im sure its just bullshit facebook memes that got him there but the idea of eating a bunch of lobster and steak covered in garlic butter go go in to protect israel is really funny

It's a real thing and is 100% because Israel committed to a ground invasion today and had the "a lot of you will die" speech to the troops so the US is about to fight Hezbollah.

Also it's to probably cheer them up after the scary drones.

It just looks like it was frozen and then they did the preparation where you crack the shell and have the meat stick out like it's a big grub

also interestingly there are military equipment ID numbers for steaks apparently lol

4) any FSO worth the other half of their weight in salt is gonna tell the CO how expensive steak and lobster dinner is. No one wants a 4oz cut of steak. The NY strip, Q80 I think, comes as about 7-8 oz cuts. The Tbone, Q82 I think, come as 13-15 oz cuts.

Steak and lobster doesn't really sound all that appetizing in reality; it is one of those things that was a big deal probably back in the 50s due to innovative, cheaper refrigeration.

As for if they are doing anything big, Israel keeps on talking up their ground invasion and the Eisenhower still is a ways off. Hezbollah had a massive bunker/tunnel network, I don't know what the USN is going to do besides bombing some random villages.

The Israel strikes in 2006 made little difference, it is just this time around the IAF obviously can't do both like they want.

The whole "debate" around the hospital bombing is just inherently offensive. It's so loving stupid! Israel has been bombing the surrounding area non-stop and literally warned the hospital that they were going to bomb it. And there's literally zero precedent of Hamas ever using a weapon with that destructive output. It's like if the US dropped the bomb on Nagasaki and suddenly people were like "you can't prove it wasn't the Japanese." I was initially going to say "Hiroshima," but then I realized that "thinking the Japanese did Hiroshima" is actually significantly more reasonable than the "Hamas bombed the hospital" argument, because at least there was zero precedence of "atomic bombs being dropped in the war" at the time.

Anyone dumb enough to even entertain the idea of it not being Israel shouldn't be allowed to express an opinion about anything more complicated than "what they had for breakfast this morning."

lets you know who's worth listening to and who's concerned with throwing up smokescreens for imperialism

Pretty good for Winnipeg, probably a few hundred people at its peak. There was also a pro-trans rights rally happening at the exact same time across the street, and some of them were getting in the faces of the pro-Israel crowd, which was great. Lots of support from drivers going by. The pro-Israeli side had maybe 10-15 at their max, and their speaker was drowned out by boos and cries of "Free, free Palestine." The young women holding up the Israeli flag seemed faintly mortified.

Whether it was EFPs in Iraq, Shaheed as an ultra low cost cruse missile for saturation attacks, or "Not one but two ATGMs", you do in fact gotta hand it to Iran for consistently finding the lowest cost, most mass-producible munition to defeat any opponent system. It's like the opposite of Raytheon

Ukraine has shown that things like flying lawmowers and lancets have been the most significant tool in modern warfare and all the billions the US has spent on high speed low drag artisanal crafted poo poo is a waste

I've received word from trusted sources (the IDF) that Hamas forcefed bad lobster to everyone on the carrier. I have not independently confirmed this, but they pinky swore it.
