No, this actually works, this is actually a legitimate strategy. They're just morons who don't understand how it works.

Hey, we don't all have the luxury of Nazi gold and ignoring the atrocities committed by our neighbours!

Damn bro I didn‘t know that Nazigold timetravelled back into the past to protect us during ww1 and ww2, that‘s crazy!

I mean the US actually does all of those things.

The US space program was literally started by Nazi scientists

When was the last time Switzerland actively made first strikes against countries not violating your territory?

These don't feel equivalent.

See, you‘re misunderstanding the concept as well.

Peace through strength simply means „be too strong to be conquered“ or „make any invasion too costly“, not „bully everyone into submission“

Also bitch boy is directly quoting the government from V for Vendetta. And he doesn't even see the irony.

Makes me extra intrigued about what's going on in the Department of War building now.

You just unlocked a core memory. I forgot all about those graphs and the little red plastic strips you used to view them.

What is comical is that the Trump administration thinks any of this is new. The us is always shooting at someone.

peace through strength

Isnt that a quote of the voice of London from v for Vendetta?

He definitely read that line in a book somewhere and went "hell yeah" instead of being horrified (the author's likely intent)

11

It's from George Orwell's book 1984 so he definitely listened to the audio book and said, "I wanna be like that!"

Edit: I was mistaken. The quote from 1984 is "war is peace." It's similar though.

It's a riff off the sign above German concentration camps gates.

Arbeit macht frei "work sets you free"

I would honestly love to know which moron thought that was a good use of time and money and why.

I remember when the original name for the invasion of Iraq was "Operation Iraqi Liberation" until somebody decided that was a little too obvious an acronym.

They could have swapped the words around. Rough Spear. Midnight Rider. Southern Hammer.

They chose not to.

Kinda reminds me of people calling cspan to inform the elderly viewers what Kavenga meant.

Operation spitroast is starting! The double shaft is out! I repeat, he double shaft is out! And they're gonna do until the bubble pops and the economy relaxes! There's going to be a lot of white stuff all over the place in a big big mess!

Usually operation names are a bit cleverer than that so I'm guessing he came up with those names himself.

Also is a member of the international community I can safely assure you that no one is worried about trump's "business" skills.

Operation southern spear: murder innocent fishermen

Yeah, these assholes.dont fuck around

I've never heard any one of these names but they all fit perfectly.

I think this tells more about Bruce who seems to know all these terms tbh

Are you surprised the colorfully dressed bearded man with a Rainbow Flag in his name knows about gay sex terms?

I didn't know about any of this stuff until ol Bruce here laid it out here. I dont know how Bruce knows this stuff but it seems to admit more than he probably thinks

Edit: nvm I just noticed his flags. He definitely knows about that stuff and probably doesnt care.

This is ridiculous. The names are perfectly fine. Well. The southern spear one does not make sense to me. It's framing as a defensive war against drugs and there being multiple victims separated by substantial time don't feel like a spear to me.

Harpoon, or southern shield feel more in line with their other propaganda.

The southern spear in question is their dick. This regime is into molestation, be it child or country.
