Will The US Enter Into A War With Iran

[connda]

Obviously things are heating up in the Middle East with Israel bombing Iran.  However, Israel has asked the US to join in as an active participant.
Trump is his typical manner stated he won't, then maybe he will, then maybe he won't, then maybe he will.  

The current theme is the constant repetition of the phrase: "Iran can't have a nuclear bomb," even though Iran stated that it has no ambitions to build a nuclear bomb.
To me personally, this sound reminiscent to the Bush Administration repeating the phase: "Iraq has weapons of mass destruction."

The latter gave the US the excuse to "Shock & Awe" Iraq with bombing campaigns and the eventual invasion.
The repetition of the phrase "Iran can't have a nuclear bomb," is designed to create the same conditions for the US to enter an active hot-war with Iran even though no formal declaration of war has been voted on in Congress.  Again - the President by himself will take America to war with another country in the Middle East.  Do doubt the US will spend another 4 or 5 Trillion dollars on another forever war with Iran.
-or-
The Trump authorizes the Pentagon to simply drops nuclear bombs on Iran after which Trump will swagger and boast that he saved millions of US lives and trillions in US taxpayer money in the same manner as President Truman did after he bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki.  

So members of the AseanNow club of arm-chair generals - what say you?  Be brave and take the poll!

I believe that the US will nuke underground nuclear sites in Iran.  I give it a 50-50% chance that Tehran is nuked as well.
Once the US enters the war, it will directly lead to a conflict with Russia and China and will start a World War.

Agree Trump will have to ask Putin first.

Strange that such an important, world changing topic with worldwide implications doesn't pique the interests of posters here,

while when a trivial subject comes up Drow many replies, I should know, I have on this site for long, long time.

Nah, why would Trump get into a war with that lot ?

[novacova]

Nukes will most certainly not be initiated by the US anywhere in Iran. An extremely thin chance that Israel might if they get overwhelmed and see no other option for survival. The rest is just a guess, no one knows until an event happens.

Thanks Obama.

Trump is creating doubt in the Iranian leadership, and fear that the USA will participate. It is intended to push Iran into   honest  discussions on limiting its nuclear weapons  capability.

Doubt?? There is doubt that Trump knows what he's doing, there is doubt that anyone else knows what's going to happen and his flip-flopping/reversals on tariffs have created doubt in the minds of his MAGA goobers as well as normal people.

 

I don't suppose his poorly educated followers really knew what they were getting themselves into, unless it was to buy gold sneakers, NFT's or items made in China, under the guise of "Make America Great Again" – – a complete and utter liar and grifter and his fan base bought into it, hook, line and sinker.

 

I have never seen anything like it in my lifetime.

Nuclear weapons are not necessary to destroy Iran's underground nuclear facilities when bunker busting bombs can do the job. Neither are they necessary to destroy it's military machine.  So far Israel's air strikes are crippling the infrastructure and its military.  

Iran's shutting down of the internet is a positive sign for Israel.  The mullahs want to hide from their subjects how effective Israel's air strikes are, fearing the populace will demand a surrender.
