Don't lose the perspective of a Nuclear Armed Iran. There is a price to pay for avoiding the end of the world. Adding a buck or more to the cost of a gallon of gas for a few months is well worth it. Perspective people, perspective. One more thing. Democrats are evil.

If the country was mostly made up of a well informed population that was gainfully employed and understood the implications of everything, I would agree with you 100%

Unfortunately the majority these days couldn't find Iran on a map if you gave them 10 chances, doesn't know or probably care what's really going on, and only cares about how much it takes for them to fill up the car for their DoorDash gig

The destruction of the working middle class has created such a gulf between "I'm ok with higher prices because I know it's for the good of all of us" and "frick Trump, I can't afford shite right now" that no amount of good reasoning will change the second groups minds.

But we are told the Supreme Ayatollah had a fatwa against nuclear weapons.

But they also play Taqiyya when necessary.

Me, I am going to watch the sunset, have a Bourbon, touch some grass and watch Rambo or Predator this evening.

It will play out and in our favor.

I’m confused because Trump told us they destroyed Iran’s potential nuclear capability last year. So what was the point of all this? A lot of Americans can’t afford groceries and rent, now gas has jumped. Midterms will be a bloodbath.

I have no idea what was or wasn't destroyed, but I suspect Iran will have a hard time enriching uranium for a bit. But apparently they have several hundred pounds that can be made into a bomb and are working furiously for the ability to make more (rebuild what was bombed).

This isn't hard. We have a group of religious fanactics working despeately to bring the Twelfth Imam to end the world as we know it. Bow down to Allah or lose your head.
