re: $29 Billion Later, the Price of Gas Has Increased 62%

I see no mention of a terrorist state developing nukes. Why?

---

Because this nukes story is a red herring. Intended for low IQ consumption.

The US govt told us the capability was destroyed months ago. T or F?

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard testified to Congress that U.S. intelligence assessed Iran was not building a nuclear weapon. T or F?

And if they do want to build a nuclear weapon, there is no guarantee that this war will prevent these same ambitions 10 years from now. T or F?

We are going to have to pay big money to Iran to get the Strait of Hormuz opened. Iran can buy whatever material they need with all that cash. T or F?

Because they lack critical thinking skills, and that’s the only argument that they have

So I’m assuming that means you actually know the person that you’re commenting about. Or at least, there is enough posted material online from the person for you to review and make such a judgment. I’m assuming you’ve done your homework on the person.

Nope. But you do make a good point.

First of all, I'll bet you any amount of money you'd like to bet that that is not true.

Second, what intelligence agencies are you aware of who routinely share their findings openly on an international scale?

---

The IAEA and the United States DNI in fact do share information regarding these things.

Particularly in the event of justifying military action.

[quote]And what was the price of oil under Biden after he gave a bunch of Dem donors and NGOs about $1 trillion through the Green New Deal SCAM?

The cult is slipping; it wasnt until the third reply that they went to the tried and true whataboutism. You need to do better.

Do you really feel good about the Biden sucked, so we have every right to suck too defense?

where did I state that I’m concerned about the price of gas?

Does it matter?

Yeah it does

quote:

pretty much every intelligence agency says they are not enriching to weapons grade.

---

Is that exactly what "pretty much every intelligence agency" says? Got links?

Not that it would matter much if they did say exactly that. That's like saying, UtahCajun definitely has a shotgun and definitely has shells for it, but he's not loading it." Today. What if he decides to load it tomorrow?

Also, what if the intelligence we have access to is better than other intelligence agencies? What if we and Austria and Israel know something that other intelligence agencies don't know?

quote:

---

So are you saying they are lying to us on their own website? We do know they do that.

---

Why is that incredible, then?

Also, look at the statement again. It says, "A 2025 public U.S. intelligence assessment..." Iranian officials allegedly told our officials about the enriched uranium in Jan of this year. 2026. IAEA "never had information indicating that there was a structured systematic [Iranian] program to build or to construct a nuclear weapon."

We're back to, "Utah Cajun has a shotgun and shells, but we have no information that he is loading his shotgun."

As said, our government has lied to us several times to pull us into needless war that benefits the MIC.

---

Yeah, because the UN never lies.

We're getting into territory here that we're simply not going to agree on because you're starting to expose the populist conspiracy conclusions that are obviously driving your selective assessment of this situation.

quote:

---

Every single time, they attempted to either lie or use propaganda to get us into action.

---

Really? What was the lie in WWI? WWII? History vindicated Korea and Vietnam when the USSR collapsed, as they were both part of the proxy war situation that ultimately bankrupted them. And the USSR was the greatest threat to all life on the planet in the 20th century.

The US spent our first 150 years or so as isolationists. We had two World Wars and a handful of singular ones, and some of those were fought on our own soil, and in one of the world wars nuclear weapons were used. Twice.

We then embraced interventionism. Since then we've has zero World Wars, no nuclear weapons use, and no wars fought on our own soil.

To me there is a clear and undisputed winner, and it's not close. That's my response to "needless wars to benefit (XYZ)."

And you don't mean that a government would use propaganda in a war, do you? Egads! Say it ain't so!

I am just enjoying messing with neo-cons. Nothing more. 95% of this board are incapable of civil discourse. I learned that quickly so I just play along in my own way.

O.k., thanks for disclosing that. I'll no longer take anything you say seriously.

quote:

---

This is a lose/lose action.

---

We'll see. IMO if it sets Iran back 10 years it was a success. Then we'll have to do it again.

The alternative is that eventually Iran will get nuclear weapons and Iran and Israel will start using them on each other. And there's simply no way for us to be able to ignore that and say, "Well, that's not our problem." It would destroy the entire world economy.

I meant publicly, for casual consumption by me and you.

Although I'm pretty sure you knew that.
