I agree. We have too many communists in congress to fight a real war any more. The communists want us to lose and they do all they can to hinder any sort of victory.

Trump should be given credit at every available opportunity: he averted an almost 100% chance of nuclear war.

If the Ayatollahs had finished making nuclear weapons, they surely would have used them. In my view, anyone who thinks otherwise is a fool.

As a very minimum, Tel Aviv and Tehran would’ve been nuked. Would that have spread?

completely disagree

the reason no one has really “won” a war since in WW2 is that the rules of war would specifically created to prevent someone from winning.

In my opinion the rules of war exist only to make wars unwinable and unprofitable and thus freeze in place the current status quo.

The Trump team has done an unbelievable job in Iran.

As much as I would like to see the IRGC get bombed into the stone age, the current approach by President Trump is by far the better approach for the next 4-6 months.

Iran requires regime change for a long term solution. The IRGC only carers about it's survival and is holding the Iranian people and their lives hostage. They have killed tens of thousands of men , women and children this year alone and they would like nothing more than a humanitarian disaster in Iran to serve their propaganda purposes.

President Trump's MOU is an attempt to build the foundation for regime change and it needs to be given time to work.

The era of total victory died when the communists made inroads into the Democrat(ic) party …
So such a claim implies that neither WWI nor WWII resulted in total victories. Could be the case, since a lot of our traditional enemies who today call themselves our “allies” think they can speak up against us once more.

Well, that means that WWIII is on the horizon no matter what one can do. Or is that so?

There can be no reasonable doubt that:
1. Iran can build missiles that can deliver warheads to Tel Aviv
2. there is no need for Iran to enrich uranium beyond 4% U-235 for Iranian civilian nuclear purposes
3. enrichment of U-235 is the most difficult part of building a nuclear weapon
4. Iran has the ability to build nuclear weapons
5. Israel has long paid proxies to attack Israel
6. “Death to Israel” is a common Iranian sentiment
7. The Iranian leadership would like to destroy the Israeli state and remove Israeli’s Jewish population
8. Iran’s combined possession of nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles would be a grave danger to Israelis
9. Israel is right to refuse to compromise its very existence, its safety and its ability to control terrorism and safeguard its citizens to:
a. lower the price of American gasoline by $1 a gallon,
b. help Republicans in Congress to get reelected,
c. prop up a grossly overvalued American stock market, or
d. increase the sales of the Trump Organization.

I agree that unless I manage put $300 billion in your hands that I will not block your building as many H-bombs and ballistic missiles with the ability to carry H-bombs to US (and Israeli) cities as you please.

Trump hasn’t got Iran to give up even a gram of enriched uranium or one centrifuge.

Trump’s deal is far inferior to Obama’s deal.

“Democrats, whether in Congress or the White House, snatched defeat from the jaws of victory in Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan.”

The writer forgets that President Trump signed off on a withdrawal from Afghanistan in an agreement with the Taliban on February 29, 2020 at Doha, Qatar.

As to Iraq, what was victory supposed to look like?

General Shinseki was pushed out as Army Chief of Staff when he (correctly) predicted that an effective occupation of Iraq would require hundreds of thousands of troops, a prediction that conflicted with Rumsfeld’s in which we’d be greeted as liberators.

Donald J. Trump achieves what NOBODY has achieved for over 5000 years and that’s PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST and the liberal media says it’s “not that bad”?

” communists began to make inroads into the Democrat party”

NO, the “Democrats” were already Communists.

FDR was Stalin’s buttboy. His 1932 platform was a copy of the 1928 Socialist party platform. The New Deal was socialism lite. And fighting WWII was really just the Great Socialist Crusade to stop the fake socialists - the NSDAP - from obliterating the Bolshevik state to the East which was trying to overthrow all of Europe.

The Communists have suffered a few big collapses because of economic reality and Republican steadfast opposition since 1945, but they are still here and now control the Rat party to an extent not seen since the ‘20s.

“communists began to make inroads into the Democrat party ... Democrats, whether in Congress or the White House, snatched defeat from the jaws of victory in Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan.”

This cannot be overstated if you want to understand American history in the 20th and 21st century.

Back when Hitler and Stalin were allies, American communists supported Hitler. Had their partnership continued, American communists and fellow travelers would have opposed WWII. It might have been another Korea, perhaps another Vietnam.

The Iran war was all about Israel wanting regime change, for their actual
purpose of ending Iran’s nuclear weapon ambitions and support of terror.

But Trump was not told the whole story and was
duped into the $trillion dollar war blindsided by Israel.
