So ahead of the loyalty pledge ceremony to Trump, support aircraft are heading to the Middle East. Either a war with Iran or the end of Gaza is nigh.
Dane here: This does not make me feel warm and cozy.
Hyggen’t
My sibling in the airforce is deploying in like 7 days. I have the same feelings that this will not be great
Best of luck to your sibling and all of us, that this won’t go totally sideways.
that this won’t go totally sideways
So you haven’t heard about the current US government…
It’s practically impossible not to.
They might just shoot up some luckless civilians, declare victory and go home. There’s precedent for that.
Oh, well that’s fine then.
Imagine enrolling in the military in the last checks notes 80 years
Aw, fuck.
Don’t complain. There’s literally people who live in America now.
sad hygge noises
Im sure they want you to think its to fuel up all the fighter planes shooting down russian drones, not the big stategic bombers.
At first, I couldn’t imagine that Trump cares enough to get us I into a war. But another thread got me thinking about this. If the US was embroiled in a war, the government would have context to start declaring anyone who doesn’t support it to be actual traitors and execute them.
I hope that’s not what this is, but that would be a typical Trump play. Jump into a whole-ass war that he gives not one fuck about, killing soldiers and foreign civilians, just because in times of conflict a President is given even greater authority and power because of the need for strong, decisive leadership.
Hopefully I’m just being cynical.
Trump was very interested in the fact that Ukraine wasn’t holding elections because of the war, and because of that Zelensky was still president.
It’s not just an excuse to impose martial Law in the us, but
- that’s what bullies do: attack the weak because you think it makes you appear strong.
- It’s a basic part of the MAGA playlist: find a distraction, stoke outrage, appeal to nationalism
- TACO time. If he can’t impose martial law in Portland, find somewhere else so no one notices chickening out. Maybe Portugal or something: no one will notice the difference
- time for another distraction from releasing the Trump-Epstein files
It’s yet another step in the fascist playbook
He wants that nobel peace prize and if he has to bomb his way to it!
He doesn’t care how many people he has to get killed to get it.
Worked for Obama
“Hey everyone I have no understanding of history or even a vague concept of nuance…”
Maybe after this the Wikipedia page “List of Nobel Peace Prize Winners Who Killed Over 12,000 Civilians” will have a second name on it
Have you already forgotten Kissinger?
And Le Duc Tho. The VC were murderous psychos too.
I didn’t know he won a Nobel Peace prize. Fuck him too.
Good answer
They prepare to annihilate Gaza the very second they have the last hostage out.
I think you’re being a little optimistic about the hostages, because Trump and Netanyahu know that Hamas won’t accept the “Peace deal” that they have been left out of negotiating, and thus they’ll say that Hamas is responsible for the deaths of the hostages when American forces join the IDF in flattening Gaza and then turning it over to Tony Blair.
Tony Blair?? Why is that asshat’s name back in the zeitgeist?
Hold on to your butts 🚬
No fly zone over Ukraine?
What a nice thought
Maybe the generals and admirals need gas to get home
They should have plenty once they switch to their new Government-mandated diet plan.
