JFC, is that for real? Its certainly going to sideswipe some negative press about impeachment as well. |

Aye, pretty sure Bill Clinton managed to delay impeachment proceedings with some air strikes. I'm really looking forward to my 5 hour stopover in the middle east in 2 weeks.

Not satisfied with assassinating a senior government member of a country they're not formally at war with, the thick cunt is now sabre rattling on Twitter. The multiple draft dodger is now suddenly a military strategist. I actually feel sorry for the generals who have to take orders from the fucking imbecile. If America has another 7/11 he'll have no cunt to blame but himself.
Homer fucking Simpson is in the Whitehouse.

Trump said he called the assignation to stop a war not to start one. He then decides to send 3000+ more troops to Iraq. Followed up by saying he has targeted 52 Iranian targets if they retaliate. The Iraqis say fuck off out of our country. www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-50998065 1980 - 1988 Iran and Iraq were at war, bitter enemies. Seems they are united on one front now. |

Right. He's just announced to congress that he'll be doing whatever the fuck he likes. He did this through the medium of fucking Twitter. It's not funny any more. He's out of control.

I’m struggling to remember when he was ever in control.
Does he actually have ultimate power to overrule every other politician.

Next thing will be the UK and USA getting together and overthrowing the Iranian government in a coup d'état. Nah, it would never happen. British and USSR forces invaded neutral Iran in 1941 for their oil. After the war ended the UK left, but controlled oil production & profits via the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company. In late 1951, Iran's Parliament in a near unanimous vote approved the oil nationalization agreement. Iranian oil and profits for Iranian people was the call. Embargos led by Britain crippled Iran, until Churchill got in power and he decided to overthrow their government as he was worried the USSR might do it first. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1953_Iranian_coup_d%27%C3%A9tat?fbclid=IwAR0LPVjyp4FP3sJ3S4lou_6_0qvSy4ulv7Jb0AK03nPKNABzVw_awF5IwTU#Oil_nationalization_crisis |

I'm starting to wonder if all our human dramas are merely a "binge watch" on some exoplanet version of Netflix.

I'm starting to wonder if "we" are sliding towards a world dominated by far-right authoritarianism.
