Wow 😳

What the medieval fuck?

"He urged us to tell our troops that this was “all part of God’s divine plan” and he specifically referenced numerous citations out of the Book of Revelation referring to Armageddon and the imminent return of Jesus Christ. He said that “President Trump has been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon and mark his return to Earth”. He had a big grin on his face when he said all of this which made his message seem even more crazy."

@ReggieHere it's always helpful to focus on actions rather than words.

The commander is obviously a religious loon.

But the complainants are all imperial killers who signed up to a military whose business is using force around the world in support of the American Empire.

As usual, rather than resisting the imperial slaughter, these whiney killers are whining about some loon's hurty words.

#FRO, soldier.

I certainly can't disagree with that, but this kicks the abhorrent deep into the realms of a fanatical religious cult.

@ReggieHere Yes, but the USA has always been a fanatical religious cult. That's why it was able to genocide the Native Americans and replace them with shackled slaves and why it still believes in #ManifestDestiny.

This evil commander just said the quiet bit out loud.
