Can't tell if this is a op sec failure or psy op, but I'm pretty sure I got a us soldier to reveal their location in al jahrah governate.

Maybe this is common knowledge. Either way fuck Trump's illegal war

The US has had a continuous and significant military presence in Kuwait since 1991. They have multiple bases in Al Jahra Governate. The whole world already knows where these bases are. You didn't score some great gotcha against the US military.

Fuck Trump and fuck this stupid war with Iran. But even so, it's shitty of you to fantasize about getting someone killed.

Except that still leaves knowing that potential for an operation out of there. Still worth letting Iran know.

I told the other guy that it's to make soldiers go AWOL. The fantasy would actually be saving civilian lives at the cost of us soldiers.

it's good when fascist soldiers die

Nooo you gotta debate them in the marketplace of ideas /s

Actually I'm hoping they go AWOL to save their ass, but you're also under the impression that these soldiers are innocent...

Yeah it's kinda like revealing the Nazi's troop position to the allies. You ain't gonna say the Nazis are victim of circumstance knowing what their government does and what their fellow troops have done

The protests weren't a wholesale denunciation of Iran's government. There was some who protested for that, but most protested because of the result of US sanctions resulting in a devastating degradation of Iranian people's quality of life.
The protests and their supporters were mostly in urban centers, which the US and Israel hit. Anti-government sentiment was annihilated the instant they were attacked (or became so low on anyone's priority that it's functionally the same).
US and Israeli bombs don't magically spare protesters ⁉️⁉️ Like, what could possibly go in your head when hearing that Iran is defending itself, to conclude that it's bad for Iranian people? The best thing for Iranian protesters is that Iran wins unequivocally

Your weak ass defense of the US would be ridiculous if Iraq didn't happen; the fact that you're unable to learn from it is sobering. Iraqis being freed was one of the reasons given back then; as a reminder more than a million Iraqis died to it.

Do you think Iraqi protesters were spared?

42 years of sanctions+the environmental impact of black rain+the destruction of public infrastructure probably kills more

a nation that recently killed 10s of thousands of its own citizen

According to whom, Trump controlled US media? How convenient for these claims to suddenly appear just before the US invasion. I definitely don't recall this exact same scenario playing out just before the Iraq invasion too, which was later proven to be completely false.

Why is nobody thinking about the poor lil wannabe-brown-people-killer 😭

I'm not sure, but I hope you find out. Americans need to learn that all's fair in love and war. You know they'd be chomping at the bit for any information on Iranian soldiers.

True no one has issues with Iran soldiers locations getting exposed. They would probably just say that's war
