Iran

[sonofUT62]

They don’t have nukes because we bombed them now and in June last summer

According to US intelligence and the best and brightest of the administration. You asked me if I wanted them to have them and I’ve endeavored to answer your question. Now I’m off to a parent teacher conference with the ex Mrs SonofUT62.

Trump crapped all over the toilet seat and now wants others to clean up the mess.

 

[Redleg68]

They can still mine the Strait and fire missiles at oil tankers. This doesn't involve a Navy

I believed that they still may have some of those small mine laying submarines and also have a small complement of torpedos.

He started off saying we would open it quickly, could do it in a few seconds, Strait of Trump, and then a couple days went by without much progress and now suddenly it's not our responsibility lol

People here were saying this was an Iranian missile, smh

 

[85SugarVol]

I'm all for him pulling out ASAP. However he just made everything worse. No regime change. Just one that's even more convinced it needs a nuke. And a new source of revenue for the regime that will drive oil prices up.

Ain’t that the sad truth…

All he’s accomplished is pushing Iran to the point where they proved that yes, they were capable of pretty much closing off the strait.

And now, they’ll make us pay to use it going forward.

 

[utvolpj]

It was already open without a fight

 

[Orangeslice13]

according to Trump they started this war with our Tomahawks. so maybe he was playing some of that 4D chess already.

Not likely. I just think if we’re going to waste this much money, maybe this time we leave it for the people who might use it to help themselves by overthrowing their oppressors.

It never seems to work out when we try to tell them what they want and then force it on them

 

[Orangeslice13]

How are the mines put in place with no navy?

I set fish trees with a Jon boat. Gotta be the same kinda thing

Words are important and I didn’t ask if you wanted Iran to have them. My question was framed “is it unacceptable for Iran to acquire nukes”? Most of the world agrees that it’s not. You mentioned Saudi. They’ve said if Iran gets them then they will get them too

Can we believe the intelligence that states Iran was very close? Good question. I will say that Mossad intelligence has been very accurate in this war. They seem to know where every Iranian leader is. I have a lot of confidence in their intelligence

We and/or Israel has been claiming Iran was "very close" for 40+ years. We said we set them back by "years, I repeat, years" in June 2025

IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir: “I can say here that the assessment is that we significantly damaged the nuclear program, and I can also say that we set it back by years, I repeat, years.”

This missile hit a(nother) elementary school and sports hall, killing 21

Doesn't seem like a great way to go out

When doing the right thing, never listen to the haters.

Iran is weaker than ever. Israel is stronger than ever

 

[BeardedVol]

So we've come full circle back to fearmongering to try to drum up support for US adventurism in the Middle-East?

 

[Sea Ray]

I would venture a guess that that assessment changed. This happens. I can’t imagine that either Israel or our country would want to start such an undertaking unless they felt the threat was imminent

Huh? Israel has transparently wanted to do this forever, which is why Netanyahu has been claiming Iran is weeks away from nukes since at least the '90s. They don't even have to send troops because we'll do it for them.

I have zero interest when it comes to Israeli intelligence/CIA

It was already open without a fight

And at one time, Russia was not in the Donbas region.

Seems like either that the assessment in 2025 was wrong, or that the assessment now is wrong.

 

[vols40]

And at one time, Russia was not in the Donbas region.

But Russian speaking citizens who are more sympathetic to Russia than Ukraine were

 

[LouderVol]

So if you’re keeping score at home
-Trump made Biden **** up the Afghanistan withdrawal
And
-the Jews made Trump attack Iran.

How did we elect such weak ass ****** leaders

because we are more worried about making sure the other side DOESN'T win than we care about actually electing qualified individuals.

I won't stretch that beyond "qualified". we aren't even to the level of "good candidates", or worrying about what type of human they are, or if we should actually want them in office, or even if we align with a good majority of their stances.

 

[LouderVol]

Lol still can't remember who was president in 2020, can you?
View attachment 823247

you realise Trump's terrible plan had us pulling out May 1st 2021. but Biden actually pulled us out 3 months later at the end of August. and considering they had all of 2021 to actually handle the plan, I am struggling to see how the actual pull out is on Trump.

were previous parts and pieces of the Afghan mess up on Trump? Yes. The pullout? Doesn't really make sense. Biden clearly edited it, so it seems like it his issue.

Those soccer players are in for a rude awakening next time they play in front of the home crowd. Don't they know America's actions are super popular among Iranians?

These idiots will tell you out of one side of their mouth how great our intel is then out of the other how corrupt and deep-state evil they are (53 intel agency letter, Russiagate, etc.). The problem is they are actually stupid enough to think that because big boy orange guy is president suddenly the intel is valuable and true.

Nevermind the very open, very public recent fractures, either. This action against Iran was idiotic from day 1 and has achieved literally nothing but exposing the morons in our country that should lose their right to vote and procreate.
