    For any country currently in the USA’s crosshairs (ie Iran, Lebanon, Venezuela, Ecuador, etc…) and possibly soon (Cuba, Canada, Greenland…), we say “GOOD!”

    I hope these imperialist fucks get everything coming to them. And if you willingly go to “serve” in these unjust and illegal wars of aggression, I hope you get a fucking rocket up your ass.

      That might be one of the dumbest things I’ve read in a while…

      Edit: Ok, I can already see the downvotes coming, but seriously, think about what OP is saying. Openly hoping for WW3. Getting Russia involved against the US, while already weakened by their war on Ukraine, is just the opportunity that the US military meat grinder wants to justify action against Russia. You can condemn the actions of the US and Russia in the same sentence. You don’t have to choose a side here. Saying “I’m glad Russia is attacking the US” isn’t a great stance to have in the current climate. Makes you sound like a warmongering idiot, regardless of how much you dislike anyone involved.

        You are absolutely correct. Just because Trump is an asshole doesn’t make Russia or the Iranians good people and we should not celebrate them.

            “the Iranians” in the sense of “the iranian government / regime” and not “the iranian people”. That also applies to “the russians”

              I pointed out your very poor use of “the Iranians” because for the other example, you chose “Russia”, which is the name of the country and - while not optimal - more easily associated with the government. Whereas “the Iranians” is much more easily associated with “the Iranian people”.

              Please consider not using “the Russians” or “the Iranians” at all in such a context.

        Russia is not attacking the US, it’s just allegedly helping Iran. They have done similar thing in the past as well as more concrete support (say in Vietnam). The US has as well, most recently in Syria and Ukraine. WW3 is not going to erupt over this.
