I cannot believe the official social media pages for the White House are putting out AI cartoons of blowing people up. Its North Korea tackle, they used to take the piss out of this kind of drivel. I agree with you on the rhetoric and phraseology of the Trump clique. Nevertheless, sooner or later, someone was going to have to take Iran down. The could not be allowed to continue their missile development and terrorism expansion. That apart from whatever nuclear ambitions they had. Then there are its people. When thousands there protest and are murdered, and exiles celebrate wholeheartedly, then it suggests that there is plenty to be positive about. How long all this lasts is clearly unknown, but the attrition rate on the Iranian stockpiles is large, particularly on missiles. Drones maybe lower, but again the numbers being used has fallen significantly. Biggest issue is to break and degrade the IRGC now, and empowering internal change. That is the elephant in the room.

I agree, at some point their ambitions would need to be curbed. Just as the megalomaniac ambitions of other rogue actors with acces to nukes would probably need to be curbed at some point - such as for example North Korea, or the guy currently lurking in the White Hou... Mar a Lago. Why right now though? We dont really believe this was triggered by Iranians being murdered in the streets, do we? Did it need to happen now though, via a clearly undercooked (at best) strategy, and at the cost of blowing up alliances and destabilising the world economy? Did it need to happen now, after we were told last year's surgical strikes completely obliterated their capability? Did it need to happen now, when it seems fairly clear that multiple levels of the Iranian regime were compromised and infiltrated by Mossad agents who appear to be able to affect their operations and/or direct military action onto them at will? Degrading their capability is all well and good, how long and how effectively that can go on for when it's just an air campaign though who knows. I am assuming the Israel would like to get into a situation where they can just periodically bomb Iran as and when they see fit with little to no opposition, as with some of their other neighbours. I have serious doubts over whether this action, done in this way, and now, has made the world any safer though.

You can't really spend the best part of a year trying to fuck people/countries over, and then expect them to help you when you find yourself in a bit of a sticky spot. It could be this war that does for him, rather than the fact that he likes to fuck kids, who'd have thought it.

March 17Mar 17 Joe Kent said that Iran posed "no imminent threat" to the US and claimed that the Trump administration "started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby". He's clearly just a conspiracy theorist
March 17Mar 17 He never rated him anyway, so he says. Despite appointing him. And gushing about him after making that appointment.
