God dammit Trump.
A silver lining is that, if this goes how the article makes it appear, it would be a very quick in and out.
Like the quick in and out in Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria?
That's the red line in the sand for Trump's base. We are not doing another one of those.
I know, it looks grim.
a man can still dream though
It's not impossible. While of course seems very different now, Trump dropped a MOAB on Syria and assassinated Iranian generals during his first term.
The situation looks more grim of course but there is still a sliver of a chance it is very short term to bring about a desired result.
Keeping up the pressure to let him know the response from his base is overwhelmingly negative with regards to a conflict with Iran is the only thing that could move the needle. Dooming and glooming while this is far from over and decided does not help anyone.
Not directing that at you, just have seen a lot of it around.
EDIT: about an hour ago, Lindsay Graham was urging Trump to "be all in to help Israel." I really think, despite how bad it looks, that this is far from decided. The only person who knows what Trump will do at this point is Trump himself.
It will all be "over by Christmas" and they'll be home "before the leaves fall".
And we will find those weapons of mass destruction
It is easier to start wars than to end them.
As soon as he 'enters', Iran will strike at American soldiers. This will activate American patriotism, because in a war situation, no one's going to consider "well, of course they're going to attack us when we attack them". That might quickly lead to mission creep.
Huh ????? Are you retarded. No one thinks like this. They will blame the jews, rightfully and protests will start Maga will fall. We want no more foreign wars.
If only americans weren't complete cattle
I think American patriotism is on serious life support. Most American patriots want our military to be securing the border and wiping out drug cartels, not doing regime change on the other side of the world for Israel.
Mostly because America is full of foreigners now. The actual Americans will still be susceptible to the old trap, though hopefully not as much as the last time it was sprung.
Has any war in the middle east been a quick in and out? Desert storm.... how did that turn out long term lol
I hope that in the wake of this all, we'll get the Shah back in Iran. Unless we get a pro-USA regime Iran will still be a threat.
