Ben Shapiro is begging President Trump to go to war with Iran

[Anonymous]

The US better help Israel lest it use the Samson option if it loses

My question: If Israel strikes Iran, does the U.S. have an obligation to go to war on behalf of Israel? If Israel starts a war with Iran would that inevitably drag the U.S. into a war in the M.E. like Iraq/Afghanistan?

lol joint strike? Israel can not strike a wet paper bag without the US. The US could turn off access to guidance systems and Israel would be out of luck. Also Israel can not stop Iranians missiles. Only the US can to an extent. The US shot down all the stuff Iran sent last time and Israel did not contribute at all. If Iran what they did for 2 days we would not be able to stop it.

We have no treaty obligations with Israel. Israel could not put forces on the ground in Iran because Israel has no capabilities to do so. Iran would be difficult for the US to invade. We would have to send pretty much everything we had including reserves and national guard.

Iran is a huge - twice the population of Iraq and about 6 times more land. Iran is very mountainous with large urban area. Iranians would rally to fight the US and Israel. It would quickly become a drone war like what’s going on in Ukraine right now. Outside a few special forces unit no one in the US military is training against a Ukrainian- Russian level drone environment.

Hey Israel where have you been? We the US have been “striking” the whole region for over 30 years mainly for you. Would have been nice if you could have helped us out in Iraq, Afghanistan, battling Isis, the Ukraine, etc. You being at best a fair weather free rider…or as you say “ally”(lol).

So the answer is NO. Trump has said he will not go to war. Does Israel have any idea how unpopular they are with the general public in the US? The backlash would be crazy.

In the meantime Israel better start paying us back for all the aid we have given them. That over 300 billion. Pay us back.

Therefore, if Israel strikes first, it has to deliver a knock-out blow because past experience shows that it cannot defend itself against an Iranian attack. Israel needs the help of the U.S. to do that. Trump has clearly warned Israel not to attack while U.S.-Iran talks are going on. It is therefore possible that Trump will not come to Israel's aid if Israel strikes first.

I can't see Trump showing any interest in an Iraq-style occupation of Iran. Therefore, if the U.S. gets involved, I think our attacks will be limited to stand-off weapons. The result of those attacks will likely be to turn Iran into a failed state, joining the failed states of Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, and, partially, Lebanon. That is a lot of territory and a lot of people to put into states of anarchy and is a recipe for future problems.

Stand off weapons will not turn Iran in to a failed state. Iran is a country with a long national identity. An American attack will rally the country. Iran also has a lot of leverage with Russia and China and most likely could produce a deliverable nuclear weapon in a matter of days. Last time Iran launched their out of date stuff at Israel. This time they will launch their improved munitions(Russian techies are in Iran helping with weapons for the Ukraine war) and target Israel, Saudi and Bahrain. Also look for assassinations of the royal families in Jordan, Saudi Jordan and Bahrain

Trump wants the war with Iran in 2028 not now. Easy to make the case for martial law and stay like FDR.

Of course. Trump would love a war then he can declare martial law and name himself President for life.

It is the job of Congress to declare war and only a simple majority is needed.

All you fools who voted for Trump be prepared to send your sons and daughters to the Middle East to fight and then be prepared to pick up their remains at Dover Air Force base.

I’m not and if such was to come to pass, it would be the first time I am happy DC has an ADHD/anxiety disorder.

It will be Armageddon be suse Russia. China. Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Jordan will join gives against Israel and the US. We have no allies in Europe.

I doubt the Jordanian and Saudi governments will fight for Iran. China would provide weapons. NK, Afghanistan and Iraq might provide fighters, but Russia would have nothing to offer due to their military depletion in Ukraine.

That won’t be disqualifying. We have flat feet and asthma, and I’m sure they’ll give them an inhaler, orthotics, and a rifle.

A draft under Trump will only have disqualification be because of money paid to the Trump family in $TRUMP.

FDR only declared martial law on Hawaii not the country and that was after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. FDR didn’t stay in office because the country was in war. FDR stayed POTUS because he was reelected after campaigning and competing in a presidential election. This country was in the throes of a bloody civil war and Abe Lincoln competed and was elected for a second term. This country has never not had a presidential election due to war. Contrary to some beliefs, Trump ain’t omniscient and he will not break these United States.

Okay. Well I guess I’m going to have to get his doctor to write a diagnosis for bone spurs. That should do it.

Seriously, the military doesn’t accept people on medication. What if the person is off their meds and start shooting ip the barracks like that recruit private Pyle in “Full Metal Jacket”. Love that movie.

And the Iran Contra was under Reagan. Are people this historically illiterate?

Just started a thread on this… this is my two cents.

I keep seeing AIPAC sponsored adds about Iran. Now the news is reporting. Smells like Iraqi all over again. I thought this was an American first administration.

I am not interested in a war with anybody much less Iran. Somebody needs to get after this nonsense before it takes off.

Nope, no obligation, and I think Shapiro and Dershowitz may be very surprised when the left and right sides of the horseshoe combine forces to keep us out of another foreign war that has nothing to do with US national security.

Ben Shapiro is a little, sniveling, indoctrinated Yeshiva HS boy. He’s a conservative, evangelical, political commentator with a low-brow platform. His war-mongering big mouth will never compensate for his micro penis.
