US-Iran War Mudpit Thread

[pianopraze]

Update:

Trump says it’s over: Ben Swann Twitter great guy, used to be on ATS.

CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE! It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be a Complete and Total CEASEFIRE (in approximately 6 hours from now, when Israel and Iran have wound down and completed their in progress, final missions!), for 12 hours, at which point the War will be considered, ENDED! Officially, Iran will start the CEASEFIRE and, upon the 12th Hour, Israel will start the CEASEFIRE and, upon the 24th Hour, an Official END to THE 12 DAY WAR will be saluted by the World. During each CEASEFIRE,
the other side will remain PEACEFUL and RESPECTFUL. On the assumption that everything works as it should, which it will, I would like to congratulate both Countries, Israel and Iran, on having the Stamina, Courage, and Intelligence to end, what should be called, "THE 12 DAY WAR." This is a War that could have gone on for years, and destroyed the entire Middle East, but it didn't, and never will! God bless Israel, God bless Iran, God bless the Middle East, God bless the United States of
America, and GOD BLESS THE WORLD!
DONALD J. TRUMP,
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

US President Trump to NBC: “The war is COMPLETELY over, and I don’t believe Israel and Iran will exchange fire again...” It would have brought the whole Middle East down. It’s a wonderful day for the world, in my opinion. #IranIsraelConflict #Trump

This is what you get when there is a real president in charge, not some unelected, propped up puppet that doesn't even know when he is shitting himself. 

Kamala Harris couldn't have pulled 1/1000th of this off on her best day, thank God we dodged that nightmare. 

Now we got those born losers crying impeachment for the millionth time.
I hope they keep it up so they will never win another presidential election again because real American citizens are tired of their bullshit.

Not to look a gift horse in the mouth, but...


A "Cease-fire"?   Why?  Something just doesn't add up.


Israel launches an attack on Iran, in essence to put and end to Iran's sponsorship of attacks on Israel. OK, makes sense.

Israel claims that Iran is very close to building nuclear weapons (although offers no proof, and the? claim is refuted by international experts...and US intelligence agencies). Fear of an "Islamic nuke" in the hands of Iran then becomes Israel's "raison d'etre" to pressure the US into a direct attack of its own against Iran (despite the fact that another Islamic country, Pakistan, already has nuclear weapons, and the missiles to deliver them, but is not seen as an "immanent threat".


The US enters the fray with the sole (stated) purpose of destroying Iran's nuclear facilities, and its presumed supply of enriched (but not yet "bomb-grade") uranium, thus ending, or at least delaying for an extended period of time, Iran's feared ability to develop and build nuclear weapons. 

But reports, and statements, including from the US VP himself, are that although damaged, at least one of Iran's nuclear facilities is still largely intact, and Iran still has control over its enriched uranium stockpile. 

So US/Israel mission largely not accomplished, right?

Why would now be the time for a Cease-fire?


Or was this about a "regime change" in Iran all along?  

Have we been mislead, and lied to, yet again?


And can a "regime change" forced at the "point of a gun" be trusted to last?

Be trusted not to develop the means to defend itself against the next time a regime change sentiment arises?

Some of the biggest disastrous failures in History have been because of over thinking and misinterpreted strategy.

As in Kabuki theater, probably...

Who is the director and producer...

clue in us monkeys to your wisdom...

Deny Ignorance is long format for a reason; it even has emojis, so all of us monkeys can communicate in sign language to the elitist intelligentsia that also lurks on the board.
