Almost like there was no planning before Trump decided to attack.

But dogs and cats were being eaten, you see. And the other lady cackled too much.

(Happy to be downvoted by Trumpers. I've seen what you people upvote.)

If they had went for it during the uprising maybe the regime could have fallen? We'll never know.

But no, they waited 1-2 months or something until the regime could reload and people had gotten tired and went home to grieve for their dead friends and family. Then they started yolo bombing. Again.

The federal government spends $850 billion per year on the DoD. Why can't it find money in there to buy toiletries and spaghetti for the soldiers and families stationed overseas? Why should communities have to pitch in (beyond their contribution via taxes)?
smallerize•6h ago
This is why they totally need that $1.5 trillion they asked for this year.
kccqzy•5h ago
The article says,

> The money is mainly to pay for essentials and to provide bridge loans so families can pay basic living expenses while they wait for the government to reimburse them, which can take months, she said.

So it is clear that the DoD has money to do it. It just takes lots of bureaucracy to get the money out.

Man that is such a bummer. The Naval Support Activity (NSA) "base" is not a hardened military facility. I've never been to the one in Bahrain, but it's usually where you go to play ultimate frisbee, maybe some paintball if you are lucky, and other types of R&R. Usually have a Naval Exchange (NEX) which is like a really discounted 7-11 / gift shop / walmart (depending on where you are).

What do you mean by "that is such a bummer"?

That military base of the aggressors targeting civilians is being hit in return, and the sailors get to save their lives?

Yeah, such a tragedy that a military facilitiy is damaged in response to intentional killing of civilians.

Sorry but that's some....... surprising concern.

Schools getting blown up is also a bummer. Everything about this situation and maybe the world is a bummer.

As soon as we stop treating these as bummers, there is literally nothing stopping a cycle of destruction. There may not be anyways, I don't know but giving up on empathy entirely seems even more dangerous than being bad at it.

Oh this is fun. I grew up in Bahrain and I went to the fifth fleet base as a teenager to buy CDs because I was young and stupid and one of my closest friend is the son of a former chief-of-staff of said fleet.

So now donations are needed and US citizens still can't have daycare [0] and free health insurance because of a made-up war against a threat which does not exist.

World economy will be better off with the 1-2% fee ($2M per tanker) that Iran asks if USofA leaves middle east, compared to the Trump 100% price hike on oil.
