; our military needed its respect restored after years of servicemen wearing dresses and makeup, and our government flying the queer flag all over the world.

I’ll take a swing. It’s a nuanced attempt to remove the position, that we only can “defend” ourselves from aggressive attacks like Pearl Harbor.

Now, we proclaim our right to pre-empt a threat.

For 47 years, Iran has both verbally threatened us, and has aggressively sought harm to our people. To wait until the sky turns red is too late for me.

It’s still the Department of Defense, legally. Trump just ordered everyone in the Executive to call it the Department of War.

What happened to your mouse? Are you the type that waits to get hit, shot or bombed first before you respond?

We are no longer playing defense. The world needs to clearly understand war is horrible. We will have far less war when war is horrible, don't ya think?

What did you do with your mouse?

Because it sounds better.

You should go back to asking yourself questions and answering them completely in your head.

Fine. I concede the point. We aren’t at war and the US hasn’t been at war since 1945. No president since FDR has started a war. There’s no such thing as the Korean War, Vietnam War, Gulf War, Iraq War, Afghanistan War. We didn’t fight any wars in Syria or Lebanon.

I don’t know what this mouse you keep talking about is but I agree with the rest of your post.

Granted it’s better to have trans in military as well as authorities over the troops so they project as strongly diversified unit

Clearly, you can’t craft a retort without gross exaggeration, bordering on hysteria…

lol. I’m a big supporter of our war against Iran. It just bugs me that so many people are trying so hard to not call it a war simply so they can keep saying “I didn’t vote for new wars.” It’s fricking weird.

Whenever someone say "we" and no one else is around I will always ask "Do you have a mouse in your pocket"?

I’ve noticed that you do bring out the worst in people.

As Joe Biden would say, “DON’T”.

My bad. I will remember that whenever you use the word "we" you mean the United States.
