Iran

Some on here gaslight, they don’t care about facts.

Yeah you should probably stay away from throwing those flavor of rocks.

when did the Nazis use the panzers specifically against Jews?

not questioning the Holocaust, I just haven't heard of the Germans using actual tanks against the Jews.

and he really needs to look up the word "panzer" because it doesn't not refer to A tank. not even one type/model of tank. its literally just the German word for tank. even things like the Panther (PANZERkampfwagen 5) Tiger (PANZERkampfwagen VI), King Tiger (PANZERkampfwagen VII), and Maus (PANZERkampfwagen VIII) were all officially designated as Panzers, as well as meeting the generic form of panzer as "tank".

I think the Warsaw Ghetto uprising, maybe others.

Trump puts some true idiots up for confirmation. No doubt about that. That's not news. See Matt Gaetz...John Bolton

True, but you can't now be surprised that he's somewhat of an antisemite given his history and the concerns people expressed when he was first nominated.

Prior to breaking with Trump on Iran, him being affiliated with Nick Fuentes, Greyson Arnold, and the Proud Boys wasn't an issue for the administration, or Congressional Republicans.

This Iran WAR has really been illuminating on who in the Republican party is an antisemite. Sunlight can be an effective disinfectant. Let's not kid ourselves. These Republicans speaking out against this war aren't largely doing so for pacifist or fiscal reasons. Many of these folks are taking this stand for antisemitic reasons. We saw this in the leadup to WW II. Nazi sympathizers were often taking that position for antisemitic reasons. I think it's good for the Republican party to get these antisemites out

What’s antisemitic about opposing a war that’s against our interests?

Nothing if that's your true motivation. Many are saying that in order to hide their true antisemitic motivations. I think this guy who just resigned is one of those people

I'm probably just an idiot but how are you drawing this connection? I just want to see the logic path here, because right now what you're telling me is that people don't want to fight Iran because they hate Jews, and I just can't draw that as simply as you are.

I think it's only illuminating for people who've plead ignorance in the past, while quietly accepting the support of the same groups.

I'm not asking about this guy, nor do I particularly care about him because he's no longer in any position whatsoever. You made a very general statement. I'm asking about all the other republicans you called out.

Your self awareness is at negative levels. Amazing

Is Trump dumber than Biden. We we told he was perfectly fine and y'all regurgitated it. Now you act like you are so wise and connoisseurs of competency, what a joke.

So anyone who believes Trump isn't very smart was automatically supporting Biden and his mental state? That is quite the leap

The only other one I mentioned was Tucker Carlson.

Ok, some are attractive. At least they have that doing for them and in hope they get paid for posting. Feel sorry for anyone carrying that much water for free

We have a Marine force headed to the Persian Gulf, probably to Kharg Island. The US will choke Iran's oil supply, which runs through Kharg Island. The Admiral says that our Marines are very good at taking and holding islands.

Oh yeah. The Iranians would never suspect that the United States might attack its most important economic location.

 

[Ashevolle]

Are we capable of producing enough to be self-reliant?

I'm not an oil expert, but I think doing so would require a concerted push towards alternative energy sources. We are growing our oil dependence while at the same time approaching our maximum output of production. So, it doesn't look like we can meet our current needs at our current consumption levels longterm. If we worked to not rely so much on oil and diversify with other energy sources, then probably.

Correct. I did not name any other Republicans so what question do you want me to answer?

No where did he indicate how Iran posed an imminent thread to the US. They're dancing around because they know that's true

fair point.
