“I think it’s going to require a little bit less navel-gazing and a little less whining and being in fetal positions. And it’s going to require Democrats to just toughen up,” Obama said at the fundraiser

Well to be quite frank with you. The US didn’t ratify the literal protocols that talk about protecting victims of conflict. So in all legal senses, they didn’t by their own metric. So if you obey the legal system, which I personally don’t entirely embrace, no he didn’t at all by American legal definitions. Sorry.
Now do I think the military is shitty and does shit? Yes. They’re literally a monopoly on violence. If not them, then someone else would be. They’re dogs of the state. I would never work for a state in the realm of harming people I think it’s disgusting but the world isn’t mine to control and some people are out there to hurt you. So what do you do?
Now this drone shit is fuckin dumb because is Obama flying these drones himself and plotting out missions to target the most civilians and innocent he can? Is he googling a list of brown kids to blow p? No. He’s listening to his staff and generals and making decisions often with the idea of civilian lives in harms way. Don’t believe me?
I think it’s roughly 200,000 folks died in the middle east fighting since 2001 to 2023 when they left. That’s 20 years. 10k a year average but I’m sure it’s not steady or consistent. Afghanistan and Iraq I believe both have a population of 45million roughly so 80million. That’s 10k deaths a year per 80 million folks.
In Ukraine alone it’s estimated it’s estimated to be 70,000. In three years. Population 38million.
In Palestine it’s believed to be upwards of 58,000. In two years. Population 5million.
Those are the numbers. So what do you make of it?
You’re gonna say war shouldn’t happen. Yeah I fuckin agree but the truth is America is at war. And pulling out isn’t really the option you imagine it doesn’t just end there. They always really weren’t bombing like it is perceived, effort was made to reduce casualties on both sides and stability in the area was better with American presence.
It’s so easy to piss and shit and pick other people apart but I know you would’ve done a more shit job. Acting like Obama is the antichrist is fuckin goofy. It’s why we have Trump. It’s why we don’t get progressives because one shows the smallest sign of it and y’all act like they’re the devil if they make any errors. Y’all are eating Republican talking points.
Well, since we didn’t sign papers saying that bombing children and other innocent people was a bad thing, then I guess it all can be forgiven. I guess we’ll call it a “big oopsie woopsie” instead.
He literally bragged about how good he was at killing people. He knowingly picked targets, and knowingly approved the bombing of children. He sent soldiers to die on pointless missions that gained us nothing. You can keep telling us that it was actually a good thing all you want, but I think that tells more about your values than anything else.
I don’t know what Ukraine has do to with anything. Why are you bringing up irrelevant data?
The reason we have Trump, is because of the failures of Obama (and the Dems in general). If he had actually done the things that he campaigned on, people wouldn’t have given up on America. People were so desperate for “Hope” and “Change”, that after Obama openly abandoned those ideals, a large chunk of people ran to Trump.
If “bombing children and torturing innocent people is bad” are republican talking points, then yes, I admit that I’m buying into them. I’m not ashamed to agree that those things are evil, even if it is the Republicans that are saying it.
Roll my God damn eyes.
You’re dramatic as hell and it does not highlight the point you’re making. When you look at other wars the death toll are far higher because Obama is literally explicitly NOT doing what your foolish ass is saying.
Trump happened because a bunch of bozos like you ate up everything they pushed on Obama and now they know how to slam the news cycle and plant your brain how they want it. Good job buddy you have no idea how to tell reality from crap.
Obama didn’t do what he literally said that he did, and that we have verified video evidence that he did do?
I might believe your argument about Trump if you had any data for it, but all you seem to be able to say is “Nu-uh! My child-killer was actually a really cool guy!”
