After Iran calls his bluff, Trump will have no leverage at all.



Ummmm. Our military is loaded and in range to hit them hard. Iran has NO ability to threaten US soil.
Our leadership and citizens are safe...theirs, not so much.

Or ... we solve this issue for good and lots of problems could go away . Korea can’t support Iran in nuclear, Syria backer no more, Palestine financier -poof ! . The amount of Americans that have died by their proxies is tremendous on its own . So cute this issue and move on

The people trading with Iran are and have been a bunch of spineless pussies of over a century. They will not do shite.

No. I do my deals out of MY interest.

The interest the US has in Iran is none that I see. The US has nothing at all to gain from a war with Iran.

Why do you want a war with them?

I don't. You said we shouldn't do anything to Iran because it will make the EU and Japan mad.

Again, so fricking what?

Every one of your posts you argue for not doing something because it might make someone else mad. That's about the most asinine reason not to do something I've ever heard when it comes to securing US interests.

Pick one...

A. Take out the site that fired the missile.

B-Take out Iran's entire Navy

C-Destroy some of Iran's refineries.

D-Take out key government buildings in Tehran

E-Bomb nuclear testing/development sites


Why pick one?

We have entire runways full of unused Fighters and bombers. Fuel them up and let's go.

Iran and SA getting into a nuclear exchange would not be in our interest. Iran with nukes at all is antithetical to US interests. Iran stoking up terror cells is not in US interest.

They could and probably have bought them from Pakistan already. Now there is stable nuclear power!!!! and not a one of you whine about their nuclear arsenal. Hell they hide OBL and we never did anything to them.

No I said one of the many consequences would be to interrupt trade between the EU and Japan and Iran. You tell me what you think their reaction might be.

Iran striking SA will never happen, all of the bluster aside. Medina and Mecca makes that impossible. Israel on the other hand...

They'll get angry, write many strongly worded letters, and do nothing else because they have zero leverage.

No, you didn't "FIFY". Your previous posts on this subject make it perfectly clear you make your decisions based on the opinions of other people/countries.

frick that.

Are you certain that the USA would be able to accurately identify Iran as the perpetrator?



When they captured our sailors?
When they shot down the drone?
Or the numerous other incidents when they claimed credit?
