Iran

[EasternVol]

This is a blood libel. It’s that simple. If you don’t understand why, you don’t know the first thing about Jew hatred.
From a moderator no less.

That argument might hold some water had Israel not assassinated so many of Iran's leadership and said they would continue.

He’s lost Ann Coulter…

 

[DinkinFlicka]

Suggesting blatant war crimes. How the f*** are you going to blow up desalinization plants, i.e. civilians' source of water in a desert, and still have people like MAD posting 20 times a day about how we're doing this because we love the Iranian people so much

Probably because MAD is a mentally misguided keyboard zealot.

Did you try the new movies?

I didn't. My Daughter and her hubs are fan of the books. Didn't care for the movies.

...or vice versa

Plenty of nations have fallen even in the modern day. Why is this one special? Why do they require so much American blood and money? I think maybe it's time they stand on their own feet.

I’d be perfectly fine with that.

But you can’t howl for us to “do something” when Israel goes it alone.

The movies are good. Should give em a look.

Oh I wouldn't.

 

[General Jack]

I wish Melania or somebody could filter him. Too many unnecessary and dumb statements. Just say we are working on a compromise or deal. If he wants to say something in private to “motivate”, then keep it private.

Nah that's just trump being trump. Now maga starting to get a taste with his reckless malignant narcissism blowing back on them.

 

[85SugarVol]

Oh I wouldn't.

Ok

 

[MAD]

I can't wait for some of y’all to realize The Islamic Republic, Hezbollah, Houthis and Hamas are the bad guys.

Confirmed

Analysis: Iran likely transferred highly enriched uranium to Isfahan before the June strikes - Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists Analysis: Iran likely transferred highly enriched uranium to Isfahan before the June strikes

Looks like we still have work to do. If we cant destroy this underground complex with bunker busters, we may need to put boots on the ground long enough to destroy this place. 1000lbs+ of highly enriched weapons grade Uranium is not acceptable for Iran to have. Period.

Would you be OK if they drafted your son to go over there?

President Trump told aides he’s willing to end the U.S. military campaign against Iran even if the Strait of Hormuz remains largely closed, administration officials said, likely extending Tehran’s firm grip on the waterway and leaving a complex operation to reopen it for a later date.

Unlike George W. Bush ..... Trump doesn't have the wherewithal to see an unpopular mission through to it's desired conclusion. His ego won't let him ignore polling data.

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.

Agreed. On all points.

You know the actual answer.

Everyone with a functioning brain knows it would be an absolute meat grinder, and based on our "strategy" so far it seems our military is more interested in throwing everything over the wall rather than accomplishing any actual objective.

So again, you know the actual answer. Put boots on the ground, as long as it ain't me or mine!

 

[DuckInAPen]

. . . and based on our "strategy" so far it seems our military is more interested in throwing everything over the wall rather than accomplishing any actual objective . . .

The problem isn't our exemplary military, but a civilian leadership utterly without qualification, without scruple, and without any purpose other than self-aggrandizement.

[Vol737]

Great look. Not to mention the seething Iranian people we left with their false hope. Not our job, not our place, but you have to feel bad for them thinking a change could’ve been imminent.

 

[DuckInAPen]

Unfortunately, just leaving may be the best we can salvage at this point for ourselves and for the world. If the alternative is a protracted ground war with no well-defined, achievable, and moral objective, sign me up for just leaving. [EDIT: All the more as we have - and will have - no congressional declaration of war.]

Outside of an invasion of North America there will never be another draft.

There was one?

 

[hog88]

There was one?

There’s been several times conscription has been used in the US and each time it‘s been used it has become more unpopular and discriminatory. It won’t happen again outside of an invasion of North America
