And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
We spend $20,000,000 to shoot down their $20,000 drone. They keep sending them and we keep flushing good money after bad for Israel. Iran knows EXACTLY what they are going in this.
The [Cost of Weapon "A"] vs [Cost of Weapon "B"] is part of the math of military vs military, but not the whole thing.
To use your numbers, you spend $20,000,000 against a $20,000 drone not because it's weapon vs weapon, but because the $20million is defending something worth 10 times as much. A SM-2 missile costs between $2.1 and $4 million each. You will gladly shoot those at $20k drones because if you don't, you risk losing a $30billion aircraft carrier.
This bloated tangerine threat in a necktie really thinks the entire goddamn world is supposed to jump because he stomped his foot and barked into a microphone. “Very bad future”? Bitch, the very bad future is letting a loud, ignorant bully with the emotional range of a clogged toilet keep treating global crisis like it’s a fucking episode of reality TV.
The Strait of Hormuz is not one of your bankrupt casinos, you orange gasbag. NATO is not your personal cleanup crew, and the world is not your daddy’s wallet. Every time this man opens his mouth, it’s the same tired formula: fear, threats, bullshit, and enough arrogance to choke a whale.
He doesn’t lead, he postures. He doesn’t strategize, he tantrums. He struts around like a dollar store Caesar covered in bronzer and grievance, acting like everyone else should risk lives, money, and global stability because his ego needs another handjob.
And let’s be real, the most dangerous thing about him is not that he’s strong. It’s that he’s stupid, loud, and surrounded by spineless ass-kissers who keep mistaking recklessness for strength. That’s how you end up with international policy sounding like a drunk uncle at last call threatening to fight the jukebox.
So no, Cheeto Christ, the world does not owe you obedience just because you know how to growl for a camera. Sit your saggy ass down, shut the fuck up, and let grown people handle geopolitics before your mouth writes another check humanity has to cash.
Jesus Christ, does this idiot ever stop trying to start a global shitstorm?
So the Bloated Cheese Puff wakes up, scrolls through whatever conspiracy meme his greasy thumbs land on, and suddenly decides he’s playing Battleship with the entire fucking planet.
“Deploy warships.”
Girl… you couldn’t deploy a coherent sentence if it came with instructions and a fucking map.
Let’s talk about the bullshit for a minute. The Strait of Hormuz is where about 20 percent of the world’s oil flows through every day. That’s not some little backyard kiddie pool, that’s the global economy’s gas tank. So when Iran starts rattling sabers about blocking oil, it’s serious geopolitical tension.
But what does our Cheeto-colored genius do?
Instead of diplomacy, strategy, or literally any adult behavior, he stomps around rattling sabers like a loudmouthed reality TV bully who thinks foreign policy is just another episode where he gets to yell “you’re fired.”
Now he’s out here telling allies to roll out warships like he’s the damn Admiral of keyboard commandos.
Let me explain something real slow for the MAGA crowd in the back who think foreign policy is a Fox News graphic.
You don’t just “send warships” like you’re ordering extra ranch at Buffalo Wild Wings. That’s how wars start, you dumb sons of bitches.
Real leaders de-escalate.
This clown escalates everything because chaos is the only language his tiny little ego speaks.
And here’s the part that makes my head spin.
The same people screaming about gas prices are cheering on the guy who’s literally poking the world’s biggest oil chokepoint with a fucking stick.
Congratulations, geniuses. That’s how you get $7 gas and a global crisis.
But don’t worry. When the economy tanks and the world starts sweating bullets, the Bloated Cheese Puff will blame immigrants, drag queens, windmills, or probably the fucking moon.
Because accountability is something this man dodges harder than a draft notice.
So let me say it clearly.
You don’t look tough starting shit with half the planet.
You look like a reckless idiot playing war games with real lives while the rest of us sit here wondering how the hell a man this stupid ended up anywhere near a nuclear code.
And to the MAGA crowd cheering this on like it’s the Super Bowl…
You’re not patriots.
You’re idiots clapping while a toddler drives the tank.
Typical liberal leftist progressive....superb replay of what he thinks is wrong with the situation; yet not able to present a better way of doing things.
