On Friday morning, Israeli military forces attacked several locations in Iran, including residential areas in the capital, Tehran. Several explosions were heard across the country.
At the same time, images of several locations in Tehran being targeted were posted on social media. The Israeli Minister of War issued a decree declaring a special state of emergency on Friday morning.
The international news reported Thursday that numerous countries recalled their officials from many embassies in the Middle East prior to the anticipated Israeli strikes.
Most Americans understand the seriousness of this moment. Iran has already threatened the United States for our connections with Israel and the regime alleged the US was in on the planning.
Most people were worried – But not Lindsey Graham.
Lindsey posted these jubilant remarks on X on Friday morning.
Again, I applaud President Trump for urging Iran back to the negotiating table, in order to end the regime’s nuclear ambitions through diplomacy, avoiding further bloodshed.
However, if Iran refuses this offer, I strongly believe it is in America’s national security interest to go all-in to help Israel finish the job. One of the benefits of this approach is that it would substantially undo the damage done to our reputation by Biden’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan.
If diplomacy fails, going all-in for Israel shows that America is back as a reliable ally and a strong force against oppression. It would strengthen our hand in all corners of the world, as well as all other conflicts we face.
Lindsey wants his war!
Maybe this will get him to forget about Ukraine for a few hours?
If the wild-eyed street gang that has previously threatened both us and our next-door neighbor and police are not responding, what are we supposed to do - stay calm, sit on our hands and not escalate things? (That is actually a rhetorical question, trust me.)
Nah, all we need to do now is airdrop Greta Thornbutt into Iran and they will surrender immediately! /sarc
I believe they do.
Sadam was a check on Iran.
Hey, Linda, how’s about you grab your blunderbuss and head over to the middle-east and chip in.
McCain was wrong! I don’t think it was the Beaach Boys, it was:

Ear is sometimes unfortunately necessary. But only a sick sob cheers for it.
“the regime alleged the US was in on the planning”
Well duh.
If it’s going to stop Iran from having nukes.....3 cheers!!
He probably was, I can see that now. Back then, the news was full of stories about Sadam’s strange two sons, their capacity for brutality was said to be legendary.
Uday and Qusay. Both long dead since 2003.
“I applaud President Trump for urging Iran back to the negotiating table”
Which has been exposed as a ruse — including by Trump himself.
What does Ukraine have to do with this new operation? Israel isn’t going to sit on their hands and let themselves be bombed.
The worlds top ranking WarPigs are piggy Putin and the Iranian ayatollahs. They are in an alliance. The only way that Iran’s nuclear bomb efforts can be stopped is by obliterating their centrifuges at Natanz, and a few other Iranian locations. Obliteration means using our largest bunker busters, Israeli warplanes are not large enough to deliver them. Ours are.
This is what it all comes down to. This is where the rubber meets the road.
That poofter has no children.
1/2 MAGA wants no involvement in this mess.
There is what I would call a Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, HodgeTwins, JeffreySachs, Judge Andrew Napolitano, Redacted, Thomas Massie, MTG, etc, etc wing who agree with Rand Paul this is not our problem and to not arm Israel as it will split the GOP.
MAGA don’t support (below at URL) or Trump’s recently stated proposal of letting in 280-500k Chinese students. Trump should focus on domestic issues that support MAGA, not Neocon supported issues like another proxy war for Israel.
“TRUMP now making exceptions to deportations:

I thought DJT was fully committed n not n what Israel did. I don’t think Iran has the ability to mount a sustained attack. But it fbthey can muster something like that I do see our involvement.
The preliminary reports are that there are plans to evacuate some 1 million people as a result of Israels attack on these nuclear sites.
Now, preliminary meets propaganda, but you and every SOB in this world had better pray and hope to the almighty that radiation detectors better not go off in places like Pakistan or any surrounding country.
Because if they do. Its kattie bar the door.
2/2 People are tired of the US being world cop while other countries like Israel have better standards of living, get American money handouts (over 178 billion in totality since 1948, not including other sweetheart deals in other areas) have less debt-to-GDP ratio, and free health care while America is in massive debt, vets are on the streets, etc.
But I guess it’s antisemitic to want to be America First.
A person can be sick and tired of a.) one war after another that Netanyahu has clamored for, be it against Assad, Gadaffi, etc, along with his multiple times of accusing Iraq and Iran through the 90’s, 2000’s, of going all-in to build nukes and how close they were to getting them, and then continuing that for Iran into the 2010’s up until today, and b.) also not support Iran. One can support neither.
Ww need to stay out of this.
Netanyahu declared more than once that Iraq had a substantial nuclear weapons program from refining all the way to missile technology and payload deliverability, and it turned out to be yet another lie from him.
Then there’s more warmongering lies from him:
“Iran has been “days away from developing nukes” for more than 30 years.”

He wants Americans to fight proxy wars for him and people are saying no more and that he can fight them.
This war is not our problem.
If this Israel is Chosen, should they have any difficulty in defeating Iran on their own, much less Syria, Libya, Iraq, etc? Oh wait.. the US got drug into those messes.
Not everyone is on board with the “Chosen” talk concerning Israel as Catholics and Eastern Orthodox (plus I forgot... an increasing number of mainline and evangelicals as well) interpret numerous scriptures from Paul, Peter, etc (who were Semites) as saying they mean the Church is now Chosen.
Paul and Peter were Semites, yet many don’t like what they and others in the NT had to say in John 8:24, Romans chapters 2 &9, 1 Peter 2, Galatians, etc, but that is to be expected as some in the world are anti-Semitic.
The anti-”Christ is King” crowd is actually where most anti-Semites can be found though not all of them necessarily are. (Jesus Christ is the ultimate Semite).
Absolutely he should. Not doing so would destroy his Presidency.
Israel is more than capable of doing anything that needs to be done in Iran. There is no reason for us to intervene.
