Trump says he bombed Iran

[Creaky]

Who are you talking about?

For the record this administration has fired a lot of corrupt people, Generals, FBI, DOJ, DHS, EPA,  Dept of Health, DOT, DOE, etc have been somewhat cleaned out.  Not to mention all the fraud he’s exposed.

That’s pretty fair but, seems little justice has been carried out in the courts

I disagree, justice has been served relating to Trump's blatant disregard of constitutional rights.

"“The Trump administration’s recent court losses illustrate that there is still much that the other branches of government can do — in connection with civil society — to uphold the rule of law and mitigate the harms of the administration’s destructive agenda,” said Monika Langarica, deputy legal director at the Center for Human Rights and Constitutional Law."
“They are one more reminder,” she added, “that the administration will not always have the last word with respect to its unlawful and unconstitutional actions.”"

The next step? Drag Trump and his co-conspirators to the court of world justice for war crimes.

If a US battleship sinks an oil tanker on its way to China, I don't see China having a problem in the world knowing it was them that sank the US battleship in return.

If a US battleship sank anything  that would be pretty impressive  seeing as the US doesn't  have battleships anymore, no country  has.

Thats true.

But Trump's bringing them back...

Even though naval experts and defense analysts describe the design as being "strategically flawed, technologically impractical, and an outdated concept for modern warfare."

It appears the war machine and warmongering are to be USA's unwavering political direction where an ideology of a peaceful planet isn't profitable remains constant.

A battleship with no heavy armour, a railgun, and high-powered lasers as a central component of its defence systems, yet no nuclear reactor.

I'm apt to ponder it will be a damp squib, never mind a waste of time, money, and resources, that could be far better spent elsewhere...

If a country relies on it's war machine industry to keep it afloat that will always be where the people's money will be spent until the people rise up and make changes.

I'm wondering how easy it would be for 21st century drone technology to disable it, considering what damage they do to tanks.

I suppose that would depend on how large the swarm attack is and the type of drones being used.

At the end of the day, a slow-moving massive target is going to be vulnerable.

Just down to the nature of the beast in question.

James O'Brien take on the ongoing war...

Rumor has it that China and/or North Korea has supplied Iran with nuclear ICBMs, but nobody knows for sure.

Does it stand to reason this would be the next step within the escalation of this war?

"U.S. Intelligence Shows China Taking a More Active Role in Iran War

China may have shipped missiles to Iran, and Beijing is allowing some companies to sell Tehran supplies that can be used in military production, American officials said." (NY Times)

"The U.S. Treasury has identified Bank Sepah as the financial hub for Iran's missile procurement network, facilitating purchases from China and North Korea. 

• Chinese President Xi Jinping has met with Iranian leadership, and sanctioned vessels have been tracked moving materials between China and Iran, but these shipments are not confirmed to be complete nuclear ICBMs" (LLM)
