Trump starts a war with Iran

[Dryxi]

you fucking idiot, do you think this is going to be a conventional war? iran has been a breeding ground for terrorist for longer than any of us has been alive...they will attack in civilian clothes, they will use dirty bomb, poisons, attacks on infrastructure...there will be no "war front"...the entire country will be a war front...OUR ENTIRE COUNTRY, not theirs.....
there will be a military confrontation at some point, if no one steps in and bitch slaps trump back into line...but that will not be the real fight...the real fight will be with terrorists who are already in our country, who already have been working together for just this eventuality...expect the first major terrorist attack any day now...and more to follow soon

Calm down sir. The war isn't coming to your front door. The ENTIRE world is against having a large confrontation. All of Iran's allies, are against a major confrontation. All of our allies are against a major confrontation. Should Iran bring the war straight to our door, what is it you think their military commanders think the reaction from the USA will be? It would be entirely insane. There is a reason we spend $600 billion+ on defense spending, compared to the rest of the world spending less than $250 billion. No-one ACTUALLY wants that fight. Everyone will go out of their way to stop a real war from happening. This includes countries like N. Korea and Iran. They don't actually want a full blown war, and unconventional or not, they still dont want a full blown war. They want to posture and show they "aren't" scared of the big bad USA. They want to say they stood up to the terrible imperialistic state. That is all.

If terrorist attacks begin in the USA, the response would be to attack whatever home country originated the attacks. Reason? To keep it away from our own front door. Its better to fight in the neighbors yard than your own.

Iran gave Trump a way out of this without going to war. Is Trump smart enough to take it?

Lawd, another foreigner with an opinion on US relations and nothing to back up his claim. Pitiful.

Not one mention of obama besides production was way down during obama era.

Can President Trump take credit for record US oil production?

Fossil fuels are not produced or exported, they’re “unleashed”. And, of course, US LNG exports have been called “molecules of US freedom”.

Why do you only respond to non US residents when all the veterans on the forum want you to drink bleach?

Keep your officials out of other country war zones and commanding hostile takeovers of our embassies and they probably won't get blown up.
But you do realize trump gave the green light on what he was being told by the state department. You sound as though he pulled the generals name out his ass and said to take him out.

Trump never heeds the advice of the heads of the intelligence agencies.

Have you considered suicide?

We owe Iran 15 missiles. Ours will probably hit their targets.

Depends on weather putin is ready for a distraction.

Ukraine, Georgia, and other vulnerable Russian neighbors could be big losers in a U.S.-Iran war if Moscow took advantage of U.S. distraction to press for further concessions.https://www.csis.org/analysis/how-will-russia-react-killing-soleimani

Iran made the smart play. They get away with showing force against the US, but without hitting a single american. Means if the US does anything in retaliation, the rest of the world will condemn us more.

Honestly, good for Iran. Smart move. Time to listen to Trumps speech in a few minutes to see the response.

So I had this soldier join my squad fresh from jump school after my first deployment. He's an E-9 now and still listens to Wu-Tang clan. I had leave taken away for buying him beer when he wasn't legally old enough to drink.

I asked him if Trump is popular in his battalion and he said "only among the white guys over 30 with a few exceptions".

For what that's worth...

Iran is a very weak bully that deserves a bloody nose. Those that condemn us are a joke. Time to rearrange Iran’s nuclear facilities.

So you're going to enlist and go rearrange those facilities?

I just retired from the 101st, and while Trump isn't popular.... A deployment is extremely popular. I come from combat arms MOS and deployments are the reason we deal with the shitty conditions of training. If we don't deploy (such as when I was attached to a non-deployable unit for a few years), it feels extremely bad to know you are training in a unit that isn't even going to let you use your training.

This is a popular feeling among all races, not just the white 30+ soldiers.

 

[Dryxi]

Yo, this speech was planned for 11am EST. WTF man, be prudent with your American public (and the rest of the world).

Maybe for the first deployment and even then I suspect it's bravado much of the time, but I would still tend to concur. But supporting Trump and wanting to become a veteran aren't the same, even for the most impressionable.

Also, this is my woobie:

How The CIA Overthrew Iran's Democracy In 4 Days : Throughline

It's no secret that Iran and the U.S. have a history of animosity toward each other. But when and how did it begin? This week we look back at four days in August 1953, when the CIA orchestrated a coup of Iran's elected Prime Minister Mohammad Mossadegh.
