It appears Trump has started a war in Yemen with out telling us...
 

1st the raid a day ago and now we are shelling various locations in Yemen with warships off the coast and using drones.

Now we do have a history of hitting terrorist targets in Yemen going back to 2002 with drones, but to my knowledge we've never parked a war ship off the coast and shelled it.. That's sort of an escalation I'd say...

#ThanksHillary aka the war monger

Seems Trump has some new army toys to play with...

Yemen is a Terrorist strong hold. Fucking turn it into a parking lot.

YEMEN ROFL what they gunna do? Throw bricks at us?

USIS invades again...

funny there are no crockett threads about yemen when obama is bombing yemen. just trump.

another dumb lib trump attack spotted!

:1orglaugh

We need more Yemen immigrants!

keep it coming you dumb dipstick OP. I will be here, ready to call your dumbass out, every single day.

:1orglaugh

I agree, I have no issues with hitting terrorist wherever they hide, but seems to be quite a bit of a ramp up from what's happened in the past. You would think the American public would deserve to be notified that our war ships are attacking in a sovereign nation..

:1orglaugh


this is true...


how can anyone hope war will stop when someone keeps pulling the trigger!

US backing of Saudi Arabia coalition in Yemen could mean guilt in war crimes - CBS News

I am sure Trump will be careful where he is shooting :upsidedow

The USS Mason has been there firing into Yemen since October and we've had aircraft carriers out there since 2015. It's us being UAE & Sa's bitch IMO. Stop Al-queda Yemen from getting stronger going into SA :2 cents:

A many of you libs have said time and time again. "It isn't a war unless declared by Congress" So he's just dropping bombs like peace prize winner Obama.

I've never once said that...

He said last night that he was in grade school for 13 years so don't be surprised if he can't comprehend you as an individual. Hivemind

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_Powers_Resolution
War Powers Resolution is governing law in the USA

This was set up under the Obama administration and Trump just happens to be president at the time it is going down. Facts are kinda fun.

Why? We are attacking a country who has never attacked us? We are going to start another war that will never end?

I guess the fact that Obama is the one that set this all up is beyond your ability to comprehend.

Fucking snowflake.

Can we get a "blame Obama hallelujah"

I take shits smarter than you

who cares. you put words in other peoples mouths constantly. you weave up some fake news at anyone your mad at, then fling shit.

really enjoying your meltdown, by the way.

:1orglaugh

Houthis , which are yemen born rebels, kicked out the at-the-time president which was/is a puppet of Saudia Arabia ( you know , they have fliying schools .... ) .

Houthis are anti al-quaeda , by heritage , as they are shiites , not sunnis ... Yemen was nearly cleared of those rats when the USA/Saudia Arabia decided to re-instate the president, who was ion exile in SA .

Since, Al-QAuaeda has taken a foot hold in the non-houthi territory ...

Why would the US do that ? Simple, Houthis being shiites , they are supported by Iran ...


Oh... bad Iran ...

But you look at Ukraine , it is a very similar situation and the USA has no problems supporting the " rebels" into power.

Look at Syria, US has no problems supporting jihadists that are not even from Syria ... and call them rebels .

And this morning, at that prayer lunch speach, Trump said somewthing like :

The world is a fucked up place ... Somebody has to take care of it . That is what I do ... I fix thing .... I have to take care of it ...

Damn you're good! That was an awesome concise, condensed read thanks :thumbsup

Nobody remembers the bombing of the US ship that killed 17.

Yemen is pro ISIS. Fuck em.

Fuck Yemen!

Tell them to bring it!

That "excuse came from Trump's pres secretary and has not yet been backed up by anyone in the military. It's about as reliable information as the Reuters image..

ie "unverified".. Trump admin lies constantly, so we can't trust a word out of their mouths.. this is what happens when the POTUS has a lying problem.. Your excuse is deemed a lie until proven true, that's how we have to look at anything that comes from the Trump admin.

Try again old fart..with a reliable source..

You are right !

Yemen is pro-isis.... though ISIS did not exist when the Cole was attacked....:2 cents:

Secondly, that was Al-Quaeda... BEFORE the Houthis rebelled, so in other words under the previous president, backed by what is called " the west "


I think you should read a bit :

Yemen crisis: Who is fighting whom? - BBC News

USS Cole bombing was long before ISIS existed and was planed by Saudi National...

The problem is Russia & Iran do the same.. When the US was at war in Iraq, the rebels were funded by Iran & Russia. You act as if only the US does this but Russia's entire game was funding "revolutions" since WW2. Sure they were doing it as the former USSR but lets get real here, Putin thinks Modern Russia is the USSR...

Russians were funding rebels all over South America, all over Asia & most recently in the ME. This is why the US doesn't give Russia room the play anymore and why NATO has Russia boxed in.. It's not a issue of poor little Russia the good guys. Russia was always the protagonist since WW2 funding revolutions since then.. They only stopped with the USSR fell apart but Putin is once again been doing it now mostly in the ME & Africa.

