@ClownWorld People wonder why Bill Gates and the elite want to get rid of billions of people. This is what they see when they look at the population. I'm not saying it's right but I understand.
We were told the program was “obliterated” in the summer. That’s what they told us. Direct quote. It cannot be the case that the program was both obliterated and also close to being “immune” to attack. That is a logical impossibility. A contradiction in terms. Like a square circle. It makes no sense.
I’ve been told continuously that we can’t actually do mass deportations (much less mass denaturalizations) because it’s impractical, expensive, politically unpopular, and risky. Maybe it is all of those things. But this operation in Iran is also all of those things. If we are going to do something explosive and drastic with potential major political fallout, why aren’t we doing it here? Why aren’t we doing it in our homeland for our own people? You might say that we can do both. Can we? Will we? A lot of conservatives are asking this question. Maybe not on this site right now. But they’re asking it. And rightly so.
As always I only support military action anywhere, in any context, if it directly serves the interests of American citizens. It’s troubling that the arguments we’re hearing for this war in Iran, including from Trump himself, seem to revolve primarily around “bringing freedom to the Iranian people.” As Americans, the freedom of Iranians is not our responsibility. If a single American life is lost in the service of that goal, it will be a travesty.
What nobody has even come close to sufficiently explaining is how this war will first and foremost directly benefit American citizens. That is a case that needed to have been made clearly and convincingly before this move, and it wasn’t. We’re also told how this will benefit Israel, and I’m sure it will. But Israel is not America. What does it do for America? How does it help us? That needs to be explained to us. And it isn’t “panicking” or demonstrating “disloyalty” to demand those very basic answers about how American tax money, and potentially American lives, are being spent.
We hear about the danger of a nuclear Iran, but that’s odd because we were told that Iran’s nuclear capabilities had already been set back decades. We hear that this war will be over quickly and easily because Iran is powerless, which I hope and pray is the case, and maybe it will be. But that’s odd, too, because if Iran is such a paper tiger then how were they a danger to us in the first place? It seems hard to argue both that Iran is an existential threat to the United States and that we can topple them in 20 minutes with no casualties or negative downstream effects.
Also the political calculation really matters here. A huge majority of American oppose this. That’s just a fact. If it costs Republicans in 26 and 28, then, no matter how things work out in Iran, it will not have been worth it. A free Iran at the cost of Democrat rule here at home is a bad deal. A free Iran for an unfree America would be just about the worst trade of the century.
I’m praying for our great country today.
@gags_MN@gotrice2024 Never once in the video did the cop ever say or ask the kid anything. The kid almost got ran over was trying to catch his balance and was probably scared.
@gotrice2024 That's how 11 yr old white children doing tricks in the road are treated in our country. This is all we did in 95'. Yet street takeovers, gas station mobs and violet thugs with glock switches get no accountability.
@GovernorLuca@MattWalshBlog Every genre of music does the same thing in fact pop music is more reliable to use 3 chords than country. Classical, Heavy metal and Jazz would be the exceptions.
