"How does Rome have any relevance to Crimes in North America?"

Elitism and Slavery were staples of every civilization for thousands of years.

It's like saying that Fiji was founded on cannibalism.

"He's the President for crying out loud."

So was Biden. When he was little more than a walking corpse.

Do you like Trump, Bill? If so, could you do me a fave and explain why?

I'm trying hard to understand why 81% of Republicans still support Trump.

"Slavery and Elitism are the true basis of America."

???

Really?

Ever heard of Rome?

Jesus Christ.

"So does your Vietnam analogy mean you want Trump to finish this?"

Someone has to.

But it will be the next president. Trump will simply keep claiming how victorious he has been, until his term ends or he dies of old age.

He lost interest in OEF the minute he realized he couldn't claim any bragging rights from it.

"Iran has not gone "head-to-head" with the US. The US has the military capability to level Iran if it chose to fully unleash it."

Sure. We could nuke the shit out of Iran, but we could do that to any country.

The US could have, um succeeded, but that would first require a theory of victory. A set of objectives. From there, you would determine how to achieve those objectives. Normally, you do that by holding something your adversary values at risk. In Iran, I would say that would most likely be the coastal areas, ports, and oil production facilities.

That never happened. OEF has been the biggest strategic defeat in the history of the United States. I have no idea what objectives the DoW established prior to the conflict, but unless the objective was to burn through thousands of critical munitions, those objectives have not been achieved. And unless the US is willing to deploy a massive ground force, the Iranian victory will stand. More cruise missiles will not do anything to change Iran's decision calculus. They've already won.

"I think it's anti-Semitic to use a 3000 year-old religion to promote a 130 year-old ethnosupremacist fascist, genocidal ideology as part and parcel of that same 3000 year-old religion."

But it was OK for the Muslims to do it to promote a much, much younger religion?

Would you consider the Muslim countries that extirpated their Jewish communities ethnosupremacist, fascist, and genocidal as well?

"Hasan hates Israel for its genocide. He doesn't hate Jews."

Why does no one ever mention the extirpation of Jewish communities in nearly every Islamic country. Hell, Iran is liberal when it comes to their treatment of religious minorities.

You're joking, right?

You're calling Astronauts bimbos?

#8

He will not be attending the 9/11 ceremony in NYC because he wouldn't be allowed to speak.

"More proof you were never in the US military. Even though I agree with his sentiments, he'll get the OTH discharge he deserves."

Exactly.

It is not the role of active-duty military to call for the impeachment of a president. All politics aside.

On the other hand, this will land him a nice side-hustle as a guest speaker for the rest of his life.

The military guys need to stay quiet and be ready for when Trump does something really bad. Something that will make them think about their oath of office.
