but still.. even if we did go in with max efficiency to win.. I doubt itd be successful and itd def not be worth it

it was 'alledgedly' about killing saddam, then it became about taliban, then it became about isis, and now that the supposed head of isis is dead, its going to become about something else

except by all accounts, by the goals our government 'claimed' to have, we're fucking victoriaous

wooo yay we own a desert now... yayyy... i guess

the only problem is, victory isn't what the government wants

we own a desert next to a buncha sandnigs.. woooooo

<:Doubt:588038713938804760>

you can't milk a one-and-done war for 20 fucking years, after all

fuc the middle east

im LIKE so. over it

what part of its not conquest isn't getting through to you?

im saying even if it was

thatd still be gay

you realise there are other goals in war than annexation of land

you do know this

that's not a question

even if we say the end goal is to occupy the land its still like... totally worthless land

and also this idea that we just kill sandnigs

and they dont come back <:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>

no shit, which is why that's the one plate of steaming shit the feds won't even bother trying to serve us

the people don't WANT the middle east

want nothing to do with it

its like trying to stomp out.... a uh

highly resilient insect species

_cough_

yk

_cough_

but the feds seem to think "oh if we say the 'T' word enough they'll pipe down"

ye FBI: " TERRORISM TERROR arent you TERRIFIED? now can we buy more missiles pls... cuz I have stocks in the company that makes them so.... "

just like when they thought "oh, if we say the 'C' word enough they'll pipe down about Vietnam"

yeah, how'd that work out

im like bruh i want drone strikes on the southern border more then i want them in the ME

"This will not be another Vietnam" Said the ever more retroactively incorrect Bush Jr.

the elites man... fucking gross

zionists too

FREGGIN NEOCON ZIONISTS

fuck, can you imagine a world where Bush Sr got a second term instead of us getting Clinton?

sheeeit tbh im not to familiar with the differences between the two. what year was that election

Stable diplomatic strongarming of the Emirates, kept Israel in line, correctly surmised that the Eastern Euro situation didn't need our attention
