Well hopefully that changes in less than a year.
No, I did wait some time. There are well over 100 responses on this post and you have commented around 30 times. I didn’t use profanity. Not to mention I’ve seen what you say about gun control etc on other posts. So I know you’re pretty anti patriot. I find it extremely difficult to carry conversation with someone so anti American. But, you do you buddy.
Hey bud - it’s really easy to ignore people in your preferences. You won’t get any emails when they respond to your thread and you actually won’t physically see any of their posts. It’s a really good tool to use.
The War Powers Act is a congressional resolution designed to limit the U.S. president’s ability to initiate or escalate military actions abroad.
The resolution also sets down reporting requirements for the chief executive, including the responsibility to notify Congress within 48 hours whenever military forces are introduced “into hostilities or into situations where imminent involvement in hostilities is clearly indicated by the circumstances.”
And that was done!
And it appears your a democrat quoting the party mantra with ZERO proof:
I didn’t say anything about profanity, so I don’t know why you brought that up. Supporting firearms regulations is not anti American. Trump supports firearms regulations, is he anti American?
I’ll take “What are Hellfire Missiles” for a thousand Alex?"
I’ve been behind the US backing the creation of an independent Kurdistan since the Gulf War when I first met and worked with them.
If there’s a people left on earth that deserve a nation of their own and don’t have it yet, it’s the Kurds.
Screw Turkey, as important as Turkey is strategically since 92 they have been an even less reliable ally than the French when we really needed them to step up.
A letter the Secretary of Defense has disavowed as not in any way representing our position.
The fact it’s unsigned should have been your first clue.
‘improved nothing’? Made it all 50 times worse than it was, you mean. But they keep on doing it again and again, and the definition of ‘stupid’ is exactly that - you keep making the same mistake: if the Russians couldn’t tame the Afghans I’m fucking sure we can’t.
Yeah and that’s called “peace through strength”
We actually need to do more in taking out and leveling Iran’s military and nuclear abilities, getting out of the region when that is done & let them rot in their radicalism. JMO
No, it’s called Orwellian double speak.
War is Peace
Origin
This phrase has been used by George Orwell in the first chapter of his novel. “1984.” In the novel, this phrase is one of the slogans of the Party. These slogans are, “War is peace / freedom is slavery [and] ignorance is strength.” The Party believed that they could endlessly engage in a war to keep peace in the country. This slogan describes the reality of accepting two mutually opposing beliefs simultaneously as correct. This was also a major program of the Party to promote “double thinking.” Hence, it is a good example of double thinking, though contradictory, but the people of Oceania accepted both ideas as correct.
No. It is called “peace through strength”.
It isn’t surprising you don’t grasp the concept.
Oh I see, you want one last war and then we’ll get out of the region…
Well ok right, I’m not going to disagree with that. Maybe 38 times, but anyway, magnitudes worse than it was before we started.
LOL. No. Just leave them with such a bad taste in their mouths that they (and anyone else) shelves the idea when they consider America might get involved.
Well never mind that Gadaffi gave up his nuclear program and the lesson that sends to Iran, North Korea and anyone else in the US’s target. Toppling Saddam Hussein was the biggest present the US could have given to Iran. This is what I keep talking about with respect to consequences for US policy that I’m satisfied you’re never going to understand.
I’ve said that in my other comments.
