Good mod. ❤️
Good mod but God damn great title lol.
I wholly agree.
Thanks Maeve ❤️
Didn't do anything but share the wavelength. I'm glad we do. ❤️
I fall in love with you more and more every day ❤️ i know it's unrequited
Lol. Have you seen my dark side?! A few dark archetypes definitely reside within, and I'm okay with that, just learning to manage them, right? You're alright. I'm alright. Everyone is alright. We are where we are, just have to prod ourselves to grow when we get weary. And rest when we're doing to much. Be well, comrade.
Rest in piss
AJ is disgusting.
How so? AJ is just quoting CENTCOM here.
It doesn't have to copy the exact wording centcom use
Agreed, but I also don't think that it's wrong to directly quote someone. It doesn't necessarily reflect the author's opinion on the matter or make them "disgusting".
I believe in journalism where only facts and accurate words are used not the fake balance that infect modern day journalism
That's not centcom
That's a quote from another commenter in this thread, not from the AJ article. So how is this relevant?
I'm wondering if comments are out of order for me? They seem not to have been properly federating over the weekend, possibly since Thursday.
Jordan is not attacking Iran, Jordan is the defender between those two nations. Furthermore, even an aggressor can defend against enemy attacks. That is simple English. Very odd you find it 'disgusting' to accurately describe defenders as defenders.
Jordan is hosting American bases, which are being used to attack Iran. Jordan has only to deny its territory and airspace to Amerikan and Israeli terrorists.
Also, Iran is not attacking Jordan. Iran is attacking American bases in Jordan.
Iran is defending the Jordanien people from Israel, to which the army is capitulating, unlike Hisbollah. Very disingenuous Zionist framing, there.
The bases are used to attack iran. Jordan is the agressor and no the agressor has no right to defend itself in an illegal war
Iran is attacking American soil. End of story.
Most people join the US military to get socialist benefits, calling random soldiers who have likely contributed nothing to the attacks in Iran and we're likely in the military before Trump declared war and are bound by law to stay in, thugs is a stupid take. Are there terrible people in the US military sure, but I'd argue that most of them are decent people trying to eek out a basic life and would prefer not to kill or be killed in combat.
No fuck them and fuck you. Iwould rather starve than assist in an illegal war. They are not thugs they are terrorists
Stop with the clean wheremacht nonsense. Stormtroopers getting mulched is good.
Most thugs join gangs to get benefits too. And most thugs would draw the line at bombing a school.
US military was an evil bunch of hooligans long before Trump. I have no repect for anyone who chooses to join there.
Epstein's body guards, pilots and crew all needed money to feed their families too.
The US Imperial military is itself a horrendous organization, filled with people that signed up to willingly participate in the war machine.
