Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Wednesday, July 22, 2026

Despite the fact that the US launched the billion dollar a day illegal war against Iran "at the request" of Israel, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich stated his country won't waste soldiers or money attacking Iran. "Israel's less visible role was "a blessing for Israelis" since it "reduces the risk of casualties and allows daily life to continue largely as normal, without midnight sirens, trips to bomb shelters, or major disruptions." So, American taxpayers and US Servicemembers should pay the price for defending Israel while they enjoy world class universal healthcare and Americans are stuck with the BBB, a terrible for-profit healthcare system, and a depleted treasury with sky-rocketing prices for fuel and food. Got it.

Dummkopf Trumpf posted this about his wasteful billion dollar a day war against Iran on behalf of Israel (who is now saving their manpower and funds, unlike the US):

"Afghanistan War: 20 years, 2,000 DEAD. Iraq War: 9 years, 4,600 DEAD. Vietnam War: 19 years and 5 months, 58,220 DEAD. Korean War: 3 years and 1 month, 36,574 DEAD. Venezuela War: 1 day, 0 DEAD. Iran Military Conflict: 4 months, 18 DEAD."

The demented altakaker is proud that this quagmire which is bankrupting the US economy has only killed 18 US Servicemembers so far, not counting the innocent civilians he murdered or the environmental catastrophe he caused in Iran.

"Christ, that was exhausting!" Old Yeller huffed, melting into his heavily upholstered chair. "How about two or four burgers and a couple of buckets of fries?" he brightened up. "People don't know this, but it's called a bouquet of fries ... but first ... golf!"
