Iran Too? Why not!

If he turned him down does that mean the uranium is halfway to Moscow now?
 
Threat of retaliation: US President Donald Trump threatened to “blow up” the world’s largest gas field, a key Iranian asset, if Tehran keeps up its attacks on Qatar. He also said the US “knew nothing” about Israel’s plan to strike the South Pars field yesterday. Oil and natural gas prices soared again as energy facilities in the region came under attack.

• Diplomatic showdown: Saudi Arabia said it “reserved the right to take military action” against Tehran, while Qatar expelled Iran’s military and security attachés.

• Ships hit: Unknown projectiles hit two vessels in separate incidents in and around the Persian Gulf early Thursday, said the UK’s maritime agency.

• Intel assessment: A day after his resignation, former Trump administration counterterrorism chief Joe Kent said there was “no intelligence” that Iran was going to launch a “big sneak attack” akin to 9/11 or Pearl Harbor

Just grabbed a fast summary link instead of a bunch of different ones. The usual Trump whiplash as he goes from pretending to not know about what Israel is doing to saying he'll do even worse. Iran is continuing to hit targets despite firing much less often which is another sign this won't end soon.
 
That's the whizbang brain for numbers that can bankrupt casinos you were given in Atlantic City.
 
I hope none of the 50k troops now in the Middle East for this latest chosen forever war voted for Trump or Stein to keep them out of war.
 
Trump's addressing the nation tonight, so most likely either announcing ground troops or that we're Irish Goodbye-ing out of there after setting the whole region on fire and expecting everyone else to clean up his mess.
 
So neither of those happened, it was attempted damage control and nothing new was said that he hasn't already been babbling about recently. What a waste of time.
 
I didn't watch but I'm not surprised at the lack of consistent messaging. That's been the story from day one. This war has been a disaster for America and Israel, while propping up the current Iranian regime for another generation. @909 had a good thought about how 5his has turned modern warfare on its head that maybe he can explain.
 
Voters should have listened when Trump vocalized his submissiveness towards Bibi publicly.
 
Exactly. Don't act like you didn't play your part in helping him get re-elected. He showed you exactly who he was. You just didn't wanna vote for a woman.
 

Make that 2 planes.


  • A ⁠US fighter jet has been shot down ⁠over Iran, state media says, adding that the US military is trying to conduct a search and rescue operation in central Iran. An unnamed US official has confirmed the news with Reuters.
  • Iran later said it shot down a US A-10 aircraft near the Strait of Hormuz.
 
Bibi's bitch needs others to type naughty words for him.
 
Biden not throwing these guys in jail is gonna be one of those incredulous things people look back on in 100 years. How did nobody have the courage to do this
 
I hope that happens next time. Him, the whole rotten lot of them, Noem and Bondi shouldn't be out of the woods yet either.
