Not particularly, no. There isn’t a US presence of any appreciable size anywhere north of Iran at all, or east of Iran for many thousands of miles. We have token presence in Syria, our bases in Turkey and the Gulf States, and the Navy in the Indian Ocean/Diego Garcia though.

No. Would have happened a long time ago. They had plenty of chances too.

Iran is zealous but not insane.

The US isn’t goading them.
The US is explaining realpolitik to them.

You say an attack on our homeland is impossible…tell that to the millions of people we allowed into this country undocumented and the inability to trace the vast majority of them.
If you think our adversaries, especially Iran, did not take this opportunity to put people into our country to carry out an attack, then you are very ignorant my friend.
Will they be able to carry it out, I can’t say for sure. But to say it is impossible is laughable.

We have been giving the Taliban $45,000,000 every month since Biden took office and withdrew from Afghanistan.
And though that seems high I think you are still off by a factor of 10.
Over 21 billion dollars in various aid categories has been given to Afghanistan since August 2021 and that comes out to $450 + million per month.

Yes but it will be sponsored terrorism, not direct military attack
Posted on 6/17/25 at 9:25 pm to King of New Orleans
Yes, but more like some kind of radicalized nut job who acts alone but identifies with one of the terrorist groups and/or Iran or Gaza.
But that could happen anyway.

I think the op was talking about Iran or any country that screams death to America.

It’s already happening.
Going forward, cyber attacks have the potential to cripple a country more effectively than any truck bomb, random missile, or most other conventional threats.
It is more than possible to plunge an entire country into pre-industrial levels of productivity and security.
We may not hear about them, but these attacks are already being tested out.

Its amazing this hasn't happened yet. One thing we do know is that attempting to appease terrorist never works. So, if your real question is should we have taken this path if it means Iran terrorist might strike, hell yeah!
You can't negotiate or make deals with homicidal lunatics that belong to a death cult.
And you know what else??? If this happens, it won't be Trump's fault, it will be Biden’s fault for letting 12 million UNCHECKED illegals into this country.
Let's keep the eye on the ball here!

Trump saw the success of the Israelis strikes so he did a 180 and decided he wants a piece of the action. I don’t see Iran agreeing to give up nuclear technology, which appears to be the demand from Trump. The only other option now is TACO.
