Too bad that the U.S. government of both administrations has fro decades perpetuated myths and lies about the history of Israel. Just a few: that the Jews never disappeared completely from Israel, that Jerusalem has had a majority Jewish population since 1800, that Zionists in the late 19th and early 20th centuries bough their land from willing seller, the Palestinian involvement with the nazis, that Jordan was supposed to be the Palestinian state, the expulsion of $400k Jews from the Arab countries, and I could go on for two pages.

This poor stupid bastard, like millions of Americans, had no idea that there are most emphatically two sides to this story

But, oh well, too late now and I’m glad he and his diseased
Mind are dead

When I retired in 1999...they were just starting to get H/S graduates who were on anxiety medication, and maybe 2-percent were prone to panic issues (couldn’t handle relationships or multi-task projects).

I would guess today that 10-percent fall into this category. You’d have to coach them through the work-day.

Hard to beleive that the military would even accept anxiety patients into such a high stress occupation. But they do. Common sense jusy isn’t very common anymore in our woke society

Is it bad manners, to light your cigar off his burning remains?

Just making sure this wasnt catching on. Two or three every century is about the norm isnt it?

Is it cold there? Why the woodland camo field jacket, is that standard Air Force uniform? The Army gave that up decades ago. Not much fire protection, just more fuel.

Its very fanatical to set yourself on fire. Either for a Shaolin monk or a lunatic underling in the Air Force. I dont think that either one knew quite as much as they thought they knew right before the realization that, “Oh sh!t! This hurts way more than I every imagined and I doubt anyone in future generations will even be impacted by me doing this incredibly stupid thing.”

USAF and Urmy both wear the same OCP camo pattern now.

I pray daily that God would restore the US military to a powerful force for good.

Clearly mentally ill. The ironic part is our military is not even involved, and if they were, Aaron Bushnell would 99% not be involved unless he was in aircraft maintenace or logistics. But since he was in the D.C. area, that was a remote possibility.

Probably a cover up for a vaccine related death.
