This is what active military serving near Iran get to eat. Is he having door dash granny deliver it?
I’m reminded of people making fun of ‘The Art of War’ for having advice like “feed your troops”.
This is why ‘The Art of War’ was written, for complete morons with no understanding of reality but put in charge of an army.
One major failure of our species is that complete morons end up in charge of armies unacceptably often.
If it weren’t for the morons we wouldn’t even need them.
Ironic that the debate is about Iran while the real story is in the tray. US defense budget is bumped up to 1.5 Trillion and yet that’s the return on investment for the people actually doing the deployments.
Separately worth noting, between institutional investors and billionaire land grabs, the US has lost over 40 million acres of farmland to non-farming ownership in the last decade. These two things are connected: when capital extraction is the priority, everything else, soldiers, food supply, communities, gets the leftovers.
The best ways to turn military against you is a) don’t pay them, b) don’t feed them, and c) don’t give a damn about the survival of the soldiers.
I’m not so sure - the Republicans tend to treat veterans like absolute shit and yet, the military seems to have its share of conservatives that cannot stop humping the legs of Republicans.
somewhat embarrassing
no this is 100% mortification levels of embarrassment. you couldn’t make propaganda that effective if you tried.
Well they will just call it a liberal conspiracy, and 50% of Americans will believe them
Meanwhile the Pentagon is spending millions a month ordering lobster and steak.
And beauty stations.
Is this for real? The pentagon has like a trillion dollar budget and yet somehow can’t feed soldiers? Wtf is this clown shit ass corruption?
Wtf is this clown shit ass corruption?
That’s exactly what it is.
You elect clowns, you get a circus.
You’ve put the cart before the house.
Washington DC is a circus that attracts clowns
p.s. oops i meant horse
I think this is very correct but slightly off. I think its that clowns have no shame. People with shame are repelled by by power so over time DC has slowly filled with clowns as reasonable people slowly leave in shame.
Don’t look up how many audits it fails.
That’s easy. Every, the answer is every audit.
Yeah, how can the richest country in the world with the biggest military budget do this shit to the people they really depend on?
Just look at the private sector in contrast. This country mints more billionaires than anywhere else while treating workers AND customers like shit and-- oh wait.
Have you not seen how often Trump has disrespected the millitary?
It’s mind-boggling that he gets away with it, even while everyday Americans reflexively say “thank you for your service” any time they encounter a soldier or veteran.
Yeah I have. It’s bonkers, but it is also indicative of our culture. sadly. That’s why I made a joke comparing the government’s exploitation and mistreatment of military members with the rest of the economy’s exploitation and mistreatment of all the other normal people. In both cases, the people in power are choosing “number goes up a little bit faster than before” over “human life and well being” repeatedly.
They blew through their budget like crazy the first few weeks of the war.
They’re asking car dealerships if they can help manufacturer missiles.
Moneys is for Generals, not Grunts
“The US has the greatest military logistics in the world!”
US military logistics:
Seems like the kind of meal that starts a 30 hour laundry fire.
“laundry fire”, sure.
Yeah I think it was probably a missile strike, but who knows.
Netanyahu needs you to eat your goyslop.
😂
How do they not stock dried beans and rice? It’s cheap, it keeps, a little goes a long ways, easy to make at scale. I wonder how much the Pentagon paid for that “hamburger patty”
Art of s/deal/steal.
When the Fyre festival has better food options than your “warriors”, you suck ass at planning.
So, they sent their navy to the middle East with no plans on establishing or maintaining a supply line?
This is hilarious levels of incompetence.
It’s said that Germans in WWII knew they were in trouble when the US shipped cake from the US to the front lines. And we had an ice cream ship in the Pacific.
This news truly does not bode well for our superiority.
What superiority? America has been a paper tiger for decades.
