All Activity

Trump isn’t up for election. You need to really reflect on how much of a threat Iran is and what would happen if we let them get a nuke. And you know how I know they have them? Not a PEEP from the IAEA or UN that they don’t and not a PEEP from the regime denying they have them the way that Iraq did. This isn’t Iraq.

Any pro-Constitution MAGA rule of law types want to point out that this was blatantly unconstitutional?

Christian Benford and Terrel Bernard are up there for me.

They didn’t attack us. Why are we attacking them? I don’t care about Israel. America First.

Did he just bomb France? You're having a very hard time understanding the dynamics here. No one said Trump is Ghandi. This is Iran. They’ve started the war with the West in 1979. Funding terror. Pursuing nukes. Attacking Israel. Attacking us. They are number 2 of top 3 threats on Earth. NK Iran CCP

The only silver lining is that Tucker Carlson and Tulsi Gabbard are probably seething right now

Have you seen something that suggests the Saudis are pursuing nukes or are you just being excitable? I just looked at Drudge. The reference you have mentioned also states “State TV claims…”. That is what you are running with? Hoo boy.

Not true. Action is limited to disputed areas. Also, Israel has not been invaded by a state actor since the early 70s, at which point I acknowledge that it considered using a nuke.

Oh, it’s not that. It’s that I was correct all along in calling out Trump’s lie that he was the president of peace.

Oh interesting. Israel says, what if you just use the terrorist groups you fund to do it? Israel has been bombed for 2 weeks. How many nukes did they launch? Pakistan and India - doesn’t stop them. Good thing Trump defused that.

If you think we're bombing the Saudis when they try to get their hands on one I have a bridge to sell you. By your logic, too, we should incinerate Dimona next. Then they better get it. Now.

If uranium was recently moved, Israel knows about it.

And what does it prove if we don't have those sleeper cells? That all of the hand wringing about the border was BS? Or that Trump really effed up when he didn't build the big beautiful wall (which MAGA conveniently seems to have forgotten)?

Yes, this is a thing that dumb people think. But in the real world, this action, like the US stepping back from global hegemony, only incentivizes nuclear proliferation. Countries with nukes generally don’t get invaded. Countries protected by countries with nukes generally don’t get invaded.

Except that the promise of action is now on the table for states that pursue nukes. We’ll see.

Interesting thought there. Drudge has a reference to Iran indicating that the enriched uranium was moved in advance of the site and that there is no leak. I wonder whether we can determine the success (or lack thereof) of the strike by determining whether there is a radiation spike in the area of the bombings. If there is no spike, does it mean that either that the facility is intact, or that the uranium was moved in advance? Both options are problems, but especially the second one, because then we're going to have to find out where the eff that uranium is at before it becomes a dirty bomb. The bet here is that if it was moved, it's in Pakistan.

It’s ok that you think WW3 is here. I wouldn’t call it cute, but it’s fine. It probably goes hand in hand with the global economical meltdown you are sure happened earlier this year.

It’s the opposite. You let Iran have them, everyone can have them. Especially in light of this crisis. Good thing our immigration policy has been tight the last 4 years.

Had the exact same thought. Who knew 47 is a Trekkie?

The MAGA ideology everyone! It’s totally not a cult!

And yet Trump befriended the North Koreans. And we have thousands of nukes. They're principally defensive weapons. We'll see in the days and weeks ahead whether bombing the Iranians was the right call. A lot turns on Hormuz.

It’s cute that you think Iran isn’t going to retaliate!

Gotta think that lots of countries are thinking of starting nuclear weapons programs now. If no deal can be trusted, and you can be bombed and attacked for not having nukes even as you are negotiating a potential nuclear treaty, the only logical solution is to get nukes to prevent bombings. We’re not bombing North Korea are we? Pakistan? Everyone is going to want nukes to protect themselves now.
