Wow, I wonder who it was that put all
of that into motion. Oh yeah, it was decade after decade of the US destabilizing Iran. Here we are again, and this time with the dumbest and least capable US administration in 250 years.

Another ignorant statement. All you are doing is parroting words of the communists cheering for Iran.

Ok you are just stupid. I’m sorry that I tried to engage, I erroneously assumed that you had some basic background in world events.

If you can’t acknowledge history then you can’t be taken seriously. You should at least make it through a couple of basic wikis before you return.

Trump is flushing our taxpayer dollars down the toilet. How many billions is he spending every day? We cannot afford this adventurism.

This! +1000 he’s a dying old man checking off items on his to-do list and making sure he takes care of his bros before he croaks.

This is a war almost 40 years in the making.

Trump said in *1987* that the US should attack "horrible, horrible" Iran, "and take over some of their oil." In the years since, Trump talked about seizing oil from Venezuela, Iraq, Syria, Kuwait, and Libya.

Kuwait got in a few shots, taking down 3 American planes "by accident"

It’s about $300M to replace those planes, btw. So glad the pilots and crew are safe.

If you'd like to fight the Mullahs, you're free to do so. Stop using our children to do it.

“Our children” - or rather, our military - are getting rid of this sick regime which has caused so much terror around the world for decades. Very thankful right now but it figures that you would want the Islamic Regime to continue sowing terror both within Iran and worldwide.

They’re not going to do that.

I doubt that too. But I think it’s highly likely that china supplies Iran with lots of missiles and drones to keep this going for a while. They won’t get actively involved, but they’ll take the opportunity to bleed our munitions stocks dry so we won’t be able to stop them from taking Taiwan.

That's plausible.

China cant take over Taiwan without leveling the island. But they want the semiconductor plants.

The Taiwanese will willingly join them. They have no alternative now. The Japanese are PISSED that the US didn’t give them the customary heads up. China is now eying Japan. Taiwan is small change.

This is incredibly stupid. Zero chance any of the above happens in the near term.

It’s a shame they don’t involve you in their plans considering you are such an accomplished military mind and all. If you know anything about our military, they don’t take orders from any foreign power. This is a joint operation. It appears the US is targeting nuclear sites and striking missile launching sites while Israel is taking out Iran’s leadership. This is what a coordinated joint effort looks like.

Sadly that is no longer true. This entire fiasco in Iran is not in the national security interest of the United States.

Besides Trump obliterated Iran’s nuclear sites last summer, right?

Bullshit it isn’t in our interest. I can only assume with a statement like that you are young and naive.

A summary of a thread from X:

THREAD: For 47 years, the Iranian Regime has been regularly targeting and killing Americans.

Here is a timeline of 50 plus examples of Iran hurting America and terrorizing the world.

1979: The Iranian regime took over the U.S. Embassy in Tehran resulting in a 444‑day hostage crisis.

1983: The Iranian regime provided material support to Hezbollah for the Beirut Marine barracks bombing that killed 241 U.S. service members.

1984: The Iranian regime’s proxy Hezbollah kidnapped CIA station chief William Buckley in Beirut. Buckley died in captivity.

1984: The Iranian regime’s proxy Hezbollah carried out the truck bomb attack on the U.S. Embassy annex in Beirut, killing 24.

1985: The Iranian regime’s proxy Hezbollah hijacked TWA Flight 847, during which a U.S. Navy diver was murdered.

1988: The Iranian regime carried out mass executions of prisoners, an atrocity still under international scrutiny.

1989: Supreme Leader Khomeini issued a regime fatwa calling for Salman Rushdie’s death, inciting murder abroad.

1992: Iranian regime operatives assassinated Kurdish dissidents in Berlin (the Mykonos murders), later tied by German authorities to senior Iranian decision‑makers.

994: Argentina’s top criminal court blamed Iran for directing Hezbollah to bomb the AMIA Jewish center in Buenos Aires (85 killed).

2007: Iran abduction of retired FBI Special Agent Robert A. “Bob” Levinson from Kish Island, Iran, on March 9, 2007.

2007: U.S. courts held Iran responsible for providing material support to Hezbollah for the 1983 Beirut attack, underscoring long‑standing regime sponsorship of terror.

2011- 2013: Iranian regime‑linked hackers conducted coordinated DDoS attacks on U.S. banks, costing tens of millions.

2013: The same Iranian regime cyber campaign included compromising a U.S. dam control system (Bowman Avenue Dam), per U.S. indictments.

2012: Iranian regime and Hezbollah operatives carried out bomb attacks targeting Israeli embassy staff in India and Georgia.

2012: Investigators linked the Bangkok blasts to the same wave of suspected Iranian regime operations targeting Israeli diplomats.

2012: Israeli officials explicitly blamed the regime’s IRGC‑Quds Force for masterminding that diplomat‑targeting attack wave.

2015: Iranian forces fired on and boarded the Maersk Tigris in the Gulf, seizing the vessel.

