All while republicans are only concerned with inflation during a Dem adm.
Our vice president said that there was no Americans involved in any type of warfare in the Middle East or anywhere in the world
War is an Act by Congress. This is a special operation 😅😅
Either way thats a bs statement america is the world's gunslinger and involved in every war 😂
Camel-A says a lot of random things that just seem to pop into her head. She seems to have very little control over her mouth and blurts out whatever is on her mind. Unfortunately, she also seems to suffer from early-onset dementia.
So we officially entered another conflict that doesnt affect us.
The burden of having allies.
We've been involved they've been shooting at our Naval vessels in the Red Sea
Found the person that's been under a rock
Yeah, global trade doesn’t affect us.
Mucho smart.
What about those ships being taken by houti in the redsea
How much per round did we spend, asking for a friend affected by inflation
do you not realize this helps inflation? are you really that dull? who do you think is going to pay when shipping companies raise their insurance price on ships? You think they aren't just going to raise the price of goods?
The Houthis are attacking ships that deliver goods from the Middle East to the rest of the world. What goods come from that part of the Middle East? OIL. If oil tankers can't get through, what happens to global oil prices? They go UP. If the price of oil goes up, what happens to the price of everything else? It goes UP. So, tell your friend that by preventing the Houthi's from attacking ships, prices on everything that you will buy and do won't have to go up because of resticted oil shipping from the Middle East.
What's your solution? Let them shoot rockets at civilian cargo ships?
@@QuandaleGorvennot when they use a million dollar bomb to destroy a 100$ tent 😂😂😂
How does it help!? The bulk of inflation is driven by out of control corporate dept and government spending
Basically the same as Japan
When did Congress approve war?? We never had a choice
Bush was the last President that went to Congress to get approval for war. Obama set the precedent of unilaterally bombing other countries (and starting wars) with zero Congressional approval.
It’s not war. The President can unilaterally order strikes and commands the armed forces. The targets were not a government.
The warmongers are very happy

Insane amounts of the crap you buy and interact with is made up of components that are transported through the red sea. You want that to end? Thats what I thought.
And yet, all this advance weaponry, tech and unlimited war-funds can't quell a group of resistance fighters.
Who gave them authorization to strike another country. Stop this right now. the American people do no support this .
And the American people told you this? Why are the biggest clowns on the Internet always claim to speak for entire nations?
Yes we intelligent ones do wth😂 thinks there aint gona be repercussions for indiscriminately launching missiles at supply ships for all that part of the world
@@scotttousey227lol and they are just trying to disrupt ships because why? Cause they feel like it? Who caused who?
they did when they attacked global shipping lanes...
A whole bunch of us most certainly DO.
Why are we even involved?!?!?! Stop policing the world!
Allie’s are being attacked why wouldn’t the US be involved?
Because they are terrorists.
You are not we
Totally agree!!! Help American taxpayers first!
it is about stopping terrorists to attack ships, which in return increases oil prices, at least - it is not about policing in this case.

This is what isolationists said during world war 2.

@@azimuth9819not innocent. Just American and British
And then you'll be complaining again that prices go up because of supply chain issues 🤦♂️
Global shipping lanes are very much the US's business.
“Ramp up aid” you mean killings 😂
Correct. Viz. the bombing of Dresden: ua-cam.com/video/gh-KWJWRjcI/v-deo.html
See? It's historical.
Those bombers are capable of carrying out missions many thousands of miles away secretly, and literally be back home for dinner. They are crazy effective. And the targets likely never knew what hit them, until it appeared on the news.
Yeah because Houthis technology prevented any other plane from doing this? 🤦♂️🤡
How many kills do you need to call in a B-2 again? It seems like someone is carrying the team over there

That try not to run stealth too often. It actually can effect the stealthy part.

For those curious the B2 bomber is our last remaining true long range bomber aircraft we have left until the B21 Raider comes online which they are making preps to get online
B2 is still dope af. But the B21 (ie. "The Angry Dorito) is a whole other level.
Well, there still are B1`s and B52`s with stand off weapons they could use.I`m guessing US command want to make sure that US forces aren`t touched or don`t need an escort fighter contingent. B2 flying is the most expensive way for the USA to bomb targets.
I mean do we really know what the military has? 👀
Wrong, B1-Bs struck Iraq 🇮🇶 and Syria 🇸🇾 from USA.
We still have b1’s goofy
Where is the footage of these strikes from the bombers?

Why??? Like seriously.......why???
(1) Houthis are at war with Israel, not America.
(2) Literally, any other plane could have been used.
Houthis have been shooting at random ships in Red Sea, with no idea who owns it. And they don't care who owns it, as long as it gets them in the news. They've been doing it for a year.
At least five navies (including the USN) have been returning fire.
Just because the news stopped covering it, or you forgot, didn't mean it wasn't happening.
I wonder who authorized this because our commander-in-chief is not mentally sufficient to make those decisions
Netanyahu
Why are WE doing strikes?.??!!
Because Houthis attacked OUR warships, OUR allies warships and dozens of innocent commercial shipping vessels.
because they attacked us 1st.
...because Liechtenstein's Air Force said they were busy and the Canadians said "Sorry, Eh?".
@@mbbb169 because Israel need stop war in Gaza
Did you forget about the Houthis shooting willy-nilly at ships in the Red Sea? Since a year ago?
They've hit an oil tanker, caused freighter and tanker companies to reroute ships, added to supply chain costs for *everyone* in the world, and that added to inflation which is _global_ by the way.
😂That's what I call American government wasting poor Americans hard earned money like they did in Afghanistan and Iraq and achieved nothing 😂
Thank you for giving our enemies f”ull detail of what we use ! NBC YOUR SMART !
Ridiculous. I hope we dont send our cildren to war. This needs to stop 😢 why cant we just live in peace, life is too short to be killing eachother. God bless you all. I love you.
Why?
can you guys stop crying about tax dollars 💀 America brings in money their own way if you think everything is funded off tax dollars then you’re highly mistaken. you American citizens don’t get to choose what the military gets to do with the funds and utility they’re using. either love what they’re doing or leave the country.

...And not that much benefit; Western media got distracted from Ukraine, but the ammunition kept flowing and suddenly Ukrainian forces were in Kursk.
This is ridiculous. We are using that craft for the benefit of Israel. The Houthis wiuld not be attacking had it not been for Israel
