The Madness Of Griffons @tmogriffons.bsky.social · 4mo ago

Heard one song on the radio from a group that I'd never heard of before, despite that they've been around for years, and suddenly I have four albums. Currently my absolute favourite song, it's hard to imagine a more beautiful guitar melody. youtu.be/1pqc9Z9ailo?...

So @jderbyshire.ft.com asked @philgordondc.bsky.social if the Iran war is the US’s Suez moment. He said no, but then pithily and pitilessly sums up how it has been a comprehensive strategic failure. Oof! www.ft.com/content/0cbc...

But we also replaced one Khamenei with another; empowered the IRGC; did nothing for the protesters, killed over a thousand civilians, including hundreds of children and lost at least 13 US service members, alongside over 500 wounded); left Iran with enough highly enriched uranium to make 10-12 nuclear weapons; gave it greater incentive to try to build them; irreparably tarnished America's reputation; did lasting damage to the US and world economies; depleted our arsenal of scarce missile-defence interceptors; diverted valuable military assets from other regions; empowered Russia with an oil price windfall; triggered further conflict in Lebanon; further eroded domestic and international law; and may have left Iran in control of the most valuable waterway in the world, in a position to earn tens of billions of dollars in revenue per year through tolls, while holding the world economy hostage.

@stevenomadic.bsky.social ... Hi Steve - love your work! I really liked the music at the end of part 2 of The Scenic Route, but haven't been able to find the song anywhere. Could you please point me to the artist? The website of the licensing group mentioned in the video is no help. Thanks!
