So um, the united states just started another war in the middle east. We're going to need a shit ton more memes to distract americans from the nightmare they are enduring. Thanks in advance...

Sounds like some young people who haven't been through this before. This is not going to lead to a war. The USA has been bombing other countries continuously for decades.
I mean, I dont see how it isnt a war already, this kind of thing is an act of war after all, and the other side doesnt have to be capable of equal retaliation for the term to apply.

...this is... war?.... you want troops on the ground? Careful what you wish for.
you want troops on the ground?
Genuinely don't know what reality you're living in if you are typing this question after reading my comment.

wrote last edited by [email protected]It doesn't really matter what you call it. W. and Obama normalized not declaring war on the countries you bomb. Unless the US plans to invade, it won't be a war in the traditional sense of the word.

I believe their meaning was, 'Do you have to see boots on the ground before you call it a war?', not accusing you personally of wanting war.

I hear you, the issue for me is that a third of your country people voted for the cunt, another third didn't care enough not to vote against the cunt, which leaves a large majority of Americans complicit in this - enough in my view to effectively use the term as a blanket reference to most people in the country.
Speaking on a more granular level, I wish you well and the best of luck - but the majority of your population can go fuck themselves.
A third did not vote for him. The popular vote was something like 51 to 48, which is insanely close. And a record number of people didn't even vote.
It's more like 1/6 voted for the asshole, and then the dems gave up the win before the night even ended.

Might be the toughest opponent we've bombed since Iraq, which technically wasn't a declared war either.
You're absolutely right, this won't likely get bad for Americans. Being so far away with a huge military insulates us from the consequences of our actions abroad.

My only point with my original comment is that people are freaking out as though this is about to be Iraq War take 3. I see no evidence of that. It would require an invasion.
I mean how many dozens of times have we done something similar to this without anything becoming of it? Didn't Trump literally assassinate an Iranian general during his last term?

America did not. The U.S./Donald Trump did.

I voted for Kamala Harris. Never liked that orange fuck.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a video that Trump called him after the strikes: “It was a very warm conversation, very emotional.”
Speaking in Hebrew, he called Trump a friend of Israel like no one before him.https://apnews.com/live/israel-iran-war-updates#00000197-9582-d77f-a797-ffaf39a20000
Thanks guys, real glad we didn't vote for that evil fascist Harris and paved the way for Mr. No New Wars...

It was very important for palistine.

The US hasn't declared war since 1942. It goes back way further than W or Obama.

A lot of people didn't vote for him. A lot of people didn't vote for democrat either. A growing number of people are voting for third parties now. Not enough to sway the vote, but enough to make a statement.
I think, in my lifetime, we will see a third party finally elected. The leading parties just aren't cutting it anymore.

wrote last edited by [email protected]Korea was a UN "police action" and Vietnam was a "conflict."
Crucially, Congress did not formally declare war in either case, nor did they for the Gulf war, Afghanistan, Iraq, Grenada, etc.

Don't think for a second we dont feel a strong flood emotions when we see the 66% of Americans who are a complete drain on the people around them face consequences for their actions(or inaction). The fact is, it doesnt happen nearly enough and it never changes anything.
Has it ever crossed anyone's mind, that those of that didn't vote, was usually because we didn't approve of either candidate?
I never approved of orange baby, plain and simple.
Kamala was cool though, looking to help people and not deceive them, and I just might have voted for her.
But even though I have no problem with a female president, she would have too many world stage problems with countries and groups that don't respect women at all.
So, seeing both as a risk, why would I have voted for either? Like, why did Pete Buttiguieg drop out?
That's the real question, what forces in play made my dude Pete drop out? I sure as hell would have voted for him!
