Too Little Too Late

Trump posted a half apology for trashing European NATO veterans who died supporting the U.S in by acknowledging the UK's sacrifices in Afghanistan after 9/11. It was the first and only time Article 5 was implemented.

The most selfish parts of me war within, knowing the stories between God and I. The sacrifices for other people...but when I was on my deathbed only my parents and sister were there. Everyone who ever said I love you was not.

Giorgia Meloni has condemned Donald Trump’s remarks on NATO’s role in Afghanistan, stressing that Italy’s sacrifices were real and that her country’s contribution “cannot be called into question.”

"And the more that I am in pain, the more that you'll gain
And to me, that seems like a pretty fair trade
You bite, my nervous system ignites
The tormenting spite, sacrifices must be made"

Les sacrifices, c'est toujours "pas si grave" quand on n'a pas prévu de faire partie des sacrifiés.

La légende Rod Stewart s’en prend violemment à Trump, qu’il qualifie de réfractaire au service militaire pour ses propos méprisables insultant les sacrifices des soldats britanniques et des autres troupes de l’OTAN morts en Afghanistan. @nicolasirkis.bsky.social

Do not forget, that trump russian's asset goal is to set premises for a civil war inside the US!
Freedom came with great sacrifices, but without it, there is no life.

considering the foundation was designd for a nursery of the Christian religion, & has not bin in being much above 250 years, that ’tis not likely any remain of the Gentils relating to their sacrifices should in so public a manner be sufferd in it.

The #1 priority is that the text still has to sound natural. If you have to bend over backwards to keep every nuance of the original text, you probably have to make some sacrifices so the reader doesn't get lost in the sauce. The translation will never be 100% accurate, and that's okay.

What a snivelling display from the right wingers,so relieved by Trump’s limp walk-back that they’re tripping over themselves to thank him.
Saying the opposite of what you said yesterday isn’t an apology.
It sets nothing straight, acknowledges no NATO sacrifices, &there’s nothing honourable about it.

Dear friends, our warriors brave freezing cold and relentless attacks, fighting for our shared freedom.
Show them their courage matters & their sacrifices aren't forgotten❤️‍🩹.

Convenience and cost are the most obvious sacrifices. However, I've found it mentally cleansing to experience delayed gratification again (only 1 or 2 days extra wait), and am happy for the extra ~5-10% markup to land in pockets other than Amazon's.

Yes. That said, while each person in the line needs to and deserves to face consequences, I fear a scenario where the "immune to prosecution" corruption at the top just sacrifices some scapegoats and then just continues the same agenda.

Learner is a genius but brother I need 🐙-🐀 and certain sacrifices need to be made.

I was just watching an episode of WWII era British drama All Creatures Great & Small & found myself a little choked up at the depiction of Britons gladly hearing of Germany's surrender. I think my emotion came because those sacrifices people made then fighting fascism are once again facing us.

𝗩𝗜𝗕𝗘 𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗖𝗞: Neutral

Supreme Court acknowledges validity of jurisdiction stripping, Congress lacks precedent. WH statement acknowledges British military sacrifices.
January 25, 2026 at 8:00 AM
That’s really down to the PM. And I understand why the PM would do this. It’s a practical requirement for a head of state.

And, yes, the WH issued a statement that appears to recognize the sacrifices of the British military.

BUT!! This is no walk back. And if you think Trump has changed his

"Mothers and fathers buried sons and daughters. Children were left without a parent. Families are left carrying the cost.
"Those sacrifices deserve to be spoken about truthfully and with respect, as we all remain united and loyal to the defence of diplomacy and peace."

The US president's comments have been condemned by international allies, including UK veterans and politicians.

Somewhere, a rapist racist pedophile narcissist felon is cackling in glee, Big Mac in hand.....ketchup on face, diaper full of shit!!!

To those who've given everything:
Your efforts and sacrifices will never be forgotten ❤️
May you find rest and peace within the kingdom of heaven 🙏

Covid first responders have so much tappable anger because as a society we've done nothing to reckon with the risks, sacrifices, and senseless tragedies they faced. Their righteous anger is so potent because they've had years to distill it.

Yes, so many sacrifices. I have a few great uncles and a great aunt who served. Two of my cousins served in Afghanistan and other more recent wars. Luckily all of them came back home in one piece.
