US-Iran War Mudpit Thread

[cherokeetroy]

He's bloviating.
Yes, It started 47 years ago.
Was started by Iran.
Was continued by Iran.
Was made worse by Obama giving them $$ and Biden being Biden.
But they didn't start it.

It's amazing that the US allowed this looming existential threat to hang over our heads for 50 years

Even openly advocating against direct conflict with Iran when the opportunity to nip this whole thing in the bud was an option

The fact that Trump had to start the third week of this non-war by trying to disparage European countries not on-board with sorting out the Strait of Hormuz after months of disparaging and bullying them on the international stage for one reason or another is just something else.

This besides of course telling the world that Iran is already won. When it clearly has the upper-hand at the moment.

No. I’m not cheering for Iran here. But those like myself that enjoy facts winning out over blind flag-waving adventures in mass murder must find this delicious.

Truly scrumptious indeed.

I know I do.

I would assume he’s talking about the funding those two clowns gave Iran which they used to further their nuclear ambitions and funded their proxy wars.  

Definitely a poorly worded post.  Although, I think it’s pretty obvious what he’s talking about.

What's obvious is you guys are all over the place

and that's probably because this excursion really isn't about nukes

  It's not the United States job to take care of the world.
If other countries thought it was a threat, they could have taken care of it too, ya' know.
Not just wait for us to spend our money and blood on it.

So now you are in favor of preemptive strikes?

I thought I was clear?  Murderous evil regimes.  That have nukes and the means to deliver them?

My point was…..none of them have made it personal and murdered thousands of Americans like Iran has done with their terrorist cells and funded proxy wars.  Make sense now?

I think it’s a fairly mutual agreement between Russia and China, that they won’t be nuking the US.  If they did it would all be over.  

N Korea is the wild card. Their gov needs to be taken out and held accountable for the atrocities they’ve committed to their own people.   Problem with doing so is….if the US invaded NK they’d wipe out SK.

What happened to no more foreign wars?  Unless Israel tells you to.

We don't think Iran is a nuclear threat.  To us.

And Trump couldn't give a monkeys about us.

So he will reap what he sows.

Huh. Thats crazy.

Like what if the rest of the world knew there was absolutely no threat and enjoyed doing petro-trade with Iran even if they didn’t like their domestic policies and realized knocking the Ayatollah was just a Zionist wet dream.

Super odd they didn’t go after Iran in 5 decades.

Our intel must be better I guess.

ETA: isn’t it crazy that in the history books Ghislaine’s Mossad-agent dad wrote and edited, the good guys are always the winners. Strange that.

Like we are now?
