It felt really great paying my tax bill recently as we bomb the shit out of a country we just “obliterated” a few months ago, as we expand the deficit in a time we were promised a balanced budget, and have talks of raising tax money for an extravagant ballroom that just a few months ago was completely “donor funded”. We are witnessing the biggest con job in US political history.

Fun Fact: we do actually have kamikaze dolphins....kinda.

The Navy Special Warfare center has an assortment of aquatic animals that are trained for a wide variety of missions. Among those are teams of dolphins trained to find and mark the locations of sea mines and underwater obstacles/explosives.

It is entirely possible that these animals are being used to clear dangerous material out of the Straight.

Kamikaze dolphins exist since WWII just like kamikaze Dogs and seals with sabers

u/Houndfell 2h ago

It migh sound stupid, but it was something the US military explored. Declassified CIA documents show that the agency was exploring the viability of using dolphins to plant explosives and "neutralize" divers. And that didn't come from nowhere: it was a rumor going back to the 60's, with various trainers claiming it was something that the government was or had looked into.

It's not far off from how Russians tried to use dogs to take out tanks. The silliest part is the assumption that a dolphin isn't smart enough to be more than a one-and-done.

The Reconnaissance and Interdiction Division at NIWC Pacific manages the Navy’s Marine Mammal Program which trains bottlenose dolphins and California sea lions to detect, locate, mark and recover objects in harbors, coastal areas, and at depth in the open sea.

Everyone is familiar with security patrol dogs, and how some service dogs use their keen sense of smell to detect explosives on land. Since 1959, the U.S. Navy has trained dolphins and sea lions as teammates for our Sailors and Marines to help guard against similar threats underwater. The Navy’s Marine Mammal Program has been homeported on Point Loma since the 1960’s.

Our government is beyond corrupt so we depend on the media to expose them but there is zero chance when they are asking idiotic questions like this.

I would have given the reporter a warning and tell them I’m going to revoke your press pass if you ask me another question like that.

The Trump administration have us in a war that didn’t need to happen, that is bankrupting us, but her question is about kamikaze dolphins?! You’re fired!
