I've been seeing these posts all over that the draft is coming back, and that we're now at war.

I don't see the story that everyone else seems to know about.

Who are we at war with, and when did this happen?

Remember, we have a lot of Tankies here and their Ayatollah just died.

They'll be lashing out and making things up wherever possible.

If you’re in the US, Iran. Last night.

Apparently the Iranian government is spineless because the US dropped three bombs on them in June 2025 and they did nothing 😂 That was all the response needed to go in for the kill.

The Trump administration has executed a strike on Iran, supposedly killing Iran's head of state, and Trump has announced 'major military action' in which US soldiers 'will die'.

The full extent of it is yet to be realized, but talk is that a lot of US troops are going to be put in harm's way.

Oh, and Trump has requested a 1.5 trillion dollar defense budget for the coming fiscal year.That's a 50% increase over what it currently is.

Holy shit. This is like when I left my house at roughly 3pm one day, took a 2 hour hour train ride to my friends house, and when I walked in my friend says "So.....what do you think?" And I said "About what?" And she says "Micheal".

We both knew a guy named Mike, but we never called him Micheal.

So I was just confused. I said "Uhhhh, I don't know what you're asking. Mike didn't come with me...."

And that's when she said "Ohhhh.....you don't know. Micheal Jackson died."

And EVERY single friend I called already heard. They were like "Yeah.....that was an hour ago. Where have YOU been??"

"Uhhhh......the train."
