I don’t know that Iridium is still working. I think it’s been decommissioned. But, the US military has been looking for its replacement for years. Now, they could launch their own, or buy a network. Musk not getting RUS funds and losing a thousand satellites from orbit a year makes Starlink a prime candidate.

For an operating company that’s the kiss of death. I predict Starlink will be bought by the US government and there won’t be a hell of a lot of profit.

The WPA artists took their style from Wood and Curry. You used to see this regionalism art in small town post offices in the west.

Good to eat. They serve them for breakfast in the Caribbean

Does anyone know that a storm flooded parts of Miami yesterday? Should have been in the news, but it had no name. Locals are calling it the “no name spinner”

unilaterally blanket-approve the future sale of military equipment and weapons—like ballistic missiles and artillery ammunition — to Israel without notifying Congress

That is standard. Congress can and does get this information from the DOD.

US Troops had this same dilemma during WWII. Germans housed in hospitals and churches had to be removed. They were and sometimes at high cost.

Time to bust out the checkbook, Zuck.

Obviously hitting some weapons cache from the secondaries on the clips I’ve seen.

Seems to me to be a less complex attack than you need when you have half a million troops staged.

Edit to add: however Rivet Joint SIGINT flights are up, so it’s major no matter how you cut it.

This isn’t a major step off IMO. Just a mini incursion.

Paltel was the last ISP standing and now it is kaput. Fairly common for Iran to turn off their internet after Friday prayers, but Gaza was caused by shelling.

As we would say here in Florida, Acapulco got its ass kicked. A direct hit by a Cat 5 is no joke.
