He said there would not be boots on the ground and then said all options are on the table so who the hell knows.

It doesn’t seem our leaders have any semblance of a plan.

Pushing this back to the fore ahead of Trump making remarks shortly:





Trump has been all over the map in his erratic mini interviews but Hegseth further muddied the waters.

And MAGAs everywhere are questioning why any American would have apprehension regarding this war.
Just a reminder that the comments here from Trump voters closely mirror what Republicans were saying for Desert Storm II (or whatever it was called), but you can hardly find a Republican today who will admit to supporting that war.

At the expense of humanitarian services for poor people. They will not ask billionaires to pay higher taxes to fund their war.

No, but when the deficit explodes due to tax cuts and stupid wars, they will definitely look to blame whatever democrat was elected to bring us back from the resulting financial abyss.
 
Asked who might emerge to lead Iran, Trump told Jake Tapper: “We don’t know who the leadership is. We don’t know who they’ll pick. Maybe they’ll get lucky and get someone who knows what they’re doing...we don’t know who’s leading the country now.

Unfortunately, the US wasn't so lucky....

His last sentence was true about us as well. We know who is still the figurehead...

unless this ro laren poster is a new iteration of some past poster, they've been on the board for about 17 seconds and lack the context and seniority to make declarations about what is "too far."

someone else made this same point earlier itt. a bit presumptuous for brand new posters to be hopping in and lecturing people who have years of posting history.

No, the poster named Ro Laren goes back to the ZZLP. He's been around for a long time.
 
I'd have to know whether Ro Laren supports Trump or not to determine whether to give his pearl clutching over language any credibility.
 


So far we’ve heard that although we killed the whole Iranian regime, this was not a regime change war.
And although we obliterated their nuclear program, we had to do this because of their nuclear program.
And although Iran was not planning any attacks on the US, they also might have been, depending on who you ask.
And although we are not fighting this war to free the Iranian people, they are now free, or might be,
depending on who seizes power, and we have no idea who that will be.

The messaging on this thing is, to put it mildly, confused.
