He did not tell us what’s going on. All he did was tell us what we already know - that Iran, Russia, North Korea and China are our enemies and they are all up to no good. Big deal!

Yes, it is a big deal. Wars across multiple fronts will allow us to finally prove our extreme capabilities. That is, if the MIC will allow it.

For all we know, China might be forced to attack Russia. At that point, NATO will invite Russia in with open arms. We could go on and on and ......

Trump had the whole ME and Asia quiet and making deals, and then something happened to light it all on fire. It's the Dems and RINOs pure and simple. And they most certainly will start a WW in order to maintain or gain power. Hell, they've essentially started in now minus some miracle like Trump's assassination miss.

Scary times. Could totally see these incompetent leaders bringing the Draft back. Thank God my kids are infants right now and not young adults.
I don't see that working at all like they think it would. I would bet most people who get drafted would refuse I mean who would possibly send their kids to die like that for no real gain

He also would have told the American people how many American lives Ike sacrificed due to incompetence and politics.


How many more were you willing to sacrifice to march from Berlin to Moscow starting in May of 1945?

*crickets*

Patton probably would’ve advocated nuking Moscow.

Israel is not going to start a regional war


That's exactly what they're trying to do

Israel just killed the chief negotiator for Hamas, in Iran, while he was Iran's guest. And the man was a moderate, killing him enables the hardliners in Hamas. Simultaneously, they hit both Lebanon and Syria. Everyone is now compelled to respond, which is exactly what Bibi wanted. He will have his war now.

Levin is an Israeli First, not American First.

All he wants is war. And with my luck and age, I'll be drafted into the Tranny Army of America.

I'll pass.

Did you really think when Bibi said, "When this is over, the Middle East will be changed" that the MIT-educated Bibi meant it could be done without war?

Regardless, I do take Bibi at his word and many countries in the Middle East are willing to let Israel do what needs to be done.

Step 1: allow Israel to take the gloves off
Step 2: stay TF out the way

Israel is in trouble, the war in Gaza hasn’t gone well, it’s proving endless, and Israel can’t win a regional war without heavy US involvement.



Like a moth to the flame. Of course you believe this. You support the evil Arab cause.

Lina, do you believe Israel has a right to exist? Do you believe the Jews have a right to exist in peace and stop being fricked with by Arabs? Answer the question in a straight forward manner. Don’t deflect. Yes or no?


Because the Arabs over there don’t believe Israel or the Jews have a right to exist anywhere. They want all Jews exterminated. And then Americans. And then anyone else that doesn’t believe what they believe.

Explain how you are different from them. I think you aren’t.

What does “win” even mean? Israel is not going to force the unconditional surrender of Iran, that’s certain. Israel is not going to start a regional war, so their aims, if Iran starts one, is to survive with its borders intact and to make Iran suffer egregiously. And yes, they can do that without our open help.


This is true, but Lima will argue it’s not. Lima might actually be a Palestinian acting like an American.

I think it had to do with what he knew about the Soviet Union and that we should had taken them out while we were there. Or at least driven them out of Eastern Europe.

Israel hasn’t been constrained by anyone since probably the first Bush administration. They do what they want.

There are real limits to their power though, and a regional war is beyond them, for example.

Well to be fair by that time the Soviet Union was a weakened force and their military was in Eastern Europe.

Nukes ain’t all that bad, the atom bomb saved about a million casualties invading the Japan mainland. Which would had just been the first wave of the invasion. Which would had been 80 of our 110 divisions at the time.
