Despite intensified diplomatic messaging, both sides have warned they will retaliate if attacked again, leaving the region in a highly unstable standoff where deterrence and escalation risks remain tightly intertwined.

Nope. You can start on page 240.

Civilian use of uranium doesn't involve the level to which they're spinning it to, so I don't buy the non-weapon research statement.

Ignoring international threats and acting like Chamberlain is not America First, that'd be isolationist.

If you're an isolationist, that's fine, but it's not America First, it's naive and cheap. I'm not isolationist.

But I'd point out that if you're only an isolationist in regards to Israel, then you'd be an anti-semite.

Just be glad Trump and Bibi are on the job and you’re not trying to survive a nuclear winter.

“”President Donald Trump has warned that Israel could be “on its own” if it continues escalating military action against Iran.””

***

Gee, I don’t know. That sure doesn’t sound like the same tone the idiot left trolls have been posting about re: Trump’s “reported” anger at Bibi. Sounds a bit like what most of us, ie MAGA, WANTS to happen. You know.... a reasonable alternative and solution. Let Israel do it’s thing in self-defense against terrorists, whether in Lebanon, Iran or wherever. That is what needs to happen anyway.

The 9-11 commission report isn’t evidence. It is a political document written by Zionists to lay the groundwork for future wars for Israel.

Thanks for reminding me that the full release of all 9-11 related documents is yet another broken promise of Trump’s.

As I previously said, they were refining to 4% under the JPCOA until Trump withdrew from it in 2018. Even then, they only refined to 60%. You need to refine to 90% for weaponization. There is no technological hurdle to get from 60% to 90%. They could have done so at any time between 2018 and our attack last year. They chose not to.

”Then you’d be an anti-Semite”

There it is. Any reluctance to fight wars for Israel always boils down to the same thing. Doesn’t it? lol

At the rate I’m seeing Jew hate, it could be sooner.

"Trump’s foolish, impulsive and incomplete involvement in this Iranian mess is a disaster for the American people and the American nation. The demonic Democrats will ride the backlash to power in ‘26 and ‘28. Any “deal” with this medieval mullah regime is worthless and will not repair the political damage to the Republican Party. The only real solution was regime change. Trump let the mullahs off the hook when they were on the verge of collapsing and the IRGC was cowering in schools and mosques. Now they are rearming and resurgent."

Just like he did with Team Hillary!

IMHO the week following the intensive bombing and the killing of the murderous Ayatollah was a lost historic opportunity to bring an end to the mullah nightmare.

No guarantee the replacement would be any better. Twenty years and a trillion dollars in Afghanistan with less than nothing to show for it. The Iran (like the Beirut) of the early 1970s is gone, and not coming back.
