Minneapolisistanis should be ashamed of themselves. THIS is what a dictatorship looks like. Dumbasses were edumacated in Union run schools so they don’t know sh*t from shinola.

The attack on their nuclear facilities was not enough? Iran has led to the direct murder of hundreds of US troops already. What could they do that is different from what they have been doing?

Having to go back to fighting these Mullahs is a direct result of not finishing them off in the first place.

Just as the world will not let Israel kill off the HAMAS scum completely or that the West didn’t finish off Iran last summer always leads to renewed fighting.

When will the Dildomats (Diplomats) figure that one out?

Eliminate them in the first round.

Concur; hope Israel shoots the down incoming missiles. The American bases should be relatively safe. The Iranian regime will be annihilated except for those hiding in tunnels or holes like Saddam but eventually they will come up for air if left alive. Then they will face Persian justice.

How to inveigle US taxpayers-——Israeli Influence and Relentless Pressure on the US

Some reports indicate significant pressure and influence from Israeli officials. Israel’s ever-present multiple lobbies and supporters in the US (Israeli-Firsters purporting to be “Americans”) take a hard and fast “Israel-First” warmongering stance.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has consistently made dismantling Iran’s nuclear program Israel’s central foreign policy focus, challenging the US’ diplomatic efforts like the 2015 nuclear deal. Some sources suggest Israel’s actions to benefit itself have “forcibly thrust the United States into Israel’s longed-for war”.

Trump’s “America First” agenda to protect American families, balances deterrence with diplomacy. Israel undermines the US tends by favoring pre-emptive military action using US tax-paid weaponry. Israel inveigled the US to join its military campaign in June 2025, but the US initially rejected the request for direct involvement in Israeli offensive operations.

Israel later conducted its own strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities using US tax-paid weaponry.

The US did conduct its own independent strikes on three Iranian nuclear sites in June 2025, an operation President Trump described.......reading from an Israeli-written script as being in “collective self-defense of our ally, Israel”......... and to eliminate Iran’s nuclear program a key component of Netanyahu’s Israel-First agenda.
.

The US usually acts in alignment with its own perceived national security interests, but the extent to which these actions are a direct result of Israeli pressure versus independent US policy remain all too visible as an ironbound Israeli-only benefit.

Brilliant, mullahs, brilliant.

I’m sure that will end well for you.

The Iranian leaders just do not realize that if we strike it will be to kill them... at least I hope so.

They should just threaten to activate liberal Americans to protest against ICE.

I guess you think Iran wouldn’t use them against us if they could. I for one. wouldn’t bet on the forebearance of insane Islamists.

Oh please. Everybody in the leadership and security apparatus there will be lucky not to be swinging from a lamppost within the next month.