Just because you DON'T like A doesn't mean you DO like B. Only a retard would have such a short view. I dislike ALL politicians, and NO, they are not necessary. Normal people have no use for them.
Let’s see: blasphemy first thing in the morning; false indignation over money spent while ignoring the epic amount Obama and Biden sent to Iran; “Cheeto”; specious reference to cowardice; obligatory Rothschilds reference; munitions omniscience provided …….. check! The only reference missing is the concern over safety for the troops (which lefties threaten to not fund and may have bee there but tl/dr).
SNIP Iran War Cost Estimate Update: $11.3 Billion at Day 6, $16.5 Billion at Day 12
SNIP $1.7 billion Barack Obama transferred $1.7 billion in cash to Iran in 2016 as part of a settlement for a failed pre-1979 arms deal. An initial $400 million was delivered by plane on January 17, 2016, coinciding with the release of American prisoners.
SNIP In September 2023, the Biden administration reached an agreement with Iran that resulted in the release of five American citizens detained in Iranian prisons. As part of this deal, the US issued waivers allowing international banks to transfer $6 billion of frozen Iranian funds from South Korea to a restricted account in Qatar.
As Forrest Gump might say "I'm not a smart man but I can do math"
Do some math Bobo and REMEMBER that every day MORE Billions are spent fighting and I've never seen Israel write AMERICA a check.
Maybe you could show me a link where Israel paid for our expenditures for their defense.
They seem to forget the long list of terrorism carried out by Iran and their proxies - Beiruit barracks, USS Cole, Kenyan embassy, Khobar Towers, Oct 7th Attack, 7/7 London attack, etc, etc (sadly). How many more reasons does one need?
For 8 years 1980-88, we financed Iraq in the Iran-Iraq war and sold them the precursors for chemical weapons that they used against Iran. Iran lost over 300,000 people. In 1953, we (CIA/MI6) engineered the overthrow of Mossadegh and installed the Shah because Mossadegh, a democratically elected leader, wanted to nationalize the country's oil and gas and stop paying the British 50% or more of the profits. I could go on, but for me that's enough reason to explain why they chant "death to America" Please learn some history, and stop pretending we're the victims here. And learn the difference between Shia and Sunni.
So in your strange, twisted mind, we "deserve it" and should just accept their reign of terror and financing of killing people around the world? Iran financing Hamas, Hezbollah, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Houthis is just something we should accept for any supposed past sins? Back away from your keyboard and go find your latest outrage flag to wave in the street.
Did America just sit there and take 47 years of Iranian abuses?
Did we not fight back? Did we not eliminate their navy in a unilateral attack called Operation Praying Mantis?
We lost somewhere in neighborhood of a thousand (depends on who you believe) military personnel in 47 years. That's bad but when I signed up, I knew that danger was part of the deal.
Snip In the U.S. military, an average of 30–50 personnel die each year in training accidents. Danger is part of our chosen lifestyle.
How many civilians has Trump bragged about killing and wounding in the past week? Or are they just vermin to be killed like animals that walk like a man?
The ONLY one that was expecting us to do anything about Iran is Israel. EVERYBODY else was ok minding their own business.
Iran has been yelling death to America for 50 years. There is a mouse in my barn that I'm sure wants me dead. I have not set the barn on fire yet because a mouse is upset with me.
There is a reason why Carter, Reagan, Bush Sr, Clinton, Bush Jr, Obama and Biden chose not to set the barn on fire. They all had the tools to do it. There is only one president stupid enough not to understand that setting the barn on fire will cost more than the mouse is worth (not to mention the mouse will likely survive the fire and be there when the barn is rebuilt).
K, so do another 5 minutes of research on how many brave Americans are dead because of Israel. Start with the USS Liberty. Screw both of those countries!
Much to the chagrin of the lovely Mrs. azlib, I can go toe-to-toe on blogs over political topics all day long. And at the end of that day, I am left with a growing list of undone chores and a wife who is grumbling at me.
For me, the appeal of this place is that politics has been largely absent.
enough reason to explain why they chant "death to America" Sufficient Reason exists,AbSoFrikkenLOOTley,, for them to hate us. That doesn't mean we should recuse ourselves from all things Iran.
That’s the mating call of the bull Vulcan gun. Translated, it means “I’m gonna f*ck something up!"
