Today, in line at Walmart I got to chatting with a seemingly pleasant older lady, As she commented on the Time cover (Michelle Obama) I quipped that I thought it was a shame the current first lady was largely ignored by the press, at which point a nasty look overtook her, and, scrunching her face in disgust said, and I quote: "I think she's ugly, and no one likes her husband" I shrugged, I know better than to engage these folks. It's great being no one. LOL. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxx Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 On 1/7/2020 at 8:09 AM, Foxx said: that is all well and good. however, you answered without answering the question. On 1/7/2020 at 8:51 AM, sherpa said: I did answer the question, though it isn't what Trump said. I said "if there is no military benefit to doing so." It's silly to get into hypotheticals, so I won't. Gaming this think before anything happens is a really bad idea, but......... Iranian "ammunition" is not a threat. The US' strategic interest in anything Iranian related would be twofold. One is to protect shipping, which would involve eliminating the threat to the Strait of Hormuz, Persian gulf and Northern Arabian Sea. The other is to disrupt and delay their nuclear weapons program, which is almost entirely deeply underground and probably, (I'm guessing here), location known. Tactically, in order to do that, you have to do what the US always does at the onset, which is to take out command and control and air defense capability related to those two objectives. None of that relates to cultural sites, and using such places to train terrorists or store ammunition, per your hypothetical, probably isn't important enough to worry about. Nonetheless, going after a cultural site is anathema to a professional military, which the US is. On 1/7/2020 at 9:50 AM, Foxx said: no, you did not answer the question. what you did was to create your own strawman and proceed to attempt to kill it. that is simply not being genuine. as you attempted to do here, in this subsequent response. i have the utmost respect for you, sherpa but my disagreement with you here has nothing to do with anything outside of the question that was asked and avoided. i shall ask it again, it really is pretty simple. two questions of which a simple yes or no to answer them is required. whereby opining after the fact in support of the direct answer is always acceptable in courteous discourse. "are you saying that Hezbollah and their ilk are not using cultural centers to house/train terrorists? nor are they using them for command control centers or to store ammunition?" also, not surprising @John Adams elected to not answer it but to tag along with your response. On 1/7/2020 at 10:39 AM, sherpa said: I have no idea, but I am not aware of them using Iranian locations for those activities. They export that kind of stuff to other places, or at least they have. You can't simply relocate command and control centers, and I doubt they would use such places as storage for any munitions that the world would care about. Their nuc stuff is deeply underground. Anyway, I've never been aware of any military value that would justify any strike on a cultural site there, but who knows. Either way, it was stupid thing for the president to say. Nothing gained, but a ton of speculation that puts us on the defense. The man is a massive unforced error source, and he hasn't figure it out. Such statements make military people cringe. Related, I think the US deployed six B-52's to Diego Garcia yesterday, which argues for a more strategic response, but that would just be a start. On 1/7/2020 at 11:30 AM, Foxx said: thank you. i also do not know with any certainty whether Hezbollah uses cultural centers to store command centers, train and house terrorists and/or to store munitions. however with that being said, i do remember it being pretty widely reported some time ago that Hamas used hospitals, schools and mosques to do exactly that in Palestine. as such, i don't think it a giant leap to think that other Iranian proxies would do the same. these are, after all, terrorist organizations who, due in large part to their diminutive stature, fight in asymmetrical ways to take away the advantage afforded to better equipped/organized militaries. many reasons why they would do this but first and foremost is so that these installations are hard targets in the world of public perception. this is exactly why Hamas, as a practice, shoots rockets from residential areas. it may have been a stupid thing for the President to say and i know many think he just spouts off at the mouth but i believe he was alluding to the fact that there are cultural centers being used for these purposes. and, i'm not saying they are but if indeed they are, all political correctness aside, then they are legitimate targets. On 1/7/2020 at 11:53 AM, sherpa said: I'm not going to quote the entire post, but what you are doing is expanding the thing beyond the Iranian borders. Everybody knows the use of human shields, cultural centers, hospitals and other sensitive areas that various groups use, knowing that such areas are almost always off limits to offensive response. My comments are strictly directed to Iranian soil, and they typically haven't done that. If the discussion expands to the entire world, this "trend" is certainly up for discussion, but I'm not going to comment on that. On 1/7/2020 at 12:13 PM, Foxx said: point taken. just to add an addendum to this exchange. https://twitter.com/JJCarafano/status/1214837598365110272 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdnlng Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 21 hours ago, sherpa said: I think you are right. The system our forefathers set up was incredibly prescient. There is a difference though, in seeking his removal or pointing out gross incompetence, and a stupid course that could lead to really serious problems. I'm just pointing out the incompetence. Removal is best done via elections. Out of curiosity what current potential opponent would you vote for over Trump? I'm looking for someone that would keep the economy going strong, finishing up trade deals that most likely will extend beyond 2020, continue our improved border security while simultaneously working on the issues of the day. Who is out there who could be trusted to continue his agenda? Trump spoke to the nation shortly after blowing up the Iranian general and claimed in doing so he was preventing a war between the USA and Iran. A few days later it would appear that was exactly what he did. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
