A single use of military force, even if inappropriate, does not equal a war.

We shall see what the next few days bring.

"the risk of war" ???? It is a DONE DEAL.....


When Pearl Harbor was attacked,
I don't recall President Franklin Roosevelt saying that
"the risk of war is great!" lmao


Hakeem should be saying "STOP THE WAR!" but he is starting to look a little lame,
as many of supposed "Democratic Party Leadership politicans"
have been doing since Trump took office....

But fortunately--- Trump has already called for "PEACE"--
after bombing Iran on behalf of the genocidal state of Israel....

(while Israel killed some more Gaza Palestinians looking for food...)
