have you noticed how the supporters of this guy, and the general indirect supporters of Iran in all the Epic Fury threads never address this when posed. They just move on and pretend you didn't say it.


Because it’s a trite talking point. They were the same before Trump was elected and re-elected. Attempting to take out the regime is a change in policy. Maybe a needed change, maybe not, but you can’t just ignore that it was a change, which is what the talking point is attempting to do.

Trump drained another DC swamp rat. This is a good thing despite this boards complaining.

Is there anything Trump could do or say that would cause you to question or oppose him?

I disagree. And judging by the bandwidth given to how rotten our institutions are and how we need people to speak up, Trump loyalists used to agree with me.

I guess people think it's ok if they go public and complain about the FBI, the CIA, Biden, insider trading or anything else, you just can't publicly disagree with Trump. I think those people are wrong.

Agree. I’m anti-interventionist, but I’ve also read Thucydides cover to cover more times than I can count—and it’s just as true today as it was thousands of years ago.

I’m holding off on forming a firm opinion until this plays out.

If Trump pulls off what I think he’s attempting, it could mark one of the most significant geopolitical shifts since the end of World War I—potentially putting the U.S. in its strongest global position since that era.

If he doesn’t… it’s hard to predict what we’re looking at.

For now, I’m taking a wait-and-see approach. It’s really all you can do.

Yeah, you're the real profession here, correct? Not the guy who spent his career in SOF then on the ground as a CIA direct action asset.

Dont blame him. With how bad this war is going with the public i can foresee a false flag major terrorist attack coming to our nation very soon to get the public and media back on board for an invasion. I wouldnt want to be him getting thrown under the bus either.

poor Fats

you got one guy who's broken ranks and he can't even do it in a professional manner.

You didn't know or care who this guy was until 5 minutes ago. If somebody would have posted something about him a week ago you'd be the first to call him a Trumpkin.

Now he's you're hero.

You're way too easy to see through Fats.

Do you NOT keep up with developments in the War with Iran? Following President Trump's decision to go after the Mullahs in Iran, did you NOT read where Iran said "We failed to assassinate you the first time - we do not intend to fail the next time". Connect the dots and take the Iranian terrorist at their word.

.......and please try to keep up.

Exposing spying on citizens is one thing... government fraud and waste.. slush fund for sexual deviants... those are whistleblower topics, they deal with actual wrongs.

Disagreeing on policy is just that- disagreeing.

At the heart of his letter, he simply, if vehemently, disagrees with Trump's policy concerning Israel and Iran. That is NOT whistleblowing.

Unless... unless the whistle blown is that Israel controls the upper levers of our government apparatus. If that's the case, he better well prove it. Not throw word bombs on his way out the door.

Why are such a condescending a-hole? Do you not think that this was in reference to Asif Merchant? You know, the guy actually tied to Iranian sources.

You retarded twat.

I know you love it, especially when you can not argue the fact it conveys.

poor Fats. Relegated to grammar patrol when I point out the obvious fact that you don't give a rat's arse about this guy except to score political points.

TDS is a hell of a disease Fats.
