Truthfully? I don't think that we would drop them as an ally even if it were to be proven in international court.
haven’t had any in awhile. Just clicked on an IG video and it lead to a bunch more. Angry, angry people. Some just screaming. Another holding a bullhorn in a guys face, literally in his face. Another one of a trans attacking a guy with a “Jesus loves u” sign. Best though is still “uncle Dan”, who had enough and tore thru a few aggressive protestors with haymakers. Another FAFO lesson.
Arming the Kurds seems like it could result in long term civil war and even additional foreign involvement.
The more I think about it, it seems like a disastrous idea, and this is from someone who thinks the Kurds deserve a state. I really hope the plan isn’t just to start a civil war and declare victory.
If we are attacking based on an imminent threat, and the "imminent threat" is Iran's response to Israel's forthcoming attack, and Israel controls whether or not Israel attacks, then how are we not in as soon as they decide to be?
Okay but elements of that movie made no sense. Someone goes back in time and cuts off your hand, and your hand just appears instantly but like none of the events between then and now change despite you not having a hand?! How can events in the past be simultaneous to the future?! Dogshit. The main plot apparatus of time travel was cool, but they ruined it with that silliness.
So i propose it is more of a matrix situation. It was already set that Neo would take the cookie, and now he has to define WHY he took the cookie post hoc. It was already predetermined that he would rebel against the machines, but the why was not predetermined. Turned out: love/[ussy pay]. So in this analogy, the US was going to do what Israel wanted and on their time table, but the WHY has yet to be decided even though it already happened.
Knowing Israel was likely going to strike and deciding how to protect U.S. forces isn’t the same thing as Israel forcing the U.S. into war, which is what I think you are trying to say. We still had options, move troops, pressure Israel not to attack, wait and respond if Iran retaliated, or strike first. The administration chose one of those options. That was still a U.S. decision, not something Israel controlled.
Exactly, like how we made nukes disappear in the past and the future simultaneously without affecting anything in between.
My nephew (a Marine) and his Unit (MEU) was deployed on Monday from his base in California to one of the Aircraft Carriers in the Middle East. Perhaps we are preparing to put boots on the ground.
