U.S. Politics

This waffling by Trump is not going to impress the Iranian nutjob radical Ayatollah spombleprofglidnoctobuns ites. It’s time for Trump to  put up or shut up. There are enough bunker buster bombs to do the job.

Standing by watching Israel doing all the heavy lifting and getting pummeled with Iranian missiles that could have been preemptively destroyed had the US Air Force aided the Israeli  first strike, is tantamount to Jimmy Carters ineptitude in 78.

Advice to Trump from a Christian MAGA supporter: Stop listening to Alex Jones and Steve Bannon and Tucker Carlson and Owen the bearded mouth, because they have revealed themselves to be extremely anti Israel hence, prove they do not heed the Biblical God warning that those who curse Israel shall themselves be cursed.

When I see that Mark Levin is getting attacked when I see Alex Jones literally becoming a propaganda mouth for the Iranian Ayatollah, suggesting the USA cannot get involved because the  Mullah regime might get mad and do this and that and this might happen ..blah blah, and that Alex Jones is so much smarter than all of us dumb MAGA Christians and how DARE we criticize the great Alex Jones, Oracle of Truth…

Then I know the tree that once I thought produced good fruit has now become a rotten tree producing poisonous fruit.

   Trump ups the US support of Israel means he logically must give further aid to Ukraine. Think this situation  through and stop polluting your mind with Jones, Bannon, et al. Iran is dead in the water. You gotta give it time. We had to drop a 2nd A Bomb on Japan to get them to agree to an "unconditional surrender". Same here.

Guess I spoke too soon, Royell.  Just found out the B-2s  dropped multiple Bunker busters and have taken out 3 underground sites. The rest of the missile launchers will be eliminated by the IDF airforce.

Now all we can hope is the Iranian people fed up with the tyrannical regime will overthrow it themselves and Iran can become more like Saudi Arabia and be a peaceful nation ready to make new trade deals that benefit everyone.

Great to finally see the US settling old scores with Iran.  Iran has sponsored terrorism for decades resulting in thousands of US deaths and casualties.  They can never be allowed to obtain a nuclear weapon.  The people of Iran have a chance to rid themselves of these fanatics and join civilization.  Thankfully the US and Israel have the backbone to carry out these missions while "Europe" once again does nothing.

Europe doesn’t have the technology, nor quite the same appetite for military action.
The Iraq war (and Afghanistan) has changed the attitudes.
Similarly Israel has lost a lot of sympathy due to the extreme action in Gaza.
I think we are more focussed on Putin.

Also we can’t quite follow Trumps logic.
He seemed quite pally with the dictator in North Korea, and what’s the plan with Greenland?
He seems too unpredictable to get too close to.

That's no excuse for sitting back and forcing the US to deal with every threat to the world.  "Europe" has a formula that allows it to afford its socialist institutions that is entirely predicated on the US paying for most of its national defense for the last 70 years and counting.  Imagine what the US could do with our schools, health care, and homeless problems if we were not forced to pay over $1 trillion a year in national defense.  Most of which goes to defend "Europe" from Russia and most of the Asian countries from China, and also police situations such as terrorist threats from the Middle East.  Israel has done what was required to defend itself from barbarians who would wipe it out if they had the technology to do so.  "Europe" has done very little even against Putin.  A situation in which they have a direct interest.  Again, the US has contributed most of the military equipment and billions of dollars.  "Europe" has largely checked out.

 Europe was worthless in WW2. Hitler rolled across Europe and then stopped by for that photo of him in front of the Eiffel Tower. Nazi's also bombed the heck outta England. Europe has always been close to worthless when it comes to war. Truman had to drop a 2nd A Bomb to get Japan to surrender and Trump is going to have to do likewise with Iran. Terrorists are fanatics. They have to be absolutely decimated.

That’s a bit disrespectful to the many people who fought in both world wars.

You have to give them some credit for being smarter than us.  After WWII we paid to rebuild their cities.  For the last 70 years and counting, we have paid to defend them.  They charge us for military bases that are used to defend them.  Meanwhile they pay almost nothing for national defense and rely on the US to address any security issue.  Meanwhile our cities are in ruin.  We are overrun with homeless people.  The education and health care systems are disasters but "Europe" has a utopia in that respect.
