I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said—“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal, these words appear:
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

Quite literally, this is the first thing that comes to mind any time I hear about Trump’s ballroom, his proposed triumphal arch, the renaming of the Palm Beach airport, his signature or image on money, his plans to annex Greenland and/or Canada.

Dude is literally the most corrupt, dishonorable narcissist in modern history.
 
Funny how we don't go after North Korea or Pakistans nuclear material
It’s not funny. It’s common sense. Those countries have passed the point of no return. Iran has not. Along with other common sense reasons. Comparing NK and Pakistani to Iran isnt close to an accurate equivalency
 

Iran attacked and set ablaze a fully loaded crude oil tanker anchored at Dubai port, with the strike damaging the vessel’s hull, in the latest strike on merchant vessels in the Gulf and strait of Hormuz amid the US and Israel war on Iran.

Dubai authorities said the drone attack on the Al Salmi tanker caused a fire on board that was extinguished early on Tuesday, hours after the attack was first reported. They later confirmed there was no oil leak.


The attack came hours after Donald Trump warned that the US would obliterate Iran’s energy plants and oil wells if it does not open the strait of Hormuz.The month-long conflict has spread across the Middle East, killing thousands, disrupting energy supplies and threatening to send the global economy into a tailspin.
 
In an earlier post we brought you pictures following US-Israeli airstrikes on the Husseiniya Azam – a key Shia religious site used for ceremonies and gatherings - in the Iranian city of Zanjan, with damage reportedly caused to parts of the dome and minarets. We can now bring you some more information.

State television said the site “was damaged following the enemy’s morning attack on the Ferdowsi street” in Zanjan, an industrial provincial capital located about 200 miles northwest of Tehran.

The airstrikes killed at least four people and injured 26 others in the area, according ISNA news agency, citing Ali Sadeghi, a provincial deputy governor.
 
The first 30 days of this war reminds me of the first 30 days of Covid. Remember all the dishonesty coming from Trump? Everything is the same. He has no clue what to do. He just wants it to go away.
