Almost as hard as the planet is getting fucked by the computers to make this absolute shite.

You are right. The pilot was drunk and had cocaine in their blood and also wasn't qualified to fly the plane which was itself dangerously overloaded.

Catalogue of errors that caused the deaths of all 8 passengers.

Canadian teams just seem to not want to win. With Toronto more concerned with shooting themselves in the foot the moment they reach the playoffs every year; Winnipeg, Vancouver, Calgary and Ottawa more concerned with cycles of more or less mediocrity; Edmonton who have to rely on 2 players to get them through you're left with the Habs who can't seem to get it together for long enough to make a real impact though I really hope this time around is the one that sticks and I have hope!

Canucks (my team) seem to be preoccupied with one more trade or one more overpaid free agent and we'll squeak in but when that doesn't work out they shit the bed again, just like this year and it's looking worse the next with absolutely nothing in the cupboards (though the Calder cup win makes things look a little better). But we're about to sabotage the career of the greatest player we've ever had because ownership refuses to have a genuine rebuild.

No, I think beyond this meme there's zero to link the two. Far more ominous are the parallels to the invasion of Iraq in 2003. Even down to the false claims of WMD.

I'm just saying that there's no fair comparison between USA in 1941 and Iran in 2025 because everything about their situations is different, despite the similar results we're likely to see.

I was neither agreeing or disagreeing with you.

1 - England is not an island, you mean Great Britain.

2 - Almost half the food eaten in the UK has been imported from overseas.

3 - A large proportion (it's difficult to get exact figures and it fluctuates) of energy is imported from abroad in the forms of oil and gas.

Great Britain, and the wider UK, has not been self sufficient for ~600 years relying on colonialism and a maritime empire to meet its needs and trade since it collapsed. If it had to rely on resources available within the island it would collapse in days.

It's not really comporable though? USA had more manufacturing capacity than almost the entire rest of the world combined in 1941.

Plus Iran has consistently shown it does have the stomach for a fight. It's used terrorist cells and proxy militias to engage in indirect warfare with Israel and it's allies since the Islamic Revolution. You couldn't pick an enemy in the world more willing and able to put up a fight against Israel and America.

Certainly not in conventional means but then they've never shown any interest in conventional warfare since Iran/Iraq and they mostly won that through the use of suicide bombers disuading Hussein from perusing a ground offensive in Iran.
