To say “ it’s only a war if there are boots on the ground” is like saying “I’m not cooking because I’m not using the oven”

[Conservative from Georgia]

The claim that we’re not at war with Iran, because USA and Iran are only killing each other by air is laughable and fringe.

Vladimir Putin used a “it’s not a war” claim under different pretenses. It’s what warmongers do to avoid embarrassment of being at war..

Equally, we can cook on the stove top, or outside with wood. And other ways.

Boots on the ground is a tactic, not a definition of war . War can be fought by air, sea or ground.

A country that bombs us by air would be committing an act of war. If we attack them and they attack us, and we attacked them, repeatedly, it’s still a war even by air.

There’s no standard of war nationally of internationally that says “boots on the ground” is a requirement. It’s a made up excuse by warmongers and the cult followers of their cult leader Donald Trump, Warmonger in Chief.

To say we aren't at war because we are only instigating it and funding it is wrong also.

Our boot in the mullah's ass is definitely war. Who said otherwise? Link?

Will you be sad when the Iranian people are free of the mullahs?

A completely irrelevant thought. Who cares what you call it

Well in that case, we have been at war with Iran since 1979.

On a larger scale, a good portion of the world has been at war with Iran for decades.
Iran also finances most of the nasties worldwide, as well as supplies them with weapons, and at the least ground level technology (especially in regard to IED's).

Most western nations are under the pressure from that war with concerns involving refugees from nations in turmoil associated with Iranian backed efforts. Our competitors globally are linked to efforts in Iran or support from their oil reserves.

So technically, if you want to suggest war is not confined to "boots on the ground", that involves cold wars as well as hot wars,
and we have been at war for quite some time with Iran.

Maybe this effort will be more productive than everything else we have tried and failed at previously.

I'm not sure the 45K US troops in the ME theater who are in harm's way would agree there are no boots on the ground.

I'm not sure you know what boots on the ground means

You aren't one of them and I assure you they know where they are and what they are doing.

Yes, it is a war.

Jihadists live in a constant state of war until Dar Al Harb is turned into Dar al Islam.

So Joe Biden was never at war?

Biden wasnt mentally competent. Democrats are only at war with conservatives

I posted we have been at war with Iran since 1979, and that would include President Biden's term in office.
If you are asking me if he did anything worth a damn in that regard, obviously not.

OK, fine as long as you admit we’re at war with Iran I don’t care about the rest
