If it's up to the congress, that's probably way better than it being up to the court especially considering the health, labour, and education reforms he got passed. (cue but at what cost)

I mean, with the exception of the fact that the Soviets were grinding out a victory in Afghanistan by holding as the cities and bombing the Mujahideen in the countryside into submission. Gorbachev didn't have the stomach for it because he stupidly wanted to become Sweden

Petro's administration gives me hope that it's possible for leftists to address climate collapse even within the framework of bourgeois democracy. Hopefully the rest of the Global South follows suit with coalitions like his

He did a self-coup to stay in office via marching the military into the legislature. Also, if you declare a state of emergency and arbitrarily arrest everyone it's easy to ""lower"" the crime rate

Only the Khmer Rouge immediately turning on Vietnam after the war can approach this level of cuckoldry

Didn't the resistance ask him to open a front in the Golan after Oct 7 and he said no in order to pursue normalisation?

That's a fair criticism - doomer is not really a useful term. It just sucks that the information environment being as it is means getting flooded with contradictory accounts all the time. But no one, not the western media, not resistance media, thought this was at all possible not too long ago.

Damn, that helicopter crash might be the most important air accident in history

Idk I feel like you're dooming too much. The US always has primary and secondary objectives for their evil operations and they would definitely have preferred a fully comprador Iraq rather than a weak state with the PMFs openly fighting them. It has yet to be seen if Syria will end up the same way but I think it's more likely that happens than they end up with a fascist Lebanon-type regime. I feel like Turkey would also rather go after the Kurds first than Iraq, no?

"Self-defense" like the Marco Polo bridge incident was self-defense

I think you misunderstood what I'm saying. He still has those cases pending against him. If there's a 1% chance he goes to jail when he ends these genocides, but a 0% chance while he keeps them going, he has every incentive to continue a perpetual state of war until he can coup the supreme Zionist court or whatever. Especially while Biden bends over backwards for "lethad aid" in every way possible.
