    Look….. The only reason you lean so far left is because none of this has landed on your or your family’s front door. Let an IED go off on mommas block and see what tune you start singing.

    Same argument applied in 1942.

    Yes, innocent lives were lost. However, liberals are not alone in levying that criticism.

    Still, it was right to attack Iran, and it remains so.

    Isn’t this the whatabouisms that you are so critical of?

    Categorically no. I'm not calling out the slaughter of elementary school children as a defense or excuse of anything else, I'm including it in the atrocities.

    I don't beleieve it was. I don't believe attacking them will bring prosperity to it's people. Certainly so far it's only escalated suffering of the populace.

    You’re entitled to your opinion, even if it is delusional.

    Does he appear to be concerned with the longterm prosperity of the populace?

    Posturing and bluster do not reveal how he truly feels about the many innocents cowering to those he targets.

    The price oil has dropped from $120 to $82 a barrel. The ONLY way to deal with a "bully" (Iran Islamic Terrorist Regime) is to flatten them. Seems the new Ayatollah is DEAD:)

    You know…… I preface this by saying I have my own reservations about this action. I will not voice them while young men and women are in harms way….. But it just occurred to me….. If Obama or Biden either one had the cajones to do this, they would be receiving accolades from the highest rafters. Sure does say something about the state of the 21st century democrat.

    The mixed messages from Israelis, Hegseth. Hegseth stated, that the US is not looking for turning Iran into a Democratic nation. Well. that is the dumbest quote that ever came from his mouth. If, you do NOT finish this regime and replace it with what 90% of Iranians want, you will face the same war in 3 years. These birds are not going to ever play nice. Their mission is to destroy Israel, Western interests in Gulf.
    US needs to send war ships into Strait of Hormuz to protect tankers, destroy any remaining threats, take out all underground bunkers, bases, weapons storage, wipeout nuke sites with special forces. Then arm the people in Iran to start a war of annihilation vs the mullahs and their thugs. This is not WW2 scenario, where the enemy became best friends with Allied nations, helped US vs Russians, and got Americans on moon before Brezhnev and the Commies could. These IRGC nutbars need to be wiped off the face of the planet. And everyone can see how good an ally Russia was, the Kremlin is again working with America's enemies. Trump needs to stop talking too Putin, and listen to his true friends.

    No . . . It's that you liberals just cannot stand giving him the benefit of the doubt.

    How is it that, despite my dislike for how the guy carries himself, some of what he says, and most of how he says it, I still manage to agree with much of what he does while you liberals, on the other hand, cannot find one thing redeeming about the man?

    The answer is easy . . . blind loyalty to your political agenda. That really makes a smart guy like you look very stupid.

    Don't feel too badly though, you are not alone . . . there are an awful lot of you out there.

    Looks like Iranians are operating Ukrainian type "drone attacks boats" vs shipping in Strait of Hormuz. In order to not tank the US, World economy, there needs to be a ground invasion of Western Iran, to secure coastlines, destroy the enemies droneboats, minelayers, logistics. Also, this sick Regime just stated that they will sacrifice the entire population to stay in power. This means "total war", victory can only happen with a new regime to take control.

    I just heard on our news, Iran is allowing "Iranian oil tankers" safe passage thru Hormuz....
    Well, If i were the"commander in chief" I would tell the Regime, sorry we will seize all Iranian tankers from now on. Then, I would tell them, wanna make a deal? You open up Hormuz to ALL tankers, or else, your oil will end up being seized, and your regime will have no $$$$$$$.
    Why did Hegseth not think of that??????????????
