Israel ACTUALLY has nuclear weapons and is not a member of the Non-Proliferation Treaty. Why do we allow their (stolen) secret weapons program to exist?

Yep, we're not involved in any new wars. Promises made, promises kept.

I'll retract that if anything actually pops off but until then it's just histrionics. 40 days ago the mainstream media was assuring me that we would have boots on the ground in Venezuela within days.

Turn off the news and the podcasters and just look around. Things become more clear when you're not being propagandized and gaslit from umpteen directions.

So destabize a volatile region some more? I'm not sure having 80 million in utter chaos is good for anyone. We have no idea who the other players are in Iran, if there are any organized resistance at all. Until you know a possible alternative, removing an enemy you know is not good policy.

They don't care about budgets when it relates to defense or ICE.

Wanting to spend 38 billion for camps to house undocumented, but have no money for health care or anything beneficial to all that pay taxes.

Iran wants to destroy the World, read up on the 12 Imam. Normally, people want nuclear weapons for defense, but Iran want to use them to welcome the 12th imam ( Mahdi). They want an end of the world event to bring their mahdi back, just google or research this if you aren’t familiar with their beliefs

I disagree with your premise and your conclusion, FTR. Not all international conflicts are Iraq circa 2006. And not all regime changes are disasters. In fact, many bring about lasting peace. But look I get it-Fortress America believes the status quo is safety. It's not. But the Mullahs-who have a 50-year history of nothing, but death and misery need to go. Without a single doubt in my mind. But hey, that's why we have bookmarks, right?

Maybe, but they know their limits so far.

Remember the treaty He tore up that let All inspect/monitor how they used their Nuclear programs? They say no nukes, just energy? Maybe

FF, no intel, only threats to them and bombs,

Deal maker in Chief needs to make a deal AGAIN to prevent stupidity from both sides to prevent war.

My man, before Netanyahu even visited Trump said if one protestor in Iran was killed we would rain down hell (not a direct quote but close enough for my purpose).
I was referring to Netanyahu’s visit at the end of December, not his most recent one.

The better question is why have we waited this long. Iran has been an enemy since 1979. They’ve been killing Americans for nearly the past 50 years.

Its kind of like investing in a company. Have to spend on the front end for benefit on the back end. Get the illegals the hell out of our country and in the future money can be spent on Americans.

What has changed in the time since the first strike?


The masses have risen up against the cleric regime. This regime foments 90% of the unrest in the Middle East. Get rid of them then Hamas, Hezbollah, ISIS, Al Quaeda, and The Taliban all dry up and blow away.

The Taliban is the only one that might survive just because they are in a region nobody else wants...

We really don't have a great record in that part of the world. This is not a banana republic. It's a large nation of 80 million people with oil and some level of technological sophistication beyond what Iraq had.

???? all criticism of Israel is invalid because Qatar is fueling it!!

maybe one day you’ll realize that Netanyahu is not the good guy. And it’s funny because you’re probably a Christian, yet you’re carrying water for the Jews.

Yes. It is as simple as that. Let the bombing begin. We should have thought of this 40-50 years ago, then everything would be perfect.
