There was an attempted highjacking of a plane bound for Israel from Dubai by the copilot, an Omani national who planned to crash the plane. Trump's Tenth Crusade meets Jihad.

When I think about the US treating Canada like an enemy, I’m reminded that David Foster Wallace saw this coming in Infinite Jest. Sure we don’t have Québécois assassins (afaik) but look at what he described

Anybody else up for a little Butlerian Jihad about now?
September 30, 2026 at 12:39 PM
Butlerian Jihad had a better aim IMHO

well she has openly campaigned for sharia law to apply across the UK, called for it to be renamed "The Islamic State of Great Britain and Northern Ireland" & called for Jihad to be waged against the EU, so he has a good point.

Sorry! What was I thinking of, she hasn't done any of those things.

i’m still kinda mad at dylan matthews (not really) for the jihad he waged against stupid billionaire philanthropy because then they started spending it on smart (read: evil, world-destroying) things instead.

so i welcome this development and i once again consign dylan matthews to the fires of hell.
This isn’t the best use of billionaire money, but it’s among the least-worst things they seem most-willing to do.
