Trump says he bombed Iran

[Kwaka]

Things have been heating up in Lebanon. Hezbollah is growing, went from 80 attacks yesterday to 87 today. Israel has blown up bridges in the region as a defensive move.

There has been more social media videos of damage in Israel getting out. Policy change or failing censorship infrastructure?

America has one Aircraft carrier out of action so far. A few of its planes have been getting heat. Boots on the ground going in. Next deadline for Energy assault approaching. Feeling like it is going to be a crazy weekend.

Just like 'publicly' waging war, even talking about war...

Is like setting leaves on fire in a forest.

For now we contort, prod and poke, in support of those things we see as reasonable, while attacking in dissent any utterances to the contrary... for fun. 

The give and take is another dimension of competition.  Further complicated by virtue signaling and mass media amplifications, once again, for entertainment.

You ever wonder why you can't really have this kind of exchange, face to face?  Because it seems that personal respect used to be human "currency. (Many debates could follow.)

The only reason I see, is not killing and hurting other people.  Not "making them suffer" for the things their leader's actually 'represent' (as opposed to what "they say" they represent.)

In the end, most mouthpieces "say" they don't want war... 
but every perception I register tells me that for them, this "is their virtue moment."

The profession media productions run fat with talking heads... all "loosely" associated... former "this," chair person of "that," advocate for "the other"... added to it, the voices of entertainment professionals... so we can all know what 'they" think.

It's alchemy I tells ya, 
how most are "told" all about complicated things...
like why someone's cousin has to die thousands of miles away,
effectively, only for the combine, in the end... for only they ever (with political investment) "win-win."

I don't want war, but just because I don't want war doesn't mean I can't rationalize potential positive outcomes and get behind our servicemen and women. Im weird like that







The sheer fact that Uncle Sam has isolated them and the majority of the Middle East are real potential allies is a game changer we've never had in my lifetime

[Kwaka]

Who am I to deny 90 million Iranians just a chance at a less oppressive life, 

It does sound nice. Looking at the fate of Gaza does not inspire hope.

"Trump says US will be Iran's worst nightmare if it doesn't agree to peace plan."

Talk about stating the obvious.

There is also a modicum of projection in there, methinks.

After all, there is a reason the 82nd Airborne has arrived...

[Vermilion]

Yeah, it's a secret RazorV66.

He can't tell us about it.

Same as his prize...

All those troops and the 82nd Airborne are not there for a picnic, put it that way.

If there is no ground invasion, I'll be rather surprised.

LMFAO! President Trump's response to this reporter is PERFECT

"Are you going to go in for the uranium?"

TRUMP: *Sighs and shakes his head*

REPORTER: "Like, how do you secure Iran and—"

TRUMP: "Let's assume I was or I wasn't. WHY would I EVER answer a question?! What kind of a question? Am I going to go in for the — Oh, yeah, I'm going in. We're going in tomorrow at 3 o'clock!"

LoL

I'll be rather surprised if they even know where all the uranium is after all this time.

Keeping in mind that there was that big line of trucks...

Yeah thats false equivalency, but you know that, run it through AI if you need a refresher course... applying simple logic to complex situations never realizes all the variables and nuances

Again, Iran can go south but if it does it isn't going to be like Gaza in any way, shape, or form.

#1 If Iran did a 10/7 type attack on the US, Tehran would be glass before you could say Allah Snackbar

#2 Gaza doesn't have the numbers to overthrow Hamas, whereas Iran, by its sheer population, potentially does

#3 Gaza isn't attacking the rest of the Middle East, Iran has

[IDELB2006]

Yeah, it's a secret RazorV66.

He can't tell us about it.

Same as his prize...

Trump finally revealed the secret prize. He gets 10 boat rides through the Strait of Hormuz.

I wish I was joking.

[Kwaka]

Yeah thats false equivalency, but you know that,

No. It is part of the conflict resolution process in seeing the conflict from both sides. If I was living in Iran, the idea of Israel's setter program moving in don't look good.

Sure Iran has problems, all nations do. Does appear to be some gradual improvements going on when things where more civil. Now it comes down to violence to sort this war out one way or another. Time will tell.
