There are some things, imo, which are decidedly in our (ie the West's) interests which justify at least staying there

I'm not sure I agree

Pretty much anything we "need" to do in the middle east Israel will do for us if we leave

Israel is what I meant by "staying there" lol

why I used 'the West' as a whole : P

Oh

Then yeah I'm with ya

for me, if the rest of western civ would stop being such pussies about the issue Israel would have a freer hand in dealing with shit

This works out for the muh j00s guys as well

Why spend our blood and treasure when the Jews can use theirs?

The only thing you need to do, really, is allow them to go wild and hold back "international" (ie, Muslim) condemnation

I'm hoping the move to nuclear would progress quicker

would make oil a redundant resource

For a moment there I thought you meant that you hoped the move to nuke Iran would go quicker

lmao

Well, one can definitely read it as that, and I wouldn't disagree, tbh : P

I had the "geez!" sounder and everything

I'd prefer if the nuke came from Eretz Yisrael and not the United States

@Fondboy
*"The USA can keep Iran harmless (with nukes at least)..."*
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I'm not sure which is funnier, that you said it or that you meant it...

@Salacious Swanky Cat
Well, you won't mind in the least that Barrack gave Iran the bomb.

lol I framed that badly xD

I meant they can keep them harmless by making sure they don't have nukes

...
They.
Have.
Nukes.

Bobby Francis doesn’t need nukes, he’ll just break into your house and steal stuff

We were talking about Iran.
It was SWALLWELL who said he needed nukes...

Uh I know.

_"Turn in your gun, I got nukes..."_
🤣🤣 What s faggot...

So, is it just me, or are Kevlar back packs or Kevlar hoodies a REALLY bad idea.

Without having ceramic or metal plates to disperse the impact I would much rather a bullet penetrate my body than have 100% of it's energy ignite a bomb in my internal organs.

Ask a cop who's been shot. I'd wager they know a little about bullet resistant vests...

DJ, ¿do you not know how Kevlar works?

And here's Legalize, the *"scientist"* of pens, to explain Kevlar to you, @DJ_Anuz.
Go on, Leag, you know all about it. And psychology. And history, firearms, warfare, economics, on and on... With your degree in pens...

@Mandatory Carry Kevlar in and of itself isn't a bullet proof vest.

What I'm saying is a Kevlar backpack (as most these so called "bullet proof backpacks" are made of) doesn't have the ceramic or metal plates to disperse the bullets energy.

Having straight Kevlar (assuming it can stop the bullet) would transfer all the bullets energy right into your body. It would be like a mini grenade going off inside of you.

Kevlar is just soft body armor and will only stop handgun rounds. Rifle bullets will still go straight through it. Stopping a handgun round will bruise you pretty badly, but what you're describing sounds like some serious fuddlore

At best it's a Level IIIA, but better than nothing

Kevlar would only stop small arms fire, but what I'm saying is that even small arms fire would probably do more damage to your body unless you had some means to disperse the bullets energy than the damage a bullet would cause tearing through the body.

No, @DJ_Anuz, Kevlar vedts)/packs/etc. act like a net to "catch" the projectile and dispurse it over a wider area, and while I admit to skeptism about how *"resistant"* a backpack is (¿2Ø layers at 5 lbs? ¿who do they think they're kidding?), it doesn't transfer to the body.
... In theory.

...
I fucking hate theories btw.

I tuned in just in time for FondBoy!

@DJ_Anuz a 9mm bullet carries similar energy to a trained punch from a strong person. So the damage it can do to you is bruises or internal injuries from the impact.

B-but what if the shooter uses .50 BMG?

what if they use a gau-8?
