    Back then we weren’t committed to our fascism as deeply, surely this time our conviction of faith will convince God to illuminate the path forward to bombing Iran the best we absolutely can!

      Oh, I’m sure we bombed the snot out of not-iran during the exercise. But the lesson is that technology advantage doesn’t win wars. (Didn’t win Vietnam, Iraq or Afghanistan either. Also didn’t help Russia win Ukraine or Afghanistan.)

          Oh please. I wouldn’t believe this administration cumulatively attended 10 regular Sunday church services in the past 20 years.

          It ain’t got nothing to do with God or any religion. They are as religious as Russia. It’s about creating a global oligarchy with themselves at the top.

            Only because God told them that was their entitlement!

              No. For gawd sakes. They ain’t talking to God, y’all.

              They are looking at what Putin and the Russian oligarchs have, and looking at what the Saudis and the Oil Oligarchs have, and saying “I want that!”

                Lol. You’re missing the literal dripping sarcasm. No one believes they’re talking to God. It’s just what they tell their followers who are too stupid to believe anything but the propaganda they’re spoon-fed about their holy war.
