@iamthe99 Not to mention that a former Israeli defense minister publicly blurted out that not only were they backing Hamas but also ISIS. Something that has been speculated for years now.
All Trump is doing is doing the bidding of Israel, which is what Biden did and basically all presidents do because it's a major priority.
Anyone who thinks a U.S. president is going to avoid that is kidding themselves. Trump is just like all the rest. There's no truly "anti-war" president.
Meanwhile people are trying to convince themselves they hate Iran for some reason. I hate to give credit to Tucker Carlson, but he was totally right in his "debate" with Ted Cruz. People don't even know anything about the country they want to bomb. That's American foreign policy in a nutshell.
@WestonTexan I'm not making excuses .. both sides have fault in this. It's you who does not seem to grasp that.
Claiming ethnic cleansing without recognizing Palestinians have harbored and tolerated Hamas and its forbears for decades and the impact that has had in fueling the on-going conflict is about as blind as you can be to reality.
Oct 7th proves that .. 1200 killed, still with people held captive .. and what you are seeing from Israel is directly in response. It is Hamas who hides in hospitals, churches, schools etc among the citizens of Gaza .. using them as a shield like cowards after their terrorist acts .. not just now but throughout the history of this conflict. The two sides have traded such blows for decades longer than the year or two you have been an "adult" .. so I am considering the whole story .. not just the popular one among self-righteous, ill-informed youth.
@BrandNewMan If you were truly considering the whole story, you'd know that over the years, Israel has killed far more Palestinians than they have of Israelis and that Israel has slowly whittled away Palestinian territory and kept them in what is essentially an open-air prison in Gaza and destroyed and taken over homes in the West Bank. Hamas didn't come out of nowhere, yet those who want to fault Hamas for the entire conflict seem to believe that they did.
50,000+ Palestinians have been killed since October 7th. It has gone far beyond any kind of justifiable response. There is no defending it.
@WestonTexan I said there was fault on both sides .. but again .. Hamas brought this on Palestine. It is NOT simply Israel acting out.
I agree some of this has gone beyond a proportional response. Realistically .. Hamas may finally have pushed Israel to the point where they have decided proportional responses are no longer enough. The diplomacy and other actions over the years have not deterred Hamas .. Oct 7th proved that. What is your expectation of Hamas /Gaza to bring change from their side to break this cycle of perpetual conflict? It cannot all fall on Israel .. they have to be accountable as well.
The peace is SO BIG and SO BEAUTIFUL honestly this amount of PEACE has never been seen before and it will never be seen again. There is so much peace all over the world that Iran is celebrating, you know that? They're celebrating. Big, fiery, miraculous explosions everywhere in celebration of PEACE. In fact I heard they're renaming Netanz to "Netan ze hair of my chinny chin chin will you ever have nukes", how do ya like that? Of course the LIBERAL MEDIA and CLINTON NEWS NETWORK are trying to GASLIGHT AMERICA and make us believe that the US blew up those sites, oh boy I tell ya, they even say Trump is some kind of p***phile. I'll tell you what, if Trump was a p***phile he'd be the BEST one there is, he's just that good. And by the way, you saw his administration holding the Epstein list at that press conference. CLEAR, UNADULTERATED, MANIPULATION, THAT'S WHAT THIS COUNTRY IS ABOUT!!! PROJECT 2025 MAKE THE CATS EAT THE FOREIGNERS THIS TIME!!! I SWEAR THE SOUP SAYS THINGS TO ME IN THE MORNING AND IT'S HORRIFYING!!! NOT EVEN ALPHABET SOUP!!! IT'S GUMBOOOOOOOO!!! 🇺🇲🧨🇺🇲✨🇺🇲🎉🇺🇲💥🇺🇲💢🇺🇲💯🇺🇲🍑💨
@RedBaron I mean in the span of what a little over 24 hours we have gone from the US bombing Iran, Trump claiming it was mission accomplished and one and done. A few hours later he is babbling about regime change and "Make Iran Great again" whatever that is and now he declared a unilateral ceasefire that nobody is following. I don't even know if he can make up his mind what he wants.
There are about 30 years of news clips where Israel has been saying Iran is just months and weeks away from having a nuclear weapon....almost 30 years worth. Israel finally found someone gullible enough. As Kamala stated....and proved...everyone knows how to manipulate trump.
Which is the worse step toward a global conflict ..
- Bombing Iranian uranium enrichment sites to disrupt their ability to achieve a nuclear weapon (Trump)..
Or ..
Giving Iran billions and billions of dollars with which they could work toward developing a nuclear bomb, knowing full well they are highly likely to use it if successful (Obama/Biden) ??
@greensnacks Divide and conquer has been in progress since at least 2016 now, though... and, we can't blame ALL that on Trump.
I mean, the British are busy trying to kill a few thousand elderly and disabled by forcing them to work themselves literally to death - because they decided that people in London, who do desk jobs, are living into their 70's... and we can't afford to pay them their pensions from the age of 65.
As for the disabled, they want to take away the money they give them to live independent lives, with the view that it will force more disabled people to work - not sure how when those who're already working will lose their cars and whatever other support they were using that money for to enable them to work as they are right now.
@meJess It didn't prevent anything. The intelligence community had already assessed the threat posed by Iran, and determined they were years away from a functional nuclear missile. Plenty of time to do it the diplomatic way. Now, instead, we've angered Iran, and as the nasty yellow frosting on this stinky brown cake, we've managed to upset Russia as well. And guess what? They've offered to provide Iran with the very thing you were hoping to keep out of their hands. Nuclear weapons.
