People forget WHY we trained so hard on the DUTY to refuse illegal orders. It largely came about after the massacre at My Lai, where ‘good boys’ followed orders that made them monsters. The duty to refuse illegal orders not only protects our ‘adversary’ but America as a whole. We must be Good if we wish to maintain relevance on the global stage, might alone will not prevail. Do not commit evil for the ‘good of America’ it is a trap that will doom us all.

Happy Thanksgiving all!
X is down, NOSTR is not.
If your political party has you protecting pedophiles and supporting genocide, it’s not a political party it is a Satanic cult.
Pop quiz! Who goes in the other space?
Kash Patel is a dumb bitch
Happy Veterans Day, I’m sorry that our government finds us disposable. The government’s wars are not worthy of us and especially not worthy of our children. It is all of our responsibility to demand peace.

Seems like Dick Cheney finally will be forced to answer for his crimes…
Trump has (unilaterally) decided to attack Venezuela. The war powers belong to the people, represented in Congress, not the executive.
netanyahu ordered 'powerful strikes' in Gaza that began over an hour ago (unclear if they are continuing) . Saw (unconfirmed) reports of dozens wounded/dead in Gaza. Israel claimed Hamas fired on the IDF first .. don't forget last time the IDF blew themselves up (hit unexploded ordnance) and 'retaliated' against Gaza.
even if some Hamas fighter fired upon the IDF, no reasonable person/group/nation would take that as a serious breach of a ceasefire, nor would they be targeting civilians before or after the "breach"

Warnings from 1747, Britain's Remembrancer. We are so far down the path our founders fought against. American's should be ashamed of our ignorance.
Does he know us? Or we him? No. Have we any restriction on his conduct? No. Is he bound in duty and interest to preserve our liberty and property? No. Is he acquainted with our circumstances, situation, wants, etc? No. What then are we to expect from him? Nothing but taxes without end. -- James Otis, 1765 Talking about 'representation' in England... or maybe in America today....

Talking about 'representation' in England... or maybe in America today....
For too long the lie has been told that israel is 'our greatest ally'. It is said without evidence and expects no criticism. If you do analyze our relationship, you find time and again disrespect, subversion and outright hostility from israel.

as we get inundated with propaganda today, remember the truth of 10/7 #hannibal
Hamas has agreed to release the ‘hostages’, Trump is demanding an immediate cease to the israeli bombing and Netanyahu et al are still bombing and apparently ‘surprised’ by Trump’s demand. Pray for Peace & a Free Palestine.
I hope the IDF take over of TikTok shows people how controlled every other platform is. More people need to get on NOSTR for free speech to really make it.
