    Keeping time lines into perspective

    Feb 28 school gets bombed.

    On March 2, 2026, First Lady Melania Trump became the first spouse of a world leader to preside over a UN Security Council meeting, focusing on protecting children, education, and technology in conflict zones. Held during the U.S. presidency of the council, she advocated for AI in education and safeguarding learning, addressing the body amid tensions regarding Middle East conflicts

    That’s what honor will do for you. Fortunately for Trump, he has no such problems.

    >“The strikes on this compound have the signature of a U.S. strike,” Bryant told The Intercept. “The strikes on this compound are also incredibly precise and well-placed. This entire compound — including the girls’ school — was deliberately targeted in a highly precise strike operation.”

    I was intentional too..

  4. No one with a brain is going to believe that at the exact same moment the US was blowing up a bunch of buildings next door, Iran just happened to blow up another building that is inconvenient for the US in terms of PR.

    Combined with the fact that the building was part of the military base before 2016, it’s plainly obvious what happened. They acted on sloppy expired intel because they don’t care about Iranian civilians and American leadership is devoid of anyone with a conscience.

    I mean, best case scenario for anybody who still believes in the moral high ground of the US military is that this was a terrible, terrible accident and that they bombed the school based on bad intel or an idiot’s mistake. Even in that case, heads have to roll. There is little dispute that the Russians shot down that Malaysia Airlines plane on accident too, but (rightfully!) no one has forgiven them for that either. These are the kind of mistakes that you just can’t have.

    If Trump said Iran did it then it’s a goddamn lie because the man knows nothing about the truth ever

  7. Does anyone believe Trump’s horse shit?

    The US attacked an Iranian Revolutionary Guard building adjacent to the school, a cruise missile was pictured hitting the area at the same time as the school was hit – Iran does not have that missile.

    Yet Trump’s claim is that at the identical moment that US forces were hitting the compound that Iran got hold of a cruise missile and fired it at a school.

    If want we want to gain ground over Informational Warfare, it starts with accepting responsibility. Bending the rules to meet power with power is not going to work.

    Uh-oh, during a Holy War people aren’t allowed to disagree with He Who Was Anointed By Jesus.

    remember this is his need to follow the rules of Roy Cohn… never admit you were wrong even when all else proves it without a shadow of a doubt.

    **The Three Rules Defined:**

    * **1. Attack, Attack, Attack:** Never play defense. If attacked, respond immediately with a more aggressive counter-attack to put opponents on the defensive.
    * **2. Admit Nothing, Deny Everything:** Never concede wrongdoing, apologize, or show weakness .
    * **3. Claim Victory and Never Admit Defeat:** No matter how badly a situation turns out, publicly proclaim success to control the narrative and refuse to acknowledge loss

    Trump lies, constantly. Lying is his signature move. There is absolutely no reason to believe that he says anything in good faith.

    Sure sounds like the US militaries tasking and objections where overridden by civilian leadership.

    Didn’t SecDef. (Congress hasn’t changed the name and I’m not using whiskeypetes preferred pronouns), mention no woke and no RoE last week?.

    Seems to be a consistent pattern with this administration.

    Front page New York Times article with pictures showing a Tomahawk missile inbound doesn’t really help *rump’s case.

  14. Look, dude, if you’re going to initiate a war, you have to at least own up to accidents and mistakes that might be made instead of trying to pretend you and all your ways are perfect.

    If they did endorse it, the obvious follow-up question would be who gave Tomahawk cruise missiles to Iran.

    Remember when the US President didn’t blatantly lie to our faces every single day?

    Looks like some generals need some firing for not backing dear leader

    Didn’t the Pentagon already come out that it was likely them (via their investigators)? I’m sure that went over well with Kegsbreath

    My question is what will be done if it’s proven the U.S. Military bombed the girl’s school? I believe they did it. I’m just curious.
