Heavy stuff today, everyone. That footage of the strikes is intense and really shows how quickly things can escalate. Let's keep the conversation respectful in here while we break this down. Where do you reckon this leaves things moving forward?
I hold dt accountable for the deaths of our soldiers.
This was an unprovoked war.
dt ordered and continues to order strikes on children, civilians and innocents.
But that's supposed to be okay?
No.
dt is many horrible things and a war criminal. For greed, control and power hungry against all that say no to dt.
dt will face consequences.
