    I don't know who WE is, but it ain't the USA - and it ain't you...unless you are going to strap up and go fight for propaganda in the desert.

    It will be men and women on both sides who are from poor and ignorant backgrounds that are being manipulated into thinking this is a war of nations...and of course GOD is on both sides.

    **** that noise.....Trump and the Leader of Iran can strap up and have a cage fight.

    BTW - add the assassination to Trump's Impeachment - the breaking of the war powers act, and the EO signed by Reagan himself.......send all of that to the Senate.....Impeach him - I doubt the Senate will want war, I guarantee Americans don't.

    Sean Hannity just reported that he was told by a high ranking official that all Iranian missiles appeared to miss their targets which would obviously not be an accident.

    May have been a show launch basically

    Mattis being forced out is when I called for Trumps removal. Him being in charge at the pentagon made it a much better situation.

    The Kurds are saying, per CNN, that 2 missiles hit Erbil: 1 hit the airport but did not explode, and 1 hit 20 miles outside of the city.

    Could be a show launch, could say something about Iran's ballistic missile technology.

    I remember the days when a high ranking official confiding in Sean Hannity was viewed as alarming.

    Looks like the Iranians didn’t even try to kill any Americans so idk what the point was... yes, you “did something” but your citizenry is gonna be like “wtf we didn’t even hit any Americans”

    All I can say is that regardless of what side of the fence you sit on, we must do whatever it takes to ensure there is NO WAR WITH IRAN. If there is an escalation to full-blown war, the entire country will need to take action to stop it. If it takes 350 million people mobilizing to leave their lives to head to Washington, then that is what must happen.

    After almost 20 years since Iraq/Afghanistan, 5-7 trillion dollars wasted, countless lives lost, I cannot believe we have come to this point. Enough is enough.

    Ballistic missiles have notoriously poor accuracy. Equally as likely they just missed and had malfunctions.

    That YouTube video you shared said they have 1 km tolerances so they hopefully overshot.

    There are 50,000 troops in the region. If they want to kill some, they can.. they’ve chosen an option which has resulted in no deaths. That leads me to believe they didn’t intend to kill any.

    Their coverage was wild. I finally changed the channel after reading some of the comments on here.
