Donald Trump Sacrifices More American Service Members Upon His Foreign Altar

The Pedo-in-Chief is just getting warmed up though.  Too bad these service members didn't refuse the unlawful orders to participate in this unconstitutional action in the Middle East as they swore before God and country to do.

Even the pretend dissenter Joe Kent (CIA guy who participated in unconstitutional actions in Syria) is advocating for escalation in the unlawful war of aggression that we started, simply because Iran retaliated.  Very dumb take for a guy who tries to talk strategy.  Joe Kent is just another example of the maxim that when the people need a dissenter, one will be provided to them by the oligarchy.  But Joe is letting his mask slip further than usual.

Get ready for body bags.  But if you have principle you'll refuse to violate the Constitution and you'll refuse unlawful orders to participate.  For the rest of you unprincipled folks who haven't even the foggiest concern for what it means to be a public servant rather than a hired thug, don't expect thoughts and prayers from those of us you're defrauding with your unlawful conduct.

If you come back as our service members are increasingly coming back, in flag draped coffins, you will be coming back as part of a sacrifice.  But it's a human sacrifice of a willing participant, not unlike those who used to volunteer to be a human sacrifice for the Aztec priests.  I like the spirit of MTG's comment, but I have to disagree that the participants aren't willing participants.
