Iran WANTS us to attack them.

I propose that we avoid doing stuff that desperate Mullahs want us to do.

So, Thomas Jefferson was a Globalist? The USMC should be disbanded? From the Halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli we will fight our countries battles in the air on land and sea...
What you desire will never happen. Isolationism with the exception of direct threat to our homeland has not been the position of the USA since its Thomas Jefferson the Globalist.
Alberta’s Child, as the saying goes, Some People Just Need Killing. The Iranian Regime falls into that Category.

Yep, first Nayirah perjury and then WMD hoax ‘all the intelligence community agreed on’.
We are allegedly living in an informed society but it still works and nobody held accountable.

I see this mostly as an attempt to get President Trump involved in war during the 2020 election year.

That’s the only way he might would lose the election (or by Dem’s voting fraud too, of course).

Yep, Iraqis deserved it first because of the babies thrown out of incubators and then because of the WMD not to be found.

And for whatever reason ...

The reason is the dispute between Netanyahu and one of his coalition partners over military service for orthodox Jews, from which they have been exempt.

Of course it is. Recent Bolton spectacle is part of it.
Trump is surrounded by particularly criminal vicious snakes.

In fact Liberman has a point on this. Why Orhhodox should have all the benefits at taxpayers’ expense and a draft exempt? For what exact reason they are above and looking down on everyone else?

NV, irrelevant to this discussion. W’s mistake in going into Iraq, a country that had absolutely nothing at all to do with 9/11 has no bearing whatsoever on Iran.

Jefferson sent an expeditionary force to invade the Barbary States to protect U.S. shipping on the open seas. He didn’t send them there to protect some Islamic royal family in a Third World dump.

Meh, we’re fighting SEVEN wars, why not make it EIGHT..?

Not like we’re $23 trillion in debt, or anything.

And still getting invaded EVERY NIGHT.

Right..?

You might be right. But if Iran wants the U.S. to attack them, then why deny any involvement in this drone/missile/whatever attack?

Unless Iran has cruise missiles that can fire single cannon rounds into oil tanks, I strongly doubt the damage portrayed in today’s photos came from cruise missiles. Can’t see much regarding where the other hits came from. I think most of the smoke from the southeast was the production field flaring off oil when the processing suddenly stopped.

While we do agree that the situations are different in nature the common denominator is how public goaded into support of military action.
