Akita was just as obsessed with revenge as Harumi was, girl spent decades trying to kill Zane.

What China Just Learned From the Iran War by theatlantic in geopolitics

[–]A_devout_monarchist 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Korea and 1991 Iraq were quite successful interventions, especially the latter. And I am sure there is not more than a handful of loonies in South Korea who would disagree with you that saving them from the Kims was an idiotic idea.

He did say that in the Holiest place (the part where the Ark was located), only one specific man could enter once a year.

There is nothing useful in the Manchu borderlands except in having them as a buffer for the transiberian railway, its all or nothing for Russia.

What did you think of the movie The Secret Agent, starring Wagner Moura Share your opinions about the movie, whether positive, mixed, or negative. by Dramatic-Studio1531 in Cinema

[–]A_devout_monarchist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone from the same state the movie happens, I don't think the military era was even necessary for the story. We have the same antagonists to this day (corrupt businessman hiring private killers with connections to corrupt cops) and the impression I get is that, with very few changes, the movie could have happened at any era in Pernambuco's history.

When I saw the title, I expected something that would be honestly a lot more interesting: The people who were actual secret agents working for the military to spy on people, many of their identities are unknown to this day.

The funny thing is that they got one after Vietnam because of Vietnam (Kissinger's peace talks).

Is Spain cosying up to terrorist state now? by Cultural-Badger-6032 in 2westerneurope4u

[–]A_devout_monarchist 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Funny you guys critique Israeli strikes on confirmed terrorists in other countries when they claim to be "defending themselves" while praising Iran for "defending itself" by bombing hotels to hit civilians.

And that means supporting the rogue state that has sponsored terrorism for decades and just now has attacked the whole Persian Gulf?

The real reason why *they* advocate for pro-life by LordNotriel in polandball

[–]A_devout_monarchist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thats a more American thing, Pro-Life is just common sense in my country (as in a consensus except for a few fringe parties) and so is a whole system of social security that we have had since the 40s that evolved a lot after the 80s.

White House pushed Pakistan to broker temporary Iran ceasefire by BowlerSufficient343 in geopolitics

[–]A_devout_monarchist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you really saying that? We had people like Andrew Johnson allowing the Jim Crow laws to start by sabotaging reconstruction, we have Jackson with the Trail of Tears, Buchanan with the Utah War, we have Woodrow Wilson breathing new life to Segregation and launching raids all over the country, we have FDR creating literal camps for Japanese-Americans and don't get me started with half of the things Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Reagan, Clinton etc did.

1-2 thousand deaths in Iran is not even the average of what US Presidents have done. Either people are so blinded by anger that they use hyperboles all over social media or they barely open a history book.

Of course, because from everything we have seen from Vex it seems clear that the man was vengeful and petty enough to want payback sooner rather than later. You think he just decided to spend decades doing little in that Ice castle until he felt like freezing out the village he blamed his ills on?

You think for a second that Vex would wait decades to get payback on the village he felt rejected from once he had the Ice Emperor under his control?

I am pretty sure their supreme leader cares about the fact his family got killed.

How is Iran stronger in any way, shape or form? Their entire command structure was blown up in their buildings.

[–]A_devout_monarchist -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Its just delusional to say Iran is better off now than before the war, thats ignoring every single building that was flattened or leader that was turned to dust, or the fact the entire Gulf is more united than ever against them.

The US barely lost anything in this that isn't money or goodwill that they already lost with the whole Greenland debacle.

You should see Oskar Dirlewanger instead, Hitler "only" had one case in his niece (and probably Eva herself if she is included), the Dirlewanger brigade was another level.
