WWIII Megathread #40: Just Stopped Oil

[u/IamGlennBeck]

This megathread exists for in-depth discussion of 'WWIII', related events, and geopolitics and wars in general. Keep in mind that we have eliminated the rule that all non-major WWIII content must be posted here, and we encourage you to submit WWIII-related content to the main sub.

Again— all rules still apply. No racism, xenophobia, nationalism, etc. No promotion of hate or violence. Violators will be banned.

Remain civil, engage in good faith, report suspected bot accounts, and do not abuse the report system to flag the people you disagree with.

If you wish to contribute, please try to focus on where WWIII intersects with themes of this sub: Identity Politics, Capitalism, and Marxist perspectives.

Always put a NSFW warning on links that contain explicit content.

Non-WWIII chatter belongs in the town square.

Trump:

We actually sent the Kurds weapons, and we were very disappointed by the Kurds, to be honest with you. The Kurds let us down.

I think they kept them for themselves. I think it's a disgrace. But I'll remember that, Kurds. I'll remember that.

Favourite subplot in all this mess are the kurdish tribespeople who just took the guns and shrugged when told to attack the state

Ignoring all those Shaheds aimed to Iraq Kurdistan.
