But Hegseth citing a prayer from Pulp Fiction movie, claiming it was from the Bible?

Can we please skip to the part where all these sonofabitches shoot themselves in the head in a bunker?

As an “add on” thread to the Artemis one, and to steer away a bit from all the wars, problems, etc we are facing - I want to share with you this AI video, that I found absolutely masterpiece and fascinating. I don’t know this AI guy :—) but he’s farking brilliant. Absolutely worth watching (thanks m...

Russia would be no match against Europe in a war. The EU+UK has 500 million people and way more capability to crank out hardware. Plus European weapons are mostly higher tech. Russia barely has a navy at this point. Italy alone on a war economy could afford to outspend Russia in every field. Imagin...

Did you notice that Vance is actively campaigning for Orban - ie the only ally Russia has into the EU?
Fact is - every farking move this failed US administration does - it favours Russia big time.
Including this Iran war

AlanBengio

Still cannot understand what NATO has to do with USA losing the war in Iran
Why is Europe blamed?

AlanBengio

Yep. Extremely unlikely Probably worth exercising caution with Iranian claims too. They claimed several shoot downs during the course of the war before they were actually right. Actually it confirms imo that Iran is telling the truth. It may confirm also a little bit USA account of events. Think ab...

The hannibal directive is an Israeli thing... (the sort of thing psychotic zealots do)... as bad as the US are, there's zero chance of them doing that imo. Yep.

Everyone in Italy has one in the house; every hotel and house has one. Every Italian like to wash his ass clean after going to toilet - the best treatment you could have after. We honestly cannot figure out how all the rest of the world can carry out without washing their asses after that (you cann...

Looking forward to seeing the first interview with the rescued soldiers - they’re taking their time considering the PR effort to spin the rescue as a big success despite losing $300m+ of military hardware. The bottom line is that they shouldn’t have been there in the first place, and how were they ...

"But why didn't france help us with our bullshit, pointless war that we went out of our way to start for absaloutley no reason" Regardless, a tough day at the office for the US airforce.

Score update: Don 1 Bored 0 Well as it is usually USA telling the bullshit and Iran telling the truth I believe to Iran latest war bulletin, which indicates two additional helicopters plus couple of planes taken down by them during this rescue, which confirms it was no Venezuela scenario at all.

Another thing it struck me about this war - is that Iranians bulletins are usually the ones telling the truth They never claim things that were not proven - this is why I believed this story about the plane shot down being true since the beginning (whereas there were doubts). You can double check th...

AlanBengio

Let’s state this again: Iran as a strategic plan, which is working perfectly fine as far as we outsider can observe. First time US planes venture for more important targets into Iran = two US planes get shot down. Coincidence? I think not Anyway this is a big propaganda win from a country Trump just...

AlanBengio

I've said it before on this fred but the main reason Trump and his entourage started the war with Iran was to test the US military's obedience and allegiance... And remove those who don't pass the test Exactly. Trump reportedly told others he needs ‘the kind of generals that Hitler had’ https://www...

Trump, the one who claimed last week “Iran wanted to make me their Supreme Leader but I refused”, is doing everything possible (consciously or not) to make USA lose the war with Iran (forever damaging USA role and reputation); at the same time all his decisions are empowering back Russia again, agai...

Interview: John Mearsheimer: "Iran Holds All the Cards" - The Strategic Defeat of the U.S. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBOVT0UdHXg Another inciteful interview.

AlanBengio

Of course they can't win. The best they can hope for is a form of staus quo, but even that is unlikely considering the money they have to spend, money they simply don't have. And the rhetoric that keeps them in power is clearly becoming harder and harder for the population to believe, when their le...

This war isn't like other wars. And if the media was patriotic they would be singing it's praises and hailing Trump. https://m.youtube.com/shorts/e4JJLvRao38 This is worse than those wars.

Last year was the first year since the Great Depression with more people (legally) leaving the U.S. than (legally) moving in. Negative net migration: US citizens leaving USA surpassed legal migrants entering USA. The trend is increasing this year. Looks like Trump was also able to bankrupt the Ameri...

I mean, what could be worse, right? :| This?

They do. Don't capitulate and make life miserable for everyone so that the US and Israel don't win either. They can't win, but there's a path to survival where that everyone loses. I would argue their plan is possibly to win this war - forcing USA et all coming to their terms. It is almost one mont...
