Battered, Bloodied & Victorious

Beaten and bloodied by US and Israeli bombs and missiles, and a largely ineffective US maritime blockade, Iran appears to think it’s thwarted Israel-USA’s unlawful war of aggression. It may be right.

All hail the Republic of Palantir. The GPM speaks about Alex Karp’s weird manifesto with U. Ottawa scholar David Murakami Wood.
