Amerikkkan "politics" are wild
-
Finding myself agreeing with MTG and Tucker Carlson has made for a wild week.
We live in an upside-down world.
-
I guess 'war makes strange bedfellows' applies on the anti-war side too
-
-
If MTG is the sane one between the two of you, you know you are deadly wrong
-
Strange days when MTG is making the most sense.
-
They are eating each other.

God damn America. We're such fucking scumbags dude. Look forward to further fascist policies domestically now. Anyone against Trump now is going to get labeled an enemy of the state during war time.
We are so fucking dumb and bloodthirsty. This is just 2003 but somehow with an even dumber president and far far less allies.

Saying NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE after dropping six bunker busters is like if I said NOW IS THE TIME TO SUCK MY NUTS after I had a bilateral orchidectomy and they were incinerated. Like, yeah, that'd be nice if it happened, but it's not going to happen and you know it. Anyway, I hope he eats a rake

what a pathetic loser who only bombs countries that won't send bombs back. It's telling they never drop bombs on Russia or China despite all the posturing.
-
Not even on DPRK. In case of dealing with USA peace is the question and nuclear bomb is the answer.

Starts match
Scores one (1) point
"We should stop now."

Also remember that trump didn’t attack the Russian or Chinese nuclear plants in Iran.
-
Moreover, they bombed the entrances of an empty nuclear site to suffocate people who weren't inside
-
Seems like they know better? Putin said there was an agreement between Israel and themselves not to touch them. There was a moment when an Israeli F35 entered the airspace over the Russian plant and triggered an air raid siren. Thought they might actually be stupid enough.

"Very successful" is just Trump's mouth. The damage is very minimal. The hearts of the facilities are very deep underground. Add to that, Iran had already evacuated everything 3 days before the attack.
I've seen one Vietnamese netizen speculated that it's all a show, that Trump has secretly notified Iran about the attack. Let's see if they're right by measuring Iran's retaliation against the US: If Iran would only fight with words, it would be proven.

So I know US "checks and balances" are kind of a joke and US laws aren't exactly famous for being humanitarian in the first place, but is this even legal under US law? My understanding is congress voted for the infamous "Iraq war" and congress is supposed to be consulted for going to war, and has not been consulted for Iran. This action taken seems to be effectively an informal declaration of war. I don't see how else one could interpret it. No matter what Trump posts on the internet, you can't just bomb someone and then say you want peace and no consequences. And that's on top of the fact that he obviously doesn't want peace and neither does israel.
Not that it's really a surprise, considering Trump behaves like the other branches of government don't exist. But I guess what I'm getting at is, even at basement level US standards, this seems to be a violation of its own laws.

The idea that the US has any restrictions on violence or war, formal or informal, is an illusion. It's part of the facade of "liberal democracy".
The US hasn't "declared war" since WW2, but has militarily killed somewhere in the area of 15 million people since then by my estimate. Probably a lot more when you add in all the illegal unilateral sanctions. The UN exists to legitimize US wars and imperialism, and fails to do even that most of the time. There are zero consequences, so the only meaningful policy the us has adhered to in the last 100+ years is "might makes right".
-
To make it worse I belive it was after 9/11 but it might have been earlier, Congress authorized the President to start a "conflict" with any nation they deem as a threat, just so long as it legally is not called a war the president can do it.
Though this is irrelevant because the law does not matter in the US its a fiction no one is willing to follow any more.

It was always going to happen. It's a country that said no to racial supremacy in the region. That's the reason, always has been, always will be.
-
Iran doesn't have the capability to conduct an "all-out war across the region." The are going to condemn the attack, launch another couple hundred missiles at Israel, and then hope that the US and Israel get bored and stop.
