I was hit with a super-injunction once. What does it say that the MoD thought that even the parliamentarians who oversee the spy agencies couldn’t be trusted? www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/politics/pol...

I know how democracy dies in darkness

The state’s instinct for secrecy is often dressed up as in the national interest. It’s right to be furious about it

NEW: Iran emptied the nuclear site at Fordow of its enriched uranium (400kgs) days before the attack. They did this because Trump told the world on Twitter he’d attack. The location of the uranium is now unknown. Galactically inept.

Extract from the NYT which says:

But there was also evidence, according to two Israeli officials with knowledge of the intelligence, that Iran had moved equipment and uranium from the site in recent days. And there was growing evidence that the Iranians, attuned to Mr. Trump's repeated threats to take military action, had removed 400 kilograms, or roughly 880 pounds, of uranium enriched to 60 percent purity. That is just below the 90 percent that is usually used in nuclear weapons.

Time for my favorite Easter meme. Happy Easter!

Two chocolate bunnies facing each other with quote bubbles that say, respectively: “my butt hurts“
The other bunny says, “what?”
The picture shows that one chocolate bunny‘s tail has been eaten off and the other had its ears eaten off.
