The Long Road Out

  WWII—the entire north against evil Germany, Japan---and strangely Finland, but that's another story…Russia was our ally though we dumped them minutes after Germany capitulated.    WWIII—the entire north against the evil US and Israel. And hey, Finland's against us too, just for the record. Russia is laughing its head off at us this time around.  The US benefitted by entering the war late and selling weapons to everyone else.   Quick:  name one benefit you, as a US citizen, will gain because of WWIII.  What did you gain from VietNam?  What did you gain from Iraq I or Iraq II?  This time, we're using our weapons on defenseless humans.  There's no profiteering on that.  There's mountains of debt that you'll be paying off for the rest of your lives.  No one is sending checks or support to the evil nations this time around.    Quick:  Name which countries the average Iranian hates more than...

Here you go---the real hostile, violent, childish, fundamentalist evil empire:  us.   https://www.thenation.com/article/world/iran-war-trump-neoconservativism/?utm_source=Sailthru&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Daily%203.19.2026&utm_term=daily

Don't dignify this collosal mistake as a war.  It's an invasion.   How can you tell?   Quick: distinguish this US/Israeli shithouse from Putin in the Ukraine. Quick: did a single Iranian citizen ask the US and Israeli governments to blow up Tehran and kill their families to save them from the Ayotollah? If so—of the civilians who are still alive, where's the opposition?  Where's the underground raising up, like the heroic Poles in WWII?  Where are all the secret Jews and Christians in Tehran who are finally free of this imagined yoke? Quick: is there a single country besides perhaps the Saudis who thinks endangering the globe this carelessly is a good idea?  Including 100% of NATO and 99% of the UN members?  Quick: what's the purpose?  At least with the Anschluss there was a clear desire to move borders and crush governments and kill unwanted elements.  WTF is Trump doing. Quick: can a religious war actually be a war?  ...

On one side, holy bible thumpers who think the Crusades are tattoo-worthy and Revelation is readable.   On the same side, those clutching the Torah's misogyny and invitation to homicidal violence.   On the other side, clerical fundamentalists.   I support all of the non-believers, the atheists, the humanists, the citizens, the intellects, my neighbors.   f you're buried under rubble in Tehran or Beirut, if you're disgusted by US born-again idiocy, or if you'd just like to get to your favorite restaurant in Haifa without dying.   You are my kin.  Please survive this further attempt to murder us.  As if we needed further evidence that religion is brainwashing (and child abuse).
