I’m sure they are like the useless libs here - bumper sticker politics, zero depth, cucks when it is time to act, and preach with a shit resume. They want Iran to be disarmed and will reap the benefits but sit back and nit pick while the work gets done. Germany is batting zero on being right on anything. The UAE and Bahrain have been better allies.

Germany deployed troops to Afghanistan in support of the US and lost troops over their 20 year deployment.

Yes- they did. While under committing their defense spending and buying gas from Russia. Merkel was a joke.

So since the start of the russian invasion of Ukraine and the Iran stuff, I think the US needs a lower cost anti air defense system. The Patriot defense system isn't it.

I was told that all Muslims are the same? Shouldn’t they know that? I can’t for the life of me understand why they would bomb another Muslim’s hospital!!!!!

Well, Irish#1/Lepper love to bemoan about how all Muslims are a monolith, so I’m making a post about how brainless it is.

What you once again fail to comprehend is this. This is about people assimilating to the culture and laws of the country they migrate to. Muslims want to implement Sharia law and ignore the laws of the country. However, it appears many more share the same opinion. I'm seeing government officials in UK, Germany and another come out and speak against the Muslim communities not only unwilling to adapt to the culture and laws of the country, but wanting to instill their culture, laws and religion as the primary. Stopping traffic to pray in the street is okay? Using loudspeakers to chant is okay? Not sure why you think it's okay to do that and ignore the culture and laws of the country.

If you think it's just the extremist doing this, then there must be a lot of extremist. Why do they need to conduct marches and protests if they don't want to change the laws? Some of these are Muslims telling you what their intent it.

Do you need to check to see who has access to your account? I think maybe it’s the other Irish#1 who’s comfortable making Muslims out to be a monolith. I’m just hoping this Irish#1 isn’t the one who just runs when he’s caught, if you bump into him you gotta let him know that’s a terrible look.

We were talking about specific instances that were occurring when I posted that, but that's not casting all Muslims as the same. For being the proverbial smartest guy in the room, you sure have a hard time understanding unless something is written is a specific manner to meet your criteria.

BTW.......Didn't see your outrage when it was reported that Iran bombed Palestine.

I'm not convinced Iran's willy nilly counter isn't Israel influenced to shake the cage of UAE, Saudis, Bahrain, etc. Finite air defense capabilities are individually (likely) incapable of holding off Iran's assault. Spreading out the counter makes is much more likely the counter is ineffective. If Iran threw everything at the USS Ford carrier group we would have a big fucking problem on our hands. Since they slapped at the entire middle east, they rallied the region against them. Makes zero sense to me strategically, unless driven by Israel/US. Good business move creating demand for US defense.

Impeach Trump for war without Congressional approval, IMO. Third time's a charm. Too much of Congress is also Israel's lapdog so I won't hold my breath.

Who the heck takes over Iran? Cut the head of the snake off but I can't imagine after 50 years there are anything but snakes lined up to fill the void.
