This image was sent to me from the field. These are messages US servicemen in the Persian Gulf have scribbled on the dust of an aircraft flap.

"Be a good guy and do what Israel tells you to"

"Operation Epstein Fury"

"Peace deal #64 incoming... ALL THIS FOR THE HOLY LAND"

I have no frame of reference, I can't compare it to the sentiments of US soldiers in previous conflicts. But I suspect these are new sentiments, or at least a new willingness to express them this openly and directly.

But as one serviceman told me: "What people in the media don't understand when they compare past conflicts to this one, is this operation has no morale behind it. That makes a world of difference to service members deployed to undesirable locations indefinitely."

Read that last part again: No morale. Deployed to undesirable locations INDEFINITELY.

My own conclusion: When a war has no morale behind it, winning means that you simply end it. There is no other "winning" in such an unjust war.

Were these messages written by 64 Nobel laureates?

There are posters here that are the complete opposite of that picture, are they not brainwashed?

"Israel is our greatest ally" is absolutely some programming

A disgruntled military is the most dangerous kind.

I was explicitly told by my drill sergeant that this was half the point of basic training.

You ever been deployed for a political back and forth game that appears feckless?

Trump’s losing one of his most reliable support groups.

This appears to be a KC-135 w/ the over-wing exit open. The main gear bogie has two axles. KC-135s can’t land on carriers.

The flaps aren’t usually left down after landing unless there was some reason to do so. Something else is going on here…

It’s also sitting on concrete. Carriers don’t have concrete decks. Others have suggested this is likely in a “boneyard” and is being stripped for parts by civilian workers, judging by the condition of the concrete & jet, meaning some rando probably put “Graveyard Graffiti” on it.

Propaganda doesn’t have to be good, you just need an audience that doesn’t know any better.

Jim Accosta is this you?

Because this is some Accosta level, unnamed sources Facebook worthy B.S. right here.

Here’s Mommy’s original email to the war department & Hegseth, note her anger, ALL CAPS. Some of you need to check your TDS, because it’s making you look foolish.

I agree one tweet/text/pic could be bogus, but those MSM and military outlets this week (and the USA Today article on food rations a few months ago) were based on multiple conversations with family members. If you want to say they're lying or exaggerating, that's fine.

Sorry, but that does not look like any US military aircraft I have seen.

You fell hook line and sinker for clear fake news. Propaganda. Perhaps you aren’t the one to criticize anyone for being owned by their “masters.” dumb frick.
