    This is so well played!

    Now Iran can attempt an attack almost openly on the US soil and many will believe it was an inside job. Well, that’s what happens when you have 0 credibility at home due to your compulsive need to say BS all the time.

      Cletus at home in Arkansas doesn’t care about justice, he just wants freedom fries and lifted trucks

      The chumps that voted for this weren’t smart enough to spot evil in 2024, and they aren’t now either

              That’s not a race.

              You however think brown people want to blow themselves up in the middle of crowds. Gullible idiot.

                It’s your race if you think that is meant to be read literally.

                You however think brown people want to blow themselves up in the middle of crowds. Gullible idiot.

                Quote anything that I’ve ever said that even implies that.

                The US is bombing Iran, and so expecting Iran to attack US targets is not racist, it is an accurate description of the world where Iran is attacking US targets.

      Only that the Trumpets do have pretty plausible deniability if there is no clear and blatant evidence it’s a false flag, as nobody would believe the dumbasses in the US Admin were competent enough to pull off a successful false flag.

    Trump started a war to protect himself and his epstein buddies. Nothing is off the table. Human life is cheap for these unfeeling creeps.

    Nobody does false flag attacks like the US. One must just assume that if something like that happens it was fully planned and deployed by the Burger admin, that’s always the most probable scenario.

    … The world has gone very wrong when this doesn’t even sound so unbelievable. I only see one issue:

    So far the US seems to have given up trying to make pretext for anything. Trump can do anything he wants and be worshipped for it.

      He still has to manufacture consent, and blaming the brown people for random bombings is the classic way. It’s not just unbelievable, it will happen.

      He’d do it if he wants to restart the draft for troops on the ground.

      That being said, I don’t think it would acrually work that well and could easily backfire within the US. At the very least he would need heavy congressional support.

    I find this claim I just read in a headline more credible than any of the claims released by the Epstein network because I feel like that’s pretty fucking obvious they’re either trying to provoke an attack or make a false flag look more believable.

    Just a friendly reminder that this happened a few weeks ago:

    European police agencies said on Friday that 22 people had been identified as being part of attacks involving a series of exploding parcels in ‌Europe in 2024, which the Russian military intelligence service was suspected of being behind…Explosions occurred in courier depots in Britain, Germany and Poland with security officials suggesting they were part of a test run for a Russian plot to trigger explosions on cargo flights to the United States.

    I honestly think this is part of the plan.

    If there’s a 9/11 style event before 2028, it will open the door for Donald to became a true dictator, and even better, the American people will line up behind him and support it. (As evidenced by Dubya getting reelected after all the dictator shit he did post-9/11.)

    You’re talking about America, the biggest terrorist/genocide state on earth. I don’t think they give a crap which flimsy excuse they need to use to cause terror on nations across the planet. They love war and terror, all to a degree

    I don’t like Trump or the war either but this is literally just propaganda. I trust Iran as much as I trust Trump. Not at all. Foreign authoritarians are not somehow more trustworthy than domestic ones. The phrase “the Epstein Network” is just an attempt to anchor this into domestic political controversies.

    Bluntly Trump doesn’t care about public opinion about this war enough to do this or the lead in to this war would have looked much more like Iraq

          Hi, have you seen our establishment recently?

          Making an arbitrary and artificial connection with another country is more of an insight into you then it is a useful observation.

          It’s like saying coal miners from West Virginia sound weirdly like coal miners from Turkmenistan - they both have black lung so it would be weird if they didn’t.
