The military personnel killed in the refueling plane were 'heroes' (according to Hegseth).

But Kelly, decorated Gulf war vet and NASA pilot, is 'terrible' and 'pathetic'.

He also exonerated himself. (Fuck's sake)

Trump exonerted himself without an investigation.

'Giving no quarter' is explicitly prohibited in the US DoD code of conduct.

I deleted it because I had clearly failed to get my meaning across.

I was making a comment about the apparent crassness of US police and I wasn't suggesting that the attack on the synagogue wasn't extremely serious.

On reflection, any suggestion that it was an overreaction was wrong.

So you measure the seriousness of the incident by the number of policecars that turned up? And, by the time they turned up, the perp was already dead.

Yes. I'm Jewish.

Well that's fucking ok then isn't it.

Death??

What makes them heroes?

Did they do something heroic? Hold off dozens of enemies with only pistols to defend themselves? Rescue injured comrades under a hail of enemy fire? Protect vulnerable people against an enemy onslaught? What?

Incase you were wondering what Trump's "hand firmly on the wheel" looks like - here's a recent photo.

And ... at the same time, they use out of date target maps and - it's so tragic - killed hundreds of children. Still, that's what happens in war. And anyway, they were only Iranian children so, you know, only minor damage.

Vapid. Crass. Complicit.

He should be careful what he wishes for.

Raytheon sold Tomahawks to Iran?

Are we expected to believe that Trump goes among his people to hear their deires and hopes?

Yeah right. That's exactly what they said, word for word.

Don't tell me - let me guess. It was all a joke and the woke humorless cat ladies can't take a joke.

That answer is not the slam dunk he thinks it is.

Good grief! You have 38,000 characters and the story is only 14 pages long.

And he should be asked how Iran got hold of an American manufactured Tomahawk missile.

10.03.2026 16:09 ๐Ÿ‘ 1 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

And how exactly did Iran get hold of a Tomahawk missile - made by Raytheon in Tucson AZ and supplied only to US, UK, Australia and Japanese military?

Inllation is plummeting upwards, incomes are rising downwards, the economy is surging to the bottom.

Stalin used to do that.

Oh, but you clearly don't understand.

This isn't a war. It can't be a war because only Congress can declare war and it hasn't in this case.

That's what he will say.
