Usually I take issue with that take, because nobody would be fighting unless they thought they knew a way to win (which implies a weakness even in a strong adversary), but fuck everything, this orange fool can't help but fit every stereotype and definition.

Unaltered DJT tweets are finally the perfect noncredibledefense tweets. Silver lining I guess

The USA after the September 11 attacks on the WTC declared war on terror and invoked article 5 of the NATO treaty.

In the two following wars (Afghanistan and Iraq) and the resulting instable occupation of both, many servicemen from other NATO countries lost their lives in service to US wars.

It is also good to remember who created the Mujahideen, the Taliban and Al-Qaeda in the first place, because that's all the US.

And what of Iran? Well the US wanted Mohammad Mosaddegh (the secular and democratically elected leader of Iran) gone, because he wanted to nationalize the iranian oil. So the CIA staged a coup to put the Shah in place who let US and british oil companies into the country again, a totalitarian, dictatorial monarch who suppressed his own people so much, that they turned to the only power left that was able to rid them of his tyranical rule: The Mullahs.

All of this, every little bit, is COMPLETELY the US' fault and ALWAYS has the USA been unable to clean their own mess themselves alone.

While it is a dramatisation and takes creative liberties, I still wholeheartedly recommend Charlie Wilson’s War as a way to explain just how the US managed to fuck itself by abandoning the Mujahideen and the Afghan people (and not for the last time) post-Soviet defeat - directly leading to the creation of Al’Qaeda, and therefore the 9/11 attacks.

Plus it has Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts, so it’s an easy watch.

Because if you can't win with rhetoric then killing is the next best option. Brought to you by fascists white washing murder into a wholesome movie.

It's important not to conflate the attack on Iraq with NATO. Not that many nations were dumb enough to follow Bush into that one

Exactly, The Article 5 thing didn't fly, so they created a "coalition of the willing" instead. But that didn't have anything to do with NATO.

Still, many members of the "willing" were NATO members, so NATO servicemen lost their lives for a US war.

1

Most NATO members weren't part of that 'coalition', and most members of that coalition weren't NATO members. So I think it's at the very least a bit disingenious to try and rub those two things together

I do hope he continues with the anti-NATO rhetoric so that Europe is pushed further into the direction of making an EU Army. Inshallah

Did you reopen this post and that was the only new comment? The Summit client does that (starting a while ago)

Someone made a Trump AI but forgot to tell it not to use them. His brain is so toast there's no way he had the attention to write all that. It's totally PedoAI.

Woah that's actually pretty telling if he's not even writing this garbage anymore

Looks like staffers won't even write this garbage anymore. That is how unpopular he is.

He should ask his Board of Peace members to help him

21

Why did he ask all his supposed allies he has treated like trash for the past year for help then? I thought they don't need help?

21

The People's Republic of America has beaten the Iran military into absolute submission and totally demolished any chance of retribution!

We will be continuing this war that we already have totally won! The bombarding of the Strait of Hormuz will continue, until the willingness for unarmed ships to cross it improves!

I can't WAIT until the narcissist realizes he is at the end of his line, I hope he fails to Hitler himself in some bunker. I hope he is captured alive.

JFC what a sad cry baby... The other boys didn't wanted to play with him because he's creepy and can't stop looking under the girls dresses, and now he's literally whining about it to the entire world

This is your president, USA!

Why doesn't anyone want to help clean up the mess I made?

He seriously reminds me of a child throwing Lego all over the floor.

"Dad, since crossing the room is important to you, you should help me clean it all up!"

No you little shit, things were reasonably fine before you fucked it all up. Now fix it!

Posting donald trump posts in this community is like using truffle oil in food

It makes everything 5 times more expensive, and leaves you with a mouldy aftertaste?

I can see how the second part is true, but the first part? It's not the posting here that makes things more expensive, it's the shit trump is doing.

2

Wait, I thought there were already a bunch of countries lined up to help, just trying to get all of their ships to Hormuz to help open a strait that's already open in order to win a war that's already over against a country whose military has been completely destroyed in order to eliminate a nuclear program which was completely obliterated eight months ago and could never be rebuilt?

This is "The Old Lady Who Swallowed A Fly" but the old lady is on a really bad acid trip.

7

Says the leader of the only country to ever invoke article 5 and take everybody on a useless war for oil…

7

Probably listened to his Nazi supporters such as QAnon too much who believe The Jews^TM^ rule the world from behind the scenes. So having Israel on board equals having the entire world's backing by that twisted logic

3

Did someone tell him that Perun had cut the "here's why the US doesn't have enough boats to escort all the traffic through the strait and would need a coalition to have any chance of success" part from his latest video, or is that just a deeply ironic coincidence.

I stopped reading after the first sentence because trump and his followers pulled out of NATO. Or did everyone just randomly forget that?

You're correct. Maybe he was just blabbering his fat mouth about leaving it then?

He made a lot of noise about it but TACO'd on that, too. Now he's mad because NATO won't help him make us terrorists.
