I do believe PDJT made that perfectly clear to the world yesterday.

All the “concerned” folks can now let us how much better they are than the rest of us. We’re waiting. Slap on those ribbons. You are so, so needed at times such as this.

“Many presidents have dreamed of delivering the final blow to Iran’s nuclear program, and none could,”

Wrong Newsmin. They could. They just wouldn’t.

Funny how usually sane posters reveal themselves when a real issue is dealt with seriously.

I’m not offended at all. I doubt you could do anything to offend me on your best day.

I love it when idiots show themselves to be idiots. Honestly I’m grateful when it happens. It saves me the trouble.

So thank you most sincerely for doing all the work.

Now the rest of us can sit back and enjoy.

Including our 45th President... or was it that someone didn't order him to at that time?

“”Including our 45th President... or was it that someone didn’t order him to at that time?””

Your insinuation here is probably ‘the’ most asinine that I’ve seen yet. And the irony is... you probably have no idea just how stupid it sounds.

From the article: ...Trump has consistently stated for over 10 years that Iran must not get a nuclear weapon...

Northrop B-2 Spirit first in-service: December 1993
GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP) in-service start: September 2011
10 years ago: June 2015
President Trump inauguration: January 2017.

So... despite all the capability being in place, this was so important that it did not occur between January 2017 and January 2021.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth stated "Many presidents have dreamed of delivering the final blow to Iran's nuclear program, and none could."

He's stating that our 45th President couldn't? We know that's not true. He could have but didn't, yet now does it? If this was a ten-year objective, why not on June 21, 2017?

-New Iranian leader? nope, he's been in place since 1989
-Waiting for the bombs to be built? nope, they've been in-service since 2011
-Waiting for the airplanes capable of delivering the bombs? nope, they've been in-service since 1993
-Waiting for the authority to do it? His authority as U.S. President is no different today than it was on June 21, 2017. So... someone else's authority changed...

Call it asinine if you wish but what changed?

Yeah, go with that. We've heard "weapons of mass destruction" used as justification before.

on the chance you are asking in ernest,

In the first term, he had iran isolated and sanctioned, no one in the world was dealing with them, they were flat broke, and hungry.

THey were ready to give up their nuclear program and without firing a shot!

Biden undid all of it, and then some. He allowed them to flourish and rebuild their nuclear programs to the point where they simply were not going to give it up, as they had enough money to take care of them selves, and export terrorism all over thw entire world.

This time, diplomacy and sanctions were insufficient, they simply flipped Trump the bird.

So, Trump had to up the ante, if he was to separate them from their nuclear program.

Any one paying attention knows this, so, why DO you ask?
