World News@lemmy.world•Netanyahu says Israel won’t leave occupied land in LebanonEnglish
11·1 month agoStrange, that’s the exact same posture the US took towards the Soviet Union during the cold war. That sentiment preceded containment.
Now, if we could block the Suez AND mine the strait of Gibraltar, now that’s a spicy global economic stew!
The strait of Malacca isn’t an exclusive choke point like the strait of Hormuz or the Dardanelles. Ships can take other routes avoiding belligerent countries in the area. Even the Suez/bab al-mandab isn’t an exclusive choke point, because you can still just go all the way around Africa, it’s just a pain in the ass.
The Straits of Denmark, Hormuz, and Dardanelles are uniquely strategic choke points because the are the only seaward access points to their respective seas, Baltic, Persian and Black, which are controllable by one country and which other countries rely on.
Asbestos really seemed like a miracle material. Its so easy to pull out of the ground and process into anything from tiles to fabric to brake disks. It’s abundant, cheap, and easy to mine. In a world where it seemed everything was always catching on fire, asbestos was magically fireproof. It was saving houses and children and housewives from going up in flames if they got too near a stove or fireplace. It was revolutionising industry, making workplaces safer and more efficient. I really don’t blame anyone for using it everywhere in those early years.
But greed took over after asbestos products flooded the market and the major health hazards became apparent. The corpos and the govts were too greedy and scared to admit it was dangerous, because that would mean choosing to dismantle a billions-dollar value strong industry and start recalling everything.
This is going to be terrible for the shareholders and the health insurance companies!

The truth emerges. It’s not gender, it’s the volume that matters.
The red, white, and blue, and the red, white, and blue.
Please put the mask back on
That’s just the inbred fucked up Hapsburg legacy showing

“Here comes a CloudFlare outage from the top rope with a steel chair!”
I used to work at a furniture factory and we got all our steel delivered in a truck with this configuration. 8m and 10m lengths on the shortest possible wheelbase. No backseat though.
