What is your source for point 2?

Independent journalist Jon Larsen first reported that The Military Religious Freedom Foundation has received a litany of complaints about religious ideology seeping into military orders since the U.S. and Israel began bombing Iran.

I'm no expert but a lot of news outlets including The Guardian are reporting this stuff.

SNOPES currently has the story marked as "Unrated"
Investigating claim US troops were told Iran war is for 'Armageddon,' return of Jesus

Mike Weinstein is a loser that has a repeated history of making shit up and is a clear hater of religion.

Those aren't multiple sources. Those are multiple outlets using the same source as the basis for their claims

 

[NDWarrior]

Well, what are you gonna do? They're reporting that the sources (soldiers) are being kept anonymous for fear of retribution so we'll have to see what might come out eventually.

This video is so close to getting it. We are putting Chinas industrial capacity in a stranglehold by stopping the flow of Venezuelan and Iranian oil, but the fact that this motherfucker thinks that our increased defense budget goes to Saudi Arabia is fucking laughable. Like there’s no way he’s that stupid

Again, I'm no expert, but according to data from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), the biggest importer of arms from the United States from 2015 to 2019 was Saudi Arabia. See https://www.statista.com/chart/12205/the-usas-biggest-arms-export-partners/

And then according to more recent SIPRI data covering transfers of major conventional weaponry by the US between 2020 and 2024 via the direct, government-government Foreign Military Sales (FMS) program, the largest importers of arms from the United States were Saudi Arabia, Ukraine, and Japan, accounting for significant shares of total US foreign military sales.

• Israel
  was the 11th largest recipient with a 3.0% share, though it saw a massive spike in military aid and new agreements following the October 2023 conflict.

So maybe "this motherfucker" is not "that stupid?" But what do I know?

Dothan ain't too bad actually. They have an army base. They train helicopter pilots there. Not the most exciting place but an easy drive to the Redneck Riviera (30A Florida)

I did a visit there once and was hit with a job offer (not an interview trip). The drive to Destin was the top selling point. They offered me 20k/kid/yr as a bonus to cover private school without me even mentioning the school situation. It was fascinating, but definitely better standard of living than Canada.

Now do this one

Now do this one

15 years in the time gap is a bit different than 15 seconds. Need to clean up your whataboutisms. War is good now!

It’s only a war when the other side is doing it. Hypocrites as usual.

But that’s exactly what you’re saying. As long as Jeffries changed his position from 15 years ago, it’s ok that Mullin changed his in 15 seconds. When does the peace start? When does the stock market start performing?
