Actually, people like YOU are why this country has taken a step or two backward.

Pummeling Iran is a no brainer that has almost nothing to do with Israel.

Was Israel going to go at it alone? And could we have stopped them?


No, but they got solid intel on the location of the Ayatollah and most of their leadership and decided to take him out. Without that intel we both probably wait till the following evening to start the war.

Case closed? 2nd attempt with war for Bibi.

Can of worms opened bc Iran has always been contained and No threat to America directly yet.

Everybody but Trump was smart enough not to open the can with understanding what that entails

Why would we want to stop Isreal? It was only a matter of time before Iran had nukes and would use them. Are we supposed to wait til they have them? Then what? The regime only cares about its survival and is willing to lie, cheat steal and kill in order for that to happen. No matter what their leaders said they were willing to do is just a lie, to buy time to meet their goals.

I thought that had to be an exaggeration but it’s not. Real smooth, Marco.

Why stop there?

What we really shouldn’t have done is replaced the democratically elected leader with the unpopular Shah. Perhaps we could have just dealt with that gov’t instead of overthrowing it to lead to a theocracy which we’ve hated for the last 50 years.

Our ME policy has fricking sucked dick for the last 80 years. We should do the opposite of whatever the prevailing sentiment is and we’d be in better shape.

The fact that very few of you Sensei viewers aren't pissed that this tiny nation of 9 million people, no natural resources and that lives off our taxpayers dictates our foreign policy is something to behold. End AIPAC

I have never seen a group of people literally see what their military can do to some degree and still remain the biggest gaping dry pussies of all time.

The entire region needs to be cleaned up so we can start sending people back, especially Germany and Italy who want to clean house.

Yall think it’s over? It’s not. We are just getting started.

This is not Israel's problem alone. This is the entire world's problem.

There is no chance for anything even resembling peace in the middle east with Iran acting the way it has for 45+ years...none.

If they can get back to some semblance of a civilized culture then not only is that region better off but the entire world is better off.

It's been past time to take care of them...we should have glassed that place as soon as the hostages came back home.

Just getting started is the problem with no apparent plan or end game as he showed today.
He has yet to answer anything, just bs time table.

But, did you see the gold curtains he picked out for his Ballroom?

They are getting started, you aren't doing sheet.

Who are you that the most powerful man in known history is to answer to you? He’s been elected, he has to answer to God for what he does now. Not some civilian with a shitty opinion.

Just curious.

I watched his pathetic talk about his ballroom instead of speaking on the fallen, and he will not be there when the caskets come home.

This is his war now, no more blame game, he did this to follow Bibi, he's no leader, he is pathetic.

But Trump said the strikes last year completely wiped out Iran’s nuclear research faxilities. If that’s the case haven’t we eliminated the threat to the US at that point??

Let me know when our troops touch down and we invade.

Other than that this isn’t a war friend.

We’ve lost soldiers. It’s war whether MAGA wants to admit it or not. We were told last year that the strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities were successful and ended their nuclear program. If that was true why are we involved at all with this?