2016: IRGC forces detained 10 U.S. Navy sailors after their boats entered Iranian waters, using public humiliation as coercion.

2017: Reuters reported a sharp rise in IRGC detentions of dual nationals (hostage‑style leverage), a pattern the regime used repeatedly.

2018: Denmark said an Iranian intelligence service planned an assassination on Danish soil.

2018: A Belgian court case centered on an Iranian diplomat convicted for planning a bomb attack near Paris.

2019: The IRGC shot down a U.S. military drone.

2019: The Iranian regime exceeded the nuclear deal’s enriched‑uranium stockpile limit, accelerating proliferation risk.

2019: The regime further breached nuclear‑deal constraints.

2019: The IRGC seized the British‑flagged tanker Stena Impero in the Strait of Hormuz.

2019: The regime ordered a lethal crackdown on nationwide protests; Reuters reported about 1,500 killed.

2020: Iran launched ballistic missiles at bases housing U.S. troops in Iraq (Ain al‑Asad/Erbil), a direct regime strike.

2020: U.S. officials confirmed American troops were treated for concussions after that Iranian missile attack.

2021: A drone attack on the tanker Mercer Street killed two crew; the incident was attributed by U.S./UK/Israel officials to Iran.

2021: U.S. prosecutors charged Iranian intelligence officials with plotting to kidnap journalist Masih Alinejad from New York for rendition to Iran.

2021: The DOJ charged Iranian nationals for a cyber‑enabled campaign to intimidate U.S. voters and undermine confidence in the 2020 election.

2022: U.S. authorities charged an IRGC member with plotting to assassinate John Bolton inside the United States.

2022: Mahsa Amini died after detention by the regime’s morality police, triggering a nationwide uprising against state violence.

2022: Iran agreed to supply Russia more drones and missiles, enabling strikes that hit Ukrainian cities and infrastructure.

2023: Reuters detailed a U.S.–Iran detainee exchange that hinged on regime detention of Americans—an example of Iran’s state hostage leverage.

2023: October 7 Attack where Iran-backed Hamas terrorists murdered more than 1,200 innocent men, women, and children — including 46 Americans.

2023: Iran‑backed Hezbollah exchanged fire with Israel as regional violence expanded after Oct. 7.
2023 continued: Hezbollah launched rockets from Lebanon and Israel struck back, demonstrating Iran’s proxy pressure on Israel’s northern border.

U.S. forces in Iraq were targeted by drones, as Iran‑aligned groups resumed a sustained attack pattern.

U.S. officials said they expected more Iran‑backed attacks on U.S. troops, underscoring regime‑enabled proxy warfare.

The White House said Iran was in some cases “actively facilitating” rocket and drone attacks by proxies on U.S. bases.

Iran‑aligned Houthis escalated attacks on commercial shipping, triggering widespread rerouting and supply‑chain disruption.

2024:

Persistent Iranian-backed Houthi strikes on shipping.

A drone strike by an Iran‑backed militia killed three U.S. troops at Tower 22 in Jordan, a major escalation against U.S. forces.

Iran’s Quds Force commander visited Baghdad and helped modulate militia attacks, demonstrating regime command influence over proxies.

Iran provided Russia ballistic missiles, deepening Tehran’s role in a war affecting European security.

Iran launched hundreds of drones and missiles directly at Israel, an unprecedented overt regime attack.

The IRGC seized the MSC Aries (“linked to Israel”), boarding it by helicopter and diverting it to Iran—state piracy-style coercion.

Iran’s overseas “murder‑for‑hire” style plots and proxy operations against Israel‑linked targets in the West exposed.

2024: Reuters reported EU action driven by Iran’s policy of detaining foreigners as leverage—reinforcing the regime’s wrongful‑detention pattern.

2025: Iran’s IRGC seized a foreign tanker in the Strait of Hormuz, continuing regime maritime coercion in a critical global chokepoint.

2026: Reuters reported the U.S. designated Iran a state sponsor of wrongful detention.

This is the problem with dementia. Trump is largely living in the 70s (when NYC was crime ridden, when Iran was an existential threat, etc).

Or he thinks it's all one glorious UFC fight. CNN quotes him saying we're "knocking the crap" out of Iran. This is how the buffoon speaks about a deadly conflict that could result in WWIII breaking out. It's all one big UFC fight he placed a big bet on and expects to win.

He thinks it will overshadow EPSTEIN! He is a fool because nothing will keep the trump-Epstein files off the front page!

Good God. Give it a rest. You people are totally obsessed with Epstein when you didn’t utter a word about the files or the victims during Biden’s 4 years.

And if your critical thinking were in place you would realize that if there was a hint of anything credible pointing to any criminal acts by Trump, the Democrats would have used that in a hot second.

That’s still your talking point? That Trump is totally innocent and has never done anything wrong or broken any laws?

PP would enlist and die for Trump. Or they’d send their own kids to the front lines to sacrifice themselves for the demented orange menace.
