Trump bombs Iran

[AZrailwhale]

We will see how Iran will respond.

George W. Trump may have just gotten us into another conflict.

I hope not. He made the Israel Iran war our war.

Dumb move IMO.

There can be no war with Iran. The Mullahs lack the ability to wage war on us. All they can do is have their proxies commit terrorist acts. We will correctly view these attacks as the responsibility of Iran and we will make them pay even more than they have so far. Iran has exceeded the limits of asymmetrical warfare and is paying the real-world costs instead of using expendable Houthi, Hamas and Hezbollah members as patsies.

I do. There are many Americans who are anti-America.

Just look around here.

There are far too many people who assume because she was born to American parents in Tehran that she somehow has affection for Iran other than being a liberal airhead.

Iran strike like Hiroshima, Trump says as NATO chief calls him 'daddy'

RECAP: Trump compared the Iran strikes to the two nuclear bombs dropped on Japan at the end of WWII, claiming his strikes also ended a war by pushing Iran to the negotiating table.

We will see where this leads.

I don’t think there was really ever any doubt Trump would this.

Netenyahu has wanted for over the past twenty years to bomb Iran and all he needed was the consent of the US.

All previous US presidents said no.

He found Trump to say yes.

Not only did he say yes, but decided to join in this attack.

A dumb move that may change everything in the Middle East.

We will see.

But...but......TACO! TACO! TACO! AWK! SQUEAK!

No act of war necessary any longer, gone with the 4th Amendment

What a President!

No president since FDR has gone to congress for a declaration of war before committing troops to combat. Trump, at least, is not planning a conventional war on the ground.

 

[TemplarKormac]

This is not true. We only sent 5-6 planes. And we only have about 15-16 of these bombs. We wouldn't have used 12 in one place.

Six planes carrying two each = 12

 

[Synthaholic]

You and Skye need to get together and decide what constitutes being at war because neither of you have it right. Did we attack any other targets than were associated with their nuclear weapons capability? No. Did our carrier strike groups participate in the attacks? No. We could have destroyed what was left of Iran with very little additional effort, but we chose a measured response.

Trump bombed another sovereign country. Would you be fine with China bombing us so long as it's in the Utah desert where no one lives?

I guess skye and Oddball will not be voting for MAGA again... sad.... I can give you both the Harris for president link if you would like...

I quit voting in 2000, exactly because of bait-and-switch bullshit like this.

He gazed up at the enormous face. Forty years it had taken him to learn what kind of smile was hidden beneath the dark moustache. O cruel, needless misunderstanding! O stubborn, self-willed exile from the loving breast! Two gin-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother​

And we hit 3 sites. What did they hit the other two sites with?

 

[AZrailwhale]

We hope. We need bomb damage assessment from independent observers on the ground to be sure.

And how did all of those wars shake out to the good of the nation, professor?

 

[Synthaholic]

So you are saying the US has no obligation to help defend or even support any of our allies.

Thus is neither defending or supporting.

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

We have maybe 20 of these bombs, so, no, we did not use 12 of them. They can carry 2 each at a max. Maybe 3 or 4 at the most.

 

[Synthaholic]

And how many Vietnamese were killed?

Around 1 to 1.5 million.

Like I said, WE KICKED ******* ASS.

You got a mouse in your pocket?

 

[TemplarKormac]

And we hit 3 sites. What did they hit the other two sites with?

They had two planes drop four on each site. Two planes, four GBU-57s for each site.

12.

There were three ventilation shafts in Fordow.

 

[Oddball]

We won most of them, but we lost the peace in a couple.

Where'd you score that barrel of turd polish?

Then your words mean zero... I thought you were Maga... well if not at least you don't vote...

 

[Moonglow]

He wrote it and cashed it.

Those Chuck Norris jokes are gonna be about him now.

I am sure you secretly supported the Ukraine war.

 

[TemplarKormac]

They can only carry 40,000lbs of ordinance, so that is ONE bomb per plane.

Natanz and Isfahan were struck with Tomahawks.

It isn't? Iran has been supporting terrorist attacks against Israel that have resulted
in death. What sort of action by Israel's ally, the USA, would you suggest?
