Donald Trump has threatened that Iran will be “blown off the face of the earth” if it attacks US vessels trying to reopen a route through the strait of Hormuz.

The US launched an operation on Monday to help hundreds of ships trapped with their crews in the Gulf, dragging the region back to the brink of full-scale war.

Over 800 ships and roughly 20,000 crew members remain stranded in the region.

    Americans have no such self-awareness. The ones that do do everything in their power to leave the country or isolate themselves in communes and imply don’t participate.

      Tempting, to just go inna woods and run from society, but from what I’ve seen the ones that have self awareness are actually flooding the streets across the country with protests and getting teargassed and stuff.

      I get that the internet can be a collective jar to sigh and vent into but let’s not discount the sacrifices many are making because they believe tomorrow can be better.
