They're gonna go kill brown people to get the focus off of the richest ruling elite in the world (including their own commander in chief) trafficking, raping, and murdering children.

So exactly what has been keeping the US alive for over a century, yes.

Pedophilic Boogaloo

@ickplant Putting soldiers in harms way to distract from the epstein files should get the fat fuck the death sentence.

I've been saying that cutting USAID and the nearly million deaths that followed in the subsequent months as a direct result of cutting a program that as much as a couple of his planned ballrooms, should get him hanged slowly at the hague.

Out of everything he's done, this along with rolling back environmental protections will have caused the most harm and suffering to humanity and these are the things getting the least attention.

Imagine having the power to ruin the lives of countless millions of living souls and doing it for no other reason than to prove how "not woke" you are and to add another several cents per share to your donor's investments.

Nixon and Reagan both conspired with hostile foreign governments to win elections and we let both of those guys off the hook. Why would this be different?

[-] PlutoniumAcid@lemmy.world 21 points 6 months ago

Because we've had enough? Because we've learned our lesson?

Or maybe we haven't?

💯

But instead it will probably get him more adoration from his base.

Who am I kidding? It’s not probably, it’s definitely.

Pedos or not there is no way the USA would stay out of waging new wars either way, it's literally its bread and butter and can't exist without it. The machine is getting itchy, it needs blood, that simple.

Okay. And for those of us that haven’t served what does it mean? Fucking gate keepers, man.

[-] Bazell@lemmy.zip 160 points 6 months ago

Such good food is served to boost morale and mood of soldiers before the battle. In this case, before a new war. To be more precise: before war between the USA and Iran(and Israel as an ally).

[-] Thedogdrinkscoffee@lemmy.ca 38 points 6 months ago

Ally? The US is subservient to Israel.

[-] Mulligrubs@lemmy.world 24 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Cute, you think it's a country in charge? HA

The USA and Israel serve the same master

War is coming tomorrow.

Edit: again, I would like to add that this is wild speculation.

It's like in games when there is suddenly a room with lots of healing items and ammo you know there is a hard fight coming up

[-] Doom@lemmy.world 33 points 6 months ago

You know how they feed a death row inmate a last meal before sending them off to die. Kinda like that, only more fucked up because our troops are going to die for the machinations of billionaires and warlords.

The military isn't well known for their cuisine. The exception is when they're about to deliver some bad news. Steak and lobster means you're about to get shipped off to war.

Olympics end today so it's showtime for the military industrial complex.

[-] groupofcrows@lemmy.ca 60 points 6 months ago

I had to check the date. It's been 4 years since the end of the Beijing winter Olympic, also known as the start of Russia's 3 day special military operation.

It’s also a few days into Ramadan, a holiday where Muslims fast while the sun is up. (It lasts approximately from fat Tuesday to Easter.)
So, you know, if you want to fuck up someone’s day, make ‘em work extra hard while hangry.

(Which is not necessarily true. IIRC, much of the religious understanding and forgiveness in Islam is about intent. They might be cool with breaking a fast when facing an existential threat. But it’s Iran, sooo…)

Being sent to fertilise Iranian fields?

[-] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 58 points 6 months ago

A pedophile wants to create a distraction so he asks his genocidal friend how he does it so they start a war together. Imagine dying so a pedophile doesn't have to face justice. MAGA: they'll do it.

[-] kurmudgeon@lemmy.world 54 points 6 months ago

All those Iranian citizens who think the U.S. is doing this for them... They're about to find out the hard way what putting your trust in the U.S. is like, let alone Trump. You would think they'd learn from the last time.

[-] Gorilladrums@lemmy.world 99 points 6 months ago

Nobody thinks this. Lemmy users need to stop being racist like this. Iranians are not stupid, these people have agency. They know what a war with the US means, they had two of their neighbors go through it. They know it's hell, but the thing is that the regime right now is so cartoonishly evil that if a war loosens their grip on power and opens up a real possibility for a new government, then it might just be worth it.

I'm Iraqi. My family lived through the terror of Saddam Hussein. The US invasion was hell. It destabilized the country and a lot of people died. Nobody recalls that time as a good one. Yet, at the same time, you'll be hard pressed to any Iraqi that wishes the US didn't depose of that evil regime.

I'm not saying this isn't a sign of something, but Surf and Turf nights are fairly common at overseas bases. Sometimes once a week.

EDIT: Pie is pretty much nightly anywhere with real kitchen.

Approximately 45% of the available combat ready aircraft are in position at various air bases, which include carriers. One does not deploy and concentrate air assets like that unless you want the shit to hit the fan. Wasting billions for nothing.

[-] ShergalFarkey@lemmy.world 23 points 6 months ago

This is Trump's MO, I think he was hoping for a lot more coverage from the media on this to drown out the Epstein stuff. I guess he thinks if he does order a strike, it will help take the pedo-heat off him, but it'd be the most foolish decision he's ever made, Iran are not to be fucked with militarily.

Is there an actual source for this?

[-] ickplant@lemmy.world 35 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

No actual source, hence posting in memes rather than news.

Edit: I found this but I still wouldn’t call this properly confirmed in any way: https://www.wionews.com/world/-last-meal-before-strikes-on-iran-why-us-military-s-lobster-steak-feast-might-be-bad-for-khamenei-1771662894540

It's an advanced hot dog holding technique known as "the imminent deepthroat".

Has there been at least a piss weak justification for this new war? Or is he still crapping on about Iran developing a nuclear weapon in the next five minutes? At least the last Iraq war had a good foundation of lies leading up to it.

[-] Mrkawfee@feddit.uk 24 points 6 months ago

Fighting Israel's wars is the justification
