How people see things and interpret things is generally tied to their political bias when talking about things like this. The trick is to disassociate yourself from those and figure out the reason...OR what other reason there would be to order the "HIT".
Most reasonable people then would come to the conclusion it was retaliation...which again is what a reasonable person does when one of their own is killed. -

Originally posted by iam_asiam68 the one thing about Netflxchillr son being a recruiter, is he is on the fast track to brass. he scored well on his asvab to get this assignment. in 12 years, he will be a lieutenant and in another 5 will be E8 or higher.
the usa government may never pay back other nations they owe, but a vet will get his monthly check and access to any base and doctors/haircut/whatever needed for his entire life.
My son knew his "calling." He was 3 years JRROTC in high school before signing into the USMC. He's been a Marine appx. 7 yrs has already reenlisted, and has moved up to his present rank some would may consider- quickly.
& it is TRUE, only the "best" men become Recruiters & Drill Instructors for the Marine Corps-- they carefully "choose" and are responsible in "training" our boys/men a 'standard' many in this forum will never accomplish, let alone understand.
and I couldn't be any more proud, that my youngest son wishes to follow in his brother's footsteps.😍👍🏻 -

…now look up the word "credible"
Of course if you are a conspiracy nut you'll reject normal credible reasons in favor of ghosties or aliens.
Unfortunately, the President lies like a rug, so no credibility there. -

Everyone lies like a rug...there isn't a politician on the planet who doesn't and hasn't.
/insert laughing till I cry emote here.
Of course if you have another reason why he ordered the strike feel free to share, but lets have some actual basis on reality rather than simple conjecture. -

Originally posted by -SpectraL Well, sure, that's why I say there's no credible proof an American contractor was even killed, much less that the Iranians did it.
What constitutes credible proof to you if you can't accept multiple sources that an event happened?...you're leaning towards the conspiracy nut argument.
A reasonable person can make a reasonable decision based on the information that is available from multiple sources. -

It's irrelevant how many sources there is. A million times zero is still zero. What matters is if the source is credible or not. The military industrial complex is not credible, as it has already fully established, through the revelation of its many, many lies. Politicians are also not credible, for the same reason: they have had their numerous lies exposed before. A credible source constitutes a source that has not already been caught in numerous falsehoods. -

International high stakes poker...being honest wont win you the pot. -

Why does this remind me of Gomer Pyle USMC and Sgt. Carter. Military will and has taken the worst for its cannon fodder.
USMC

Originally posted by -SpectraL Known and exposed liars aren't "reasonable sources".
We covered the fact everyone lies...therefore every source can be and is questionable. Being questionable though doesn't equate to EVERY report being a lie...it means you question it (hence the word questionable) rather than blindly accept it.
Blindly rejecting something is just as dumb, if not dumber, as blindly accepting something. -

Of course I do, I don't trust anyone or anything, including my mother (no matter what amazing things she used to say)
I still have to make decisions in life though if I want to move forward. I never assume my choice is 100% flawless...I weigh up the situation after gathering a reasonable amount of information on the subject matter, I then apply my personal experience if any applies, add a pinch of chaos theory and then make a preliminary decision on what I think is more likely with the proviso that that can at any time be reevaluated should more information come to light.
Assuming EVERY news source is corrupt in favor of trumps agenda is pretty dumb based on the fact most media sources are anti Trump...that's one conclusion I've made. -
