  • “Yemeni air defenses were able to shoot down an American plane (MQ-9) with a suitable missile while it was carrying out hostile missions against our country on behalf of the Zionist entity,” a Houthi military spokesperson, Yahya Sarea, said in a statement.

    “Yemeni armed forces will not hesitate to take more military measures and carry out more qualitative operations against all hostile targets in defense of beloved Yemen,” the statement said.

    I'm struggling to see which part of this statement is braggadocious.

  • Nope.

    More money = more drones = more power = undefeatable.

    /s obviously, but it is maddening to hear people talk about modern civil wars as if they're fought like the American revolutionary war: huge fronts of soldiers walking toward each other, where more bodies and resources were more indicative of a strong force.

    That line of thinking went out the window 100 years ago. The sheer might of the US army does not mean as much when it takes just one disgruntled Texan to shoot critical power transformers, take a government official's child hostage, blow up rail lines, etc..

    The idea that the American army is an unbeatable force because of our money expenditure is nothing more than American exceptionalism, and I'd encourage believers of that line of thinking to learn about modern guerilla warfare.

  • Can we stop wasting food for these dumbass "cursed" images? Just goes to show how little we respect our food, the people who work to grow it, or the massive privilege we have to mostly be able to eat whatever we want.

    Put yourself in the shoes of a mom who's been struggling to feed her kids for weeks on end, and then you see this picture from some American.

  • That pesky "one issue" happens to be an ongoing genocide.

    "Sure, he's all about sending 10,000 tons of military equipment across the world to add to the 20,000 killed Palestinians, but he's VERY pragmatic about other issues."
