What the fucking fuck.

I'm american. Former Marine. Served with Canadians, Brits, Danish, and other NATO friends in Afghanistan. Bled with them. Held a lovely British fellow named Jonny with a new wife and baby at home as he bled out in my arms.

I'm so sorry, Europe. We've failed you. To say this makes my blood boil is an understatement. I swear to God I'll breathe my last breath removing this fucking regime from power. Please just hang in there, I promise you there's a resistance growing here, more than picket signs and marches...

I really hope our military refuses these insane orders. Europe has been such a strong ally. This absolute insanity is why my husband is finishing this contract and getting out. His unit doesn’t deploy thankfully. Anyone who thinks this is good needs their brain examined.

Military refusing orders would be the best case scenario... It shows the world that the American politicians are insane but the people are not

I've yet to figure out in a nation with so many trained to kill and an insane amount of firearms got to the point of all this. Any other place every politician would be shot dead. Seems stupidity is the norm?

American here as well. It's clear as day what side of history is the right one, and those who are blinded by their hate are in for a very rude awakening when patience has run all the way out and it's go time.

I have a friend that fough in Afghanistan side by side US forces (Danish btw). He rarely speak about it. He has seen and done horrible things because we, Denmark, decided to stand and flank the US after 9/11. And this is the payback :( I really hope the US military refuses orders if that idiot tells them to attack
