“In deep?” You’re fresh out of shite to say, aren’t you? Let’s hope that’s the case anyway.

They wanted a nuclear weapon for deterrence, but Trump only cared because Israel cared. Look what happened to Libya after Khadafi ended their nuclear program in 2003. I’m sure Iran took note.
They also were attacked at the end of February DURING the negotiations.
And what about Operation Midnight Hammer last June? We were told at the time that it crippled their nuclear aspirations but then 8.5 months later we’re told we have to take out their regime because of their imminent acquisition of nuclear weapons?
The whole thing stinks. Embrace critical thinking.

Knows better about what? Are you even capable of simple communication? Because it is becoming pretty evident that you are not. You can't understand the simple concept of word substitution or the flaws in your own thinking which are well documented here for people to see.

Helluva rebuttal lol. Thanks for proving my point ;)

People get wrapped up in what they mean more than what they said.
I will say though I guarantee at least one person here is rooting for Iran, probably on several accounts.
That said no idea who they are in particular except it is likely to be newer accounts.
Many nations are deploying bot farms, managed by paid actors to every corner of the internet, thats just how things are now.
To note though, said bad actor could be running pro trump accounts and anti trump accounts.
Their goal is misinformation and distrust.
I do think there are far leftists who are self brainwashed but they stick to their echo chambers.

Go on, let the childish insults flow, always the case when your only option would be mouth breathing dull mindedness.

obviously today has been rough for you.. I won't hold your current state of agitation against you on account of that.
Hope you'll accept my olive branch

Are you even able to explain exactly what you mean by that? I bet you can’t.

Why do you think you know their mind? Because they are like you?
They aren't, they use weapons as intimidation, are you familiar with how they destabilized Lebanon, Yemen, Iraq.
Would it occur to you to have IRGC soldiers in Iraq training locals to plant IEDs to kill Americans?
You dont know them, what we do know is that they lie and kill.
They arent going about their happy way, they are expansionistic. They want a free hand to harm and retaliate as needed.
They would absolutely give the Huthis a nuke to shoot first at Israel.

I still don't get it.
America can have completely destroyed it back in June of 2025, but that doesn't mean Iran couldn't have been in the process of rebuilding it when we struck a month ago.
Both things can be true.
We blew it up. Saw that Iran was rebuilding it, and said "frick it, we'll make sure they get the message this time".
This timeline doesn't require a 150 IQ to recognize, and I'd argue that people are purposefully misunderstanding it to make political points.
This is my understanding form what the Trump admin has put out. We can disagree with the decision and the logic, but any confusion, I think, comes from the media purposefully trying to make this look like a clusterfrick.
I'm not so dumb to think that nothing ever goes the way we don't expect it too, but I also don't think the worlds most powerful military just stumbled into Iran with no plans.

Probably not. Now...there is a very real thing where some people have such an ego that they might get some twisted satisfaction when things go bad because it proves them right. I suspect most people who were against this war take no pleasure in being right if things go wrong because something of this magnitude can actually affect everyone in the entire world. I'd take being wrong and eating crow over real time events getting worse 100 percent of the time.

Sure and there is nothing wrong with stating that you simply misspoke or didn't adequately communicate your thoughts. At that point a rational person clarifies their statements to remove ambiguity, not deny they ever said it and dig in. If there is one place where we can be comfortably be humble and admit we're wrong it's on a mostly antonymous forum. If you can't have humility here where else can you do it? As much as I've posted here there are numerous times where I said something too quickly and pulled the immediate self own
And the lesson there...I actually like when people call me out in those moments. That's something more people should embrace IMO. "Being right" is an underrated trait..or perhaps more accurately stated wanting to always "be right" when the evidence doesn't support your claim is silly. Acknowledge the mistake and move on. And give credit to the person that corrected you.

Asymmetric warfare and influence is just not the same as WMDs or launching nuclear war.

States use proxies to avoid direct escalation. The idea that they’d hand a nuclear weapon to the Houthis (something they could never control, deny, or walk back) isn’t realistic. The moment a nuke goes off, Iran gets annihilated. They know that.

The build up of force in the area gave ample time for at least some strategy to be developed. We didn't just show up on a whim with 36 hours notice and start blowing things up. There is definitely some strategy. Whether it's a viable strategy remains to be seen. We've had some success that can't be denied. What it means long term...none of us can predict the future.

I agree with you for actual people that live here, though I'm quite sure that some foreign troll factory has at least some presence here, and indeed most forums.

To your point being correct is independent of the personal views or even intelligence of the parties involved.
Someone with an IQ of 150 could be dead wrong and someone with an IQ of 80 could be right.
There is a story of a scientist who paid a fisherman to take him out to sea so he could better see the stars.
He berates him for being illiterate, but when a storm comes up and the fisherman says the boat is sinking, we will need to swim to shore... the scientist says... but I dont know how to swim.
Knowledge exists without regard to the holder.

There are likely a handful of foreign people here. And that could probably get solved by AI by some recency bias. I didn't post opinions about Les Miles in 2010 as part of a conspiracy to undermine a political movement s whole generation later.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
MY FOLLOW UP POST:

Our duly elected President is Commander in Chief and he has made the decisions. The US military has given the orders. Our men and women in uniform are in harms way. As a Veteran, I have served under Presidents that I did not care for. But, it doesn’t matter. No matter who was President in a time of armed conflict, I am always on the side of the Red, White and Blue.
Some on this message board come across as Iranian sympathizers or maybe just general pieces of shite with their fricked up opinions and criticisms of how the wartime/conflict with Iran is going. Everyone from the President down to Private potato peeler is doing the best job they can.
Maybe take a break from the board and figure out how to go frick yourselves.

Nah. Just pointing out that your little made-up scenario about Iranian sympathizers is retarded.
