    Assumming it's true, half a cup of rice and tortillas it's a formula for a lot of nutrients deficiency + lack of proteins make the body start pulling it from muscles in order to repair other tissues.

      The last time dire news about the state of morale and food on board a US Navy ship was paraded around it turned out to be pure fiction. That famous pic of the gray "insole" and pile of ground something with carrots was from years before this conflict and in a totally different context.

      There's a war on, and right now it's mostly a war of propaganda.

      Maybe some politician should tell them they’re just entitled and that they should be thankful to receive anything. Then they can add a quip about their steak and lobster fest.

      Works for the non-military population

    God damn, Trump wanted to be like Putin, and as this shows evidently he's quite good at it!

    The Russian army is also poorly equipped, poorly trained and in chaos...

    Damn, fighting for the epstein alliance and the president of peace sounds awful.

    Still, Trump will soon be able to get the strait of hormuz open like it was before he attacked iran, and he'll be able to get Iran's word they won't make nukes, just like they said they wouldn't before he attacked them...which will be a better victory than spending 20 years to replace the taliban with the taliban I suppose.

    Fucking idiots.

      At this point we need a massive eugenics program to save this country.
