    already stated what I consider as useful info

    btw, tweets to me are close to useless

    but even if I consider that tweet on its face value, it doesn’t confirm or deny anything

    So, Trump the pathological liar can be trusted, and he doesn't need US intelligence. He trusted Putin over his intelligence agency last time. Now, he doesn't trust his appointed intelligence over Israel, who have blatantly committing war crimes for years now.

    I'm not saying it is some gotcha moment. I'm just pointing out that the left in here are doing the same thing they complain about the right doing when they post one liners on Twitter or memes. Cutting quotes and only showing the most biased parts.

    I hate both parties with a passion and root for gridlock. I will rail on both sides.

    I said before I don't want us dragged into this war. Let Israel finish it. They started it.

    2022-2025 @Space Ghost : **** you war mongering Democrats for giving Ukraine air defense systems. Yall are a bunch of neocons who work for the military establishment. Yall liberals want dead kids!

    June 2025 @Space Ghost : if yall dont wanna preemptively bomb iran then you're a terrorist sympathizer! Using nukes to blow up a bunker in the mountains is a great idea!

    Americans are so hilarious. Shameless group of cultists

    We're asking Iran to stop developing long range missiles after Israel bombed them repeatedly. We're asking them to decommission their nuclear plant.

    What a bullshit unserious offer

    Araqchi: Iran will never stop uranium enrichment.

    The United States' move was a betrayal of diplomacy

    The Iranian Foreign Minister stated in an interview with NBC:

    We no longer know how to trust the Americans. Iran will never agree to a complete halt to uranium enrichment, and Israel must end its aggression before any negotiations with the US.

    Whether diplomacy will succeed in finding a solution to the Iranian nuclear issue in the next two weeks depends on the Americans - whether they will show determination for the agreed solution or whether they have other plans and want to attack Iran.

    Maybe they already have such a plan and maybe they need negotiations just to cover it up.

    We don't know how to trust them. What they did is a real betrayal of diplomacy.


    No nation can trust our word anymore. Trump ripped up the Iran Agreement. He ripped up his own trade agreement with Canada that he made during his 1st term. We’ve made enemies out of everyone. 1 day there’s tariffs, the next day they’re reduced, then there’s a pause, then the tariffs are back on. We are no longer reliable.

    and even if we get an adult in the room and some competency back with a Democrat, these nations don’t know if another worthless unhinged republican will get voted back in again and we’re right back to the chaos and stupidity

    Also how is it that the Executive Branch can just go on an offensive war without any checks?
    Is this a legacy of 9/11 or Vietnam?

    It seems like our proposal to Iran is either voluntarily demilitarize or be demilitarized.

    I was going to say, way to broadcast to the rest of the world and encourage them to do the same.

    It probably would take a tactical nuke of a couple of Killotons yield and drilling at that. A ground invasion would disastrous, horribly expensive and destory our reputation around the world---it would never happen.

    The problem is we got dragged in without a proper plan

    Who knows. Maybe this was our plan. Maybe not Trumps. But the US DoD and the IDFs.

    please tell me where in your post it says that Iran is building a nuclear weapon, thanks

    “What intelligence do you have that Iran is building a nuclear weapon? Your intelligence community had said they have no evidence that they are at this point,” a reporter asked Trump after he arrived in New Jersey.

    “Well, then my intelligence community is wrong. Who in the intelligence community said that?” Trump responded.


    Tulsi Gabbard literally said that in her clip

    Trump is saying that the assessment from the IC that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon is wrong

    we are just handwaving our way through the Iraq war has WMD playbook.

    Same speeches being given, albeit half-heartedly since no one has a say otherwise on this besides Trump. No real debate, just vague notions about stopping weapons of mass destruction going to regime change. There is even a mention of assassination attempts.

    Iran is enriching uranium and wants to be like Japan where they don’t have a nuclear weapon but can quickly make one when pushed into doing it. Israel, a nuclear armed nation, decided to attack Iran and have the US finish off Iran once and for good.