Congratulations. You played yourself. Enjoy the apocalypse.
The question should read. What did the 12 years of O’Biden appeasement and cow towing toward the psychopathic religious zealots mullahs within Iran result in?
What did trusting such a regime actually accomplish? Did throwing billions of dollars at Iran make the region and the world safer or more dangerous? What sense did it make to make Iran rich and more powerful? Is accepting a nuclear Iran sane and or rationale?
The seeds for WW3 were planted a very long time ago by leftist globalista leaders in Europe and throughout the world. These people want to tear western civilization to shreds and use radical Islamists to help them do it.
@LordShadowfire Is this posted related to the bombing of Iran? While war with other countries was not included in Plan 2025, and President Trump campaign was bias against international conflict, I'm not disappointed that the authoritarian regime was dealt a setback with our help.
@MoveAlong no, everyone in all militaries doesn't work like that. Only the USA spends billions on "think tanks". Only the USA spends so much on war and decides ahead of time they're going to dominate everywhere. Everyone sure doesn't. But everyone hears you project. And everyone is shocked.
@MoveAlong Walmart is calling you and want you to return the defective brain ($1.25) that was installed in your head by your parents as it was made in China.
Meanwhile, Trump's own Director of National Intelligence:
The IC continues to assess that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon and Supreme Leader Khamenei has not authorized the nuclear weapons program that he suspended in 2003. The IC continues to monitor closely if Tehran decides to reauthorize its nuclear weapons program.
From Tulsi... "The dishonest media is intentionally taking my testimony out of context and spreading fake news as a way to manufacture division," Gabbard wrote. "America has intelligence that Iran is at the point that it can produce a nuclear weapon within weeks to months, if they decide to finalize the assembly. President Trump has been clear that can't happen, and I agree."
Of course, other unnamed sources say there was no evidence...can you say Adam Schiff's mythical anonymous whistle blower?
LOL! Looks like Trump's pre-emptive strike had the desired effect! A cease fire to go into effect tonight! And, it looks like Trump will be nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize! Is your head about to explode?
They could totally have known. Nobody thinks they ever voted for peace. No third party,? You were behind every killing.. the nation arms Israel without a significant amount of regrets! Booooom. Unprovoking us all!
@calicuz Yes, Iran has for decades been close to finally acquiring nuclear weapons.
Were it not for airstrikes, assassinations, cyber attacks and sabotage working against Iran, they would have likely long ago had the nuclear weapons to terrorize the world.
Israel has been keeping Iran's threat contained for quite some time.
Here's a list of some fairly recent actions (that we know of) taken against the Iranian nuclear program to slow their progress:
1. 2010 – Stuxnet Cyberattack The Stuxnet worm was a highly sophisticated cyberattack on Iran’s Natanz nuclear facility. It targeted the centrifuges used to enrich uranium, causing significant disruption and damage to Iran’s nuclear program. It is widely believed that the United States and Israel were behind the attack, marking one of the first major uses of cyberwarfare on a nation’s infrastructure.
2. 2007-2010 – Assassinations of Iranian Nuclear Scientists A series of targeted killings took place between 2007 and 2010, with several key Iranian nuclear scientists being assassinated. These deaths were widely attributed to Israeli intelligence (Mossad), with the aim of slowing Iran's nuclear development. Notably, Mostafa Ahmadi-Roshan (2012) and Majid Shahriari (2010) were among the victims.
3. 2012 – Cyberattack (Flame Virus) The Flame virus was discovered in 2012 and is believed to have been another covert cyberattack against Iran’s nuclear infrastructure. Unlike Stuxnet, which physically damaged equipment, Flame was designed to spy and collect intelligence on Iran's nuclear operations. It is part of the broader cyber conflict targeting Iran’s technological and military capabilities.
4. 2018 – Israeli Airstrikes on Iranian Targets in Syria Although this wasn’t a direct attack on Iranian soil, Israel conducted several airstrikes in Syria aimed at Iranian military assets, including weapons shipments and nuclear-related facilities. These strikes were part of Israel's strategy to prevent Iran from establishing a permanent military presence in Syria and developing nuclear weapons capabilities in the region.
5. 2020 – Assassination of Nuclear Scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh In November 2020, Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, a leading scientist in Iran's nuclear program, was assassinated in a highly coordinated attack near Tehran. The assassination was widely attributed to Israel's Mossad, and Fakhrizadeh's death was seen as a major setback for Iran's nuclear ambitions.
6. 2021 – Sabotage at Natanz Nuclear Facility In April 2021, a sabotage operation at Iran’s Natanz nuclear facility caused a significant explosion that damaged an underground centrifuge hall. Iran accused Israel of being behind the attack, although no country officially took responsibility. The sabotage was part of a series of covert operations aimed at delaying Iran's nuclear progress.
7. 2022 – Ongoing Cyberattacks and Sabotage In 2022, Iran reported a series of attacks on its nuclear infrastructure, many of which were attributed to cyberattacks or sabotage. These attacks targeted both physical and digital components of Iran's nuclear program. Israel is widely believed to be behind many of these covert operations aimed at undermining Iran's nuclear advancements.
@Darksideinthenight2 It's over. Yes they may try and hit back to save face, but Trump will hit them exponentially harder and they know it. The credible threat from Iran has to be the people who came in illegally under the hapless Biden regime. Policies that kept our borders open are a far bigger threat than what ever is left of Iran can pose.
