Utopia Talk / Politics / So we are going to war with Iran?

Im better then you
rank | Wed Feb 25 20:10:31 No debate, no votes from Congress, no accountability. Most military assets in Middle East since Iraq war. Also no clear demands or realistic goals other than regime change. |

rank | Wed Feb 25 20:34:45 "no votes from Congress" Not voting to stop it is tacit approval. "Also no clear demands or realistic goals other than regime change." Regime change is both clear and realistic. |

rank | Wed Feb 25 20:50:37 Yeah regime change is the clear goal. This only goes bad for trump if iran sinks some of our armada. Not saying that won't happen but it's very unlikely, far more likely is we topple the regime and help prop up a nonislamic pro west government. |

rank | Wed Feb 25 21:07:41 The odds of them sinking a ship is quite low. They might not get a single plane. The highest chance of this going wrong is to hit the ayatolla but not quite pull off the regime change, or to replace him with chaos and terrorism. The Iranian people are significantly more educated and intelligent than the average Muslim though so odds are this will be closer to postwar Germany and Japan rather than say other interventions but it still might not work. We shall see. |

rank | Wed Feb 25 21:19:24 "Not voting to stop it is tacit approval." Its a tacit sign of weakness and frankly cowardness. "Regime change is both clear and realistic." If you listen to Trump and war hawks this has something to do with nuclear deal, missile program, human rights, or protesters. Change to what exactly? The get bombed enough the protesters take over. |

rank | Thu Feb 26 01:24:10 Congress is utterly irrelevant. When it's controlled by the president's party, it's a pure rubberstamp for the president. When it's controlled by the opposition to the president, it engages in theatrics to show how much they oppose the president without doing anything to actually check him. This current gaggle of Trump dicksuckers in Congress are especially pathetic in terms of their blind fealty to the president at the expense of their own constitutional powers, but this is a bipartisan problem and one that only gets worse with each successive administration. |

rank | Thu Feb 26 13:16:24 Regime change is clear and realistic? You cant even identify the regime. The cleric you want to kill is a moral authority with the legal framework to block regime initiatives like say developing a nuclear arsenal. He wrote a Fatwa forbidding it. Not terribly unlike how your supreme court blocks stuff and writes legal and moral justifications for that. Fixating on a dude pushing towards 100. Iran is actually a republic, so you might want to mention their president more in these imaginary target lists. |

rank | Sat Feb 28 09:05:42 I guess we'll see how well Iran restocked their ballistic missile supply and launchers since last summers spat. It's laughable how trump played so many Trumpists into "America first, no more wars" to get him elected, and then immediately has done nothing but wars since. |

rank | Sat Feb 28 09:56:19 It’s a war of choice. Iran has the right to defend itself. And Iran should follow the example of Israel/USA and strike the homes of Israel/USA leaders. Netanyahu’s home, the Knesset, Israeli ministers homes, Israel’s nuclear power plant, etc. The White House, Pentagon, Maralago, Trump Tower, Lindsey Graham’s home, Marco Rubio et al. The pedophile terrorists must be destroyed. I think everyone can agree with that. Unless you are a pedophile terrorist yourself, of course. |

rank | Sat Feb 28 09:59:16 The Iranians did the same stupid thing that everyone else does. They just sat there and watched the US build up its force around them and hoped that it would just go away instead of striking first. Some day someone is going to learn, but it's not going to be today. - |

rank | Sat Feb 28 10:16:09 fuckhead has claimed (lied) that there were 'imminent threats' so has said the secret code words that let him do as he wants (just like declaring drug smugglers 'terrorists', & trade w/ every nation a national emergency/security threat) https://tr...Trump/posts/116147082884192486 it's exciting to see someone willing to so shamelessly & openly abuse power so often w/ no consequences |
