another instance of irredentism 

 

A new word!   Thanks!   Seems a lot of cultures could have a case for irredentism, given how "lands" have changed hands over the millennium.

 

The story about Roosevelt, Churchill and Stalin "carving up" Europe after WW2 comes to mind.

Iran-backed Houthis join war with attack against Israel

 

The entry of the powerful Iranian proxy into the conflict raises fears of further disruption to the world economy as the armed group has capacity to attack shipping in the Red Sea.

U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth prayed for "overwhelming violence of action against those who deserve no mercy" during a religious service at the Pentagon.

The Christian worship service, held on Wednesday for workers at the Pentagon, was Hegseth's first since the beginning of the Iran War earlier this month, according to The Associated Press.

"Let every round find its mark against the enemies of righteousness and our great nation," Hegseth said during the service. "Give them wisdom in every decision, endurance for the trial ahead, unbreakable unity and overwhelming violence of action against those who deserve no mercy."

 

Cool, it's a holy war now. Just like the Crusades.

Not just him; many people are growing tired of evangelical Christianity in the US. Religion hasn't been banned yet, but it's not hard to see how and why it could happen.
