They are not a threat to us today


Iran sent a member of the IRGC here to assassinate Trump.

Asif Merchant (Convicted March 2026): A Pakistani national and trained operative for the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), Merchant was convicted in March 2026 for a murder-for-hire plot. He was caught by the FBI after attempting to hire undercover agents—whom he believed were hitmen—to assassinate a high-ranking U.S. politician, specifically naming Trump as a target.

So not a new war.


Thanks for clearing that up.

That was 30 years ago. They are not a threat to us today and they would not have done this with Trump in the White House (until he started bombing them).


We were fighting Iran under Biden.

We provided defense for Israel. This is nothing new.

And all of them have devastating consequences and blowback. We don’t need to have any presence in any of those places.

I remember when everything Trump did was at the service of Putin not that long ago.

Heres the deal dude, there are two things that are 100% factual. 1) none of us truly know everything that went into the operation and no one can say with any level of credibility that they know for a fact why the US launched this op. 2) the people who are convinced all of this happened because Israel this or Israel that will NOT be convinced otherwise. There will be no minds changed. If a person has decided that Israel dragged us into this war and BiBi tricked Trump, nothing said will change their minds. Whichever side of the issue people fall on, 95% of them will not be looking at data and evidence with an open mind, they’ll only look at it to confirm their own narrative.


Very true. We’re all being manipulated and there’s no way to know what is truth and what is not. Everyone is backed into a corner and believes whatever sources they hear that reinforces their opinion.

In 28 days they have wiped out Iran's entire Navy and Air Force. Ballistic missile launches are down 92% and drone launches are down 95%. They are reporting a 90% desertion rate of the Artesh and 5000 casualties of the irgc. All of the top leadership has been completely taken out twice and they are now down to mid level military guys. That my friend is an arse whooping.

Our military can easily kick the shite out of anyone, achieve any objective on the battlefield, and destroy the enemy, the problem is we will never have long term success in the middle east because this is what they do. We cant kill what they believe, and they believe it more deeply than any other religious culture. They care less than the oil than we do, human life means less, the only thing they care about is imposing their beliefs on others. They have the stomach for this. We do not. We want instant gratification these arseholes are in it for the long haul. If we do finish this thing in 20-30 years it will be back to the same old thing because its what they believe. they have been doing this since the beginning of time

President Eisenhower warned us when he gave his "Farewell Address".

"Military Industrial Complex is our greatest threat to freedom".

Nobody can explain how Korea, Viet Nam, or Iraq were a threat to American Freedom.

We bomb them over there, then open the border and bribe them to come in.

IMO, Islam and Leftist Democrats are the greatest threats to our freedom.

Remember Covid! Open Borders!

problems at home which seem to be completely ignored by this administration.

The "problems with this country" are the direct result of your DEMOCRAT bastards. You are sucking them off while the plot their next disgrace.

The PROBLEM is that we have tried to 'negotiate' with evil - and by that I mean the DEMOCRAT PARTY - they are not even close to being a political party worthy of a moment of 'understanding'

Their motive is all too clear - destroy whatever stands in their way of unopposed dictatorial power.

They have failed to win the confidence of the vast majority of REAL Americans - so they have concentrated on further enslaving the most vulnerable, inviting in the 'hungry mass of the world' and devoting all their energy towards pleasing THEM in order to bastardize our electoral process in order to gain more representation based on the welfare hordes they created. They bastardized the electoral process with laughable "JIM-CROW-TOO-POINT-OHHHH" chants.

This lslamist threat the world faces is the direct product of the DEMOCRAT party's (in cahoots with RINOs who are just as bad) playing footsie with every dictatorial regime that will give them $$$ under the table for their vorte-purchasing efforts.

Unfortunately, it was left to some rich playboy real estate mogul with actual love for the American culture to step in stop the merry-go-round.

For his efforts, they have unleashed the entire power of the government trying to find "something - anything, dammit - ANYTHING) to discredit him, defeat him, bankrupt him, imprison him, assassinate him - ANYTHING to "rid them of this unpleasant imposter"

Trump did not create the debt - did not support the processes that resulted in the debt - did not partake in the 'payoff regime' that has spent BILLIONs of wasted money for them to collect MILLIONs of illegal campaign contributions so they could import more illegal aliens, give them the power to protest in opposition to any reasonable legislation, put them on the dole to keep them poor and angry so they cannot actually take advantage of the TRUE blessings of America to improve their own lot in life and join the rest of us.

This is not a FOREVER war - UNLESS the democrat SCUM get their desire to PREVENT a quick ending because it is beneficial to America - they WANT a long costly foreign crisis -

Anything that distracts the nation from their CRIMINAL attacks on the American tax=payer for their own election purposes.

DAMN I am pissed at all the wailing and moaning from the same people who kept their mouths shut while the Democrats torpedoed our foreign policy and stole our elections, and corrupted our youth, and bribed our media, and raped every honest institution the nation had ever erected.

Yep - I dunno who is more dishonorable - plain ol democrat hustlers or the 'Blame Israel" crowd -

Israel is our most steadfast ally - I cannot think of another country in the world (with their current leadership) that I would rather have on my side of a worldwide conflict - especially one that is centered on moral aspects.

They support terrorism and proxy war against us every year. Also we will liberating their people who have been suffering under tyranny and forced to practice radical Islamist since 1979.

But in the bigger picture it’s not about them, it’s about China and painting them into a corner:

Shhhh!

We have to ignore the 700ish American soldiers killed by Iran over the last 50ish years.

We only started losing brave men and women under Trump's attacking of Iran.

Iranian proxies carried out sustained attacks on American interests that resulted in death and injury during Trump's first term.

So your statement is just false.
