Good to see Trump and Netanyahu teaming up to weaken the evil Iranian regime.

 

Also amusing to see the "progressives" siding with the prehistoric tyrannical Iranian regime as I predicted they would. 😄

Who have you seen siding with Iran?I haven’t seen that…

big mistake, now China, Russia and Turkey will back Iran, let the war began

Why do you think this? Putin for sure won't do anything nor will China. If anything now would be a good time for China to invade Taiwan. As for Turkey why?

it amaze me how people think war is funny

China is going to abandon US and European markets to save Iran? I think not. 

 

There is significant risk of terrorist strikes and dirty-bombs and whatnot, but strikes and dirty-bombs are better than nuclear war.

I am only saying there has been no positive confirmation from Trump or elsewhere that those bombs were used -- they could have bombed all the Fordo entrances with more conventional weapons.

 

 

The Israelis could have bombed the Fordo entrances without help from the US. In fact they probably already have. One needs to have been living in a cave to not know that this MOP weapon is the only one that penetrate into the bunker. And I've just found this on the BBC:

 

'US officials have confirmed to the BBC's partner CBS News that MOPs were used in the strikes, with two for each target struck'.

If you're honestly a new member and not just some reboot, then rest assured there are some to-the-bone morons on this forum. Every thumbs down I get for this post is one of them.

Trump did what needed to be done, congrats to the USA.

Absolutely done and dusted. Except for the endless war that the US just started.

[dinsdale]

Be interesting to see if Iran launches a missile attack on Israel today. Been pretty quiet on that front for a while.

Iran is saying it hasn't been destroyed. As I said above we'll have to wait and see.

Maybe the satellite photos won't show anything, since these bombs explode underground -- and thus maybe no crater to see. Iran's kinda stupid -- they should have said, "all destroyed; no more bomb making efforts from us." Now, maybe they're in for a reattack...

 

By the way, Trump did follow the rules and notified Congress before the attack, as he called the senior members of the Senate and House. (Thune and Johnson). All that's required.

And now even this President joins the ranks of war mongers driven by others

 

Pity he never read John Quincy Adams speech ( quoted in part... link of full speech at end) 

 

What has America done for the benefit of mankind?

 

She has abstained from interference in the concerns of others, even when conflict has been for principles to which she clings,
as to the last vital drop that visits the heart.

But she goes not abroad, in search of monsters to destroy.

Like a soused thug at a bar who sees everything in black and white before throwing insults as other viewpoints and asking differing opinions to step outside, this oversimplifies a complex geopolitical issue into a black-and-white narrative, which can be dangerous. It ignores nuances like Iran's internal dynamics, regional alliances, and the broader consequences of military action. Such polarized views risk escalating tensions and misrepresenting motives, as global events involve layers of history, culture, and strategy that defy simplistic "good vs. evil" framing.

Denying the most dangerous regime on earth the capability of making the most dangerous weapon on earth isn't how I would define war mongering.

But at the end of the day, when people are trying to destroy the world as you know it, one does have to pick sides.

How many wars have Iran waged in the last 40yrs compared to the USA?

Israel has a problem with iran, nobody else does, and the US is bibi's puppet

[sqwakvfr]

Read a post from Trump's favorite guy on Fox, Hannity, that 6 GBU-57 were dropped.  That is 180,000 lbs dropped on Iran.  It sounds good but have to wait for the BDA (Bomb Damage Assessement).

A better question would be how many terrorist actions has Iran carried out and funded? This is not a country that should have nukes.

President Trump could potentially be impeached for bombing Iran without congressional approval, as it may violate the U.S. Constitution, which grants Congress the sole power to declare war (Article I, Section 8). The War Powers Resolution of 1973 further requires presidential notification to Congress within 48 hours of military action and limits such actions to 60-90 days without congressional authorization.

Did Obama have approval for vapourising 40 people at a wedding?

Yeah, then explain how and why we entered WWI -- with the loss of 100,000 troops. Would have been better if we had minded our own business; then, in all probability, the war would have ended in a near draw. Meaning, no WWII.
