Trump planned to strike civilian infrastructure

So what?

 

[sonofUT62]

So Trumps ****ed up so bad that we’re digging up news clips from the Butch Jones era??

 

[utvolpj]

He’s proving that your post was dumb.

How? Do the rules exist or not? Did Trump plan to violate them or not? I answered the question posed

 

[volfanhill]

And we have the fall guy for the BS cease fire

 

[utvolpj]

So what?

Some people care about other humans being slaughtered by govt. I know, you're the other guy

Trump essentially claimed he would wipe them off the map. Is that now a positive phrase?

I agree that in a total war situation, calling out war crimes is a pointless exercise. However we aren't in total war with Iran, they pose no threat to the USA at home, and one of our goals was supposedly to help the Iranian people. Not sure how "destroying their entire civilization" and all of their means to produce electricity to live off of was going to accomplish that.

When the other side is stockpiling weapons grade fissile material, “total” war is exactly what is called for, at least in my opinion. Especially when that opponent has been engaged in a shadow proxy was against the entire West for almost five decades.
If you are going to fight, you fight. Going into battle with one hand tied behind your back gets you a Vietnam

Regime change? News to me and the Iranian citizens.

The President said directly to the Iranian people and the world that we were providing them an opportunity to overthrow the regime and get their freedom.

Don’t get emotional, be sure to adhere to the speed limit on your way home today too.

Which quotes from Trump are the Iranians or the Americans supposed to believe? Why would anyone believe a thing that comes out of his mouth. Shall I provide for you a list of his lies and contradictions since this started?

Why do you all think human lives are comparable to speeding? That's the second time the idiotic comparison was made today

I too would love to see televised Senate hearings. Probably not for the same reason that Lindsey would.

But Trump is king TACO.

Hasn't happened.

Pretty sure it's has some form of gun control though. Only the military and cops have them.

But that's a good thing, right?

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

Hasn't happened.

Unfortunately

Do you think the Iranian (or any other countries) electric grid is separated military/civilian? You hit a power plant it shuts off electricity to civilians and military targets.

But but but that's illegal

But Trump is king TACO.

He threatened war crimes against Iran and then gave into their demand. Do you think bombing them to the stone age would make us safer?

Oh, the dual use policy.

Believe whichever you want. If you were in Iranian leadership, and Trump has already killed 50 of your predecessors in about a month, which one do you want to believe? If you are only a keyboard warrior on VN that has the luxury of hindsight and no real skin in the game, you might believe something else. It's up to you. Thing is... it worked for now.

LOL

War crimes.

It is pretty difficult to start and uprising when you have an armed guard in your house. The IRGC folds and it will happen.
