Her words were: "The IC continues to assess that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon and Supreme Leader Khamenei has not authorized the nuclear weapons program that he suspended in 2003. The IC continues to monitor, closely, if Tehran decides to reauthorize its nuclear weapons program." She then went on with the complementary information about enrichment levels and Iranian discussions or nuclear weapons.

That's just like, her opinion man (apparently).

Nice to see Israel holding up their end of the deal.

I think we have 4 scenarios related to our wager:
. 1. Trump talks a big game about not leaving and does not leave. 2. He talks big but leaves. 3. He doesn't talk (or not much) and doesn't leave. 4. He doesn't talk and does leave.

I am betting on 2 and 4. You would be betting on 1 and 3. Is that fair to you?

I'm kind of partial to St Jude's, so why not make it both?

How about a poll setup and those on the losing side are honor bound to donate to St Jude or somewhere with receipts blacked out but posted.

No banning but those who don't pay up risk getting the ignore button from a lot of people.

Trump's foreign policy has been: we aren't the world's policeman.

He did great. We went in, used our exclusive ability to take out or try to take out a bunch of centrifuges. It was our mission and it was very limited, as our missions should be around the world.

Now get out. Shut up. Move on. If they continue fighting, it's not our problem. If they can achieve a ceasefire for awhile, great. If they break it, it's not the first nor last BUT we did our part, now let them decide what comes of it.

Our limited mission was destroy the centrifuges Israel couldn't take out. After that STFU. We aren't the world's policeman.

Did we go to war or enter WW3 when Obama was bombing children in Pakistan?

it would be one thing if the missile strikes were like the Iranian ones that hit bare dirt somewhere just for effect. but when you are killing a foreign national in their own nation, and not after a trial and sentencing, and its done by the military, on orders from the CiC, thats war. We have just gotten too used to the political BS. I remember when this board condemned those Obama bombings, but now you have drank the Orange kool-aid and lost any consistency you might have ever had.

Another nation does the exact same thing to the US, and you guys would be up in arms about being attacked, that nation declaring war on us thru its actions.

Donald Trump is a canvas onto which people either project their most irrational hopes or their darkest fears.
In reality, he is a human being wich means he is a complex mixture of contradictory qualities, strengths and weaknesses, just like the rest of us. The one characteristic which makes him so unique is that he just really doesn’t seem to care what anyone thinks of him.
The dysfunctional nature of the two party system over the last 30 or so years made a Donald Trump inevitable. The real question is do we grow out of our national sickness enough to not get another one? I am not seeing much ground for hope on that front.

The only thing I would knit-pick is that I believe he cares a whole lot about what people think of him.
