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.
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.
Exactly, it feels like a distraction tactic, but any military move against Iran would be insanely risky. Definitely not a smart play.👌
Indeed, another distraction. I'm going to laugh if the EU NATO members tells the USA our airspace is off limits.
tomorrow we dine in hell

Imagine fighting and risking your life in a foreign country on behalf of a pedophile.
Hey, if we are fighting Islamic fundamentalists, they are doing it too.

Isn't this the 3rd time during the Epstein presidency that soldiers have been served their penultimate meal?
Bro. The Epstein presidency has been running since the mid-90s. It's a lot more than 3 times.
May they suffer in eternal hell for what they are doing
Focus that rage upward.
I have such distain for our military industrial complex and ICE, but I recognize so much of the problem is desperate people taking desperate measures. They decided it's better to risk your life in a foreign war than it is to be home watching you and your family whither away with no healthcare, education, or money. I don't agree but I can understand- debt will put anyone in a pressure cooker. Two things can be true at once- being a stoog for American imperialism makes you horrible, but people who are stooges can still be people to show sympathy for when you consider the factors at play.
When the revolution comes, as all revolutions do, it is only when the military allows the people to storm the gates. In my head we don't need to thank service members as much as say I'm so sorry what this country did to them.
I'm Persian, from Iran. I don't give a fuck why those yank butchers signed up to go murder my family. They already killed my moms side in Iraq now they're going to go kill my dad's side. Fuck them and I hope they burn in hell. I wish they would skip to the part where they shoot themselves drunk and spare my family that remains in Iran.
As an Iranian, I agree. Oh, poor baby needs to pay for college, so my dad needs to die? Disgusting ghouls.
Frankly, yea you're right. Our military is absolutely brutally evil. And the reason they were there was to make the rich richer. Frankly when Americans sign up for the military, they should choose a branch and an oil company to serve as well.
I can't really convince you of anything else, other than know that most everyone I talk to knows we have more in common with you halfway around the world than either of us do with the people who send the military to kill. We don't hate you, and I'm so sorry what they did to you.
On this side of the world, keeping our class divided will only perpetuate this cycle. War is as profitable an industry as healthcare, so why expect peace or cures if the people in charge are only in it for their own gain?
I'm so sorry for what this horrible country did. No one deserves that fate. But one day hatchets between comrades need to be buried and replaced with guillotines for kings.
I hear you, it’s heartbreaking how power and profit drive so much suffering. The real connections between people are far stronger than the systems that divide us.👌
Small story time because I realize the Neo-Futurists don't seem to record their show and this should be in writing somewhere.
Context: The Neo-Futurists are an experimental theater company based in Chicago but have spread internationally. They have a show where they do 30 scripts in an hour, so each "play" is like... 2 or 3 minutes.
When I went they had one play called "How to Kill a King"
The lights went dark. Then the projector turned on and said "put your phone and wallet into the bucket". The cast came out holding buckets, and everyone did just that, including me. Then the cast left the theater with the buckets.
Then the projector said:
"Your possessions will be waiting for you in the lobby after the show"
"Trust that you will have your wallet and phone back at the end of the show"
"Trust that the people around you won't steal your wallet and phone"
"Trust that the people around you have your best interest in mind, and don't wish you any harm"
"That is how you Kill a King"
And sure enough when we left, everyones stuff was splayed out on some tables and everyone got their stuff back.
That’s honestly brilliant. The way the Neo-Futurists turned something so simple into a real, physical experience of trust is kind of unsettling in the best way. It makes the message land way harder than if they’d just said it outright. You literally felt the vulnerability, the risk, and then the relief, which is exactly the point. Also, the fact that it happened in a room full of strangers in Chicago makes it even more powerful. That’s the kind of theatre people remember for years.👌
But it is Iranians in North America urging Trump to invade.
350,000 chanting "King Reza Pahlavi", they want to restore the monarchy and bring back the elite class.
Yes, let's listen to people living in the US constantly under US propaganda apparatus who won't suffer the consequence of invasion instead of, you know, actual Iranians living in the country

I think I need petah explains here. Not in the us military, so ignorante about this
This is the "You're about to maybe face gruesome death tomorrow" meal. It's one last pat on the back for morale before they send you to die.
Not in the us either, but these are thought of as 'quality' foods (especially for soldiers), so its akin to them having a 'last dinner' of sorts before a deployment. Since middle east, and US has syrian (or iranian??) interests I assume its Syria (or Iran?), and that something big is aboutto go down there.

It means it's surf and turf Friday at the chow hall?
Seriously. I spent 4 years in the army and "surf & turf night" is nothing unusual. And desserts & pies are available every day.
It actually spiked to 3 on Sunday night lol
The FBI sure love to support those that make Cheese Pizza
This is incredible.
