I mean if we go by modern standards like the UN conventions on human rights or for that matter the Geneva Convention.
Then, eternal punishment, torture, or collective suffering, would clearly violate rules against cruel and unusual punishment.
Would it not?
If you create hell on Earth for 90 million Iranians, out of spite because they refuse to capitulate, by destroying there power grids and depriving them of food and water, history will record you the same way it did Hitler's Germany.
Thats what happens when you systematically choose to annihilate millions of people.
Might be best to choose another path forward...
Oh boy...more Hitler and Nazi analogies.
How is this military operation annihilating millions of people?

We cannot stop the war, or Iran wins.
What don't you get?
I actually recognise the predicament.
But you also can't help annihilate and destroy 90 million people by taking out their infrastructure, power grids, and desanitization plants.
It's Biblical, and if that's the case, who does that make the man?
Because we both know it's not the dude that walks on water or turns the other cheek.
This has to end some other way...

People who claimed to be anti war, anti open enriching themselves from the office, drain the swamp, end corruption, reduce the debt are now completely fine with the opposite of all of that out in the open.
You’re saying those people will accuse me of being left wing because I didn’t toe a line?
I don’t know man, it just doesn’t feel like a hit. Sounds like I kept my same beliefs and a whole bunch of other people changed theirs.

If it quacks like a duck and Trump is directly responsible for the death of millions of Iranians.
It's a war, not a military operation, if in doubt, ask Iran.
Or your POTUS when he forgets and the tune changes...
As to how, well if Trump makes good on his promises, im sure you will see how rather fast.
From a safe distance on TV, just like me, at least for a little while.
But what do you imagine will be in the post?

The worst part about wartime MAGA is seeing all of the blood thirsty warmongers larp as patriots when it is in fact they who are responsible for the current collapse of the USA and the West at large
Last 20 wars have all been net negatives but you're somehow a traitor for saying this one's a bad idea
Pure fiction.
You should publish some of that, make some money.

And don't forget, while we're using the old "way back machine" that, as I suggested when that smoke detector quip was first posited, that China makes a large percentage of the world's smoke detectors..
The same China that has a "deal" in place to receive Iranian oil with safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz.
If the US supports the Iranian "people" in their struggle to throw off the oppressive regime keeping them prisoners,
How will depriving those same people of water and power, as summer approaches, in any way help them fight that same regime?
Rather than aiding and supporting them, Trump's Stated" plan will only serve to make their lives, those who survive, more difficult.
And they will remember, and resent, the US because of it.
Thus, the cycle perpetuates, and we help build the next generation of terrorist hate.
Trump doesn't care, he won't be here to pick up the pieces or experience the acts of terrorism to come...
