    Could buy a lot of healthcare with that money. Killing people in both countries instead of helping anyone in either.

      I think the silver bugs might be on to something. Did you know there is somewhere between 15 - 500oz of silver in each of those defensive missiles they are firing?

    Less than 25% people support it. Every country has some crazies, but we’re basically all pissed.

      Unlikely. 25% may support it, but few people outside of here are actually pissed. They just don’t really care to understand the situation. If 75% cared, we would have rioting in the street and not just useless protest signs doing jack shit.

      We did next to nothing about ICE, and that’s in our backyard. We won’t do a damn thing about a foreign country.

    Seems like an illegal war to distract the masses from a poor economy, an out of control immigration enforcement agency, and an Epstein cover up. At this point I just hope the people of Iran end up in a better position than before the war but I’m not optimistic.

    Side note: it also seems like Trump may be cozying up to Israel to gain favor in Gaza rebuild.

    Edit: I should have clicked the link prior to just stating my views

    We are in a war meant to end the world because too many dumbfucks in power have an imaginary friend.

    This war brought to you by Israel. Israel, blackmailing the worlds most rich and powerful with impunity for the past 50+ years. /advertisement

      Don’t forget

      • broadcast some people celebrating in the street of the country you just bombed so that it seems like it was justified.

      “See, we liberated them from tyranny! The same tyranny I wield at home!”

      I haven’t been paying attention to this, if it hasn’t happened already, I guarantee the talking points from the MAGA civilians will shift to being world police again, and how we had to bomb them to release them from the dictator. Ya know the same people that were angry just 2 years ago about how we stick our noses all over the world and don’t take care of our own at home, which Trump ran his entire campaign on: “America first” and all that.

    Americans born in the last 30 years have seen the USA engaged in some form of conflict in the Middle East most of their life. I imagine they’re numb and mostly don’t give a fuck.
