A combat-unit commander told non-commissioned officers at a briefing Monday that the Iran war is part of God’s plan and that Pres. Donald Trump was “anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth,” according to a complaint by a non-commissioned officer.

From Saturday morning through Monday night, more than 110 similar complaints about commanders in every branch of the military had been logged by the Military Religious Freedom Foundation (MRFF).

The complaints came from more than 40 different units spread across at least 30 military installations

That’s most likely where he wants it to go. The second president to user nuclear weapons.

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 18 points 3 days ago (1 children)

He'll be all like "no one's ever launched a nuke as big as I have. Everybody is saying it. So big, very large boom."

Even if he wants to, capital won't let him. Too hard to extract the oil from a nuked out wasteland.

[–] JustSo@hexbear.net 28 points 3 days ago

they don't need that oil in that sense, they just need to control it. denying access to the region would suffice for the imperial project's designs.

[–] Tabitha@hexbear.net 7 points 3 days ago

The point of extracting oil from a nuclear wasteland is the cruelty, not the oil.

I think one characteristic of fascism is that it can start wagging the dog that is the capital class.
