It's not a meme, it's real

Nothing says now is the time for peace like dropping bombs on people, amirite?

Any member of the US army is a criminal, you are not defending your nation, you are attacking another one.

Stupid cunt actually wrote “Thank you for your attention to this matter.” Like he’s some douche reminding you to pay a bill.

You can always count on the USA to start new wars.

Please tell me none of these bombs were nukes...

Fucking amazing.

PNAC gets its way in the end, despite at least 40% of Trump's rise to political prominence being due to him being one of the few Republicans to criticize... you know, all the pointless meddling and wars in the ME.

... And Trump is almost single handedly responsible for all of this.

He tore up the nuke deal Obama made. He massively mismanaged every element of the Israeli/Palestine situation. Fucking stepson Kushner's gonna figure it out, don't worry.

Oh yeah lets piss off everyone and move the embassy to Jerusalem.

Beyond contemptible.

The man is a demon.

Kefka?

Is Trump Kefka, or is that an insult to Kefka?

Fucking childish demon clown that just wants to blow up the whole world so he can feel special.

May the US Empire crumble to dust, its only vestiges a dark stain on human existence for future historians to look on with disgust.

We've become the United States of Israel. Don't let anyone tell you differently. They put Israel first, not Americans.

The US must be brought to heel.

I hope that Iran will make Project 2025's backers find out. Our bastard leadership think there are no consequences for doing evil and stupid things, and are in severe need of an attitude readjustment.

[–] WoodScientist@sh.itjust.works 41 points 2 days ago (8 children)

Iran would be perfectly within their rights to assassinate various US government officials. After all, that's exactly what the US and Israel have been doing in Iran.

This feels a lot like start of a WW3 for the third time in past few years.

First it was Russia-Ukraine war, then it was Israel Hamas conflict, now its this.

[–] Rainbowblite@lemmy.ca 33 points 2 days ago (1 children)

WW2 didn't start overnight. There was a series of military actions that went unchallenged. That only made the belligerents bolder.

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 22 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Indeed. WW2 was a massive slow-walk into the full war. Everyone saw it coming from a mile away and nobody did anything to stop it. Similar to now where everyone can see that this is going to open more fronts.

At one point all the fronts might band together with more and more suddenly joining each side, and boom you have WW3.

Hopefully Iran keeps to its promise to bomb every US military installation in the Middle East if the US intervened.

Well... Hopefully my 2 year old doesn't have to fight in this bull shit. :/

I know you meant that this could escalate to a long war that your child may eventually be drafted into, but my initial mental image was a battalion of toddlers each carrying a Fisher Price branded "Baby's First Assault Rifle".

He made a typo. It should read "there is not another military in the world that would have done this"

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 43 points 2 days ago (15 children)

We've launched an unprovoked and unwarranted attack Upon A Sovereign Nation. Now's the Time For Peace. It's an amazing sentiment. It's like a school bullies who hits you and then says you can't hit me back.
