The attacks are the first of many expected to take place.
Washington Post’s Dan Lamothe has said that while the U.S. struck more than 85 individual targets in Iraq and Syria, these were spread just eight general locations in those two countries.
U.S. officials have stressed that there is no plans currently to strike targets in Iran.
we dont need to strike Iran directly. once their international assets get frozen they’ve got a limited window where they can do anything, and we just blew up most of their anything.
So, do we get to start calling what’s happening everywhere world war 3 or is there like some committee that meets on this?
Once some major players start conscripting people I think it’d be reasonable to call it WW3. This is the preamble
Hasn’t russia been conscripting for a couple of years now?
major players
whether you or me like them or not, they are a major player.
now we just need china and a couple more euro countries to join in on the fun.
Well it did say major players, plural. If you have major players directly in opposition and both feeling the need for conscription…
thats russia and the US right now.
I don’t see any draft in the US happening right now…
Hopefully, they don’t lose 1/3rd of their navy accidentally… again.
Hell yeah we just won in Afghanistan this is a great moment to start another winnable war in the middle east. Thanks Biden.
finally Biden authorizes something.
Isn’t this all because the usa is supporting Israel and Iran is pushing back against countries supporting the genocide there?
Ah yes Iran, that great bastion of human rights where they throw gay people off buildings and stone people to death.
Iran doesn’t give a shit about Palestinians. Instability in the region keeps them in relative power. Everything they do should be viewed in that light.
At least a woman can get an abortion in Iran lol. Glass houses and what not.
Also, your country should stop supporting genocide. I believe that was the topic.
I feel like I’m taking crazy pills…
Half of Americans still support the ongoing genocide so it’ll be a while until it clicks, in the slow one’s heads. The downvotes are funny Imo, notice there’s never any pushback.
pushback… like arguing with the crazy people on the internet? no, that’s a giant waste of time. it’s simpler to downvote or block and move on
No, pushback as in defense of your barbaric laws. Ignorance is bliss though, so you do you ✌️
Why on earth would you expect people here to defend stupid ass laws in the US? We have more reason than anyone to fucking hate them, but that doesn’t make your nonsense any less of a pointless strawman and a waste of time to respond too. Enjoy the five minutes you sucked out of life with this absolute waste of bits.
My friend you implied that LGBT people getting thrown off of buildings was equivalent to states banning abortion, that’s why I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.
Uhh. Yeah… Both are ending in the deaths of innocent people. They’re definitely comparable lol.
Mothers in states with abortion bans nearly 3 times more likely to die
Instability in the region keeps them in relative power.
how is that so?
Because with stability, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen would have control of the world’s trade through the Red Sea and Suez Canal. Making tons of money on shipping through the region. Their regional power is de facto because other countries in the region are unstable and can’t secure trade through the canal.
how does that consolidate their power? i tought they didnt have direct influence over the canal, and are even trying to set up an alternative?
To anyone visualizing a comically long canal running straight through like 5 countries, you’re not actually far off. Unfortunately, it’s just a railroad to Moscow.
