This has always been the game, but the news cycle keeps getting shorter and shorter. Truly dizzying, if you stare too hard for too long.

But once you pull back and get some perspective, it’s all crystal clear. Follow the money.

You just described everyone in DC

By all means, let’s you and I decide to hate each other, instead of trying to reclaim our country back from our corporate overlords.

Dunno what to tell ya. The process is what it is. What we are seeing is a failure of of the entire system of checks and balances. The legislative and judicial branches refuse to reign in the executive branch. IMHO, our Congress members and Supreme Court are more culpable for those girls’ deaths than the soldier who fired that missile.

Yes, objectively incorrect. I agree. That’s me. Please, sleep well tonight knowing that I stand corrected.

I can’t speak for what actually happens, or what even what SOP in the armed forces might be in this situation.

SO…I googled it. Here’s the levels of complexity involved in a Tomahawk missle strike:

1. Command and Authorization (Top-Down Flow)

   Authorization: The process starts with a decision by the President, often passed through the National Security Council to the Secretary of Defense, and then to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Command Channel: The Joint Chiefs convey the order to a regional commander (e.g., U.S. Central Command or Indo-Pacific Command). Execution Order: The regional commander transmits the target information and engagement requirements to the specific launch platforms (ships or submarines).

2. Transmitting the Order to the Specialist

   Secure Communications: The order is sent via secured, encrypted digital communications to the vessel’s Tomahawk Strike Coordinator (TSC) or equivalent senior operator. TTWCS Integration: The data is directly integrated into the Tactical Tomahawk Weapons Control System (TTWCS) on board. Mission Planning: The TTWCS allows the crew to plan the route or receive pre-planned, digital target coordinates, known as a Missile Sequence Number (MSN) task.

3. Action by the Specialized Operator (Launch Team)

   Mission Assignment: The firing platform’s operators receive a digital tasker, which includes primary and sometimes backup assignments. Validation: Specialists on the bridge/combat center verify the target and launch authorization. Targeting Data Entry: The TTWCS is updated with the new target data, which may include GPS coordinates. Block IV missiles can be reprogrammed in-flight, but the launch command requires pre-defined parameters. Launch Sequence: The operators execute the final launch sequence, which involves the missile being ejected by a solid-fuel booster from the Vertical Launching System (VLS).

SO, at which point should the crew have refused the order? Where does the blame lay?

Ok. So it’s only the thousands of other elections affected by gerrymandering.

Poorly executed military action is 100% an American institution. We expect it - from the Bay of Pigs to “Mission Accomplished” in Iraq to the twenty year campaign in Afghanistan, our executive branch has a habit of making itself look incompetent.

But guess what? Nobody’s asking about Epstein, so VICTORY!

Maybe you haven’t checked the polls lately.

The president had an 83% approval among Republicans, a 3% approval among Democrats and a 28% approval among independent voters, as well as a 48% approval among men and 28% approval among women. The survey also found that 53% of voters oppose military action in Iran, 40% support it and 7% are undecided.

83% approval from his base. Crazy. The rich boomers LOVE war.

It always was. But thanks to information technology, everyone now has a front row set to the clown show.

As opposed to storming Congress and trashing the building?

Democrat or Republican, the voice of the people is dead. America is a corporate machine now. The only thing that speaks for the people is the stock market.

it “feels” like imo no one should be siding with America.

As far as I know, no other country besides Israel has sided with the U.S.

The people here have no power. The elections have been rigged for years - not necessarily by directly manipulating ballots, but by using gerrymandering (unfair voting districts) and by allowing unlimited corporate money into elections (Citizens United, 2010).

The executive branch can only be reigned in by Congress or the Supreme Court. Both seem unwilling or unable to hold the Trump admin accountable. The next step will be federal agents (probably ICE) engaging in voter intimidation at the polls. They will try to take over the actual verification and count the votes themselves.

Yeah, it makes me think that I much prefer the one on the right. I am not a fan of silicone. Or bras, for that matter.

I’ve heard a couple girls say the one on the right is ugly.

I call bullshit.

Shilling much lately?

It could be.

But I don’t see any other PC/laptop reviews by this author. He writes mostly about cybersecurity. And his Neo articles seem a bit…biased. Compare to his other articles, which are well-researched. Example:

https://www.csoonline.com/article/563017/wannacry-explained-a-perfect-ransomware-storm.html

My guess is either someone is posting articles in his name, or he’s taking a free Neo in return for a positive review.

It seems like assigning the blame solely to the soldier is downplaying the crime. Why don’t you want the entire chain of command prosecuted?

1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerrymandering
2. Yeah, you do. The first amendment still applies.

Nope. Not gonna read a 23 page document. YOU tell ME how it’s similar. Or at least copy/paste the relevant information.

Second, I’m all about prosecuting war crimes. I’d love to see this one prosecuted. How about we actually investigate it, too? Maybe, I dunno, find out who gave the order. If bad intel was passed. If the leaders knew about the bad intel but decided to proceed.

Ofc, this won’t actually happen. The “war” is just another distraction, until the next manufactured crisis and the next until humanity snuffs itself out with its own all-too-clever Machiavellian schemes.

But by all means, throw the full weight of social justice at the poor sap who has to live with knowing his finger pushed a button that killed 160 innocent girls. Beloved daughters and sisters, erased from this world to amuse a demented billionaire’s ego.
