21 year retired Marine here. It is time to bring our men and women home. Let the indigenous folks duke it out. The military industrial complex and our foreign policy on both sides of the aisle sucks.

Three US Army soldiers were killed, and twenty-five were wounded in an overnight drone attack on a US base in Jordan.

 

There have been over 158 attacks on US forces in Iraq, Syria, and Jordan since the Israel-Hamas war began.

 

According to the Department of Defense, about 70 US military personnel have been injured.

 

The injuries have all been classified as "minor" except for one soldier critically wounded on Christmas Day.

 

This is the first time US troops have been killed in the area since 2021.

So pulling out of Afganistan was a good idea, iyo, correct?

Trump, of course, was criticized for this by Dems.
 

The “retaliation” strike by Iran was in the works previous to taking out Soleimani.

Or how about Speaker Johnson? Iran is actively supporting aggression against Ukraine and Israel and MAGA blocks any efforts to help. 

 

That's weakness. Look in the mirror and look at the appeaser

President Brandon already told them “Don’t”. That should have been enough. Why aren’t they listening to him? He’s a good American president!

Well, Iran see his own Congress not supporting ANY foreign policy support, so they see the weakness that Congress is projecting 

 

This is all on MAGA

Another "absolute nonsense" claim.

The US president has remarkable and almost totally discretionary authority by law and precedent responding to anti US military actions, and that extends to preemptive actions to prevent them.

I can name scores of strikes that support that claim.

 

Biden is viewed as a clown, and unfortunately, he's going to have to use his powers to prove otherwise.

 

Suggesting this is a Congressional failure is ludicrous.

Congress is doing nothing while Iran aids in attacks on two places. The Congress is appeasing Iran

 

For you to say this is nonsense shows how shamelessly partisan you are. It's the obvious truth 

 

Oh, btw, Biden has already launched attacks, duh

Right?

Congressional appeasement hurts all of us. Iran attack Israel, what has Congress done? 

 

Iran helping Russia murder Ukrainians, what has congress done? cut aid

 

Appeasement by Congress and you sheep blame Biden 

 

Same with a border deal.

Why isn't Congress aiding Israel and Ukraine against Iranian aggression?

You are truly an #######.

Your repeated claims of partisanship on my part are preposterous.

 

There is nothing in my posts regarding military stuff that is pro party.

This is a product of your incredibly idiotic imagination.

 

Biden is an abject failure.

 Honestly, you are just not smart enough to see yourself for what you are

 

You lack self-awareness, which is a form of intelligence

Tell us what you really think.  Like anything that goes wrong under the watch of this current administration of unaccountable misfits and cretins.  Its Trump's fault and the Biden administration is infallible.  Am I right?

The more you post, the more goofy you get.

Bizarre judgement. Idiotic accusations. Refusal to acknowledge reality. Refusal to back up wacky claims. Ignorant lack of understanding of the US military or the Administration's options regarding that.

It goes on and on.

Something is lost in translation.

 

that moron posted a meme about service members being hurt in an IRAN strike, that was at the same time frame as us taking out that terrorist POS.

 

And why it never replied, as it again was caught spreading BS in here.

I believe it is his MO right? Something is seriously wrong with him. He says he served, but I have my doubts. If so, he probably flipped burgers at the chow hall.
