    after trump assassinated that iranian general Soleimani years ago, when some cleric said Iran would struggle to strike back at the US....

    "In your opinion, if anyone around the world wants to take their revenge on the assassination of Soleimani and intends to do it proportionately in the way they suggest — that we take one of theirs now that they've got one of ours — who should we consider to take out in the context of America?

    "Think about it. Are we supposed to take out Spider-Man and Sponge Bob? They don't have any heroes. We have a country in front of us with a large population and a large landmass, but it doesn't have any heroes. All of their heroes are cartoon characters — they're all fictional "

    i have thought about that at least once a week since that was said back in early january of 2020. i was literally just telling someone about that statement like 4 days ago.

      The latest TrueAnon on the Ukrainian Foreign Legion strongly suggested that we're sending JSOC units up to the front. We may have even lost a division or two. Hard to say since... you know... special forces undercover hush hush.

      So many headlines like this almost seem to be a reflection of what we've already decided to do. "Wouldn't it be cool if we INVADED UKRAINE! Oh, we did, already? Well, I bet you think that's pretty cool."

      Maybe we can defeat Russia if all redditors call Russia 'North Ukraine'

    I'm a little surprised it took them this long to say, "NATO is just like the Avengers!"

    By "Avengers Moment" do they mean WW3 and NATO invasion of Russia by any chance? I haven't seen any action figure movies.
