U.S. Halts 82nd Airborne Paratrooper Drill to Keep Rapid-Deployment Force Ready Amid Iran Tensions - Sopuli

Amid tensions?! We bombed the country…
Yeah, and now they are being all tense about it. Like, they are kinda being uncool about us blowing apart a bunch of school girls for lulz.

TBF we’re not sure if it was Israel, USA, or Iran that blew up the school.

With US Allies refusing logistics support and UNESCO calling for investigation for war crimes, if it was Iran then it was strategically sound and they’re not well known for cherishing life of the citizens.

It also fits Israel’s MO, though.

It also fits the Department of War’s incompetence, though.

Trump blames Iran for strike that killed school girls - as US investigators point to American bomb

Michael Waltz, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, declined to fully endorse the president’s assertion that Iran had been to blame for the strike when asked Sunday

The Independent

I can understand the urge to assume everything Trump says is a lie, statistically you would be correct, but thats not a sound evidence based argument.

As much as Trump is scum of the earth who deserves to die, so was Ayatollah.

You want more sources showing us being the bad guy?

As much as Trump is scum of the earth who deserves to die, so was Ayatollah.

So you are for the war with Iran?

Reuters article

The officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive military matters, did not rule ​out the possibility that new evidence could emerge that absolves the U.S. of responsibility and points to another responsible party in the incident.

Do you not even read these? Its pretty hard to have a conversation if I’m putting in 10x the effort as you.

You really need to put more effort in, the world watches what the us is doing (war crimes) and the very idea that you want to build a higher ramp for proof is just silly. A school was bombed, by the us of a in a one two follow up fashion. The us does not deny this they just don’t want to say 100% it was for sure them on purpose, so rational minds the world over have figured out that the school in a nation the us is and was bombing was bombed by the us.

When everything we can see and read, and our fucking president says yes we will hit schools everything is fair game its showing we bombed it.

Based on you ignoring 3 different analysis hard to belive.

Especially after saying you were fine with the school getting bombed and okay war with Iran.

So 🤷

Analysis Suggests School Was Hit Amid U.S. Strikes on Iranian Naval Base

The Feb. 28 school strike in Minab, which killed dozens, including children, appears to have been part of an attack on an adjacent naval base in southern Iran, where officials said U.S. forces were operating.

The New York Times

Determining precisely what happened has been impeded by the lack of visible weapons fragments and the inability of outside reporters to reach the scene.

Look, when evidence comes out of USA responsibility, I will be the first to condemn them, to call for murder trials and sending them to the hague.

But we don’t have evidence and the constant confident assertion that the USA is responsible really peeves me.

We do have evidence and no you will not ever accept that it is “good” enough evidance.
What is the evidence?

The dead children in a warzone where the us is the aggressor (and israel has denied while the us has not). Oh and then your shitheal of a leader stated on video that they will continue to target schools and kids.

Next your going to try telling us that the Iranian forces bombed their own desalination plants.

If everything Trump said was true then we would be living in a very different timeline. It is not evidence.

To be clear, I’m heavily in support of congress passing a war powers resolution to end Trump’s bullshit, I am not defending the USA’s actions, but I demand we hold whoever is responsible accountable and part of that is ensuring we find out who it is first.

That said I think things are more nuanced than calling the USA an aggressor, given Iran’s involvement in the Gaza Genocide and their slaughtering of their own civilians after recent riots. While I don’t agree with Trump’s war, I do think we need to be supporting a rebellion against the dictatorship in Iran.

That is the leader of the nation in question, lies or not that is the timeline we live in. Its evidence, its a confession, it is a boast and what he says does matter.

They already caved on that, the states is a broken husk of a democratic nation.

The usa is 100% the aggressor here, not even debatable. There is nothing you can say (even less so in the case of Gaza) that is not going to be the geopolitical equivalent of “but look at what she was wearing”.

The recent votes were 47:53 and 210 to 216, along party lines. It’s not “caved on” it’s that the GOP are worthless assholes who should never be allowed in power.

The vote was passed, I (and everyone else in the real world) do not care about the stupid team bullshit in america.

What ever you think people around the world feel about the usa you are wrong, the opinion is at least twice as bad. No one cares that you voted for kodos, no one cares that the blue or red team did or did not do anything, we live in a world where if your nation starts bombing people in a foreign nation you are the aggressor.

And do you know what happens if the GOP is never allowed in power again? You have a one party state. So you have either a authoritarian government that does not follow the rule of law, or a one party state (but the blue team can feel smug). Grow up and stop pretending things are any type of normal, stop denying what is painfully clear to everyone not glazing the usa.

You’re confused, a War Powers Resolution has not passed because if it does pass it will take power AWAY from trump.
Oh like it matters, your being pedantic. The usa voted to let trump do whatever he wants.

I don’t disagree with your motivations, but pray tell what paradise do you hail from who’s gov hasn’t engaged in fuckery?

blaming the kids and the ones who worked their guts out to see someone else in office for the criminal’s actions seems petty.

but pray tell what paradise do you hail from who’s gov hasn’t engaged in fuckery?

Irreverent, my nation has done plenty bad but this is pure whataboutism.

blaming the kids and the ones who worked their guts out to see someone else in office for the criminal’s actions seems petty.

What? No really I can not parse this at all. What are your trying to say here? Is this about election workers?

just curious who’s innocent in this shitshow.
Not how Geo politics work. Innocence is irrelevant, however not being the one bombing/invading another nation is a great start.

They blew it up because it was a school for children of IRGC. They doubled tapped it hoping they would get some of the leaders.

You know how enraged they must be now?
