Iran will treat all of Elon Musk’s companies in the Middle East, including SpaceX’s Starlink internet service, as military targets as it retaliates against the U.S.

Why? Did Elon Musk or any of these companies attack Iran?
I have grown very weary of the terrorists....Trump just needs to force them all to flee Iran.

Here is the problem with Democrats/Socialists.

They always want to be authoritarians. They want to silence the people that call them out. Then, they USE PUBLIC MONEY to silence and attack those that ‘Whistleblow’ on them.

So I am asking for a friend, these ‘private investigators’ who PAID the money for them?

“I am opposed to Trump’s Iran policy and I believe the best outcome for the US is ending hostilities, unilaterally if necessary.”

We agree on many things. 1. Tools of war, tend to be expensive. Tools of terror tend to be cheaper. 2. We both want hostilities to end. 3. The US could now end it unilaterally.

We disagree on the following. 1. The point of the military, in that I believe its function is to guard the nation and its civilians- which the Mullahs have been attacking for 47 years. 2. That the United States can ‘negotiate’ and end of hostilities with Iran, which after 47 years seems pointless. 3. That the US is encouraging Iran to continue with terrorism, expansion, attacks throughout the Middle East and world, which it isn’t. 4. That ‘unilateral’ idea for you is to pull back and wait for the next massacre of American civilians, while for me it’s to drive the entire Iranian population to the open arms of their neighbors in Afghanistan and Pakistan.

You see 50 missiles as to many, and I see it as a very small beginning. Some still have food, power, and water in Iran.

How do the people involved get their lives back?
How do the voters get to go back in time and see they were being played?
How does the country get it’s money back from the spending wrought by those who were elected because of this play?
How does the FBI get fixed from not doing political dirty work for the Democrats?

So many questions..

“November is fast approaching for the Iran War proponents.”

I don’t think it’s going to matter ‘when’ the war with Iran happens, because it’s been inevitable for several decades. The question is only how many US civilians are going to be murdered and how much damage terrorists groups are going to do, before they are stopped. Taking the ‘easy’ way out, ie kicking the can down the road, has only gotten more Americans killed. No rational person wants war, and no rational nation continues a war for 47 years.

You mean $700 loans???

Yea that, and the confiscation of any and all private aid sent to help. The grounding of all small drones meant to deliver medications and food to trapped people. That stuff.

“I agree. I don’t care about Iranian civilians anymore. They have done nothing but sit in their apartments watching pirated European music videos. Why put our soldiers out for people who won’t lift a finger to help themselves.”

American lives are at risk either way now. The Iranians will target both military and civilians like they have in the past, use proxy terror groups, ect. Should the US military really be about protecting citizens and US assets, we should proceed on. I do care about the Iranian people, but they should have done more for themselves. Now, I want to see the roads choked with them as they migrate to Pakistan and Afghanistan. The United States can succeed by destroying ports, and forcing the civilian population to flee. Then taking their oil right from underneath them. Maybe when they get sick of Pakistan and Afghanistan they will come back and get rid of the mullahs. They can all think about that and take time enjoying their new ‘digs’ while we suck the oil and gas from their wells.

I don’t really want it to happen but I have to ask. Does the nation respond to a catastrophe in Democratic blue California the same way that the Democrats responded in North Carolina mountain people after Helene?

Somebody should ask the democrats why did we have a conflict in Utah in the 1800’s again? Why did Utah have to make different laws to apply for statehood? Was it “Brigham Young” or “Bring them Young” (spelling?) and that entire conflict about?

So many questions.....

I don’t think most people understand how earth-shatteringly huge this is.
Trump, more of this stuff, please!

I see your point, and yet call me skeptical with it’s implementation and resilience.

If they would have been just white South African farmers, they would have never found the perpetrators.......

In other words, California has passed laws that make everything they did, regardless of how utterly ridiculous, legal.

Have you ever heard the quote “You can vote in Socialism, but you have to shoot your way out”. This is why. California lost it’s ‘freedom’ a long time ago. The people of California are only now starting to see what they lost, and what the consequences are going to be.

I see all this, but is it illegal. Sure, the misrepresented themselves, but did they commit a crime by being paid by an outside source to ‘investigate’ Trump? Even if they were paid by a partisan agency, does communication with a ‘special council’ constitute a crime?

If it was a coordinated effort, to use public money to investigate a political candidate, and disguise it, it could be a crime. If it’s a crime, please have someone prosecuted! The government will continue to become more corrupt, politically involved, and deaf to the people until somebody does something.

“It’s a Government of the Government, by the Government, and for the Government, and it wants your money and not your opinion”. me

“Please Donald. Enough with the hyperbole. Iran is taking out American multi-million dollar
attack helicopters with nothing more than a jon boat, Ching-Chong outboards, and drones
shipped in from Ali Express. Not winning.”

Naw, use some of that equipment Donald. Use it to destroy all of the bridges and roads leading out of Iran except to Pakistan and Afghanistan. Destroy the power, Destroy the water, Destroy the food, Destroy the oil, Destroy the cities, Drive everything to East. Use lots of Drones, they are cheap and can easily hit these soft targets. Let the Iranians reap the rewards of the Drone wars...

“Iran is a problem that should have been handled differently already in 1979. We should have never let Khomeini take power.
After 1983 we should have not let this slide (Hezbollah and Iran ……”

Then it was embassies, night clubs, South America, the uss cole, aircraft, all of al Queda bombings, more terror, Hamas and its terror…. A never ending list. In a not so nice world, the roads except to Pakistan and Afghanistan would be closed, all of their ports smoldering, no food, no water, no power, absolutely no economy, and every major city on fire. Landing force on the way, and nobody interested in further discussions.

If I were the Israeli’s I would spy on the negotiations so I could know where it was going. I don’t want them ‘spying’ on our people, but I am realistic that this has to be expected here.

Might want to check your facts. I don’t think that’s even close averaged for the last 5 years. However, since I am against US aid to practically everything anymore it would be nice if it was zero.

As far as the amount of money spent on the Iran war, it’s clearly not enough yet. Trump probably needs to step it up.

“A hit, a shove, a push,” Howard told jurors, “’Melo had an absolute right to defend himself from that.”

He came over, started trouble, and used the knife he smuggled in illegally and with pre-meditation to stab someone to death. Self Defense, especially in the use of deadly force, means that you did not have an ‘escape’ option. This kid always had an escape option, and was the aggressor from the start. How is that Self Defense. He doesn’t have the right of ‘self defense’ when he initiated the conflict.

The Iranians send rockets from Christian cities so that Christians will be retaliated upon for the actions and decisions of Hezbollah. The article says they are doing it, nobody is denying it.

The Christians have become the new ‘shield’ for the Iranian’s proxy Hezbollah launching rockets, just like children are the shield for Hamas in Gaza. This isn’t ‘spitting’ this is attempted murder or murder by those individuals using innocents as shields for combat operations.

Maybe spitting on christians is an “ancient Jewish Tradition” but killing children, raping women, torturing people, and having Christians bombed in retaliation is “ancient Iranian Tradition”, that seems far worse.

We, as a nation, can not fund the United Nations as it has declared itself a terror Organization with this action.

The U.N. needs to be removed from US soil and disbanded because of it’s actions. A group of nations cannot support terror on an independent state because of religion. I hold that truth to be self evident, and no nation of laws and principles, can support it.

Yes, it’s Iran. Hezbollah is Iran, funded by Iran, protected by Iran. Iran is now directing Hezbollah to mount attacks from Christian areas, so that the Israelis will retaliate on traditional Christian towns. To say otherwise is ‘propaganda’ now, it’s right there in the news.
