Translation: Get on the phone and back down immediately or the assets moved today will take care of the problem for you. Oh, and sanctions.

Freaks me out too. For many reasons, I dont want anyone there who doesnt want to be.

Imagine you call in a helicopter rescue and the pilot just steals the thing and flies off to some nearby neutral country in protest.

Well, despite being clear and obvious, Twitter isn't the officially sanctioned means of diplomatic communications between nations.

So, the US is going to OFFICIALLY tell Iran what Trump already tweeted: no more threats, no more poking will be tolerated. You have already crossed the threshold of committing an act of war against the US, and thus far we have shown great restraint and have not declared it. Your next decision will be your most important one, and may be your last.

So apparently soleimani's hand had its funeral today and there was a stampede at the Service that killed 32 people. How in the hell does that happen?

I'll try to find a link when I get to a PC.

It's probably more common than you think. Funerals for high profile people in that part of the world make NO Mardi Gras look like a local book club meeting.

You know those people that were there, and likely the ones who died, were not there voluntarily...and were likely innocent people who attended so as to avoid being killed or tortured by the regime. Pretty awful imo...

I get that you're making a joke, but do you understand that 90%+ of millennials are older than 25?

Fox - Stampede


Needed a fighter squadron flyover at minimum height and maximum sub-sonic speed to give them all a message without physical assault.

You don't know very much about how the drafted guys handled themselves during WWII, Korea, Vietnam, etc. huh?

Yeah, Gen Z will be the draftees for WW III. Boomers don't math good.
