Anyone know of any longer wars, other than those from five hundred years ago?

Quote

On 7 October 2001, the U.S. officially launched military operations in Afghanistan. Airstrikes were reported in Kabul, at the airport, at Kandahar (home of Mullah Omar), and in the city of Jalalabad

coming on 16 years of bombing a third world ruined country full of paupers.

The original explanation was to get Bin Laden. Then, it changed to getting the Taliban.

Who knows what the hell it is now.

Just call it a "Police action"

Holy ****. Is it a bluff? Is the Pyongyang motherfucker crazy enough to call it?

The fat little nutcase boy dictator doesn't have nuclear weapons yet. But he does have chemical weapons & may have the capabilities to strike Japan & Western North America. If he does test a nuclear device it'll be the end of him. Even China & Russia won't help him.

CNN had an interesting article about North Korea. Apparently the issue isn't their military technology because it's mostly old. But they have a massive stockpile of weapons. So if they wanted to go nuts it would be devastating to someone probably South Korea and Japan. Or whomever.  

If the US strikes they'd really have to strike fully and completely and knock out their ability to respond.  

As somebody said, Trump has found the gun cabinet.

He's  deranged, and has no idea what he's playing with.

Americans are standing back and watching while this insanity takes place.

Shows  you how corrupt and worn out their system has become.

Think trump is letting the people he put in charge make the decisions and he just trusts them. Like a good business man he trusts the people he put in charge 

But just who's in charge?

Pence isn't in charge. Who is in charge depends on who has Trump's ear that day.

Honestly one of the silliest things I've ever seen.  Who will define "mentally ill"?

Yeah I guess his idea is that a group of former President's and VP's would decide if a sitting President is too crazy for the job.  So Obama, Clinton, Jimmy and two Bush's would decide if Trump needs to go?  Silly.

The point I thought was an interesting one was the idea that the current method within the 25th Amendment that allows for the VP and majority of cabinet to remove a President isnt reasonable since a rogue President could fire the Cabinet and/or the individual cabinet members would feel intimated about crossing the boss.

But I think thats sort of the point.  By the time you get to a scenario where the VP is going to other members of Cabinet to gauge interest in removing the President, there is probably some darn good reasons.  And in that scenario, if the President attempted to thwart it by creating his own version of the Saturday Night Massacre and firing his entire cabinet, Im pretty sure the VP wouldnt have much trouble getting both houses on board to remove him.

The deal Tillerson negotiated.

This is what happens when the UN took the easy way out in 1953. Sign a truce, forget about the war but leave the mess for future generations to deal with. Just like spend happy politicians. Dump all debt on future generations. These same politicians don't  care what happens 30 years from now? Let our grandchildren & their grandchildren pay it off. Now, nearly 65 years later we're dealing with the cluster#### that is North Korea.

Insight into Trump. He doesn't even hear himself speak. It's all show. Can't keep his BS straight. 

 

Has Bannon been neutered? One can only hope.
