We've launched an unprovoked and unwarranted attack Upon A Sovereign Nation. Now's the Time For Peace. It's an amazing sentiment. It's like a school bullies who hits you and then says you can't hit me back.

This feels a lot like start of a WW3 for the third time in past few years.

First it was Russia-Ukraine war, then it was Israel Hamas conflict, now its this.

This cunt Just Started World War 3.

Palantir, Meta, Microsoft are all going to control the world's armies. They're trying to remove the working class. The Rich are doing their own genocide of the working class.

He made a typo. It should read "there is not another military in the world that would have done this"

Now would be the time for you Americans to get your sacred guns out and eliminate your tyrannical goverment. Please act quickly before the fascist cunts get us all killed.

When Bush got the US into a war in the middle east, he at least did it after a terrorist attack on the US (which had nothing to do with Iraq, but he was able to fudge that part), and as a result of the stupidity of Americans, he had a 60+% approval rating at the time.

Trump didn't even manage a false flag or anything, as a result, a lot of conservatives are pissed off about this. Probably not enough to crack the MAGA coalition, but every little bit chipped away from it helps. With margins in the senate and house so close, it's actually possible that he could be stopped by congress and the US doesn't become a failed state, instead merely becoming an illiberal democracy.

But, what I wonder is if this will actually win him any converts from the Democratic side. I bet there are ultra pro-Israel people who were formerly Democrats who actually think this is a good idea, and will now start supporting Trump. Still, I think he's going to lose 90 MAGAs for every 10 Democrats he gains.

I honestly thought he wasn't a war monger judging from last term. Man, was I wrong. He's a complete POS.

Republicans, you can fire him at any time, you're letting this happen.

here is a trick to determine if they are warmongers:

are they capitalists? yes? then on a large enough timeline they will support war as long as it bring them profit. and war is always profit.

Hopefully this doesn’t backfire af on American civilians..

[–] martin4598@lemm.ee 24 points 5 days ago (9 children)

Sorry, but I hope it does. Aggression must have consequences, or there is no justice.
