The complete internet blackout in Iran can work both ways


We can take the gloves off and nobody will know and can’t prove “war crimes”

Most likely. The airspace map is stacked. Iran and Israel is barren with a massive wall of planes around Iran.

This would be a very elaborate troll by orange if he doesnt act

Trumps track record on military action is pretty solid. He usually does what he says


This is also not Venezuela. There was very little pushback on that due to it being our hemisphere even though it was a heavy blow to China/Russia

Geopolitically, Iran is a bit dicier. Russia and China won’t like it and will likely supply arms to the regime. Israel may prefer a war torn and divided Iran over a new regime. Iran also while not a match for us is stronger militarily than Venezuela. I don’t think Trump backs down. But it will likely take a little longer to act because the intel needs to be solid and we have to ensure we don’t pop off a larger conflict.


This is spot on. Have to prepare for all contingencies. Can’t just go in guns a-blazing. Where to strike. How to strike. Minimize risks. Not hit civilians to give them a pulpit. And need to nail where leadership is.

Also, need to get communication back up so Iranians can communicate to push it over the top. We can’t do it alone and can only help give them courage to topple regime. Selected strikes can do that and will embolden citizens.

But we need to prepare for anything they can launch to other countries. Trump keeps how word but will be smart in how/when its done.

It takes as long as it takes. It sucks to say that if people are still being killed but we must have everything in place before we act. It is moving faster than I thought it would.

This doesn't make sense. Things can be recorded without an Internet connection

Really doesn't matter when Russia can veto anything which just is another example of how valuable the UN is

What exactly is he acting on that is affecting Americans? Or is he meddling in the Middle East like every other president his age has done for 30 years and wasting our tax money?

It was five days from the time we evaced the bases until the day we bombed the nuclear sites, and that was with a bunch of assets pre-staged in the region. We've pulled a lot of those assets since then, and we are scrambling to bring some back into the region. We are not as prepared this time as we were back in June.

It isn't just about what we do to strike Iran this time. We also have to account for any retaliation, and we just don't have the assets we had then to help if a bunch of shite gets thrown at Israel.
