US Politics Thread

Post stubbo-admin »

Seems like the main politics thread is becoming a Yankee-Doodle Trump-fest, so maybe scope here to split them out.

Will see if this one gains any traction ..if it does will move over a few of the million posts from our two protagonists from the other thread.

Yee-haaa!

“No imminent threat” ffs! Wonder what propaganda network he got that from.

So we have to wait for there to be an imminent threat of nuclear attack before we act?

Fucking Genius!
 
Which propaganda network? Your own Pentagon who told Congress there was no intelligence suggesting an attack from Iran?

Given they dont have nuclear bombs or the capability to hit the USA, it's a simple question to answer.
 
The fact they are enriching uranium to weapons grade and have networks underground developing their capabilities coupled with a defiant objective of death to Israel and death to America I’d say there’s plenty of reason to go in and take them out.

at what point do you think they should act? After they have a bomb ffs?
 
 
Need a hand moving those goalposts? Imminent threat suddenly becomes enriching uranium.

Enriching uranium isn’t illegal and there was no verified evidence of them creating nuclear weapons. They certainly didn’t have any.

Are we now bombing every country who enriches uranium? Pakistan? Netherlands? India?
Or do we just bomb the ones using mean words?

You might want to have a serious word with Iran then for the past 47 long years which is why this has all come about. That's for what.
 
When did Iran attack the US? 

Iran and Israel can attack each other all they want, it’s what they all do in that part of the world. It’s none of our or the United States business.

Multiple times through proxies that they sponsor.

There she/he is. It’s our own lil mincer popping up again.

You know I find it sadly ironic how you try to come on this thread and police it like you have moral ground.

You are constantly squabbling like a little bitch with Joyo on this forum and have no room to talk to others about what they post.

So do us all a favor and take your tired boring Trantifa act somewhere else because nobody cares what you think. About anything.


Have a good day!
 
And yet you boasting (BOASTING) about just working for a living and raising kids into adulthood gives you some sort of superior status? Simple things we nearly all have done?

You're about as insecure a materialist as they come, constantly seeking approval or attempting to paint yourself as "a cut above" everybody else (using your own personal criteria).

Joyo is my muse. Triggered by me at will. I would have thought someone with your superior intellect would have worked that out long ago.
Actually Mincy, I thought you were Joyo’s muse.

Yeah I’m seeking approval, fucking hell! You really do have your head up your arse.

As I said take your tired, boring Trantifa act elsewhere. Nobody cares mate!

I’m on the side of not starting illegal wars and not destabilising the ME and messing up the global economy.

There are plenty of horrible regimes on the planet but it isn’t the decision of Trump to pick & chose which ones he bombs.
You’re just creating another generation of Iranian’s who will hate America because they destroyed their infrastructure.

You will now have
more refugees 
more terrorism
more of an affordability crisis across the world 

and for what?
he’s not helped the people of Iran like he promised.

I sometimes question who's side you are on between Iran or Israel/US out of this conflict. Iran has threatened and continued to threaten both Countries refusing to agree or stop production for nuclear weapons which they haven't denied is their aim and who they wish to target. A Regime who killed over 30,000 innocent civilians of their own people, yet your main focus is always to come down hard on US/Israel trying to put a stop to their undeniable aggression amd despicable acts against humanity intentionally and happy to admit that themselves.

Nothing illegal or completely unncessary about it.

By the way, many innocent civilians were also killed during WWII. It happens during War unfortunately.

Yeah war sucks, but the US military is the best at keeping innocent casualties at a minimum.

Nobody said they were perfect.
Especially when they’re illegal and completely unnecessary.
The US have history of innocent civilian casualties in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria etc etc. They specialise in blowing up wedding parties.

The Iranian people are going to be super pissed when Trump swans off having done nothing for them.
Same goes for all the surrounding ME countries.

Looking at the scale of the war it’s amazing that there hasn’t been more collateral damage.

judging by how the US military has performed under Trump so far I’d say they have been superb.

As far as Iran is concerned I’ll take Trumps policies over Obama’s and Biden’s. Only reason they have been able to build out their missile capabilities and drone weapons is because of all the money Obama and Biden gave them.

Just like the Border, Crime, record high inflation etc Trump has to clean up their mess.

last time i checked the US hadn't vaporised any schools in the UK.

is there nothing he can do you will not forgive? sexually assaulting women? insider trading at your expense? blowing up schools? disrespecting servicemen?
I’m pretty fucking sure Trump wasn’t the one who’s aim was off or who set the wrong co-ordinates

My guess is it was somebody else. Just a hunch.
Such a weak response son.

His choice to wage an illegal and unnecessary war. Every  US death is on him. The death of those kids is because of his choice to go to war. And he doesn’t even have the good grace to admit the error.

Same way Bush & Blair were responsible before him.

2 days ago Trump was saying how precise these weapeons are and now he cannot even admit the mistake.


are you talking about the nukes that were obliterated or the ones the US intelligence said didnt exist? or is this the ones that were an imminent threat according to no-one apart from Israel?

Oh fucking stop it- it’s a fucking war with Bombs and missiles getting thrown around. Although it’s tragic shit happens. The Iranians are deliberately targeting civilian areas in Israel. It’s not like it was intentional. The effort to avoid civilian casualties on the Iranian people is second to none. I don’t see any other country putting in the effort the US military puts in.

Guess we should just sit back and let the Iranians develop a Nuke then.
