There are alot of batshit things that the admin could do, and a few that they must do, in order to remain in power. Killing an iranian is all of a piece with the existential dilemma facing our current admin, lol. Turns out they tried to kill a few more...but couldn't get there.
I'm starting to wonder if there's anything that these guys are good at.
Fucking up

I don't know what it's like in other countries but here in the UK this story died out quickly. I was expecting this to rumble on in the media for ages but it only seem to last a few days here before other things took over.
