One of the goals with the non-binding vote aspect is to encourage people to fearlessly vote their first choice. They can always change it to something else at the last minute.
Then again, since this is only polling and not real voting, there's not much to lose anyway.
I imagine there has to be hundreds of unexploded devices in Lebanon. I would expect to see some of those surface over the next few weeks, or someone get stopped at an airport with one
For both attacks, I've been seeing stories of a plane, the "EC-130H Compass Call" flying in the area. It's supposedly an electronic intelligence aircraft that hasn't been seen in the sky for about a year. I don't know much more than that though
He's a popular voice of dissent on Twitter and someone must be cracking down right now. Scott Ritter is another--he had his passport seized recently and his house raided by the FBI a week ago.

All the Federal agencies have been weaponized. SEC only went after companies like LBRY, Inc because their founders and platform share information they don't like. The real fraudsters on Wallstreet get away with anything.

I'm 90% convinced the only reason we went to war in Iraq (which was justified initially with specious links between Iraq and 9/11) was to take the heat off of SA because actual consequences for our bestest oil buddies killing several thousand Americans were simply not on the table, and they won't be on the table in the future.
Look at mapped locations of US military bases before and after the "War on Terror". It was always about establishing a foothold in the region to threaten Iran and displace competing imperial powers - although much of that has been ceded in the last decade or so.
I can only assume that if Iraq had gone better we would probably be through Iran and on NK by now, but I don't know. Now it looks like they're ginning us up for a war with China.
