Beirut Barracks Bombing (1983): A suicide truck bombing attributed to Iran-backed Hezbollah resulted in the deaths of 241 US service members.

Iraq War (2003-2011): A 2019 Pentagon report attributed the deaths of at least 603 US service members in Iraq to Iran-backed militants.

Jordan Drone Strike (January 2024): A drone attack by Iran-backed militants killed three US soldiers at a base in Jordan.

Other Attacks: Iran has been linked to numerous other attacks and assassination attempts against Americans. Hezbollah, an Iranian-backed group, has a history of attacks against the US and its allies, including attacks before 2001 that killed 286 Americans.



Thats right. They killed 3 Americans last year. So spare us your woe is me routines due to your TDS.

We are not at war. We are not in a war. But we are going to end their ability to create even more deaths by using nukes.

Might want to edit the title to make it more obvious for the Bernie Sanders crowd here.

It's not like we did not know that Iran was doing it.

When you say and preach death to America and you are killing our people, at some point you gotta believe that they mean it.

No nukes for Iran. Period.

And 10/7.

While not a specific attack on US citizens. They killed some in the process.

I'm sure Iran doesn't see it that way.

When you drop multiple mega-ton bombs on a country, you tend to be at war. When you claim you're doing so to destroy nuclear capabilities... and then you don't destroy said nuclear capabilities, what do you suspect will happen next? When Trump starts talking about "regime change", how do you suppose that's going to happen?

You act like we haven't see this same bullshite play out multiple times already. Why do you keep lapping up their lies?

Sounded like it was a cleansing of infidels if you are Muslims, murder if you are an infidel. Now it’s sounding like an a much needed arse kicking with a chance for 80% plus of their population to forge their own way hopefully

They didn't see it that way prior to having their nuke sites taken out.

Thus a point of the thread.

deaths in Iraq


A place we invaded and never should have been in the first place. You conveniently left this out along with the WMD lie to the American people. Second of all, the US attack on the Saddams minority Sunni people brought to power the majority Shia people which would then be more aligned with Iran. Another brilliant US regime change move.

The funny thing about our disastrous foreign policy is we are currently training these Iran-backed Iraqi militias.

Cool - the Saudi’s were responsible for 3000 people that died on 9/11. Do you want to invade them as well?

Also, how many deaths did American-backed militant groups cause to Iranians?

Go even further using JJ's "logic".

Al Qaeda/bin Laden was a CIA trained and backed organization that had US support throughout the 80s and 90s. Was he claiming that Ronald Reagan should be arrested for 9/11? Doubtful.

And sold weapons to Iran. I guess he's responsible for the US Embassy bombing in Beirut too.

Your post is retarded. You are mad at Iran for not sitting by and allowing US invading forces to stand by and destroy a country on its border for imperial reasons. Classic neocon level of stupidity. "But they killed some of our men of our massive army invading another country they should have never been".

How many of those deaths happened in America? How would you like for China to have bases everywhere over here and always started wars. We're not innocent and they're not coming here killing us. We're going over there where we have no business being.

You realize none of this would have or continue to happen if the USA stayed out of middle eastern affairs.
