Dude had his m#r.de.r kit in the car and the hole already dug. Then he set the trap. George H.W. Bush went into his presidency knowing he wanted to destroy the nation of Iraq. He knew it wouldn't be hard to provoke Saddam. It didn't take a genius to figure out that this unstable,

@sovietwithsazon Dude, are you ok? I've been dealing with hormonal imbalances the past year, I know how hard it can be. I really hope you're getting all the help you need. I also know what it's like to have your community comment on your weight gain like that. I'm sorry. 🥴

What happened in the lead up to the first Gulf War is a perfect example of how the criminals in our political class operate in perfect parallel with the monsters of your run of the mill True Crime Documentary. Those who are successful at getting away with murder
