Trump Basically Declares War On Iran

[Missourian]

Seymour Hersh is reporting the Peace President who campaigned on ending the forever wars, will bomb Iran this weekend.

MIGA!!!

WHAT I HAVE BEEN TOLD IS COMING IN IRAN
This is a report on what is most likely to happen in Iran, as early as this weekend, according to Israeli insiders and American officials I’ve relied upon for decades. It will entail heavy American bombing. I have vetted this report with a longtime US official in Washington, who told me that all will be “under control” if Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei “departs.” Just how that might happen, short of his assassination, is not known. There has been a great deal of talk about American firepower and targets inside Iran, but little practical thinking, as far I can tell, about how to remove a revered religious leader with an enormous following.
I have reported from afar on the nuclear and foreign policy of Israel for decades. My 1991 book The Samson Option told the story of the making of the Israeli nuclear bomb and America’s willingness to keep the project secret. The most important unanswered question about the current situation will be the response of the world, including that of Vladimir Putin, the Russian president who has been an ally of Iran’s leaders.
The United States remains Israel’s most important ally, although many here and around the world abhor Israel’s continuing murderous war in Gaza. The Trump administration is in full support of Israel’s current plan to rid Iran of any trace of a nuclear weapons program while hoping the ayatollah-led government in Tehran will be overthrown.
I have been told that the White House has signed off on an all-out bombing campaign in Iran, but the ultimate targets, the centrifuges buried at least eighty meters below the surface at Fordow, will, as of this writing, not be struck until the weekend. The delay has come at Trump’s insistence because the president wants the shock of the bombing to be diminished as much as possible by the opening of Wall Street trading on Monday. (Trump took issue on social media this morning with a Wall Street Journal report that said he had decided on the attack on Iran, writing that he had yet to decide on a path forward.)
Fordow is home to the remaining majority of Iran’s most advanced centrifuges that have produced, according to recent reports of the International Atomic Energy Agency, to which Iran is a signatory, nine hundred pounds of uranium enriched to 60 percent, a short step from weapons-grade levels.

It's the right decision.

I know it sets back your cleansing of the Jews considerably, and that must really chap your ass.

That's just a bonus.

 

[Missourian]

Lol. The thinking of a child on full display.

How low is your IQ?

About 136.

How about you.

 

[gipper]

About 136.

How about you.

You mean 13.6.

Bombing a reactor is not what anyone thinks of "war". No one is going to bat an eye if Trump ends their nuclear program and calls it a day. In fact, they will shower him with praise over it.

No one in right wing America world will.

But if Iran responds by closing the Straits of Hormuz, or terrorists attack Americans……..

If Iran does that, Satanboy will demand Tehran be nuked murdering millions. He’d love that.

 

[TimFitz]

He ran on "Iran can never get nukes". He said it at DOZENS of rallies.

What he said is largely worthless.

Trump did more for a Iranian nuclear proliferation than anyone else alive when he tore up the JCPOA in 2017.

Years of diplomacy went in the trash. Trump was universally condemned for his stupidity.

As everyone outside of Fox predicted, Iran would restsrt its program.

Today, Iran is much closer to having the bomb than it was in 2016.

Now, he’s bellowing and demanding that the genie be put back in the bottle after he pulled the cork out in the first place.

Iran does not trust the US, and they certainly don’t trust Trump.

But then, no one else believes or trust Trump either.

Netanyahu doesn’t. But he is hoping he can play the fool into a shooting war for Israel.

 

[Missourian]

You mean 13.6.

Ah, can't comprehend simple numbers and your most creative burn is "low IQ".

It's not looking good.

 

[TimFitz]

If Iran does that, Satanboy will demand Tehran be nuked murdering millions. He’d love that.

I don’t think so.

Trump is afraid of the responsibility.

And the rest of us, who watched Trump fail spectacularly at managing the Covid crisis, shudder to think how stupid and irresponsible he would be as a leader in war time.

it doesn’t matter for the time being.

Trump has already chickened out on a shooting war.

His two week deadline will pass.

By then, he will have moved on to yet another gimmick to entertain his cult with.

Warmongers are so dumb.

 

[Zincwarrior]

Says you. Saddam ******* sucked,

Hussein was a US ally.

and Afghanistan was harboring terrorists. Those are MORE than enough reason for me to go to war.

Afghanistan is still harboring terrorists. both Al Qaeda and ISIL exist there still. However, we had no choice in that one. We have an absolute choice concerning Iran.

I love wrecking shit nations.

Did you fight there?

 

[Missourian]

Warmongers are so dumb.

Antisemites are dumber.

 

[Hector12]

So you admit to lying when you stated above you can’t post your opinions of Palestinians.

I did not lie. Mine was an honest mistake.

 

[Zincwarrior]

He ran on "Iran can never get nukes". He said it at DOZENS of rallies.

Did he run on war with Iran?

 

[Missourian]

Did he run on war with Iran?

That choice is up to Iran.

 

[Godboy]

No one in right wing America world will.

But if Iran responds by closing the Straits of Hormuz, or terrorists attack Americans……..

You think the Iranian navy is going to try to close the straight while a US carrier group is there? Youre fuckin CRAZY!

 

[Godboy]

Did he run on war with Iran?

There wont be a long drawn out war. No one is going to care the moment those reactors are permanently shut down and we end our bombing campaign. There will just be a big sigh of relief all over the world.

Iran will care. What do you do when they retaliate - because thats an actual act of war?

Why can't Europe, Russia, China do it? Why do we have to be the policeman yet again?

 

[Zincwarrior]

That choice is up to Iran.

Yes they will get vote. What happens when they fire on our bases at Diego garcia and the Middle East? Whats the next step?

Target every likely and unlikely hidey hole a Mullah might seek shelter in, and don't stop until every Mullah is surrounded by virgins.

So bomb them for a decade? Note, Iran is 2.5x the size of Afghanistan and has a population of 90mm, assuming they are even there and not in Oman or China at this point.
