Keep watching. This isn't a series where everything in know and the creator lays it all out. This has a number of evolving parts.

This definitely isn't a series that you can watch just one or two episodes and have enough info to make a decision.

I don't agree with him on everything but the evidence is one part. After watching it the only thing left to argue about it the why's and who are the bad guys. Which people are pals and which are not.

To be fair, men don't fight men out of their weight class.

Well the leaders forced on the people of Iran have been ruling for half a century, so I think you can choose a leader for someone else.

The reality is they driving the bus, and we along for the ride ... for whatever reason. So all this talk about negotiations is just talk.

So you are saying that the bus driver is afraid that a passenger along for the ride is going to put the bus in park? If they are dictating everything then why are they afraid Trump the puppet will end the war without permission?

I'm still waiting for the logical reason we are at war with Iran - we know it isn't nukes

---

You have been told many different reason. Why? Because there are many different reasons.

If you demand one reason, you are demanding that you are to be lied to. There isn't ONE reason.

Do you think any sane person doesn't want Iran's IRGC that rapes an murders its citizens every day to be overthrown?

Do you not think that when Iran is enriching Uranium way past the point that it is need for a nuclear reactor that they aren't working towards a nuclear bomb?

Do you not care that Iran was steadily stockpiling more and more missiles?

Do you not care that they were making steady progress towards ICBM's that could hit us in the future if they were not stopped?

Do you not want to limit China half price oil supplier? All China's influence outside of its region to continue to grow?

Do you not understand how losing the petrodollar would not just hurt but would truly be life changing in a bad way for the people of the USA?

Take your pick... sort them however you like. These are the reasons that we have been repeatedly told are the reasons.

The person talking the most since is Saudi Arabia's prince.

Pakistan and Yemen words should not even receive a response. Ignore them.

We (USA) is in a position to end the bullcrap that has been going on in the ME my entire life. If the regime change doesn't happen, which I think will happen, then this entire war has been for nothing. Just a very slight delay, basically kicking the can down the street again.

We've been bombing them, so they are clearly on our radar screen. And they are, unlike Kharg Island, very close to the Strait of Hormuz, each have airfields, and, maybe best of all, are claimed by the UAE. Iran seized them in 1971, but the UAE wants them back, so we could take them and say we are liberating them instead of seizing them.

---

I doubt strongly that the MEU will be heading into the Kharg Island also. Much to risky. It would be a 180 degree about face by the USA to go from trying to not have many military KIA to making a target of marines in contested areas where they have no place to hide.

Their true purpose... I have only a couple of guesses. But Kharg Island is almost certainly a diversion.

Yep it is going to be a bloodbath unfortunately. Just having a hard time seeing how this won't be.

---

There are well armed rebel factions in the Northwest of Iran and in the very Southeast part of Iran.

I mean, I could be wrong, but a pharmacist is supposed to be an expert on drug interactions. They're supposed to frickin know if a drug is dangerous or not.

---

Correct, they know more about drugs than the doctors prescribing them.

The Kharg thing almost feels like a distraction to me. My gut tells me we're planning an operation elsewhere and we want their attention on Kharg. I could be 100% wrong though

Same here. At first I thought we were trying to get them to not bomb it by us threatening to bomb it. Then we threatened to take it with troops. Either side could blow it up easily. I guess troops would narrow the IRGC's options on blowing it up. But at a huge risk.

IDK, what is the purpose of taking control of it according to the US? Protection??? Just seems like that would definitely make it a target when currently it doesn't seem to be a target.

So you think McCain was in favor of destroying the IRGC? The source of wars in the ME? McCain only wanted war with their proxies and very limited exchanges with Iran.
