We desperately need an FDR or Lincoln to step up. Knowing that there is a 95% chance it will be Trump or Biden "leading" an effort to defend our country and our country's global interests until 2029 is very, very unsettling.

? A war with Iran wouldn't even be a "war." They'd be obliterated. They know that. Why are you concerned, do you think Russian and/or China is going to come in on Iran's side?

Oh no Iran is a real country with a large population in a mountainous area with many large urban area surrounded by countries the US has little to no working relationship with. Israel is a tiny country with very limited military geared to killing civilians and occupying territory and no allies.

The US is extremely vulnerable to state sponsored attacks and Israel had trouble responding to a very limited attack shooting down slow moving missiles over other countries territories. Iran has a lot more they can throw at Israel including ballistic missiles that are impossible to shoot down. Those travel at 15,000 mph, have multiple reentry warheads, 750-1500 kilogram payloads and are accuracy within 500 meters. So instead of 9 hours it would be about 6-10 minutes.

You're kidding right? Just last night Israel intercepted and destroyed 300 drones and missiles launched by Iraq. Do you know what just one US aircraft carrier would do to Iraq's defenses? Gimme a break. (The only question would be how much the US chooses to limit the damage for one reason or another).

You are kidding right? It took Israel $1.5billion dollars, all of its air fleet, US, UK, French, German, Jordanian air fleets. US, UK, French navy support and air defense systems to down 400 cheap drones and 150 old tech missiles. Iran made direct hits to the top 3 Israeli military assets and mapped out Israel’s air defense system and it’s defense tactics. Israel is on a suicide mission.

I have to take most of that with a grain of salt. Russia was paying $400,000 a pop for those "cheap" Shahed drones and Iran made a point of swaggering about their new missiles, as opposed to "old tech" and there is nothing to support the claims of "$1.5 billion" or "it took ALL OF" nor that there was even any significant impact to Israel's military capabilities in the aftermath.

Stop with this stupid flexing, Iran has plenty of support from Russia and China, you don’t want the situation to escalate.

Plenty of support? Russia couldn't even help their CSTO ally Armenia out. Russia is greatly overextended. And China is too smart to go to war over Iran.

China is sitting on its perch sipping tea and watching an overextended US bleeding money, power and influence over fringe protectorates.

Iran hasn't attacked the US facilities or forces.
But, they have made sure their proxies have.
You are clueless if you think Iran has no hand in the attacks we have suffered.

Three U.S. soldiers were killed yesterday in Jordan, while more than 40 other service members were injured following an uncrewed aerial system attack at a military base near the Syrian border. Those service members were in Jordan to support Operation Inherent Resolve, which is the U.S. and coalition mission to ensure the defeat of ISIS.

"In terms of attribution for the attack, we know this is an [Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps ]-backed militia," she said. "It has the footprints of Kataib Hezbollah. But not making a final assessment on that, our teams here are continuing to do the analysis. We know that Iran is behind it. And certainly as we've said before ... Iran continues to arm and equip these groups to launch these attacks, and we will certainly hold them responsible."

Immediately PP makes it clear that anti-Iranian discourse echoes antisemitic discourse in that it not just points to a people’s atavistic problems, but also imagines the totality of evil coming from a single malign group. And as with antisemitism, the purpose of anti-Iranianism is to distract from the misdirection of a society’s own leaders. Sad!

The IRGC has been designated as a terrorist regime. And, not just in the US.
Rightly so.

This. OMG. The people of Iran themselves do not support their government-90% of them last I read. These arguments are hilarious. Anti-iranianism???? Iranians and Israeli's minus the government of Iran share a huge bond and there is tremendous support for Israel among many Iranians. In fact, some in Iran are risking their lives to leave messages of support. Iranians in the UK and Canada are getting arrested for going to these anti-Israel marches and holding up signs that say "Hamas is a terrorist organization." There are Israeli flags permanently drawn on the ground in places in Iran to force people to show disdain by walking on the flag and Iranian people go out of their away to avoid stepping on the Israeli flag. Are you seriously confusing a people with their government?

A shahed drone costs $20k a pop. Most of the drones were unarmed decoys.

There was no intent to do major damage, only to test out Israeli defense and to signal we can hit you where and when we want.

Maybe he should just keep his mouth closed. His "Don't" initiative is not working. Whatever aide/advisor/cabinet member dreamed up the "don't" strategy should be fired.

Yes they attack all the Israelis just vacationing in Yemen right? Please

Iran didn’t even attack Israel yesterday .

[Anonymous]

Israel destroyed that region

[Anonymous]

They all had no choice to but rely on extremists to counter Jewish extremists .

You will still see maps of Greater Israel from the Tigris and Euphrates River down to Aden, Yemen . The Jewish extremists (not the majority of the Jewish people just the fringe) are very very open about their desire to hopefully take over Iraq, Iran; the Levant, the Sinai.

If not for the radicals in these places that are just as religious and just as crazy, what would stop Israeli settlements? I don’t blame Palestinians for voting for Hamas. Without it, settlers would be on the beaches of Gaza again. Crazy can only be countered with crazy
