But we have been actively engaged in a hot war with them for months and they haven’t been able to hit us.

“Imagine a world where the facts are different than they are in the real world. In that world MY opinion would be right.”

They had not been engaging in nuclear research since 2008.

Under the JCPOA they were NOT refining Uranium over 4%

They don’t have the ability to launch missiles at the U.S.

In 70 years of conflict with the middle east, there has NEVER been one time that Shia Islamists have attacked the mainland of the United States.

In every one of our recent provocations leading up to the war, they have taken the option of de-escalation.

They were NOT a threat to us. They were a threat to Israel and that is why we attacked them. We crippled our economy and the world economy, burned hundreds of billions of dollars, gave China and Russia a glimpse into our abilities (or lack thereof)....FOR THE BENEFIT OF ANOTHER COUNTRY.

That is treason.

Iran has provided material support to Al Qaeda whose members flew into the World Trade Center, for one.

Your claim about not engaging in nuclear research since 2008 is absurd. They’ve had nuclear scientists assassinated by Israel well after that date. They were not retired.

You’re also ignoring their continuing work on a ballistic missile program.

Sounds to me like your working for the benefit of Iran. Since you’re probably not an American, I can’t call that treason.

Actually, Iran has hit us. By proxy through the Houthi (Red Sea attacks = attacks on traffic in Suez Canal). Much like Pakistan and Afghanistan hit our homeland on Sep 11 by proxy through Al Qaeda. Everyone knew Pakistan was about as much involved with Al Qaeda as Afghanistan was. Especially after bin Laden was found in Pakistan.

Did you like the war we waged on Pakistan? We didn't go to war against them? Oh yeah, we didn't go to war with Pakistan because they had nukes. That's a lesson for what happens if a Muslim nation that attacks by proxy (like Iran has done against Israeli homeland and the U.S. cargo and navy ships) but has nukes (which Iran doesn't have yet). We can't under any circumstances let Iran have nukes -- or they'll be even more passionate with attacking us. In other words, now is the time for war with Iran.
