Correct, Air Force One gets the air space cleared when they come to commercial airports.

So? Losing a major oil supply hurts our economy regardless of how much we have because it hurts the international trade routes. It raises the cost of exports and imports.

Liberating Kuwait was completely justified, the invasion is dubious at best, but that doesn't change the fact that Saddam was an enemy of the US. So is Xi, but that doesn't mean we invade mainland China.

Don't forget, when asking WWJD making a whip, flipping some tables, and driving people out with said whip isn't out of the question.

He was trying to organize oil-rich countries into a trading block against us, and was attempting to make everyone buy oil in his own currency instead of the dollar.

Yeah, that's going to hurt our economy and that makes him our enemy, doesn't matter why he was doing what he was doing.

Edit: how could I forget that he invaded Kuwait which would have completely cut off our oil supply. Don't buy the revisionist bullshit that Saddam was minding his own business.

Sadam wanted to do shit that would hurt our economy. That makes him our enemy. Was it worth invading Iraq over? Maybe, maybe not, but he was definitely opposed to us.

It's time for Betty to bounce again.

We didn't sign that part of the Geneva Suggestion anyway.

The thing is, the ones on our side won't be military if/when it kicks off, they'll desert. Won't stop the rest.

Some guy no one knows is pretending to be a woman since his small amount of fame has faded, which is somehow unique enough to require a movie.

Even the feds say the personalities didn't know where the money was coming from.

So, his take just keeps getting more braindead.

A paid Overwatch clone is a hard sell to start with, throw ugly ass DEI characters in it and you get an even tougher sell. It was a generic version of multiple free games, shit was fucked from the start.

You're out of your mind, you're not striking anyone and you lost complete control of your shitty governments a long time ago. If it wasn't for our little enclaves you'd all be censored to death.

Keep being delusional, even if your country is controlled by the right wing you simply do not have the capability, nor any fucking reason, to attack anyone, let alone America.

Remember, we are really fucking far away from you, and your country is the size of a medium-sized state over here.

We don't think about you at all.

we are demanding

No, you're demanding. The rest of your fellow Europeans are happy to suckle at our teat while your military equipment rots in storage. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to leave your stinking continent alone, but your governments don't want to lose all that free money and protection.

If there's one thing European governments are good at is taking our handouts while whining about how mean and dumb we are.

Everyone makes fun of Microsoft still having their controllers run on AA's, but all my original Xbox 360 controllers work fine, the original PS3 controllers, not so much.

I tried the beta or whatever and it was dogshit, there was something dreadfully wrong with the balance, latency, or both as you'd either get merc'd in about a tenth of a second by other players, or be basically invincible depending on seemingly nothing. Also, the idea that we're fighting to raid billionaires' vaults for fucking SEGA collectibles isn't quirky, it's retarded in the context of the commie tripe they tried cramming down our throats. If the billionaires looted earth or whatever nonsense they tried to push the last thing the poor downtrodden pirates would be stealing are fucking Vinyl Pops and old video games.

The way to avoid that would have been for Chase to realize that they don't operate in a high trust society like my local bank does.

That's a feature my bank offers account holders. It's in the terms of service that you're responsible for any overdraft.

The only stupid thing was writing bad checks.
