Israel launches attack on Iran | US bombs Iran nuke sites

If true that is fantastic. Iran no nukes and no US casualties.

Ugh. I mean, fuck the Iranian regime, but ugh.

What makes it so bad for me is that I know down in my gut that Trump gets off on violence, and that he's actually *enjoying* this.

 

[Callatoroy]

Trump won’t bomb Iran. Putin won’t allow it.

Feeling stupid?

I'll delete the post if it is already answered. Israel doesn't have a plane big enough to carry bombs as big as the GBU-57 series.

Gotcha- no idea why, but I didn’t know that. For whatever reason I assumed they had some of our B-2’s.

You have the attention span of a goldfish.

Lets look back on this in a few years and see what the fruits of it were. If you're completely cocksure that this will be the end of it, and you turn out to be right, then I'll buy you a drink.

Yet.

There will be tens of thousands.

Alright, forgive what is likely a dumb question but it’s been a little while since I took Civics. Does the president have Constitutional authority to unilaterally launch military strikes against other countries without Congressional approval?

It is a gray area.

My recollection is that Clinton did not have congressional authorization for Serbia or Kosovo (maybe belatedly Kosovo).

Deleted my post as someone else had already addressed this issue.

Yes and he won’t

So close

US has bombed 3 sites in Iran , including Fordow.

USA

You know many on this board hate that trump executed this because they would rather Iran have nukes than trump get the win by destroying their capability. Their tds is greater than their desire to keep nukes out of Iran’s hands.

Are you for voting for him?

 

[CFordUNC]

Yeah. Anyone who thinks that there won’t be Iranian retaliation, either directly or (more likely) by proxy, and subsequent escalation, is abjectly clueless.

That’s not to say that I don't support the Iranian regime being forcefully parted with its ability to develop nuclear weapons. I’m just not certain that THIS was the way to go about it. (And, to be fair, I don’t know enough to have any belief that it’s not the way to do it, either). Just sucks that it seems that another Middle Eastern war with direct United States involvement is imminent.

So close

Hey hey

From Iran state media. “Mr. Trump you started it, and we will end it”

Bad day to be U.S. troops stationed in the ME. Sending prayers up for their safety.

Now might be a good time to start keeping paper copies of important documents and saving paper copies of bank statements.

Are you for not voting for him? Can you imagine if kamala or Brandon had been in office? This would have NEVER happened. Trump just made the world far safer and seemingly with the silent approval of china, Russia, and the rest of the ME.
