Well if that’s your argument then we should invade every country that has nukes

The risk of losing this war to Iran is higher than us getting hit by one of their nukes. If we lose, bye bye petrodollar

We haven't invaded Iran. If a country threatens us with nukes and they are working on developing them, yes. We should destroy them. Once they have them, assured mutual destruction comes into play and changes things.

To me this is irrelevant. I'm not an advocate of being world police but when they make this threat to your face AND decline your offer of free nuclear fuel forever then they have made it very clear what the end goal is


North Korea, China and Russia make threats all the time.

We're not bombing them and killing their civilians. Iran is the same threat as they've always been. It shouldn't be surprising that any nation resists someone dictating to them how they can run their nation under threat of attack. We're not the good guys in this.

This isn't about security. (Unless we're talking about Israel) This is about Trump's stupid fricking ego. It's going to cost him his legacy, it's likely going to set the GOP back (not that most of them care) for years, it's going to shift young voters back to the left and worst of all, it's going to take that populist wave that the GOP has almost solely ridden to power this last decade and shift it straight into the hands of the socialists. Congrats.

Regime change in Iran was the right decision and always will be.
Take out the nuclear reasons, Iran is the number 1 sponsors of terror proxies across the globe, they are the reason the Middle East is unstable. Cut off the regime, cut off the money to the proxy groups, cut off the arms support, the logistics and the intel, the Middle East won’t be the same.

Peace in the middle east is impossible until there is regime change in both iran and israel and both countries are denuclearized

We have golden dome. There is zero chance of an iranian nuke reaching the US. Their missles arent capable of leaving the middle east


You serious, Clark?

Your position is that because they can't strike the US mainland directly with a NUKE (that they've clearly stated an intent on using if they acquire one), that it's all good and we should leave them alone?

Baffling.

There is a country they can strike and want to strike and it’s not us. That is the country we are at war for. The same country that had a prime minister meet with Epstein.

You don't understand the difference between rational regimes with nuclear capabilities and irrational regimes with nuclear capabilities?

That is a good summary but the problem is that Iran is different. Mutually assured destruction only works in the other actor is rational and wants to continue to live. The people running Iran believe that a nuclear war is desirable since they believe it will result in a religious victory for their cause. In other words, they don't care about mutual destruction. We would consider them to be crazy. Can't let a person who wants to end the world have a nuke.

There ya go! That's ALL that needs to be said. This issue has been put to rest.
POTUS, the only elected government official that all Americans can vote for, made his decision. Now, stfu and vote harder next time!!! Lol
Must suck to be anti Trump losers!!!

I remember when y'all were on here just before the election predicting how Trump couldn't win!!! Go spew your TDS infected ideas into the mirror!

"So the assessment of the intelligence community is that Iran's nuclear enrichment program was obliterated by last summer's air strikes," Ossoff asked.

"Yes," Gabbard said.

Ossoff asked her whether there had been "no effort since then to try to rebuild their enrichment capability."

"Correct?" he asked.

"That's right," she said.


It's a good thing then that Rubio told us the threat was their ever-growing drone and missile arsenal that would have eventually made stopping them much more deadly.

Why do people constantly ignore this fact? Is it because it goes against the narrative that Iran was no threat?
