While I agree that Iran, a state sponsor of terrorism with a leadership that is not rational, should not have a nuclear weapon, I'm a little bit worried by the trigger-happy president.

"Everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran!". It is pretty much official now. https://x.com/WhiteHouse/status/1934745869821370570

If you are building a nuclear weapon and are openly calling for the destruction of another state as well as calling for the assassination of yet another state's president.. you may not even be rational. And should be stopped immediately.

The Ukraine / Russia war is about territory, the Israel / Iran is very different. I'm honestly not sure the learnings or assumptions from one can be applied to the other.

Last week, the IAEA (UN) reported that Iran is developing nuclear weapons. Iran’s official stance includes the destruction of Israel. The prospect of a nuclear-armed Iran is unacceptable—not just to Israel, but also to Saudi Arabia and the United States. They miscalculated.

One could easily argue that human reasoning, for most people and in most situation, consists of a series of steps involving simple pattern matching. Solving a math problem at school is exactly that for instance.

Antisemitic acts need to be prosecuted though.

I want to agree with you. That being said what happened in the past days is by definition political speech, even if it sounds very childish. Comments based on personal ethics, like those shared by Prof. Galloway, may reinforce the beliefs of some Democrats, but they’re a real turn-off for at least half of the U.S. population. I don't think it helps bridging the gap between the two sides to be honest.

In San Francisco a lot of people I know work all the time. People with a more fun / relax attitude left the city.

Canada’s border plan and the $1.3b were announced in 2024. So in the case of Canada, Trump didn’t get much if anything indeed.
