‘I Have Agreed to Talk’

You loons don't remember anything. Obama promised that if Obamacare would lower the cost of health insurance by $2500 dollars a year. You don't remember that? Google it.

He said our health care premiums would be cheaper than our phone bills

Rates just went up at the minimum of 20% again
 
One day after launching strikes on Iran that killed Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and embroiled the region in war, President Trump told me this morning that the country’s new leadership wants to talk with him and that he plans to do so.

“They want to talk, and I have agreed to talk, so I will be talking to them. They should have done it sooner. They should have given what was very practical and easy to do sooner. They waited too long,” Trump told me in a phone call from his Mar-a-Lago resort shortly before 9:30 a.m.


This may surprise trump devotees, many of whom won't believe this, but I wish we could trust anything coming from the regime regarding.......well........anything. But we can't.

Don says the Iranians should have agreed to talk sooner. Has he already forgotten they were talking to the US? That's if you consider any sort of serious negotiations could have been taking place with the US being represented by Ivanka's husband (who was in charge of Middle East peace not so long ago) and one of trump's golfing buddies. Iran having offered to make a deal that exceeded the terms of the JCPOA with respect to uranium enrichment.

The thing is there has to be two willing parties to reach a negotiated deal. But while Iran thought it was negotiating the terms of its nuclear weapons development Don had already decided he favored war over any alternative that could be settled through talks. Of all the skins he has shed during trump 2.0 he has shed his non-interventionist one for that of a war monger.
He said the new regime, not "the Iranians" should have asked to talk sooner.

The new regime should understand the consequences of not negotiating seriously, so any talks can be much more productive.

What new regime? So many of the former government officials were killed there is no new regime. When negotiations were ongoing regarding Iran's uranium enrichment, WHICH THEY OFFERED TO HALT, the old regime was still in power/alive.

You sound as confused as Dotard.

Trumps strategy was brilliant

Dude, you posted an OP about Trump agreeing to talk with the new regime. What new regime did you mean?

The should have just halted uranium enrichment. Pretending the might halt it - any day now - if Trump gives them what they want right now fools nobody.

Well . . . almost nobody.
 

Was there an ‘imminent’ threat?​

To invoke self-defense, the U.N. Charter requires there to be an armed attack. Customary international law broadly accepts that this includes a right to use force against an imminent threat of an armed attack, which in turn raises the question of what counts as imminent.

Since the attack, the Trump administration has gestured toward two versions of this argument. One appears to rely on a very elastic definition, and one arguably appeared to rely on circular reasoning.

In a video on Saturday, Mr. Trump declared that the objective was “to defend the American people by eliminating imminent threats from the Iranian regime.” But he did not suggest that Iran was on the cusp of launching an armed attack before the strikes, instead saying it would be intolerable to allow it to build a nuclear weapon and long-range missiles.

On Monday, Marco Rubio, the secretary of state and national security adviser, told reporters that “there absolutely was an imminent threat.” He said the United States believed Israel was going to attack Iran, and if it did so, Iran would attack American bases, so the country joined Israel’s attack “proactively, in a defensive way, to prevent them from inflicting higher damage.”


Saying the rationale has shifted is the kind way to say it.
So what do you say say counts as "imminent" ? What's your definition ?

As it turns out that was a lie too.

A day after the attack, the son was the new leadership. Then he started acting out and had to be dealt with. He wouldn't have a leg to stand on in nogotiations now.
