“I think the Iraq war was a monstrous crime,” Caldwell told the Financial Times in December 2024.
He was also a skeptic of U.S. military assistance to Ukraine and advocated for U.S. retrenchment from Europe.“
WTH? The guy was right regarding both of those points. I’m thinking the neocon moles might have set him up.”
Guess what? We were right.
The position that sealed his fate was telling Hegseth and the neocon Shadow Staters who currently run the Trump Administration how potentially costly in American blood and money and devastating the effect on global stability the bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran strategy would be.
He was set up like a bowling pin and knocked down by the warmongering DoD Shadow Staters. A terrible, terrible loss for MAGA.
It’s 2017 all over again.

Iran is at war with the U.S.
Everyone pretending otherwise is locked into the antisemitic fantasy.
Iran is holding US hostages in Gaza.
They fire missiles at the U.S. navy.
They chant death to America five times a day.
Bkmk
Better fire Trump and several of his advisors too as they are the ones who convinced Bibi NOT to bomb Iran.
You are the ultimate empty headed neocon MIC stooge! Thank you for stepping up and displaying yourself to make the point that Caldwell and I am making.
For the life of me, I just can't imagine why Iran doesn't like us...
So what?
Whether he favors war with Iran or not it’s not his call to make. That decision is the President’s and, if the conflict lasts longer than 90 days, Congress.
His role was advisory. They no longer liked his advice. So he got fired.
That’s how things work.
L
1953 is noting compared to what Iran does everyday.
They have hostages in Gaza.
Crickets from the pro Iran crowds.
Trump is MAGA, not some mid level Pentagon dweeb who thinks they can affect policy by leaks. Good riddance.
Hamas funded by Qatar allied with Turkey holds hostages in Gaza corrected you.
And Qatar gets trashed a lot I read claims AG Pam Bondi is on their payroll.
In Israeli politics the Israeli opposition reminds us how Benjamin Netanyahu allowed Qatar to send money into Gaza to fund Hamas pre-October 7th.
Hold up there, wise gentleman. No one convinced Bibi NOT to bomb Iran. He was merely told at this time his bombing of Iran would be carried out without American support. Of course, with the horrific retaliatory strikes by Iran against Israel the pressure for Trump to commit would overwhelming.
“Exclusive: Israel still eyeing a limited attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities”
Reuters 4/19/25
Show the evidence (and not, the Colin Powell evidence of WMDs that were nothing more than drawings).
You can’t be serious! How many years were we seeing tens of thousands of American boys being killed and hideously maimed in that 90 day pre Congressional period in Iraq and Afghanistan?
“Pro Iran crowds”? Crickets for sure because the “pro Iran crowds” are a figment of your imagination. Now for the pro MAGA crowd, your enemy, we’ve got a lot to say.
Semantics.
OH, and Reuters, now there’s an impeccable source for the undisputed truth.... BWAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHA
We are not, at the moment, in a state of declared war with Iran. “Jaw-jaw” is still better than “war-war”.
Sure, Iran might slippery as snot when it comes to talking, but this gives more time for sanctions already applied to continue to have a negative effect on Iran’s capability to mount any kind of offensive.
War being fought with other than kinetic weaponry. Cyber, economic, psychological means do a great job of softening up and breaking down the will to go to war. And we have a silent ally against the ayatollahs - the civilian population of Iran.
What leaks?!? Before you get your neocon, warmongering panties in a wad, listen to his defense. Yeah, I know you all too well. You look up from your MSM feeding trough long enough to grunt the Shadow State narrative and never give the libeled their chance to defend themselves.
You didn’t respond to any of the points he made and didn’t even bother to deny it was all true.
The reason you support Iran is because they are anti-Israel (you were a cheerleader for them when Israel counter attacked after Iran attacked them) and a Russian client state. Just admit it.
Oh, so Netanyahu has completely shelved any thought of attacking Iran after Trump has said not now? It’s a done deal, all water under the bridge?
Can’t you do a few more Bwas in your replies. For a grinning, laughing moron it’s so natural. You don’t dare attempt a counterpoint. That’s beyond your mental capabilities but what’s to be expected from a laughing moron.
