    We have major tensions building in the middle east. Asia is on the verge of a major conflict with the US, Taiwan and the Philippines. Europe is preparing for a larger conflict in that region and South America is about to go full scale conflict... Are we already in the early stages of a world war?

    All of this conflict and having Biden for president is like having a drunk toddler behind the wheel driving you home.

    Let's not forget about the invasion taking place on America's southern border. We are certainly seeing things heat up quickly with no solutions other than a military solution. When diplomacy fails wars become the solution.

    I really don't think Biden is making any decisions at this point. The scary part is unelected officials are making the decisions. People like Austin who checked out for days during a very crucial time. Someone knew he was out of action but we know it wasn't Biden. I would like to know who Austin informed of his absence?

    Young military aged men standing at parade rest. Looks like military trained migrants.

    I see, so you think that the US controls every nation in the world.

    Apparently you're not a fan of history. Both WWI & WWII was marred with conflicts around the globe, prior to the start of the great wars.

    yeah I know … I use the term soccer over there just to rile up my local friends … they know I’m very sarcastic and not an ugly American …

    I shipped over a bunch of NFL jerseys and hats for the kids in the neighborhood … looking for a new chapter … should I have bought some MAGA hats just to even things out??? …

    Immigration number one concern for Iowans. Biden’s poll numbers are taking a hit on that issue followed closely by the economy.

    I assume the US/UK coalition will decide if more Yemen strikes are warranted after this.... and ignore MAGA Chicken Little bullshit about world wars...

    Sounds like that needs to happen and you SHOULD support that coalition defending worldwide shipping routes...

    The Israeli's don't care about a ceasefire, so that option is essentially closed.

    A few of our resident bydummy supporters that said he did the right thing assured me that there would be NO RETALIATION OR ESCALATION.

    As somebody NOT salivating for a world war for political gain, I'll take that sarcasm as a compliment...
