Can we stop it with journalists’ insane use of commas in place of “and”?
If space is so precious, use an ampersand (&) for Christ’s sake.
Reading this sentence normally, it could seem like allies ARE joining the mission.
He can ask “Board of Peace” for help
“Bored of Peace”
haha didn’t think of that yet. The “thank you” from trump to Qatar, Bahrain, Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Jordan: quite a few of the members got fucked over very quickly with the generous gift of regional instability!
Thanks for saying it, I thought everyone forgot
Reads like a text chat between an incel and a woman on the internet.
Trump: You are stupid. You are ugly and fat. I’m so much better than you ever will be and also fuck all our agreements. Null and void. And you owe me $13.47 for that coffee I paid for.
Them: stares confused . Then watches their economies be negatively impacted by trump.
Trump: hey we are buddies right? Come help me bomb civilians.
Them: no thanks.
Trump: you are a stupid fat ugly bitch and I don’t need you anyway.
Trump (next day): how’s it going? . So when are you deploying your troops to help out at the straight?
Them: blocks trump
Yup. It’s really as simple as that. Trump is a sociopathic abuser, and the macro version of that is essentially the same as the micro.
I read this in the South Park style “Hey Satan!” way.
He’s the spoiled little rich kid who comes over to the sandbox while others are building a sand castle, proceeds to destroy the sand castle, then kicks his ball over the fence and wants everyone to come help him get his ball back.
MAGA elected the most little bitch ass spoiled rich kid on earth.
Israel forced him into it, there is a reason we are calling it Operation Epstein’s Fury. Because they have the tapes of the president, and ivy league aristocrats, fucking children.
Agreed
He wasn’t even that rich anymore. It was all theater. His hotels were in a sad state. His scams weren’t working anymore. It was all almost over.
The election saved his ass.
Now he’s rich, after grabbing anything he can get his hands on. Even in his first term he was quoted as saying that it was all “his money” now. All his debts are gone, all the banks folded. All the big companies as well, because they saw that they could “use” him to also get more money.
If he was a spoiled rich kid before, think what he is now. He sees himself as a god.
The only silver lining, and I really mean only, is that he’s so small intellectually that he’ll (hopefully) never see it through to it’s full potential.
As long as they keep the chimp away from the nukes, we should survive him, so that we can then be torn apart by climate change.
I mean, it’s kind of hard to argue with results. Fraud convictions and imminent sentencing turned into another chance to loot the public coffers because dumb-dumbs think the Gaza genocide wouldn’t also continue to happen under him.
Someone warn Spain and Egypt in case he gets confused about his straights.
Still too big for this fool.
wtf is this headline
One of those where just one use of the word “and” would’ve helped.
He’s been rejected by everybody he’s ever met. That’s probably why he’s a rapist and a predator.
“hey, you, fuck you! also, I’ll take your shit. also, come help me pls! but also, fuck you.” - tronald dump
Literally no official channel from the US has asked NATO. (Rage tweets are not official) The US was not attacked so it can’t invoke article 5. No one from NATO needs to help this American war adventurism.
No one from NATO needs to help this American war adventurism.
Further to that, they all recognize the folly of the whole thing and don’t want to get mired in the disaster that Trump has triggered.
He’s being"rejected" by a group that he has spent the last year shitting on?
Gee, what a surprise…
NATO’s job is to protect member states from Russian aggression. Trump has zero concept of history.
Trump’s Pentagon insisted on a go-it-alone approach to Iran at the outset. This wasn’t NATO’s choice it was Hegseth’s choice.
Even fucking Chimp-in-Chief Bush Jr had the decency to assemble the “Coalition of the Willing” in Iraq. Rubio couldn’t be bothered to get the fucking Turks and Saudis on board, and they’ve hated Iran since the Ottoman Empire fell.
Absolutely bonkers to talk about this as some kind of NATO failure to comply when the treaty was never invoked to begin with. Doubly so, when you consider how many NATO bases are still ultimately being used by US forces to get hardware into position.
The Ottomans were at war with Iran for like 3 or 4 centuries before Turkey was even formed. And they mostly lost.
It’s the same picture. Just ask anyone in Istanbul
“Guys! GUYS! You really depend on the oil that flows through the Strait so come and help me open it!”
“But your actions closed it in the first place.”
“OMG I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU WON’T HELP! :`(”
Fuck me, this is what international politics and diplomacy have become.
“We will protect them, but they will do nothing for us, in particular, in a time of need.”
I thought the US already destroyed 100% of the Iranian military? If I were an ally, it would sound to me like the help is not needed as there is no military remaining to fight.
Like how the US protected Ukraine when it gave up its nukes, trusting that the West and NATO would protect them if Russia decided to invade?
I know, that invasion began between Orange Man’s two terms, but still. The US in general needs to STFU about how it supposedly protects the world, they dropped the ball bigtime there.
Once again the only country that invoked article 5 ever, was the USA
False.
according to him a number can be reduced by up to 1500%, so if they’ve done 100%, they’re only 6.67% done
