Weird. Two out of three of those things have happened in my house today (might watch a South Park episode just to round it out)
American Idiot was such a great album. And still pertinent now, more than ever.
Hypnotize / Mesmerize easy listening version.
I think Holiday may even be more relevant now than when it came out.
dookie will always have a place in my heart.
The year is 1991, the US goes to war in the middle east. The year is 2002, the US goes to war in the middle east. The year is 2026, the US goes to war in the middle east.
We actually were deployed to Afghanistan by October 2001.
Also we were in Iraq until 2011 and in Afghanistan until 2021.
So while the gap between 2001 and 2026 seems large, its actually only been five years since we ended occupation of Afghanistan.
Sorry are we not still in Iraq?
We have bases still in Iraq, but we fucked up so bad there that major troop withdrawal was done at the end of 2011. Obama tried to keep our troops there longer, but the Iraqi government basically kicked us the fuck out, and we only had 500 soldiers there as of December 2011.
We still have a presence there, but based on cursory research, it's shared space, like Balad AFB which houses the Iraqi military's F-16 squadron as well as US personnel. Al Asad Air Base has US personnel from four divisions of the armed forces, and there are Danish soldiers stationed there as well, and it seems one of the main uses of the base is the continued training of Iraqi soldiers. There may be more in Iraq, but they are smaller and likely short-term use.
An amount of US soldiers were deployed all over the middle east starting in 2014 as a support role in the overarching war against the Islamic State (ISIL), but they had been brought in as a support network for Iraq defending itself from ISIL after ISIL made significant successes in Iraq in 2014. Seems like there's only about 2,500 US personnel in Iraq all told since the end of 2021, and that was from agreements Biden organized for a continued US presence with an advisory and training role for US soldiers.
I would say being involved to help stop an invasion into Iraq and helping their armed forces along with a coalition of other nations also in support capacities was materially different than the US invasion in 2003.
oh yeah...remind me again... who pulled us out of the middle east?
I don't want to be an American idiot.
That's what I almost titled this post.
A bit on the nose eh?
Who was the last Republican president that didn't initiate a war in the middle-east?
This goes back as far as I can remember.

And the democrats between then signed a bunch of laws and set a bunch of precedents that they claimed where good and necessary but allowed their shitbag successors to do godawful dystopian nightmare shit
And they wonder why everyday more and more I think Marx was cooking
TBF out of the 249.7 years the USA has existed they've been at war for all but 16 of them.
Oh shit, has September just ended?
One more month, wake me up when October ends 😩
Wake up!
I remember thinking how this was the beginning of the end for Green Day.
I love it when I'm wrong
Pretty sure September ended on September 10th, 2001.
What's really wild is it's almost 23 years on the nose since the war in Iraq started on March 20th, 2003.
Bush and the military apparatus at the time was willing to at least pretend they had legitimacy by calling it "Operation Iraqi Freedom" whereas "Operation Epic Fury" just describes Trump throwing ketchup covered plates at the wall because he's an irrationally angry bitch baby.
I had no idea it was called “epic fury” until NPR mentioned it during morning edition today. I almost crashed my car laughing at that Idiocracy-ass name.
That shit sounds like an energy drink for dudes with restraining orders.
Epic Fury...

Epstein Files?
This was the joke back in 2016: "Blink 182 dropped a new album, Clinton is running for president, and Independence day just came out? What year is it?"
I wish.
