    I could literally give zero fucks about an Iranian/Russian/ us/French/ Canadian war ship. I hope all the warships from every country kill each other. But please bring Petey with you.

    Drop Site News reporter Ryan Grim noted that, in addition to striking what appears to have been a defenseless boat, the US also didn’t help rescue any of the shipwrecked men who were aboard the vessel.

    “The Sri Lanka Navy was left to pull the dead bodies from the water,” Grim commented. “I am hard pressed to think of any other nation throughout history that would do something so cowardly and despicable. We are genuinely in a league of our own, and American media—mostly shrugging off the bombing of a girls school and acting as if carpet bombing Tehran is a normal military tactic—is deeply complicit.”

    They torpedoed an unarmed ship and watched as everyone drowned. This is the US military under a drunken white supremacist fratboy working for a senile pedophile rapist.

      Typically submarines aren’t in a position to offer refuge to shipwrecked sailors, but to my recollection there hasn’t been submarine warfare since WWII. They sank a ship that didn’t present any threat and likely could have been neutralized with a number of alternate approaches.

        Yup but also, the idea of submarines providing rescue went out the window. Even the nazis were trying to rescue people at one point, and the allies attacked them after they broadcasted their rescue attempts

        The US has the most powerful military in the world. This was just cruelty

        Ha, IDF are chumps compared to who’s running America (and probably your country, too).

        It’s right out in the open, really. Look at THE FED for clues

        These are not nationalist interests

      Accidental double click, must be using a well worn Logitech G500 series (those mice are notorious about the bad switches used in them which results in regular double clicks after about 2.5 years of use).

    Bloodthirsty maga savages did not even give the boys a chance to surrender. You see why Iran regards the Yanks as “The Great Satan”?

      The us is insane. But looking for sympathy for a religious ethnostate that just murdered thousands of its civilians is a lol. GTFO 🤣

      Everyone sucks here and I couldn’t care less since it’s in the sea in warships. Fuck every last one of both these war mongers.

      In the calmest of times submarines have poor connectivity with the outside world, so there’s no telling what they’ve been told.
