The difference between the spike in global oil prices now versus 2022 is that this time the US president single-handedly caused it to happen overnight with a policy while accepting no responsibility, while the US president in 2022 was blamed for it even though he didn’t cause it.
These people are crazy and are going to get us all killed.
Thousands?
Historically the only number I can find is about 600 that were attributed to Iranian-backed forces in the Iraqi war in the 2003-2011 timeframe.
Plus the six so far in this war.

I *have* to point out that "mutilization" is not even a real word.
This is a bs “apology” from Fox. They claim it was “inadvertent” - a lie. They aired old footage because they didn’t want to show Trump wearing his campaign hat during the ceremony. Then in this statement they STILL don’t show the correct footage of Trump. bsky.app/profile/aaro...
God, we have so much work to do on the other side of all this ...