If you notice the US doesn't mess around much in Africa.. Why is this? It's because the world powers spit up the map after WW2 Russia & China were to get power of Africa. The US/Europe would have power over the ME. Russia wouldn't stay out of the ME and stay with-in Africa.. This is why Russia is now boxed in because Russia didn't play by the rules they kept trying to move in on the area which were agreed to be US/Euro controlled.

I am pro Russia and anti any muslim country, just for the record

Yemen is seen as an existential threat to our 'friends' the Saudis.
With friends like the Saudis you don't need any enemies.
The House of Saud and the Iranian Shiite are ancient enemies. So, my enemy's enemy is my friend?

Like we used to sing "be the first one on your block to have you boy come home in a box" One Navy Seal came home that way yesterday and if we put boots on the ground surly more will follow.

The problem is really simple: Can the US forces deal with a lot of 'collateral' damage and stand accused as war criminals? How long are we really fighting for? It has been 13 years + already -- what have we accomplished?

Let Al Qaeda and ISIS concentrate in places then use neutron warhead tipped short range missiles -- finish them. Even if you do that, blood revenge will follow ... so where are you at? This is how the game is played in the Middle East -- the same way it has been played for 5,000 years to this day.

Robot soldiers and drones is the only way :2 cents:

Wind up the Trumpbot @

Sure , that is the name of the game: supply arms.

You conveniently left out Afghanistan, part 1 ( Charlie's War ... )

And WHAT are we fighting for?

We invaded Afghanistan to get Bin Laden. Oops, he wasn't there. But we still are.

We invaded Iraq to overthrow Sadaam Hussein. He's long dead now. But we're still there.

Hell...we invaded Germany in WW2 and we are STILL there 70 years later!
And we defeated Japan in WW2 and we are STILL there 70 years later!

When will this shit ever end? :(

I didn't leave it out, that was a different time period during the 80's.. btw I had re-edited my post perhaps while you were typing to add in a bit more detail about other areas. but Afghan was an example of Russia moving in areas that was supposed to be under the US/EU sphere of influence after ww2

Ok, if the 80's are the cutoff date.

Then let's not talk about edither USSR or USA actions in Central and South America, as well as Africa .

BTW, USSR was invited in Afghanistan by the weak government, just as they are now by the weak Syria's goverment , or the USA by the weak Ukraine's gov...

But conclusion is that Yemen should be allowed to take care of themselves without any influence.

Your wrong again.. it's been shown at the time we went into Afghan, bin Laden "was" very much still in Afghan. bin Laden escaped to Pakistan when Bush Jr took his eye off the ball to send troops to Iraq.

The very reason we are still in Afghan (which we aren't actually fighting now) is because Bush didn't finish the job of winning the war. His only real objective was attacking Iraq he never cared about bin Laden.. Bush allowed the Taliban to regroup and set up operations in Pakistan where they were no longer attack-able.

Also I remember you bitching endlessly when Obama sent troops into Pakistan to kill bin Laden. I also remember the endless whines from YOU and the conservabros because they lost a chopper in the raid..

That raid was an overwhelming success with no dead soldiers.. yet you guys couldn't stop raging about it.. Now it's different with 30 civilians dead along with a US SF and a 700 million dollar Osprey lost..

The USS Cole? I remember. I thought it was decided the Sudanese government was behind it.

But what does that matter? We attack Yemen but Saudi Arabia goes unpunished for 9/11.

It will only backfire to try to blame Yemen on Trump, probably better to keep quiet about it

Obama's abysmal track record in Yemen
https://www.alaraby.co.uk/english/co...ecord-in-yemen

I never said there was a cut off date.. there were loads of places the same things went on.. Cambodia, Vietnam, Russia was supplying the revolution in both.. Chile, Fucking Cuba where the world was almost destroyed. They tried in both Peru and Grenada. all Soviet aggression.. Toward US by trying to install commie regimes at our back door. Nicaragua, Venezuela I mean really Russians tried to involve themselves in almost every Latin American country.

Russia tried first to do it to us we actually did it to Russia and now Russia whines because they lost..


Could you imagine a dumbass like Trump being POTUS during the Cuban missile crisis? We would all be dead right now..

OMG .... Bad comrads !!!!! :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

More Crockett Science.. Obama bombed the shit out of targets and terrorists in Yemen many times and somehow thats "different". We're you crying when Obama was busy drone striking wedding parties in Pakistan? Of course not.

#TheSquealer logic... Just read the title & ignore anything written in the post, go directly to rage mode!!!

Rage mode? What rage? Laughing at your ridiculousness is hardly "rage".

What is wrong with you lunatics? You can't be honest about anyone or anything. You have to turn everything into something its not. You have to misrepresent, distort or flat out lie about the facts to make a point. That's why your "party" has basically lost the right to participate in state and federal government in the USA and why an orange haired dipshit won the right to keep you up at night, under a blanket, huddled around a few care bears and a flashlight trying to wait out the next 8 years of your worst nightmare.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Since you can't read or at least ignore anything tthat doesn't fit your "everyone is bad who doesn't think exactly like me" narrative, the article says nothing about Trump ordering anything or being involved at all.... and when warships get attacked by suicide bombers, shits going to get ugly no matter what.

^^ Redhat TRIGGERED! :mad: :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Crocket where did you get the idea Trump started this war?
