There are two such forces. One is the army of neanderthals that support Millwall Football Club, a benighted homunculoid race that exists beyond God's sight. The other is the The Khmer Rouge.

Clearly so. I forgot that all genocidal maniacs must, by necessity, be atheist. It's only the "Godless" ones who claim to "fight for God's cause".

(Except the Jews who slaughtered the Amalekites. They were clearly doing it for "God's cause". It says so in the sacred book of holy truth.)

The United States is morally finished. Well done Donald. The Republican Party should be disbanded for the good of humanity.

Does any single person in the world feel "safer" now that my stupid country has attacked Iran? Does anyone think we're preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons?

No need to do anything about the nuclear stuff right now, that program was obliterated last June, so they must be decades away from that problem. But luckily, there have been fewer Epstein headlines in the last couple of days. So ... maybe that's a good reason to blow up a school full of little girls?

You know there's normally a really good reason why you don't send your military to assassinate or kidnap the leaders of other governments. Well a few. Aside from the pure lack of civilisation, questions of jurisdiction and international law, and the deeply worrying decision to commit something approaching a war crime without even declaring a war, there's the precedent it sets. The implications.....

The last few people to try and shoot Trump have all been his own voters. Stupid ones, with dogshit weapons, and no idea how to use them. The next is likely to have a much better aim now that open season has been declared.

To be honest, if the militant nations of the world just concentrated on killing each other's political leadership instead of civilians, that might work out favorably for everyone at some point. Maybe.

Gary Childress. The United States is morally finished. What morals should we follow? Life is easy to hide behind someone willing to sacrifice their life so that you may have non-violence.

Go fuck off, Mr. "conflict" is not "war".

News flashes from my computer: the US is on "heightened alert" for terrorist attacks. Millions in stocks moved just before the attacks on Iran started.

Unbelievable. :(

So, there's nothing that can be done to unbomb the bombed targets. No way to change that. There's nothing to change the fact that my government fired first.

Now what?
