Iran

[GroverCleveland]

Hmmm... Assuming no regime change, what's to prevent Iran from now building a nuclear facility a mile underground - beyond the reach of our bunker busters? What's going to stop them from now enriching all the Uranium that they likely moved?

You want to put American boots on the ground next to stop Iran from obtaining nukes?

Have you paused to actually think this whole thing through?

Nope.

This wasn't Pearl Harbor and Iran is not the United States.

A lot of Iranians will die. Fine. That’s a given.

No. Not fine. Not fine at all. Terrible, awful, horrible. Worst of all, if a lot of Iranians die, it will be because of the consequences of decisions made by leaders many, maybe most, Iranians do not support.

Whatever happens, I hope it ends this war quickly, and before many innocents die.

But how many American lives and resources are we about to lose because we let a rogue ally drag us into a full-blown war, one they probably couldn’t win without us, and based on no solid evidence?

The biggest problem with this is that the “solid evidence” is often only obtained after the bad result is final. Once they have a bomb, it is too late to take these kinds of actions.

Trump announces an address to the nation. It starts almost exactly one time. Biden schedules a statement, he MIGHT show up in 30 minutes if we were lucky

True.

But wars are easy to get into... Do we really know how Iran will respond now? Trump obviously wants it to be done, but will it be?

He campaigned on the promise of not getting entangled in foreign wars, yet that's precisely what he may have done here.

I'm hoping for the best, but this is no small event.

Why do you believe Iran has the capability to respond in any significant way?

Never could tell when the amphetamines were gonna kick in for him.

 

[GroverCleveland]

Im agreeing with his sentiment that there is now an opportunity for a negotiated deal on peace with Iran and Israel. Time will tell.

Agreed. Hopeful. Up to the Iranians now.

I think the only thing we can say with certainty is if the Islamic republic and Khamenei stays in power then they most definitely will make it their goal to make US and Israel’s life a living hell

 

[Persian Vol]

Why is this turning into an Oscar acceptance speech

 

[Vol8188]

Correct.

Dumb

Trump daring Iran to keep ****ing around.

A leader with balls.

 

[Dergibvol]

Hmmm another war started. Trump is Bush 3.0.

Which is different from that last four decades how, exactly?

 

[GroverCleveland]

if Congress is just approving action within certain limits then trust isn't an issue.

I honestly do not believe Trump could have consulted with any Democratic leader before this and not have it blabbed about.

It can get real spicy if we were to... *ahem* cut off Iran's ability to ship oil. There's a large country over there that relies on it a la Japan prior to WWII.....

 

[Vol8188]

Did we tuck our tails when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

You’re ignoring the power imbalance here

You do realize he’s a liar and this is world war 3 right?..mark my words next presidential election it will go democrat…this man campaigned on “peace”..we want peace and have a big mess at home the previous administration caused..the last thing we need is another war..the MAGA movement is tarnished..

Keeping FA.... they'll FO.

This ain't the mamby pamby land of Biden and Obama

What do you mean by happy? Why would i be happy or pissed or have any strong feelings about it. Looks to me like the Iranian leadership FAFO.

I do find it amusing that someone like you was running with that TACO crap. If one thing has been demonstrated over and over again, it's that Trump's enemies have absolutely no understanding of him.

Well? Cat got your tongue?

Do you support this bombing? Yes or no will suffice.
