I mean, how many actual “good guys” are there in Pulp Fiction? Willis gets involved with gangsters and kills a man, Jackson and Travolta are hitmen, Rhames is the main gangster, Tarantino’s character seems like a piece of shit, Keitel’s a mob cleanup man, Stoltz is a drug dealer (what a stacked cast!) Marvin and his more fortunate colleagues are thieves, Zedd and the gimp are racists…all that leaves is a man who hid an uncomfortable hunk of metal up his ass for years.

He wasn’t trying to claim that as a real bible verse, fyi. He called it the “Book of CSAR 25:17”, basically saying it’s like scripture for search and rescue. People seem to be missing that context and claiming he’s saying it’s a real verse. He’s still a b***, but accuracy matters.

I get it. He’s relying on the fact that very few “Christians”know enough Bible to question him. He’s also relying on the fact that the viewing public doesn’t have a clue what CSAR is. To cloud it as he did for the purpose of winning minds was disgustingly shallow and should have been called out. His general demeanor at the podium (his pulpit) is the whole Christian narrative, bastardized Bible use, and totally hollow praising of God. He’s a c**** carnie just like his boss.

VTcamperguy21 hr ago

If he was trying to make people think that was real scripture he wouldn’t have said “CSAR”, and the audience for that speech was a military group who would know what CSAR was. There was zero attempt to pretend that was an actual bible verse. To try and frame it that way hurts your credibility in criticizing him on the actual shitty things he does.

They’re getting munitions help from China. It might look like it’s from some other country,but that’s how it’s done, just like when the US used to arm rebel forces via another country for plausible deniability.
And as Iran gets more respect from nonstate actors and help from China and political/economic clout from the Strait, the US becomes less believable as an ally and less respected on the world stage.

The distain this man has for Iran reminds me of the time way back in '22 when another asshat thought he would need no more than 3 days to subdue his opponent. Population of Ukraine/Russia in 2022 is 41,000,000/127,000,000 or Ukraine is .27 % as populous as Russia. Population of US/Iran in 2025 is 342,000,000/92,500,000 or Iran is .27% as populous as US. Both Ukraine and Iran were perceived (rightly so) to be militarily inferior. Both superior countries put their opponents on death ground where death is preferable to surrender and both have adapted. Of course they're digging shit up. Russia thought Ukraine was a backward "woke" bunch of artists. They are now the premier anti-drone experts in the world. Don't get me started on R&D or counter-intelligence. So, yeah Pete... enemies gonna enemy. F****** dumbass.

He’s a fool but hes probably not wrong. Considering iran still has launch capability after according to trump they have no launchers left. Except they arent buried under sand. Its more like they are in underground storage that is in an inconspicuous remote location. Hegseth also said their stockpile of missiles is depleted, it isnt. They have been preparing for major confrontation from at least the 90s.
The missiles arent overly sophisticated or cutting edge tech (by today’s standards) so they mass produced them. Their shahed drones are mass produced and im guessing the munitions in those are something they’ve also had for decades.
