I saw the statement you’re referencing I think.

Didn’t the reason they give in it was basically that Trump wanted to do something when the initial uprisings started but he didn’t have assurances from our military leaders about their effectiveness since most of our planning and assets at the time were dedicated to snatching Maduro in his underwear?

Cool. I didn’t even know a statement was released but it’s good to know that I’m right again.

This war has been raging since 1979.

And its been largely ignored since then, even when Americans have died.

Anyone that thinks the war started last friday need to pick up a history book.

Israel has been at war to defend it's citizens since it's existence.

There is nothing peaceful about Islam. Nothing. Those who tout it as such are just cover for the ones who do the bidding.

Watch where you cast stones. Bill Clinton was POTUS and cheated on his wife, as did Kennedy and Swallwell had Fang Fang.

But unlike those above, he realized he had problems and reformed. Comparing his success to that of Austin, Hegseth appears far more competent.

Thomas Jefferson and James Madison can attest to that.

It would seem pretty obvious. He told them not to start killing civilians and they slaughtered thousands of them. I would guarantee that Trump wanted to go whip their frickin asses immediately. We didn't have the assets in place to do so though.

The proper way to view success or failure of this depends on what the new leadership of Iran ends up being.


Another data set to consider is how much you leftists complain.

Since forever. And the funny thing is that typically I would say that I want us to stay the frick out of the middle east and not get involved in their bullshite. But for me it's different if we are talking about beating the brakes off the Iranian regime. frick those mother frickers. The US has beef with those bastards and it's high time we finish it.

THEN get the frick out of there and stay out of their business.

You should go to The White House FB post of Hegseth PC and look at the names of the people shitting on Israel co-opting America. Very clear by just looking at their names why they feel that way.

I'm starting to understand why the EU chose radical Muslims as their dependent needy immigrant of choice to mass import.

It’s so fricking nice to have men of courage and actual substance in charge of important things again.
And it blows my mind that when Biden got into office they were saying that the adults were back in charge. GMAFB.

We could bomb any non nuclear power and take their leadership out anywhere in the world. It’s the lack of a plan as to what happens after that.

Fair enough.

We are not “after that” yet, though, so how are you concluding that there is no plan:
