meh, this forum is (hopefully) mostly unsusceptible to propaganda from trump of all people, and sometimes it's just good to see a dog
Not sure what there is to like about this tweet. Dogs are great, but using them in war is inhumane.
This forum clapped everytime Obama did a drone stike, you won't find any shortage of anti-Trump people who will gobble this type of military propaganda up.
War doggo so kawaii uwu
Yup yup. Dog's a hero, Trump can't claim credit for his actions.

did they? I feel like this is one of the few places I see Obama routinely called out for his drone strikes. Also, this forum didn't exist when he was president.
I really hope these reporters revealing the dog's name arent being idiots about this and got permission from very high up to reveal the name. Revealing a dogs name doesnt provide much public interest vs potential security threats, should there be any.
C'mon you already know the answer to this. They don't give a shit they just want to break the story
So he's only doing this because the person he is honoring can't physically speak out against him correct?
Not sure exactly how the dog's name would have been kept a secret if a photo of it came out. Which Trump himself decided to do.
Oh yeah, there was people to call him out.
Doesn't change what I said though.
You mean the dog that looks like hundreds of other military working dogs because they use mainly the one breed? It would be very hard to identify him from a picture.
If I remember correctly, LaPorta was one of the journalists holding onto the news about the raid as it happened. He sat on the news. He's also a former Marine veteran.
Good Doggie!
a broken clock can be right twice a day
on this, Trump is alright to troll ISIS
nothing gets them more riled up then women combatants defeating them on the battlefield, our dogs sniffing them out like vermin
I am okay, with Trump pissing on the dead leader of ISIS.
fuck ISIS

I feel deeply uncomfortable valorizing the conduct of an animal bred and trained to maul people on command, without any moral agency.
Are you Sarah Connor?You mean ISIS could start targeting all dogs named Conan?
Not at the dog, but I guess presumably fears that people would be able to track the unit he was attached to. I guess. Seems farfetched.
What do you mean? I'm sure if a Democrat posted the picture we'd be fine with it.
Imagine saying "dogs doing their jobs" with a serious face
The theory, as I understand it, is that all movements of special forces teams are secret because we don't want foreign governments to be able to track where they are and what they might be doing. It's not really about retaliation against the specific unit, it's just general practice to keep special forces information secret.
everyone knows its dog's place to kill and be killed for the pleasure of the human race, we totally love dogs so much, thats why we send them to war zones am I right guys? /s
Dogs hate this piece of shit bastard, and with good reason.
Best judges of character; better than humans. By a long shot.

100%. i'd bet this tweet is Miller's idea too, as a fuck you to all Muslims (even though of course not all Muslims dislike dogs, and most sure as hell didnt consider an ISIS leader to be a hero).
who believes anything Trump tweets anyway? or what the US Army says. Al-Baghdadi probably never saw a dog when he died.
I'm not going to pretend I know how any of this works with espionage and special forces, but I imagine it's a name that could possibly be tracked by a foreign government if the dog remains in service, and then you're tracking special forces themselves. Again, it may not work that way at all either. I'm never been an intelligent agent myself.
They IDed him with his underwear, a dog helped find him and then they burried him at sea.
Not one to be conspiratorially minded, but this whole story does make me chuckle a bit. Very Trump era news story.
good thing the US military has 100% accuracy rating in IDing terrorists
Some of y'all take your Trump hate to hilarious levels. Pissed over his dog tweet? Like c'mon and take a deep breath.
Also amusing in this thread that some people are incapable of understanding that particular breeds of dogs are good at particular jobs.
Obvious they've never been around a working dog a day in their lives.

Have you ever interacted with a German Shepherd? They quite literally go crazy and destructive if you don't give them a task.
I hope he gets bit.
Are you implying that I've only been around broken dogs?
Capitalism means even dogs can't escape the intractable pull of exploitation of their labour based on their breed lol
This world sucks so bad, we can't even do dogs without turning them into war tech.
Do the dogs in your neighborhood look as cool as this good boi? Then yes.
He chased the guy down a tunnel and he blew himself up. The dog was injured most likely by the blast or shrapnel.
This is quite a take.
Specifically speaking about dogs in the armed forces here, there are plenty of roles for canines that are utilized in non-combat roles for the military. S&R, detection etc. Certain breeds like Belgian Malinois', Labradors et al excel at the type of work they're tasked with.
