AJ is disgusting.
How so? AJ is just quoting CENTCOM here.
It doesn't have to copy the exact wording centcom use
Agreed, but I also don't think that it's wrong to directly quote someone. It doesn't necessarily reflect the author's opinion on the matter or make them "disgusting".
Jordan is not attacking Iran, Jordan is the defender between those two nations.
That's not centcom
That's a quote from another commenter in this thread, not from the AJ article. So how is this relevant?
killed in Jordan yesterday as “partner forces defended against Iranian ballistic missile and drone attacks"
Jordan is not attacking Iran, Jordan is the defender between those two nations. Furthermore, even an aggressor can defend against enemy attacks. That is simple English. Very odd you find it 'disgusting' to accurately describe defenders as defenders.
Jordan is hosting American bases, which are being used to attack Iran. Jordan has only to deny its territory and airspace to Amerikan and Israeli terrorists.
Also, Iran is not attacking Jordan. Iran is attacking American bases in Jordan.
The bases are used to attack iran. Jordan is the agressor and no the agressor has no right to defend itself in an illegal war
Iran is defending the Jordanien people from Israel, to which the army is capitulating, unlike Hisbollah. Very disingenuous Zionist framing, there.
Most people join the US military to get socialist benefits, calling random soldiers who have likely contributed nothing to the attacks in Iran and we're likely in the military before Trump declared war and are bound by law to stay in, thugs is a stupid take. Are there terrible people in the US military sure, but I'd argue that most of them are decent people trying to eek out a basic life and would prefer not to kill or be killed in combat.
No fuck them and fuck you. Iwould rather starve than assist in an illegal war. They are not thugs they are terrorists
Stop with the clean wheremacht nonsense. Stormtroopers getting mulched is good.
Most people join the US military to get socialist benefits
Most thugs join gangs to get benefits too. And most thugs would draw the line at bombing a school.
US military was an evil bunch of hooligans long before Trump. I have no repect for anyone who chooses to join there.
Epstein's body guards, pilots and crew all needed money to feed their families too.
The US Imperial military is itself a horrendous organization, filled with people that signed up to willingly participate in the war machine.
Editorializing headlines isn't a helpful practice.
While I'm guessing that this was an auto-repost from an .ml community, perhaps the auto-posting bot should not repost threads with adjusted headlines (or if it does, automatically restore the original headline)?
It's a .ml crosspost, but none of it is botted and I do fix them to proper it's just I've been fixing their headlines all day and ig I missed one, fixed!
