Vice President JD Vance says the war with Iran will continue “for a little while longer” until the US and Israel can “neuter” the Islamic Republic.
“The president’s going to keep at it for a little while longer to ensure that once we leave, we don’t have to do this again for a very, very long time,” Vance told podcaster Benny Johnson.
“This country is threatening us in all these ways. They’re still trying to build a nuclear weapon. We need to neuter them for a very, very long time, and that’s the purpose.
Vance said the goal of the mission is to ensure that the US doesn’t have to go back into Iran in a “year down the road.”
“We’re taking care of business. We’re going to be out of there soon, and gas prices are going to come back down,” he concluded in an interview released Friday.
The US has already accomplished “the gross majority” if not all of the military objectives against the hardline regime, Vance said.
Higher gas prices directly resulting from the war effort — the Strait of Hormuz is the world’s most critical oil chokepoint which Tehran has a stranglehold on — are a “very, very temporary reaction to what is going to ultimately be a short term conflict,” according to the vice president.

Nope. The truth. YESHUA is THE LORD D GOD OF ISRAEL., and the Jewish Messiah. Believe on him.
Did you ever believe the New York Times? Everyone with a brain already knew it was biased drivel, but you are just now discovering it was nothing but indoctrination.
I am a former New Yorker and the only people I know who believed anything the NY Times ever said were Lefties...and you.
The NSDAP turned Germany into a murderous hellhole. You are sick.
Mere assertions do not make such true. Tell me what you think the result would be if the US withdrew all forces on foreign soil, refused any military actions on such, and stopped supporting strategic allies.
Do you see how israel treats Christians there? Far better than Muslims nations which seek the annihilation of the US, which you implicitly support by attacking Israel. As far as Christian, the term is far two broad, yet only about 2% of Israel are classed as that. And most of Israelis who say they are Christian also say they are ethnically Arab, and agree with Muslims in saying Israel cannot be a democracy and a Jewish state at the same time.- https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2016/05/10/5-facts-about-israeli-christians/ May 10, 2016
Now see how politically incorrect Christians are often treated in the US.
And of course, most attacks - usually spitting - would be by the Ultra Orthodox, which is to be expected (see how welcome a Christian would be in any such neighborhood in NYC, or in a liberal one. I know the answer to the latter. Meanwhile,
The Rossing Center for Education and Dialogue recently released its second annual report documenting harassment and violence directed at Christian communities in Israel and East Jerusalem throughout 2024. Tragically, the survey reported 111 documented cases of harassment,...nine incidents were documented in northern Israel,...The most common form of physical harassment is spitting.
Yet a majority (58.5%) of respondents reported feeling comfortable wearing visible religious symbols, such as a cross, in places that are mixed or predominantly Israeli-Jewish, while 20.5% feel uncomfortable. Notably, the majority Muslim East Jerusalem stands out as an area of relatively high discomfort (42%). Only one in 10 respondents reported having experienced harassment from Israeli Jews. The vast majority (88.3%) reported no experiences of harassment by Israeli Jewish citizens (such as verbal abuse, spitting, and physical assault) due to their Christian identity. However, in Central Israel and East Jerusalem, harassment is reportedly more prevalent, with 20% reporting such experiences....
An overwhelming majority of respondents cited problems within Arab society. 77% cited escalating violence within Arab society, as well as the broader deterioration of the socio-political situation
The Rossing Center attributed this uptick in aggression to the political environment, writing that the driving factor is “nationalist fervor and religious extremism, particularly among the Hardal (ultra-Orthodox Nationalist) groups.” - https://israel365news.com/407801/attacks-on-christians-in-israel-are-rising-but-a-closer-look-shows-a-different-story/
Thus once again, is Islam is the major problem.
Christians have suicidal empathy for israel.
As we should even for any minority nation which has had to fight for its existence in its tiny historical homeland against a vast horde of militant enemies confederate in seeking its extermination, as well as that of the US - which it would do even if Israel did not exist. And which would live in peace if not for them, and has engage in decades of sacrifices and concessions in seeking such, and would not need US aid if not for these militant Muslims. Against which Israel is a critical strategic ally, though irrational isolationists treat it as an enemy, as if Islam was not.
Do you know about the USS Liberty? israel has never been our ally.
Yes, I do know about the USS Liberty, as my post shows more than the typical poster who goes back to1967 attack on the USS Liberty as a pretext for their attacks on the state of Israel.
As I told allendale in response to his brief post you should read:
A rational, well-reasoned reply, but there are those who still drag out the USS Liberty again.
Thus, as if on cue, i see your antagonistic post.
Meanwhile, a Christian is one who has received life in themselves and are saved by effectual penitent, heart-purifying ("purifying their hearts by faith"), regenerating, justifying faith in the Sin-bearing, Atoning, Crucified and Risen Divine Son of God, (Acts 10:43-47, 11:13-18, 15:7-9; Titus 3:5) who saves sinners on His merit, (2 Cor. 5:21) thereby being made "accepted in the Beloved." (Eph. 1:6) For which faith is imputed for righteousness, (Romans 4:5) and is confessed/shown by baptism (Acts 2:38, 8:12, 36, 37) and following the Lord according to His word, by His Spirit, (Acts 2:38-47; Jn. 10:27, 28; Romans 8:13,14) with repentance when convicted by conscience of not doing so. ((2 Samuel 12:7-13; Psalms 32:5, 6; 51:3; Hosea 5:15; 1 John 1:9) Glory and thanks be to God. Which faith is in contrast to those who were never born of the Spiritor who terminally fall away, thereby forfeiting what faith obtained. (Gal. 5:1-4; Heb. 3:12, 10:25-39) - https://peacebyjesus.net/savedorlost.html
You still believe the lies you were brainwashed into believing when you were a child in communist indoctrination centers.
I have read every Hitler bio of substance, and have a good picture of him and the NSDAP.
The question for you is, did you study? How did you come by your understanding of Hitler?
I have spent many years analyzing this subject.
Let's talk about what you know.
Will you be honest about what you know. Or are you defending Hitler and the NSDAP because you are a Nazi.
But be honest about it. You're a frikken Nazi.
You would have been killed by our fathers in WWII. You would have killed Jews in concentration camps that embarrassed all humanity.
Take ownership so we can respect some tiny amount of your sociopathic courage wherein you admitted your crimes.
I thought the left called people they disagree with Nazis.
Why did the camps have nurseries, swimming pools and theaters?
