Massie says it seems Congress just declared war on Iran (he voted No)
Twitter/X ^ | Nov 2 | Rep. Thomas Massie

Posted on 11/02/2023 8:17:03 PM PDT by RandFan

@RepThomasMassie

Yesterday Congress passed a resolution (354 to 53) that claims Iran possesses all it needs for a nuclear weapon.

The same resolution says the U.S. should “use all means necessary to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.”

Seems like a call for war on Iran. I voted No.

@RepThomasMassie

We should remember the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution which midwifed the disastrous Vietnam War.

Yesterday’s Congressional Iran Resolution is eerily reminiscent of that resolution as well as the claims of WMDs that were used justify the second Gulf War.

Well...

Iran did commit an act of war against the US on November 4, 1979, that has never been properly answered.

I believe that failure to answer is the root of many of our problems with that part of the world.

No, I don’t have an answer other than raining nuclear fire and daring the rest of the world to retaliate...

...and we (collectively) don’t have the balls to do it.

We might have had, in 1980, if we hadn’t been wet-pants scared of a country that was going to collapse in a decade.

Sometimes I’m glad to be getting old.

What business is it of the U.S. if Iran has nuclear weapons? It’s not like Iran is a threat to anyone. Oh, wait....

I saw that ‘resolution’ yesterday. Seemed very basically a declaration of war to me, didn’t quite say it...but all the basic components are there.

2 carrier strike groups off the coast of Syria as well.

This stuff is going to go ‘hot.’ And there is no stopping it now. If you have not been prepping, you likely only have 96 hours tops to get ready. The FBI has already said the electric grid and water are at risk.

I broke out my ProOne water filtration system last night and topped it up. Bottled water in the basement stash, wood burner fireplace chimney inspected and repaired. I have been stacking can food for weeks already. Packing a get-home-bag this morning for the car.

Last job is to talk to my doctor about my heart meds. Looking into a Jase Medical Pack...

I wasn’t this concerned even after 9/11. I still viewed the United States as strong, the people came together for a few months etc. That’s not happening this time, we are divided. And that means danger.

We have a whole gen z group that cannot handle stress. They will be open to mass hysteria/panic. If events unfold like they appear to be going, Gen Z will have no “safe space” to run too.

Hey, if you want to be more precise, ethnic eradication. “Leave or be killed”, is the Netanyahu’s stated stance. Sorry Ace, I’m no comrade of the murderers of innocent civilians or their enablers. There are many neocons, warmongers and general dip$hits around here, so you shouldn’t have a problem finding your “comrades”.

I don’t have to write in Massie, he’s my congressman. Oh, so Trump absolutely is against a cease fire? Trump is absolutely against a two state solution? Trump expressly approves of the indiscriminate bombing of civilians? Yeah, BS, too. Trump is pro Israel, as am I. We don’t want to see Israel Ukrained by the blind warmongers in DC and Israel. I could have sworn you were a big Zelensky fan, my mistake. Glad you agree with Trump that the entire Uke corruption quagmire was the biggest CF the MIC has been responsible for since the killing of a million Arabs looking for Saddam’s yellow cake.

Trump said Israel should do what they have to do with Hamas. He never proposed 2 state solution, but was the best f4iend as President that Israel ever had. Israel will do what it needs to do. Don’t forget that Hamas killed and kidnapped Americans. Trump would not tolerate that. Zilinsky is a gl9balist grifter
Purin was wrong to invade Ukraine, that does not involve us. We are also in a state f cold civil war here, as the left has formed a treasonous ussa against the US. Pray that the cold civil war does not go hot.

The entire Abraham Accords end in a two party state. Look it up. A short reference from the NYTs.

“Mr. Trump’s plan would guarantee that Israel would control a unified Jerusalem as its capital and not require it to uproot any of the settlements in the West Bank that have provoked Palestinian outrage and alienated much of the world. Mr. Trump promised to provide $50 billion in international investment to build the new Palestinian entity and open an embassy in its new state.“

Yes, Trump, like me, wants to destroy Hamas. Yes, Trump, like me, does not want to slaughter tens of thousands of innocent Palestinians in the process. We see what short sighted application of American power did to Ukraine, it destroyed it. The same thing will happen to Israel if they think the US will commit to fighting 250 million enraged Muslims within ground striking distance of Israel’s six million.

Don’t forget that Hamas made war upon the US.
