Did you argue for or against that? Personally, I believe that we are in a war, even without a declaration. Not a "proxy war" like Ukraine, but a US war fought by US forces. Personally, I believe that even if I oppose a war on some grounds (like economic, which I generally do unless convinced otherwise by evidence), it would be very dangerous and counterproductive to try and undercut the rationale or goals for an ongoing military campaign where Americans are fighting and dying. I will not give any aid or comfort or moral support to our enemy in that situation. That's my opinion.

It's been postulated for a while that Qaani is the Mossad mole in the upper echelon inner circle, long before this past Saturday. If there's any truth to the report that he's been detained that'll serve as pretty strong confirmation.

The Constitution says that war can only be declared by Congress. They haven't done that yet.
I said that I find Matt Walsh's perspective "interesting". I did not say that I agree with him.
I support the action that has been taken. I think it is necessary even if our hand was forced by Israel.
I have skin in the game. One of my sons is active-duty Navy.
But I don't shy away from opposing points of view. I seek to understand them.

Maybe I'm being too judgmental, but Mr. Walsh doesn't sound like he's "seeking to understand". It appears he's steadily attempting to change hearts and minds during a conflict.

In wartime, talking points that agree with or otherwise support the enemy are something else. During wartime, accusing your own government of acting in bad faith is something else. Accusing your government of acting against the interests of the country, while the bombs are falling, is something else. Anyone pushing those "perspectives" right now, during wartime, is no longer just a political commentator.
What's the "something else"? If Walsh is no longer a political commentator for not being 100% sold on military intervention in a foreign country, what are you accusing him of being?

Walsh is deliberately being obtuse to a complex situation.
Comes off as either being a contrarian for the sake of it or he is just dumb on geopolitics

If tweet fails to load, click here. Hopefully this means they went radio silent because they are all dead. Also why the f**k would Russia who denies helping Iran with its nuclear program be talking to their nuclear leaders if they were not helping Iran's nuclear program? Did Russia just out itself?

You joined in August. Almost all new posters are just DU crap stirrers. You appear no different and will be ignored until you post something to redeem your credibility.

It is all semantics or legalize.
War in the dictionary says war is a state of open, armed, often prolonged conflict carried on between nations, states, or parties.
By THAT definition we are at war. Anyone that want to say we haven't declared war on Iran can say that and be technically correct because "officially" we are not at war.
Personally I think when our military is using missiles and jets to attack some entity... I consider that to be war, because it is an act of war sanctioned by our leaders.
Official or not I consider us at war with the IRGC.

If tweet fails to load, click here. If true, how fricking dumb can you be doing construction like that in an active warzone?
