OSINTtechnical published footage of the massive deployment of Patriot missiles.

The Iran War has done its job for Trump and his daddy Putin perfectly! Whoops! No more interceptors!

    60 patriot missiles total cost is $240 million. Iran cost of missiles was probably under $1 million.

    This is a demonstration of how pathetic, corrupt and weak USA’s military strategy has been. We spend money on fancy weapons, make oligarchs rich, and just bankrupt the country while losing every war 😂

        I’m always curious when I see statements like this how exactly Black people and Native Americans are deserving of any of this…

                I took your comment to mean that the US deserves to have its money wasted. So I’m asking what did Native Americans and Black people do to deserve their money being wasted on American imperialism?

          There’s a difference between the residents/citizens of a country and the country itself. If there weren’t, no country could ever deserve an attack, because every country has babies.

          Edit: I guess the Holy See probably doesn’t have many babies, but it’d also be basically impossible to attack them and not Italy

              I think countries which colonize or repeatedly, unprovokedly attack other nations, or which commit genocide against or enslave people (internationally or domestically) deserve to be attacked. I absolutely get it if you don’t though, and I’m not trying to convince you.

                I think that more thought needs to be put into it when you are talking about a country that was originally invaded by Europe.

                  If you are talking about US then native Americans are the ones who were invaded. They are a part of the current country but it is the Europeans who are the country now making more than 50% of the population. And the colonisers deserve every pain they can get.

                  That’s fair. I’ve done my own thinking about this, and I’m not the poster who said the US deserves to be bombed. This conversation doesn’t lend itself to an online platform though, as only one perspective is actually legal for me to espouse.
