Bad timing, but this needed to happen no doubt - Just imagine how strong Iran would have been if left alone for longer

They have been a few weeks away from nukes for 40
years, we definitely could not have let that happen.

Everyone who criticize this war has TDS. We should do more wars, like taking Canada and Greenland by force and colonize them like Puerto Rico

The only part of this plan that I don't like, is that the Dems would push to make them states.
And then swamp them to turn them blue. Canada wouldn't be hard at all in that regard.

Your first site doesn’t work, the second and third are from Israeli propaganda sites. Surely you could’ve found better sources.

Yep, he sank his entire 2nd term.

...and it was unforced.

He failed to recognize one of his biggest accomplishments was "no wars". When he proclaimed that it had great power and influence with voters. He correctly and against a Strong tide from the leadership in his own party campaigned against the stupidity of the Middle East wars.

He was sold a bill of goods by Israel and neocons that this would be quick painless and would usher in a new era for the Middle East with all credit going to Trump.

He swallowed the hook.

All of the money he got from Adelsons, Singer, etc. and you think he wasn't forced?

Many of us have said for a while, Trump's dad was super gung-ho Israel and so is he. They don't have to 'have something on him.' He wants to help them.

He came into office with a mandate and a mountain of political capital and he spent it all on Israel.

First site is paywalled. Plug it into an LLM and ask it what the link says 1:1. As for the other two: Google is free and you're welcome to use it yourself if you don't like my links

I asked you to back up your claim. Of course I could go find information but that onus is on you.

So who are your sources that convince you that Iran was not in position to rapidly produce a nuclear weapon??

You have no idea what the threat scenario was like. Or maybe you would enjoy griping at Trump for NOT doing ‘Something’ about it weeks earlier.

Dems ever give any reasonable thought to their gripes. Just attack DJT

I’m still furious.

It makes no sense.

I did, and you refused to engage with the material. Tell me why the information I provided is wrong instead of dismissing it with no argument. "I don't like your source" does not mean the information provided is wrong

Iran was kicked down the road for decades by Presidents who were afraid of the backlash.

Trump knew this could hurt his approval but did it anyway because it needed to be done.

Bill Clinton kicked the can down the road with Bin Laden and North Korea and now look what we got.

It actually does in this factory of lies. I can see you haven't been around here long, but 'fake news' is the general response you'll be getting if you post things that are uncomfortable to think about.
