  1. Cephalopods manipulation of RNA could mean they don't really rely too much on DNA to evolve over the eons of time.
  2. If it was a "false flag" it would have been done by Tahrir al-Sham or one of the other related jihadist rebel groups using the gas to kill off some expendable children in order to garner international support that has wavered off.
  3. I don't they have an officer corp of any quality and thus aren't that capable, especially after the recent purges of the Turkish military. However, I see what you are saying.
  4. I think it would be an embarrassment for Turkey to get its ass kicked by Russia/Assad as the Turkish military barley seems to be able to handle the lightly armed militants in Operation Euphrates Shield. Imagining them going on the offensive against the SAA/Russia/IRGC/Hezbollah seems like a losing effort. Though it would be something to consolidate power around.
  5. I'm skeptical that 36 Tomahawks just failed, but I guess that's plausible. No reports that they hit anywhere else.
  6. Wonder if this is the first time that Tomahawks have been fired into a country with a halfway decent air defense.
  7. Knowing that Assad's government represents Syria's Alawite, Shia, Christian, Druze, and non-religious peoples you can also expect some good ole ethnic cleansing if these groups cant fend for themselves against rather well armed jihadis.
  8. Wouldn't be surprised if retaliation means rockets fly into Tel Aviv
  9. Wondering how Iran, Hezbollah, misc Shia militias are reacting, as they might take this more seriously as an existential threat than the Russians seeing this as old great power politics.
  10. Jihadis do have more friends in high places than Aum Shinrikyo though. Imagine what they could have done if they were state sponsored Apparently one of the doctors associated with the rebels in the aftermath of the attack helped kidnap John Cantlie
  11. I'd imagine NATO has shifted to more of a counterterrorism alliance these days, but I mostly agree that the original purpose isn't really there and counterterrorism gets really messy and complicated which makes an alliance burdensome at times. Meh.
  12. Even factoring in overestimates, the Houthis are one mighty fine fighting force while armed with a couple of AKs and a janbiya. I also see the Houthis are still comparing Abrams to lighters. Lets not give them more targets.
  13. Anti-Saudi coalition protest in Sanaa on the 2nd anniversary of the start of the Saudi intervention. Lol @ the gender divide. President Hadi, the Saudi-backed impotent in Aden, has been sentenced to death for treason against Yemen by the Yemeni courts.
  14. French Foreign Legion recruiting by region
  15. Can't get over how much Yemen looks like Mars. Also these videos show again and again Saudi vehicles being isolated and KO'd. Jesus they are awful at warfare.
  16. "The dumbest fucking guy on the planet" states that Saudi ability to counter extremism is unmatched. He really lives up to his moniker.
  17. The city of Taiz has been under siege by Houthi/Saleh forces for almost 2 years now. You can conclude on this that the Saudis aren't fighting in Taiz as they would have already left. So who is running Taiz?
  18. Ok, so going back to feathers on dinos with this new phylogeny. Would the sauropods + other basal dinos not having feathers make sense now as they aren't in the clade of the feathered theropods and ornithischians?
