Trump says Iran gave U.S. advance notice of missile attack in Qatar
CNBC ^ | 6/23/2025 | Dan Managan

President Donald Trump thanked Iran for giving the United States advance notice of the coming missile strike on a U.S. base in Qatar.

The notice, he wrote on social media, “made it possible for no lives to be lost, and nobody to be injured.”

My take: Trump is trolling Iran, basically forbidding them from saving face with their attack on U.S. forces. By saying Iran warned us, he's basically saying that Iran didn't really try to hit us because they knew it would mean a thunderfumpin'.

IMHO this is more evidence that things are de-escalating.

MTG’s mileage is wore out and there is no extended warranty. She should not attempt to run for public office in the state of Georgia.

I think he was absolutely serious and is accepting the deescalation.

Mighty White of Them.

Prescient statement ... about a nation that a century ago renamed themselves "Iran" to highlight their Aryan ancestry.

I think you’re right about the Trolling.
I read the headline and thought; “Well, how nice of them!
Hey, wait a minute. Iran isn’t exactly well known for ‘being nice’ to anybody, let alone The Great Satan aka USA.

Trump has a way of stating outrageous things in such a casual way, you have to let it sink in before realizing he’s ‘having a laugh’. Not always, but many times, and unexpectedly too.

I don’t think it’s trolling at all. Everything I’ve seen suggests the U.S. gave Iran plenty of notice before bombing their nuclear facilities a few nights ago, too.

MTG thinks more of herself than she should.

She looked into running for the senate but soon learned from polling she had better not.

Excellent point. I believe they changed their name from Persia to Iran right around the time Hitler was rising to power. Hitler was also an Aryan. There are pics of Hitler and Iranian leaders sitting together.

Which brings up the question: Did Hitler bomb Hitler on Saturday night?

Yes agree he’s giving Iran a way out.

Israel has also stated its operation is winding down.

Just waiting to see joyous crowds in the streets of Tehran celebrating the end of the Ayatollahs rule.
Now that would be a huge game changer

This just confirms it for me that the whole thing was an orchestrated charade. Trump placates Bibi with a performative attack on Iran’s (empty) nuke buildings and Iran gets to save face by bombing an evacuated US military base. Neither Iran or Trump want war, only Netanyahu does. But Netanyahu only wants war if the US will do the heavy lifting. So if he can’t persuade Trump he’s going to be stuck begging Iran for a ceasefire now.
