This. Look at how shitty we treat our soldiers. The Americans you help in the field, the lives you'll save, they will all appreciate it, but our leaders will go out of their way to fuck you over.

That's right. The platters are heavy, and the reader head is light, so we just whip the reader head around at 7200rpm

Well, they need to start by registering for the green party.

You can't show up on November 6th and say "everybody should have voted for Jill Stein!" After she barely gets more votes than the worm riddled antivax conspiracy theorist that dropped out of the race and backed trump.

Nah, you can read it again.

The point is that both of your points are factually incorrect.

I mean, if it's on clothing, it's not a flag, it's a flag image. Ergo, the flag code doesn't really give a fuck.

Ford makes (or at least made) and E-350 van. It can tow anything your truck can. And seat 11 people. And keep your equipment secured and safe from the elements. And it has a backup camera.

True true.

But you forgot that it does involve bombing Muslims.

Would have been easy enough for them to be allies with Ukraine, but they didn't do that, did they?

No, they want dependents. Allies have a choice. Dependents have an illusion of choice.

There are just as many countries between Iran and Russia as there are between Iran and China...

Then why would you say China is "right there" as an argument.

Also, the premise is not that Iran is a puppet state of Russia, but that they are dependent on Russia for security from other nuclear-armed countries. Russia doesn't want Iran to get nukes because they lose that valuable bargaining chip.

Let's sum up your arguments so far.

You think that Russia can't maintain control over other nations, and I provided a direct refutation of that.

You think that China was geographically closer to Iran than Russia was, and that is refuted with Google maps.

You need to take a look at the players, their motivations and the "board" and then come back with an actual assessment instead of plainly incorrect and unfounded opinions

Pretty much when the US was the only super power to survive WWII unscathed.

Also, having developed atomic hellfire, and the will to use it (twice), kinda makes you the big kid on the playground.

It wouldn’t work.

Look at that, it's working.

Plus, China is right there.

I think you should look at a map sometime. Unless you are taking about Russia-China relations, but that doesn't seem to be the context here.

Yeah. You think Russia is doing shit for free?

Glances at Belarus

Yeah. Okay.

You're reading the play like Russia wants an ally.

What they want is a dependent.

Doesn't matter.

Every impeachable offense needs to be processed. The time the GOP spends defending him is time they aren't spending actively destroying the world.

Plus, we need to have a clear and firm record of who supports his actions.

If Iran gets their own nukes, then Russia loses a big bargaining chip.

Honestly, that's probably the only reason why nukes weren't used.

Musta missed 2019 when the US was caught with their pants down during a global pandemic, despite having a pandemic plan in place just a few years prior. Ultimately ended up killing over a million Americans... And the guy got re-elected.

That's what the 25th amendment is for, but trump has always been a useful idiot. His mental state has never been a consideration, all that matters is his ability to sign whatever legislation crosses his desk

He just unilaterally had 3 nuclear sites in Iran bombed.
