Remember: You only frag your CO at the first chance you get if you won't get any better chances later. Work SMART not HARD

lol if they try to draft me I'm sorry I'm done and so are they

[–] Aradina@lemmy.ml 45 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If you learn to cook now, you can get a cooks position and put deadly mushrooms in the food.

Unless they outsource that to McDonalds, which they might

dawg i'm a chef

and also that would be a terrible way to do a murder without getting caught. But I mean I think I would just go in blastin' at that point, whenever I get a gun and it just feels right y'know

Can you get drafted into the airforce? Dropping bombs on your own military base would be a pretty good way to go

[–] BobDole@hexbear.net 33 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Judging by America’s war on Vietnam, no you’d have to volunteer and they don’t even let volunteer enlisted pukes fly planes.

[–] ButtBidet@hexbear.net 20 points 1 month ago (3 children)

To add to this, it seems like they only let super chuds fly the planes. I've never met someone in the airforce that I didn't hate immediately.

Its cool how she changed "never again" from referring to genocide to something about terrorists. Really really cool rhetoric right there

[–] TheModerateTankie@hexbear.net 70 points 1 month ago (1 children)

To defend the right of Israel to commit genocide.

Highly doubt it. Iran isn't just Iraq 2.0, they have a large military. Better missiles than the US, even! Doubt the navy wants to see Kaliburs introduce a carrier to the sea floor.

[–] jackmarxist@hexbear.net 55 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Iran should actually cook up some nukes just in case.

[–] operacion_ogro@hexbear.net 78 points 1 month ago (6 children)

Remembering that interview with a lib podcast where matt-jokerfied said something to the effect of "Iran has a moral imperative to obtain nukes" to deter US invasion and it stunlocked the hosts

[–] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 57 points 1 month ago

Libya didn't have nukes, it got fucked, north Korea has nukes it gets treated nicely, idk what you want Iran to take from that

[–] newacctidk@hexbear.net 31 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

It was this incredible interview with Yahoo News' podcast

https://youtu.be/leDn52N1nr0?t=252

It is a painful but funny listen, as well as the ep of chapo in which they listen back to and comment on the lib interviewers being insane. These are experienced even prolific lib journalists. The old guy broke a bunch of torture stories in the 2000s. But they are utterly cooked, they are more aghast at them insulting the west wing than the Iran nukes thing

Korean historian Stephen Gowans (sp?) essentially shared this take somewhat apologetically on RevLeft Radio at the end of the interview, saying that the DPRK having developed a substantial stock of nuclear arms is the best case scenario.

My only point of disagreement there is that he said as much gingerly instead of with his whole chest. I suppose standing on business isn't conducive to being tenured in a shithole western country though.

There were rumours flying around that they are in testing phases for the blast charges. Once they have these it's just a matter of adding the enriched part.

[–] AssortedBiscuits@hexbear.net 17 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Iran has a top 5-10 military in the world. It depends on how much you weigh being a nuclear power and whether you think Iran has nukes.

man i keep trying to convince my dad to move from iran but he refuses. he lives in some big ass house right next to the caspian sea in a tiny village. you'd think a place like that wouldn't be bothered by ameriKKKa but i still worry

[–] GaveUp@hexbear.net 67 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

If I lived in a big ass house next to a sea on my ancestral lands I wouldn't move either tbh

I hope he stays safe though 💜

That will be like the first target after hard military targets because it'll be the goal of future beachside settler communities

If the US absolutely wrecks itself fighting Iran instead of China communism will win.

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 36 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It will be devastating and horrible but I guess you're right.

If only we’d kept ridin with Biden 😢

[–] GeorgeZBush@hexbear.net 21 points 1 month ago

Iran is pretty vital in Belt and Road right? I'd imagine this is ultimately another step in efforts to wreck that project. Of course it'd be bipartisan.
