    oh @Lerxst1992 , why the crickets on this?

    age old antisemitic trope gets trotted out and no comment?


    Please elaborate. The Rs believe Obama gave Iran billions to get a peace deal is how I interpreted that picture.


    the question is, why aren’t Dems vocally supporting Israel’s attempt to stop Iran from getting nukes, which experts said could have been weeks away. 

    even Kamala supposedly supported this policy. Is dems current silence antisemitic? Bernie and AOC don’t stand with Kamala? Why isn’t that covered by the news.





     Kamala Harris is concerned about Iran's nuclear program and has publicly stated her commitment to preventing Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon
    Here are some key points regarding her stance:
    • Vowed to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon: Harris has explicitly stated that Iran would never obtain a nuclear weapon on her watch as president.
    • Diplomacy as preferred path: While emphasizing the importance of preventing Iran from becoming a nuclear state, she has indicated that diplomacy is her preferred approach.
    • "All options on the table": She has also stated that "all options are on the table," implying a willingness to consider other measures if diplomacy fails.
    • Focus on preventing nuclear capability: Preventing Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon is one of her highest priorities.
    • Views Iran as a significant adversary: She has described Iran as the "greatest adversary" of the U.S., citing its role in supporting regional instability and proxy groups.

    lol...I'm sure you believe that but Israel wouldn't have needed to attack Iran if trump hadn't taken down Obama's agreement with Iran.

    That's a fact you can't spin...also a fact that you were likely completely unaware of

    Is there anyone that you would feel worse about being president during these times (Israel v Iran ; Russia v Ukraine) then Trump?  I mean I feel like just about any other president in history would be preferred....I have no faith in this working out well (or even the best it could).

    i think there would be a better chance of peace if the us had either no president, or if trump just sat back and did not intervene.

    trump has the worst instincts and always does the opposite of what he should do. i used to think it was because he was selfish, but now i think he is just clueless. he does not have the ability to sit back and get out of his own way.

    i feel that we are going to get sucked back into a war over there for several reasons. most probably because trump is not respected by other world leaders, and he bows to putin and netanyahu every single time.

    all trump does is stand there and say "if i were in charge none of this would have ever happened."

    well, he is in charge now, and it is all happening. and he is blaming obama, from 2 administrations ago, for it.

    Israel’s campaign against Iran, militarily and rhetorically, has quickly evolved beyond its initial targets. Over the weekend, it hit Iran’s energy facilities, including a gas depot and an oil refinery, triggering huge fires and spewing smoke across the sprawling capital of about ten million people. “Tehran is burning,” the Israeli Defense Minister, Israel Katz, boasted on X. Energy resources were struck in other cities, too, sabotaging Iran’s main sources of revenue. Israeli officials also began telling local and foreign media outlets that assassinating Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the Supreme Leader since 1989, was “not off limits.” (Donald Trump reportedly vetoed the idea, but the fact that Israeli leaders even discussed it with their counterparts in Washington reflects how far they’re willing to go.)

    There appears to be no off-ramp to the conflict right now, as the destruction and death toll mounts in both countries. In Iran, more than 200 people have been killed, and thousands more injured. Israel, in turn, has been deeply shaken by retaliatory missile attacks, which have killed at least 20 and injured hundreds. Israel’s elimination of Iran’s military brass may be a setback, “but it is not a strategy for ending Iran’s [nuclear] program,” a former U.S. deputy secretary of state told Robin Wright.
