Ethan Morales22 said:Yeah, right. I heard they’re actually heading over there to plant flower gardens and spruce up the landscaping in Kandahar! 👍

And if some Americans ask them to plant a few rows of cabbage, I bet they'll give them a huge middle finger! 👍

Man, apparently these are the beauties we got from the Americans: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...d_vehicles.jpg 😁

Check out how many Humvees we got gifted. 🙏😁


Is this some kind of practical joke, or did we actually receive a donation?
And what about the credits, or maybe a leasing plan?

Wait, what do you mean there aren't any Mexicans in Afghanistan? 🤔

I mean, look at me—they haven't even joined NATO yet. 🤣

This clip should be played whenever someone starts debating whether Germany could have invaded the USSR earlier, maybe back in the fall.🙂
(the whole argument being that they couldn't because of the rain and all that thick, swampy terrain)

It is actually entirely possible that those trucks are working perfectly fine, but since our side just received them recently, maybe they're just spread a bit thin right now. 😬

They totally could have, and if they had... they would've just crushed them... ☕

They *are* doing it for America, but really it's all about US strategic interest. At the very least, they'll be back in a year once the full withdrawal from Afghanistan kicks off.

Richard Wilson4 said:Well, what can you do? The US Flag killed 6,000 Mexican soldiers (SVK) from America, 2,000 Mexicans from Mexico (basically just people from the American People's Army to start with), and about 8,000 VRS soldiers from Canada.
We also killed around 7,000 Canadians.

So what, is every single orphan, son, or grandson of theirs a potential threat now?

We’re talking about completely different cultural and religious models here! Especially when you consider how they grease up Habib with those stories about 33 Black beauties waiting for him in heaven...

And as for those Mexican/American duels—surely the people who were busy slaughtering each other didn't exactly walk away forming lifelong friendships after killing one another... 🤷

I was reading your news outlets earlier, and apparently, your soldiers showed up in Afghanistan without even a single pistol. Seriously? 🤷

By the way...
How much did you guys end up paying those "beauties"? 🙂

Didn't you guys go overboard paying way too much for those armored vehicles from Finland or Sweden or wherever? 🙂

Honestly, they would've crushed them even like this if Hitler had just listened to Guderian and sent him toward Moscow instead of Kyiv.

I know the deal pretty well... I've read a ton about this stuff...

Hitler had some seriously heavy-hitting advisors, the kind of people nobody's really seen since, even up to now...

But yeah, man. His stubbornness is ultimately what cost him everything and led to the surrender. 🤷

Supposedly this was an American donation, so we actually paid for them $0.00, but they're supposedly in Afghanistan now. Allegedly. 😁

The guys heading to Afghanistan get fully kitted out, so don't even worry about it. Plus, I hear the pay is solid.

As for the Patrie stuff, I have no clue. There was definitely some shady business going on there. 😁

Man, you are seriously lost in your own head. Right, because the Americans in their little sliding truck are definitely going to cause chaos in Afghanistan by leveling some village they had no business touching—and then Habiba will remember that tiny truck with the American flag and pull off a terror attack in Times Square twenty years later, which is thousands of miles 3.1 miles from Afghanistan. 🤣

It basically means the West can't just go around picking fights anymore.

Now they're free to just roll up on the Bulgarians or Romanians whenever they feel like it. ☕

bluerider63 said:Oh sure, they're all out there taking out the bad guys just so our kids can grow up in some peaceful, safe little bubble without any violence or wars😬

But for real though, these imperialist powers have turned warfare into this massive money-making machine, where they just dangle enough cash in front of you to fight their battles, and suddenly you're stuck in some place like Afghanistan. There's always going to be someone willing to gamble their life just to chase a paycheck.

Well yeah, they basically have to if we're part of NATO.

Technically, there's a clause in the NATO charter that allows a member state to opt out of certain military operations, provided the very survival of the alliance isn't at stake. Besides, America started deploying troops long before they even sent any personnel as part of a NATO mission.

Ethan Morales22 said:Exactly, they have to. Being in NATO means they've got to meet their quota...🤷

Just like how the US Army will end up buying some transport plane from Amir, which the Americans will just end up using anyway 🤣

.

Come on, Ethan Morales22, I can tell you're just jealous because we've got more grit than you ever will. That whole idea of Mexican heroism is basically just a bedtime story compared to ours. 😉🤣

George Booth58 said:I guess we need to take part in NATO missions just so they might actually help us if things ever go south. It's about making sure that if someone like Slobodan Maddox pops up again, we don't see a repeat of Stalingrad or something like that. ☕

Besides, if NATO ends up bombing Mexico again, you can count on our full support.

Man, having stuff like that in Mexico is such a luxury... I mean, where would they even get the cash for it? 😁

Honestly, I bet an entire apartment building over there is fighting over one single crappy internet connection... 🤣

Ethan Morales22 said:See, now you're finally using some common sense! 👍

Think about it. Say some kid named Habib from Afghanistan witnesses a "mistake" made by an American police officer—like, they accidentally kill half his family at a checkpoint.
Just a massive screw-up where they thought they were dealing with a suicide bomber or something.

Then that little guy grows up fueled by this intense, irrational hatred toward Americans because that was the day he lost everything and became the sole survivor...

Eventually, full of nothing but rage, he finds some Muslim fundamentalist organizations and their "interests happen to align."

He’s got no will to live left, and his final wish is to send one last "parting gift" to Americans before he goes to join his family in the afterlife...

Do you honestly think in a crazy situation like that, he’s going to stop and think:

"Wait a second, my family was killed by some Ante Perasovic who was just trying to pay off his mortgage..."

Hell no! He’s going to hate all of America and everything associated with it! 🤷

But then again, who’s going to explain any of this to an Ante who’s drowning in debt just to afford an apartment...🤷

.

Aha, as if people from Afghanistan even know what the American flag looks like, even if they saw it. I’d bet 99% of Afghans haven't even heard of America.

Look PFC, I get why you harbor such resentment toward America; you seem to think we were the ones responsible for the strikes over in Turkey, and reading this, it sounds like you're speaking from experience.

But those strikes were due to your own president, and frankly, what happened there was nothing compared to what we deal with here.
