"It's a kind of maritime terrorism that the entire world has an interest in seeing brought to a close."

I think that line rules because there's two options, all the rest of the world is geopolitically 2gay2act or alternatively they don't actually have an interest in it and both are pretty much equally funny

Somehow every American military operation has very smuglord names

[–] [email protected] 15 points 5 months ago

If it's not that it's a hamfisted pile of words chosen so they can have a slick acronym like Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism

[–] [email protected] 50 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (2 children)

did... they really call the operation "Prosperity Guardian"? As in "Prosperity Doctrine", or the idea that wealth signifies God's approval?

[–] [email protected] 35 points 5 months ago

They were also calling the thing where the part where they launch missiles at shit "Poseidon Archer"

Wow um sweetie the houthis are terrorists and they want to kill american soldiers, I wouldn't call this a "victory".

[–] [email protected] 38 points 5 months ago (3 children)

Did the Houthis ever even get to find out why America doesn't have free healthcare?

Funnel billions to the MIC and get themselves into a military quagmire they struggle to extricate themselves from, while failing their objectives?

Yeah I think they've had a pretty good lesson.

The best thing the US can do for itself is deliberately and gradually dismantle its empire because it is a paper tiger.

But unfortunately contradictions

I saw the hasan-ok-dude interview with Timhouthi Charlamet and now that I read this I can't shake the sensation that I'm reading about Luffy as he fights a yonko

What is stand in for the west here, would it be big mom. Big mom loves her treats.

spoilerI was thinking Kaido because he has a precedent for using others to do his dirty work with Doffy overseeing the SMILE production. So Israel can be Donflamingo, especially with their illegal occupation (though Dressrosa would be closer to Cuba pre-revolution, they are not part of this story). The one bankrolling Doffy would be Kaido.

is this real or a limited hangout to drum up support for the MIC and attacks on Ansarallah in particular? sort of like how we always 'lose' war games

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Could be, but it does seem like the appetite for fighting ansarallah is diminished
