Just War or not?

IMHO, it is a "Just War", because Iran has been killing our servicemembers for almost 50 years. Also, they are trying to acquire nuclear weapons, and are committed to using them.

It may be a close question, but, IMHO this is a Just War. It is a War for Justice. Once this evil Iranian Regime is dead and buried, the Middle East has a very good chance to have lasting Peace.

The ones who don’t believe it is are the same ones who would be bitching if Iran got a nuke under Trump’s watch.

The melt would be even worse.

They just like to complain.

I would never have complained if they got a nuke. Way to paint with a broad brush. The fact is Trump lied and said that we would not be the world policeman and getting involved in these interventions. Y’all have forgot, conveniently for daddy.

Are you saying that with a straight face?

Lied?

One of the criteria for traditional just war theory is proportional response. When one country has a stated goal of developing a nuke just to wipe another off the planet that get murky.

Do we not have the capability to rationally discuss the Theory of the Just War?

I posted my thoughts about this in another thread:

“They wanted a nuclear weapon for deterrence, but Trump only cared because Israel cared. Look what happened to Libya after Khadafi ended their nuclear program in 2003. I’m sure Iran took note.
They also were attacked at the end of February DURING the negotiations.

And what about Operation Midnight Hammer last June? We were told at the time that it crippled their nuclear aspirations but then 8.5 months later we’re told we have to take out their regime because of their imminent acquisition of nuclear weapons?”


Yes, I quoted myself, but I think I summed it before the best that I can.

Totally agree. The regime is illegitimate. So was Maduro in Venezuela. Our true enemy, the globalist of London, have been behind the curtain controlling these illegitimate regimes… and their oil resources.
Free the people and let them run a sovereign country.
That’s the goal and I believe it will be achieved.

Historical facts say other wise. These Inbreds seemingly go out of their way to be shite stirrer's. If they cannot find an Infidel to slaughter they turn on themselves.

Dammit, some of y'alls logic just mystifies me. So, if Iran gets a nuke, do you honestly think Israel would allow Iran to strike first? Absolutely not.
Then what????
It would become an international crisis that would likely become a true WWIII.
Possible end of mankind.

The total idiocy of some folks here is hard to grasp.

"Death to America" speaks directly to the premise.

They have taqiyya. You meant to say that the IRGC has taquiyya.

They have Allah's blessing to establish peace in the world (peace to radical islam means conquering their enemies and forcing peaceful submission) through lies and deception (taquiyya).

This conspiracy theory is particularly retarded when applied to Iran of all places.

Learn some basic history, specifically the coup in 1953 and who was behind it.
