor Whitman's ONX glove patent instead of just licensing it. Trevor wants a quality company like Nike to use his design instead of selling to Dyaco or something. I thought the UFC would've used Pride's gloves after buying the company but continues to...

Maybe the new Mariko is more historically accurate. As a noblewoman in that era she was well educated and could run administrative matters, balance the books, hire and fire etc. And her personal property was sort of separate from her husband's giving her more independence as well. The old...

Crap, didn't know dogs are like horses running back into burning barns because its ingrained into them that the barn or under the bed is their safe space.

Which is worrying when nuclear power corps doing the same thing, covering up internal mess ups, paying lobbyists for favorable regulations, paying consulting firms to shift public perception that nuclear power is clean and safe.

His death came at the time when he was in the middle of giving evidence in a whistleblower lawsuit.

Yes he was street racing like playing a 'cat and mouse game' according to witnesses so even if he was sober, he was doing something dangerous and illegal.

He's one of the wealthy elite who was also involved in Aristide's 1st coup in the 90s.

Haiti got screwed for a long time by western countries like US, France. Had to pay reparations to France for their independence, took out high interest loan from US to pay France. The US supported dictators the Duvaliers with their Tonton Macoute voodoo gang. Haiti's rice tariff was removed to...

I think he borrowed money for his training camp, not for expensive trinkets.

They could've been pressured by Indian govt officials but I don't think so. Maybe they're feeling bad about the backlash ordinary Indians are getting but I disagree with their comment that what happened to them 'could've happened anywhere'. India is way dangerous when it comes to rapes/violence...

I get what you mean, we call Trump a fascist president even though he doesn't qualify by the definition of that term. Frustrating to see Israel getting away with it for decades, and now turning Gaza into a slaughterhouse.

I'm still surprised that women can now wear pantsuits and don't have to cover their hair in Saudi Arabia.
