Who was the last Republican president that didn’t initiate a war in the middle-east?
This goes back as far as I can remember.
TBF out of the 249.7 years the USA has existed they’ve been at war for all but 16 of them.
The year is 1991, the US goes to war in the middle east. The year is 2002, the US goes to war in the middle east. The year is 2026, the US goes to war in the middle east.
I don’t want to be an American idiot.
That’s what I almost titled this post.
This was the joke back in 2016: “Blink 182 dropped a new album, Clinton is running for president, and Independence day just came out? What year is it?”
What’s really wild is it’s almost 23 years on the nose since the war in Iraq started on March 20th, 2003.
Bush and the military apparatus at the time was willing to at least pretend they had legitimacy by calling it “Operation Iraqi Freedom” whereas “Operation Epic Fury” just describes Trump throwing ketchup covered plates at the wall because he’s an irrationally angry bitch baby.
Oh shit, has September just ended?
Wake up!
I remember thinking how this was the beginning of the end for Green Day.
I love it when I’m wrong
Pretty sure September ended on September 10th, 2001.
I wish.
The war on the Iranian regime is way more justifiable, being for the imec trade corridor which is likely to bring traditional enemies together on the same side, than the war in Iraq (which was about resources for America and the Bush family lineage).
