You have completely ignored the US history in Iran.
Let s be fair, Iran has been stirring the pot since Carter.
To be fair, as a reaction to the ridiculous carving of the ottoman empire and subsequent 50 years as a client or puppet state. I certainly don't blame the people. However, the Revolutionary Guard hasn't done its people any favors since 79.

everything seemed pretty ok until trump walked in and fucked it all up in the name of un-obama-ing everything.
"Mostly I think that people react sensitively because they know you’ve got a point"
Have we bombed inside Irans boarders since Trump took office, or since tensions have ratcheted up? Just curious. I’m sure we will be tonight and I guess I wonder if that’s a whole new level of escalation.

Yeah but that was Iraq, not Iran. I agree with what dreams. Pull the hell out of the Middle East and let them sort out their own problems.
And maybe not assassinate people in their military.

I remember... pepperidge farms remembers.
It's a fact that since Trump took office, our relationship with Iran has plummeted, this after the Shia helped us with ISIS. We had the opportunity to bring Iran into a peaceful fold but we have been belligerent since January '17.

Should someone have assassinated Nixon then? I mean the guy prolonged the murder of the vietnamese people to win an election - that's some cold hearted not so fucking Boy Scout-ish shit?
Or war criminal W Bush lying himself to a war in Iraq and all the blood that is on his hands?
Let's not pretend they were Boy Scouts. Right? Fair game?
Or you find it more okey when they are from the middle east?

This is a gop war. They alone have been escalating with Iran over the last ten years. There is nothing wrong having a peaceful presence in the region to keep the oil flowing.
No one is sayin Iran are Boy Scouts. But trump has been goading Iran , since the day he took office after Obama tried peace.
Haley’s comments today are disgusting and dishonest. She was supposed to be one of the moderate republicans and she proved herself to be a liar. No one in the dem party is shedding tears for Iran, we just don’t want another republican war.

This is very reminiscent of the Cold War. A few proxy wars, some confrontations, threat of war but no all out war.

You need to understand the history. Think before Carter.
In 1953, the government of prime minister Mohammed Mossadeq was overthrown in a coup organized by the governments of the U.S. and the UK. Many Iranians argue that the coup and the subsequent U.S. support for the shah proved largely responsible for the shah's arbitrary rule, which led to the "deeply anti-American character" of the 1979 revolution.[29]

So in we have two sides, who have hated each other for decades, staring down at each other waiting for someone's move. who's gonna be the bigger person and realize that war just isn't worth it ? This scenario reminds me of a book I used to use when teaching the Cold War: Dr. Seuss's "The Butter Battle Book." The last page really comes to mind: "Grandpa, I shouted, Be careful oh gee. Who's going to drop it? Will you? Or will he?" "Be patient," said Grandpa. "We'll see, we shall see."

it's all the same region. i don't blame anyone there for believing america is the real terrorists. and it's a little late to pull out now, when the US has created much of the problems that currently exist.

My god.
I ve actually been against this assassination since the beginning. RIF
But let's anyways make sure to point out that the guy who was assinateted was not a boy scout.
Lol. sure jan.
I m not sure what your point is. Dude was a bad guy; Are you debating that?
To me, it’s irrelevant. I think it was a strategic blunder caused, mostly, by not having a strategy.
Agreed. I m anxious to see trump s next move.
Why? Either trump backs down or we risk an escalating air war. Rumors are 30 deaths at that air base. If trump retaliates, then Israel could get hit hard. Then what? Nuclear war? Where does this end?
When was the last time a million Americans gathered in a square to shout "Death to [Name Your Country]!" Never. Our government is not perfect. Much of our foreign policy is whacked. But by and large, we are a generous people who would never whip ourselves into a stampede over the death of a general. Quite simplistically, and I know unrealistically, I would love it if we pulled out of Iraq and let those people have that desert all to themselves to do whatever they want. Good riddance, I would say. The Middle East has been nothing but trouble from the beginning. I just can't understand or sympathize with the point of view of a people, a culture, who hatefully gather to shout "Death to America." Fuck that. God help us all. We've got a lunatic president leading us into a war against a country also led by lunatics.
when was the last time a country invaded the US under the guise of liberation just to control the region's oil supply, killed hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians, bragged "mission accomplished", and occupied that territory for a decade.
just imagine if that happened. you'd be in the streets shouting at the top of you lungs too.
Yeah but that was Iraq, not Iran. I agree with what dreams. Pull the hell out of the Middle East and let them sort out their own problems.
And maybe not assassinate people in their military.
Let’s not pretend the guy was a Boy Scout.
So?
Funny you're in here defending the act (of war).

spoiler alert.
trump will tweet. then we will retaliate and trump will call it the greatest. most tremendous military mission in the history of war.

it's all the same region. i don't blame anyone there for believing america is the real terrorists. and it's a little late to pull out now, when the US has created much of the problems that currently exist.

It's a fact that since Trump took office, our relationship with Iran has plummeted, this after the Shia helped us with ISIS. We had the opportunity to bring Iran into a peaceful fold but we have been belligerent since January '17.
Funny you're in here defending the act (of war).
My god.
Or war criminal W Bush lying himself to a war in Iraq and all the blood that is on his hands?
Let's not pretend they were Boy Scouts. Right? Fair game?
Or you find it more okey when they are from the middle east?
No one is sayin Iran are Boy Scouts. But trump has been goading Iran , since the day he took office after Obama tried peace.
Lol. sure jan.
What grade would you give Iran in the area of human rights?
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
In 1953, the government of prime minister Mohammed Mossadeq was overthrown in a coup organized by the governments of the U.S. and the UK. Many Iranians argue that the coup and the subsequent U.S. support for the shah proved largely responsible for the shah's arbitrary rule, which led to the "deeply anti-American character" of the 1979 revolution.[29]

Who's going to drop it? Will you? Or will he?"
