Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York said he told Trump that conflicts have a way of escalating and “we’re worried that he and the administration may bumble into a war.”...House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said earlier she didn’t think Trump wanted war with Iran and the American people have “no appetite” for it either.

Trump should have replied: “As opposed to Obama who paid the mullahs to create Nuclear Bombs???”

I trust in what Trump decides. Syria’s red line response was perfect.

Obama!

And, they all would prefer to give Iran $150 billion to "keep the peace".

It's peace at any cost, including allowing Iran to build nuclear weapons and spreading terrorism around the world.

With an air force and navy that can do the trick.

But Americans will end up dying on the ground to appease Saudi Arabia and Israel

I don’t agree with anybody.

Congress should declare war if they want “authorization”.

The last time congress declared war was in 1941

The government needs to transition to a Draft if they are serious. Everybody needs skin in the game.

A plausible scenario: Drop leaflets by air onto all major Iranian cities saying: "People of Iran, your government has just attacked the United States. In 24 hours, bombs will rain down on all your major cities and ports. Please take cover."

Then do nothing and watch as the people rebel. In addition, throw some bombs at the homes of Rafsanjani and other buffoon clerics. Repeat as needed and watch the economy and the country fall apart in a week.

So Trump's itinerary for today was:

He met with Justin Trudeau and talked about Iran. He meets with Pelosi and members of Congress and to options. Pelosi said no specific option was discussed. Trump meets with his security staff. Before 7:30 Washington DC time he calls of a attack that has already started. When any attack would have had to be planned and approved in advance.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but as reported the events in this story are not adding up.
