Fair enough. If I can remember, I will look at some point.

You got that right.

Oh? I definitely missed that news. What’s Nokia’s record for user privacy? Do they still have the spy room?

I’m guessing no matter what Iran does, US is going to spin it as a reason to escalate. It’s a sad, sick, dangerous tactic, but uhh …

Update: The company that employed the brothers went unnamed in court documents but was identified in the press as Opexus. An eagle-eyed Ars reader points out that, back in December, the company gave a series of quotes to Cyberscoop about the entire incident. Though Opexus did background checks, the company admitted that “additional diligence should have been applied,” it acknowledged that “the terminations were not handled in an appropriate manner,” and it said that “the individuals responsible for hiring the twins are no longer employed by Opexus.” Clearly, the failure here was all-encompassing.

And USA

I thought his son was holding the same line?

Would this be with the blessing of the Imam?

At most.

Not even a hundred workers.

Because that’s fair, and these people should have to pay true market value and the cost of healing the environmental damage. If that includes desalinization and reforestation, so be it.

You’re welcome. Thanks for not getting upset with it.

China, like Iran, has shown extraordinary restraint, in the face of undeserved provocation after undeserved provocation. You would think ignorant and arrogant Western “leaders” would take note and behave accordingly, rather than continuing to poke the patient dragon.

The United States is the only state to have dropped the bomb. Twice. Unnecessarily.

Yes. And?
