Iran

Going for gold in mental gymnastics

Requirement for maga.

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

I didn't hear any of them out there saying anything.

 

[CobbVol]

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

Like I said the other day, the death and destruction that Iran has caused to Americans and others over the last 5 decades to date is imminent.

Plenty of people did in this forum

50 years is the exact opposite of imminent

Why doesnt Trump call up his Trumptilla to come help at the strait??

Not sure they'd make it very far... a bunch of them sank in Lake Travis a while back.

I just checked your Politics forum posting history, and the only thread you ever posted in before 2026 is a thread that was split over here from the recruiting forum.

You're acting like you were here and didn't see nothing. You weren't here.

Did you look out do you just assume anyone calling Trump stupid is from the left and supported Biden? Because that's a really lazy take

 

[ButchPlz]

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

...alright, so you felt the need to make a broad comment about "antisemitic Republicans" over two people then, got it. Really making an impact there, chief.

Iran confirms security chief Larijani killed as Israel hits more top leaders

Israel killed top Iranian security official Ali Larijani in an overnight strike, as Israel continues to hit Iran's leaders.

apnews.com

https://www.iranintl.com/en/202603177961

"Larijani’s removal would introduce immediate disruption: friction in command and pressure for retaliation. The deeper consequence may be fragmentation.

The Islamic Republic now operates less as a unified state than as a dispersed system under sustained pressure from Israel and the United States. Authority increasingly runs through provincial clerical networks, IRGC commanders and Basij structures. Resources are mobilized locally, repression enforced locally and survival managed locally.

Larijani belonged to the shrinking circle still capable of linking these fragments to a central command. His loss risks accelerating the incoherence the system is already struggling to contain.

Soleimani’s precedent is instructive: decapitation weakens coordination and invites miscalculation, even as the structure endures.

Missile infrastructure remains dispersed across hardened and subterranean sites. Fast naval craft and unmanned vessels continue to threaten shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. Proxy militias operate through channels designed to outlast leadership losses.

What appears as resilience may instead reflect dispersal without coordination — a system that survives but no longer acts as one.

Larijani’s killing tests not only the state’s durability but its capacity to function as a coherent force under sustained pressure. The war may not bring immediate collapse. But without figures such as Soleimani and Larijani, adaptation may hasten, rather than forestall, its demise."

Is this how literally any other campaign where we cut off the head and left a radical body went? You don't even have to think that hard to see how this is a problem.

Correct, it is ongoing. The correct terms should be current or latest versus imminent.

 

[Ashevolle]

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

Joe Kent? Yeah, he's an absolute loon and I wouldn't assume any position of his to be benevolent as a default position.

Chief is not going to take the here just for you and document each and every Republican who’s antisemitic. Glad you got it

Alright, but again, trying to decipher through a bunch of language that doesn't add up, we get back to my first question. How are you "documenting" who is and isn't? I never asked you for all of them. I asked how you made the leap between not supporting war with Iran and hating Jews.

I wasn't talking about this forum specifically, but generally I really didn't hear a peep before the debate after it couldn't be covered up any more and and defenders started changing their tune and some wrote books. After that libs have zero credibility for ever. In my mind it was worse than the climate change hoax, the trans crap, and all the other lies they peddle because it really put our country in peril. They are wrong on very issue and the Biden cover up shows that their agenda is more important than the country.

That has always been the problem with the notion of regime change when it came to Iran.

This isn't a situation where the underlying problem is a corrupt government of a dozen people. Iran is both populated by and governed by Islamic extremists. Even if you go after the leadership, you don't have Islamic clerics suddenly turn nice to everyone else.

No matter how many of the Iranian leaders the US and Israel manage to kill off, the millions who hate us (and maybe moreso after this) are still there and there are thousands of "next man up" leaders to take their place.

Even if we degrade their traditional military capabilities, we leave behind the millions of extremists who aren't changing their way of life because we open the way for some McDonalds' franchisees to move in to moderate neighborhoods.

No, I know that there are Rinos who are subversives. If ;you are against us fighting against our enemies and threats to security, that is a bigger problem than the flaming libs. At least we can spot the looney left right away, the enemy within is much more destructive.

 

[MAD]

Try this? They're both ancient, inept dipshits. And now we got people like you, who called out Biden and not Trump, acting like the people who bashed both are the hypocrites.

I missed your comment on the reported hospital bombing killing 400 yesterday.

The country is only around 30-40% Muslim with over 70% of the country preferring separation of church and state.

It’s not as full of Islamic extremists as you’ve been lead to believe

Being against needless foreign wars is now subversive? Wtf

And they told me it would never get to this point...

Missed your comment about Israel flattening a Christian neighborhood in Lebanon. Also waiting for your comment on them using cluster ammunition after you called out Iran for the same thing multiple times

Bro, everybody knows what you're doing.
