Angry Three American servicemembers killed, 34 wounded in Jordan drone attack

Why were they there in the first place? They shouldn't be in Jordan, on the Syrian border in the first place. They're being used as bait, trying to justify MOAR war.

Remember the Cole.

Haven't seen it reported yet, but let me spoiler alert for y'all. It will be a bunch of guys from middle America, NOT the sons of our Congressmen or coastal elites, good guys, and people who didn't deserve to end up dead or ****ed up in some Moslem shithole.



Reagan was smart enough to order our troops out of Lebanon after the Beirut attack. Trump was smart enough to order our troops out of Syria (although Milley, et al, lied about actually doing it, apparently). And anyone with a pulse should have been smart enough not to put US soldiers in Yemen after the USS Cole bombing.

Our troops should be here at home, defending our border, repelling the invasion happening HERE in the US.

We have passed on multiple opportunities to eliminate the global antagonists, but much like cancer, there's no money in the cure.

Let us test this wonderful thing called MOAB (Mother Of All Bombs). Trump did and it kept the asshats quiet for a long time.

Remember the Cole.
I remember the Cole, she was our sister ship. I knew some of the crew on her. The Top Snipe (Senior Enlisted in Engineering) was on my last assignment on Afloat Training Team before I retired.
A few months before the Cole was attacked, our ship had stopped in Yemen for fuel. There was a small boat making runs in the harbor, low to the water and looked like it was going to sink. Come to find out they were making test run attacks towards our ship in preparation. I bet if they had not been so overloaded the Cole would have been my ship.
