If you want to go kill people in the Middle East so you can pump up the stock price for Raytheon and give Lyndsey Graham an erection lasting more than 12 hours have at it.

I lost friends who thought they were protecting us from terrorists who were actually fighting former US trained assets and a dictator who was actually a former CIA proxy that became inconvenient to the deep state so we sent our teens over to kill them with zero tangible benefit to any American taxpayer based on a series of lies.

If you think you’re a Christian and are enthusiastic about killing people who aren’t a direct threat to you or yours you need to read some history and get a copy of the New Testament because you’re doing it wrong.

Maybe just maybe people in here are OK with wars that we actually pay for.

No, you were the one trying to be the online badass. I called you on it, and now you're projecting and crawfishing like a cuck.

Maybe quit believing all the crap you see on tv (from both sides). The world is run by bankers and war is good for business. Theses sleezy Congress members all make money from war , they all have some sort of stock in companies that make weapons and military equipment. If they don't they except money through lobbiers that do .

The news on both sides are all owned by bankers and or elites . They feed you all crap to keep you divided, Republicans, Democrats, blacks, whites, Muslim , Christians, gays ,straights, . Look at this board everybody has a certain side they pull for , no matter what their side does they make excuses for. It's like mini football teams . Your side is who you pull for and the other side is evil. But in reality both sides are evil , they use the people to work and pay taxes and they take those taxes and enrich themselves and they laugh all the way to the bank.

None of the people in government care about we the people, govern means to control, ment means mind. So government means to control the minds.
That's exactly what they do. Theses wars are for money and land control. Israel uses Americans for their military and Congress is bought by them to do so. I voted for trump twice and was his biggest supporter until I woke up and saw he is no better than any other politician, he's owned by Israel and he does exactly what bibi wants.

I have two sons in their twenties and don't want my kids fighting and dying for evil people who use them for pawns. Iran has never endangered my family one time , bibi has been saying they are on the verge of making nukes for 30 years now . He's an evil piece of crap and don't believe a word he says. Trump ran on no wars , made fun of Obama and Biden and Bush for their wars and he's bombing Iran.

what did the war in iraq accomplish? we killed saadam, but we could've done that without a 20 year war and thousands of US soldiers dead.


People like you argue from the perspective that this action in Iran is guaranteed to be another 20 year war. That is the whole basis of your argument. Yet, there is nothing to indicate it will happen.

This is why you people catch flak. It's not because you're against the war. It's because you argue as if the worst case scenario is inevitable.

You don't want to examine the situation as it is. You just assume the outcome and start arguing from there. In your mind, there can be no possible outcome other than what you've predetermined. So any evidence to the contrary will always be dismissed.

People try for consistency in their ideology and since few really understand what they proclaim to believe they generally just go with whatever the latest thing is.

Happens on both sides.

Wiping one of the most brutally evil tyrannical regimes off the face of the earth when presented with an opportunity like this is an objectively positive thing. Takes a president with good judgement. Something we are completely unfamiliar with till Trump.

Because we keep trying to ‘National Build’ in the Middle East. It’s stupid. We’ve spent Trillions in the Middle East and countless American lives since 1990 and for what?

Has the Fed Gov exiled these people? No. The grift will go on. So instead of cleaning our own house we're determined to go frick up something else. Let Israel and the rest of the ME handle Iran.

Something else, a sign of a dying empire is to fight stupider and stupider wars that have no direct benefit to it's people.

Think of how early on the revolutionary war, then the next few wars were land grabs on our continent or defense of our citizens on our land.

Then the War for Southern Independence (unnecessary)

Spanish American war, fought over Spain's influence in Cuba, we ended up with Puerto Rico (woo hoo)

WW1 did we really need to be involved?

WW2 def needed to defend Hawaii, European involvement, I'm not so sure

Korean war

Vietnam

Gulf war

Iraq and Afghanistan

Iran

And dozens of CIA and other military ops in-between.

What wars were absolutely necessary? As another poster stated, 38T in the hole financing these wars that had no direct benefit to the average American

Ok

What good did it do in Afghanistan, the Taliban came back to rule again and are now in war against Isis-k

Now we’re just bombing a country that has about 3 times as many people with rough terrain just like its neighbor. It’s not gonna work long term

So we can avoid this you IDIOT!



World War II was the deadliest conflict in human history, resulting in an estimated 70 to 85 million deaths worldwide, or roughly 3% of the 1939 global population. The conflict included around 25 million military deaths and over 38-50 million civilian deaths, with the Soviet Union and China suffering the highest total casualties.

Imagin had we taken out Hitler and Hirohito in 1939.

Those people have nothing to offer us, other than oil. Which we don’t fricking need.


21 million barrels of oil come through the strait…

76% of it goes to China, Japan, and Indonesia


We have a numerous military basis set up surrounding the ME bodies of water to ensure that the world’s economy is not turned upside down with oil not being able to flow as it should or should I say as needed

20% of the world‘s energy comes through these narrow bodies of water

We’re about to have three aircraft carriers set up in three different strategic areas- different oceans

But none of them set up in the Persian gulf

Iran never thought we’d avoid the Persian Gulf to attack them
