With all of those statements considered it's not unreasonable to question the stated reason for this war.

But we're stuck in it now and can't change the past. We can only hope for a quick resolution that might have some net benefit eventually. I was initially optimistic even if I disagreed with joining Israel in the initial attacks. The longer this drags out the worse things will get for the entire world.

Pretty much.

You can disagree with the war, but they’re not just some unproblematic government. Granted you could say that about a lot of the Middle East.

Do you not?
They are the sole sponsor of:
Lebanese Hezbollah,
Hamas, funding, weapons, and training, with support estimates ranging from $100 million to $350 million annually
Palestinian Islamic Jihad,
The Houthis in Yemen,
Iraqi Shiite militias.

They send drone and missile parts, send IRGC trainers, financial support with oil revenues etc...

I have no love at all for their regime, BUT I’m against us getting involved.
2 things can be true at once and I hope you understand that.

I do. I was asking davyjones. He said no one is stating that people are literally rooting for a terrorist regime.

I would ask that he read the thread title and simply substitute the word Iran with terrorist regime. The literal thread title if you think Iran is a terrorist regime is people literally claiming that other posters here are rooting for a terrorist regime. That seems very clear to me. It's rather disturbing that this isn't immediately evident to davy....

The only way his statement would even make sense would be to now claim that he doesn't think that Iran is a terrorist regime.

Are you starting to understand the level of illiteracy and insanity we're surrounded by yet?

This is true but China has been providing fentanyl to Mexican cartels which kill Americans. Thats terrorism too, and we’re sure as hell not poking that bear.

This is something I can engage with. It's more than we get in other threads, so it at least opens a discussion. I wish more people would clearly lay out their argument this way!

The source is the Israel Atomic Energy Commission. The range would probably be from a few months to a couple years, but that would be extremely difficult to know with any certainty at this stage.

You’ve gotten it so screwed up and broken, referring specifically to only my own commentary, that I would be carrying on a totally different conversation with you. Which makes zero sense. I can’t help someone screwing up the discussion topic.

The point I’m making is that the idea that we have to intervene is because they’re a terrorist funding country is a fallacy.
It’s a moot point when you have other global players/cells, many of which are involved in our own government with a vested interest in bringing down our Republic.

No. That’s just an attempt to sell it to the average American. That’s not the real reason we attacked them.

Or we’ve seen this before. Has nothing to do with Trump. Any boots in the Middle East is what I personally against. If he can get what’s needed with out that great. And yes I’ve spent a deployment in the Middle East and screw that place!

Unfortunately people have fallen for the political football, prison of two ideas programming.
The majority now see things in black and white terms due to the purposeful dumbing down of our society and the assholes calling the shots are having a field day with it.

What could be more on topic than literally referencing the subject of the topic.

If you think Iran is a terrorist regime then it makes for a pretty simple substitution exercise to realize your claim is immediately absurd. You say no one is claiming people support a terrorist regime. It's literally the subject of the topic. Unless of course you personally don't think Iran is a terrorist regime.

So I'll ask again. Do you think Iran is a terrorist regime. You can clear up your thoughts with a simple response to that question. Otherwise the rest of else will be left to wonder if you're illiterate, insane or both. Help fix your cherished relationship and provide clarity.

What kind of idiotic question is “do you think Iran is a terrorist regime”?? I can assure you, my answer to that is the same as 98% of the rest of us sane and rational people. Are we gonna see anymore begging for the obvious answers to obvious questions??

That’s not the real reason we attacked them.

They were sprinting to a nuclear weapon, they had lied about their intentions from the start.

That is 1000% why we went to war, because they have a hostile history with the US, and we did not want them to have nukes.

Anything else is delusional.

The simple answer is that was enough.

Can your worldview survive the truth?

Be honest with yourself. You may not agree with us going in, but thats why we went in when we did.

It may turn out bad, I hope it doesn't. I dont think in anyway we should go on the ground.

But thats the truth, exactly what the administration said. If Iran had stood down from nuclear weapons there would not have been a war that day.

Maybe later, who knows. But can you at least admit Iran was sprinting to a bomb after having lied for decades.
