If we do strike them I hope we utilize every single asset we moved into place. Make an example of them and show Russia/China exactly what we are capable of doing

Well all the assets seem to be in place.


Not quite, it doesn’t sound like.

Reporter: "Are you giving Iran any kind of deadline to make a deal before potentially taking military action?"

Donald Trump: "Only they know for sure."

Reporter: "Have you communicated that to them directly?"

Donald Trump: "Yeah, I have."

Reporter: "Mr. President, do you have a timeline for when you're going to pull back potentially the [U.S.] presence there?"

Donald Trump: "No, we’ll see how it all works out. You know, they have to float someplace, so they might as well float near Iran. But it’s a rough situation going on. So I stopped 837 people, as you know, last week from being hung. They were going to hang 830—it was all set. They were going to hang 837 people, and I told them if you do it, you’re going to pay a price like nobody’s ever paid before. And they pulled back; I appreciated that.

But a lot of people are being killed, so we’ll see what happens. I can say this: they do want to make a deal."

Could also be deception though. Make them think we aren’t ready yet.

Just checking. Is the Ayatollah still in hiding? If not, does the title need to be updated?

Ya, they were talking about opening talks with Iran, after the bombs had already been dropped on the nuke sites.

We have more than enough resources in place right now.

100% chance bombs drop in the next couple days

I still think it happens in the next few hours.

The Kid is finally going to get a chance at an intercept if this standoff goes hot.

What goes around comes around. After 4 years of the Americans testing their weapons on russians by way of Ukrainians. It's Russian turn now by way of iranians.

TAMPA, Fla. – Yesterday, Iran announced that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) is conducting a two-day live-fire naval exercise in the Strait of Hormuz scheduled to begin on Sunday. U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) urges the IRGC to conduct the announced naval exercise in a manner that is safe, professional and avoids unnecessary risk to freedom of navigation for international maritime traffic.

The Strait of Hormuz is an international sea passage and an essential trade corridor that supports regional economic prosperity. On any given day, roughly 100 of the world’s merchant vessels transit the narrow strait.

U.S. forces acknowledge Iran’s right to operate professionally in international airspace and waters.

Any unsafe and unprofessional behavior near U.S. forces, regional partners or commercial vessels increases risks of collision, escalation, and destabilization. CENTCOM will ensure the safety of U.S. personnel, ships, and aircraft operating in the Middle East.

We will not tolerate unsafe IRGC actions including overflight of U.S. military vessels engaged in flight operations, low-altitude or armed overflight of U.S. military assets when intentions are unclear, highspeed boat approaches on a collision course with U.S. military vessels, or weapons trained at U.S. forces.

The U.S. military has the most highly trained and lethal force in the world and will continue to operate with the highest levels of professionalism and adhere to international norms. Iran’s IRGC must do the same.

6 weeks ago there was hardly a peep concerning Iran. 4 weeks ago the White House received a certain visitor and all of the sudden, Iran was once again an imminent threat.

A few days later, peaceful protests began in Iran and quickly turned into violent conflicts with the Iranian government, and they began killing citizens. Unilaterally, it was determined that this was unacceptable and now we are on the brink of attacking Iran.

What is the SPECIFIC reason?
