       Happy Veteran's Day. I did not fight for your freedom. I did not secure safety for anyone from enemies foreign and domestic. The military had me and my fellow GIs doing things completely unrelated to security for you and your families. What a joke, at least I get a discount at restaurants or whatever.

       @SuperLutheran @Marshall1Banana The best thing I got out of military service is learning that getting shot at doesn’t scare me that much. And learning to be racist. Other than that, I wouldn’t recommend it.

       @AntonChigurh @SuperLutheran I give it alot of shit, but I leveraged everything they had to boost me up. 75% paycheck contribution to the stock plan they had for first 2 years, then reduce to 25% for remaining. Then pre-9/11 GI for 3 years and 1 extra year switch over to Montgomery since I paid into the booster, lasted all the way into Q2 of my masters. Now... I went in when NOTHING was going on, so I wouldn't really recommend going in now that theres a very real possibility you'll get up close and personal with some pissed off slavs, not to mention the faggy mindset they have now.

       @Marshall1Banana @SuperLutheran I ended up with a really good civilian career that wouldn’t have happened without serving in the army. I also ended up getting around $80k of educational benefits, which was pretty good considering the GI Bill when I signed my contract was only about $33,000. I made a good decision at the time, but like you said I wouldn’t recommend anyone else go for it unless they don’t have any other viable options. I seriously considering going back into the Guard/Reserve as a medical officer, but after J6 and the botched Afghanistan withdrawal decided I didn’t want anything to do with it ever again.

       @AntonChigurh @SuperLutheran I got some questions about that Afghan withdrawal and the actual mission. If you check what's going on, theres alot of Taliban activity on Uzbekistan boarder diverting some attention from Russian Army, with claims of significant gains. Did US take the embarrassment of failure of withdraw as excuse to fully arm Taliban (terrorist org) with latest US weapons, or is it all just "coincidence" w/ Antony Blinkin setting things in place?

       @MemeLandfill @AntonChigurh @SuperLutheran I knew the times ISIS had with the CIA and how they were getting US supplies, but Taliban I only knew about weird happenings where they apologized to Israel about attacking a guard post and then the TALIBAN got clapped, and THEY apologized.

       @Marshall1Banana @AntonChigurh @SuperLutheran they wish their old articles they wrote and published would go away of their favorite CIA asset now that they have used him as a scapegoat, but its out here forever. Here is more info as well. TL:DR everything is truly fake and gay.wilsoncenter.org/event/ghost-wars-the-secret-history-the-cia-afghanistan-and-bin-laden-the-soviet-invasion-toSometimes I think the only thing standing in the way of world peace is my own government it seems they are at the source of every conflict.

       @MemeLandfill @Marshall1Banana @AntonChigurh @SuperLutheran The Taliban was funded by the ISI, which the CIA gave aid to. What often gets lost is Pakistan's involvement and the fact that they increasingly are acting on their own accord and with hostility to ZOG.

       @AntonChigurh @MemeLandfill @SuperLutheran I may be misremembering and my reference to the heart surgery was the kidney transplant you were talking about. I found reference to the kidney, but not the heart.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.ajkd.org/article/S0272-6386(14)00002-X/abstract&ved=2ahUKEwj68e_A1qb7AhVfkWoFHR4nAKoQFnoECA8QBQ&usg=AOvVaw04bo2bkynpsX3A3sM76WhQ

       @Marshall1Banana @MemeLandfill @SuperLutheran When I was in Iraq around 2007 we paid off the local insurgent groups with large amounts of cash to switch sides. (Company commander had about a million in cash in our safe for bribes/contracts/etc.) If this kind of thing is something a conventional army E-4 knows about then I can guarantee it’s happening at a lot higher levels of government as well.

       @Marshall1Banana @MemeLandfill @SuperLutheran So at one point I was working in the Bay Area with a doc who had been a SEAL and CIA contractor. (Trained Muj in the 80s then went over to Pakistan to do “humanitarian work after their big earthquake and look for you know who). This guy was absolutely convinced that Bin Laden had undergone a renal transplant that was arranged by the ISI.

       @LouisConde @MemeLandfill @Marshall1Banana @SuperLutheran I never went to Afghanistan so I don’t have any firsthand knowledge, but one SF memoir I read (Lions of Kandahar iirc) described how they were absolutely kicking the shit out of a Taliban unit when a bunch of Russian-built helicopters arrived and whisked the Taliban leaders off the battlefield. The author didn’t speculate about the source of the helicopters but Pakistan makes the most sense.

       @AntonChigurh @MemeLandfill @Marshall1Banana @SuperLutheran Pakistan is a lot like Turkey, but worse because they have their own nukes. They're essentially hostile, but formally severing ties would be even worse than for ZOG to tread water and keep what remaining influence they have. Especially since their gambit at flipping India isn't working out now that America is demanding everyone sanction Russia and India isn't doing it.

       @officalNIGR @Marshall1Banana @MemeLandfill @SuperLutheran Absolutely. If you’re an enlisted guy who can type and spell things correctly most of the time you’re indispensable. (I was also the company medic so I had to go to a lot of mission planning meetings).

       @AntonChigurh @officalNIGR @Marshall1Banana @MemeLandfill @SuperLutheran Yes, I honestly had no idea why they let me have access to a computer on SIPRNet, but they did. Was interesting reading the daily intel briefings the generals got. I found out how fake and gay the GWOT was, which was my first big redpill.

       @john_rando @AntonChigurh @Marshall1Banana @MemeLandfill @SuperLutheran I had those reports and saw an event I myself reported get twisted into an enemy action during a lull period when the brass were looking for reason to stay in x location. 3 month later it was raining rockets anyway lol
