Just more propaganda, though I have no doubt that the U.S. military is filled with fascists with far too little inward criticism for the harm the U.S. has caused in the past and continues to cause to this day.

The US has been saying this about Iran for like 25 years.

I’m sure what they really said was closer to: “I just wanted to pay for college!!”

Main stream or street, it's the same game. From drug dealers and people willing to perform hits to legal soldiers and big pharma. Dog eat dog Mafia lifestyles.

Our culture is so fucked up. It's like they built something that revolves around evil. They taught us how to be a renewable resource instead of authentically live like human beings.

At this point, they are fascist soldiers. They get what they stayed for.

I would find a way to kill myself a second time out of embarrassment if I died for Trump.

so he's admitting that he killed them by ending the deal that was already in place when he entered office that prevented Iran from making nuclear weapons?

“I just wanted to pay for college!!”

And I guess what they really meant was:

"Yeah I'll kill brown people for money!"

Did Trump not just "allow" UAE to have nukes WITHOUT the 123 documents or whatever? Sorry I'm tired and can't think.

He's paraphrasing - their exact words were "we're going to die as part of an effort to distract the world from the fact that Trump raped children on Epstein's island."

But, ya know, close enough.

Fallen soldiers just wanted to get out of their dead town with no opportunities for them and have a stable interesting job. They never cared about Iran and never expected to die for a rapists ego. It’s a final insult to their memory and their grieving families for trump to lie about them.

Final insult? Pfffft.
There is no bottom of the barrel for that orange thing so I'm sure there's loads more insults and disrespect from the child rapist about all this.

Hell, the blob will probably start up a donation event to 'help the families of the fallen' when the war finally ends for the final final time finally...then pocket 99% of the cash.

Literal war criminal terrorists lol. Wanting to get out of your shit hole town isn't a good excuse to go overseas to continue the American tradition of killing brown children.

However given a century of military history, anyone signing up for US military service ought to expect high probability of dying in a very stupid war far away from home.

"Our client dictator is getting little too uppity" or one persons ego, stupid both.

...the fact that Trump raped children.

Historically...like, going way back...military service has always been one of the only paths of upward social mobility for the lower classes.

Post-9/11 GI Bill is no different, since education is often priced out of reach of the lower classes, and education is presented as a path of upward mobility, too.

I can't fault the racism, honestly. Not because I want to dismiss it, but because for 18-25 year old kids who haven't developed a full frontal lobe and have almost no experience or knowledge of the world outside their racist community (racism is more pronounced in poverty-stricken areas), you can't really expect much else.

Has he tried paying Iran to abandon enrichment, and sell uranium and centrifuges at a price they can't refuse? Current stage of war is about not letting Iran get $1/barrel of oil at $70 or less, to make oil $90 or more.
