"Reminds me of what Trump does to his Base.

I like to think of myself as the dog in that GIF. Looking on with mild interest, as opposed to the other cat who seems more concerned with the state of affairs.

^^^ The difference is?

Between stupid people and the hateful/willfully ignorant?

Stupidity refers to a lack of intelligence or poor decision-making despite having access to information, while hatefulness involves strong negative feelings towards others, often based on prejudice. Willful ignorance is the deliberate choice to remain uninformed or avoid knowledge, which can lead to harmful beliefs and actions, similar to the consequences of stupidity and hatefulness.

The best thing about Cinnamon Roll was that she was bisexual. The fact that she has poor judgment is icing on the cake. (wonder if that's gonna get bleeped by our overly sensitive bleeperer)

And 48% of America was stupid enough to put him back into power.

Stupid? Or hateful and willfully ignorant?

Also, Trump almost eked out a majority, and still 1.5% more than Kamala (49.8% vs. 48.3%).

"Trump Blames Recent Attacks on 'genetics' of Assailants"

He speaks the truth! A colored person (orange!) orchestrated the first-ever attack on our Capitol to stop the peaceful transition of power in our nation's history.

"Heritage Foundation reports on America's family crisis'"

Laments the people who support the adjudicated rapist who has five children from three different women, intruded into dressing rooms with naked underage teen girls, cheated on his pregnant mail order bride with a corn star, and Epsteined some kids.

Its perfectly clear you two still have no idea whats going on.

Good news!

OneIronTurd, the paid Russian troll who refuses to criticize anything Russia or China does (don't bite the hand that feeds you, amirite?!) and claimed with a straight face last week that Trump launched the Iran war to help Ukraine (right before Trump lifted oil sanctions on Russia, handing Putin billions to pay for the Ukraine war), thinks he knows what's going on. But he refuses to tell us. Because, reasons.

"Trump Says Iran Ready to End War"

Well, if the man with 34 felony fraud convictions said so, it must be true.

It's very clear the US won't do anything to defend Taiwan from China. They should have had their own nuclear deterrent force.

"Iranians have been helping Israel target street level security forces
Posted by rf4b"

Interesting story. A little payback for the 32,000 Iranian civilians Ayatollah Asawhollah's wacko zealots slaughtered in January.

The Israeli military is waging an intense campaign of tracking and destroying checkpoints and other locations manned by the feared Iranian regime's Basij militia in Tehran, according to the IDF, multiple Israeli media outlets and observations of Euronews' Persian service of social media activity out of Iran.

The Israeli objective appears to be destroying and demoralising the Basij units " the Iranian Revolutionary Guard's (IRGC) paramilitary militia " and in general to degrade the Iranian regime's internal security apparatus used for repression.

In an address to the nation on Thursday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Israel is "delivering crushing blows to the Revolutionary Guards and the Basij, and we have only just begun."

In a striking development, multiple social media accounts observed by Euronews' Persian team claim that ordinary Iranian citizens film Basij checkpoints or military hideouts, posting the videos on social media as a form of opposition after thousands of Iranian protesters were killed and injured by the militia and other security forces during the violent crackdown on protests preceding the war.

"Trump Says U.S. May Keep Bombing Just For Fun'"

Wheee!

How about the context where the imbecile dropping the aerial bombs say's there isn't a war?
#27 | Posted by REDIAL

No idea since I haven't looked into it. But given the number of times our soldiers have killed and maimed during "not wars" with zero criminal or civil ramifications, I'm going to hazard "not a WMD."

Ok... a handheld gunpowder bomb with some sheet metal screws stuck to it is a WMD, but a 2,000 pound aerial bomb isn't. Good to know.
#21 | Posted by REDIAL

Depending on the context, yes. Not really that complicated, despite your best attempts to misunderstand.

Civilians can be punished under our laws for using devices that combatants in armed combat (on either side) will not be punished for using.

So we agree they are using WMDs in Iran. Good.
#18 | Posted by REDIAL

The weapons being used would be WMD under the USC criminal (civilian) code cited in #19. Those aren't the same definitions used for armed conflict, though. You can read more about it and the varying meanings here:

You don't think firing a mortar at someone invading your nation to slaughter your people is different from chucking that same mortar into a civilian crowd gathered to watch a marathon?

Well I certainly won't be able to convince you otherwise.

But as I said, there is no shortage of people taking issue with US/Israel's use of WMDs. But almost no report on these Muslims who did so at Gracie Mansion. Which was BellRinger's point.

Yet the US and Israel are using WMDs every day on Iran and no one says anything.
#12 | Posted by REDIAL

Warfare is a different context (with different rules than what the terrorists here did, similar to the Muslim terrorist Boston Marathon bombers using pressure cookers to kill a few and and maim over 250). But even if they were the same guidelines, I'm pretty sure I hear plenty of people saying much regarding US/Israel use of WMDs.

Too bad many of the complainers didn't put those entirely predictable concerns into action a little over a year a ago when it actually would have mattered during the election.

Jill Stein 2028!

And a photograph of the grenade to help TruthHurts understand why a grenade is a WMD. Those nuts and bolts are shrapnel, intended to kill many.

And BellRinger is spot on with the title: "Why do media consistently obfuscate terrorist attacks." The media made it sound like the attack was against Muslims, even though it was perpetrated by Muslims against others.

Should probably skip straight to the source and ask Putin.

PS - Orban, Hungary's Putin-friendly PM, has been the roadblock preventing NATO and EU membership for Ukraine.

Luckily Putin has Trump in the White House now to pick up the pro-Russia slack.

I think bumblebees are my favorite insect.
