I don't think I see that appetite either, yet - but they've made some very public threats against the regime leadership and I imagine they are taking steps to secure themselves. If they want to follow through on those threats (not that Trump is renowned for following through with things he says), then I don't see how they could without boots on the ground.

Also, we have seen many times in the past how a supposed "non-appetite" for boots on the ground war has changed quickly. Iraq was a prime example. I wouldn't bet against the position moving quickly, even more so were an attack in the Middle East that affected US interests to occur.


Btw, thanks! I'll try to drop in from time to time to poke my head in :)


If Iran were a rational adversary, its nuclear ambitions wouldn’t be as alarming. But this is a regime that, since 1979, has openly called for the annihilation of the Jewish state and actively worked toward that goal—arming Hezbollah, funding terrorism in Judea and Samaria, supporting Hamas and the Houthis, Practically creating a ring of fire surrounding Israel now pursuing nuclear weapons.
That’s not going to happen.

Where my thought process differs somewhat I suppose is that I think China would be more likely to act whilst there are multiple other conflicts drawing US attention, to minimise the effectiveness of the response.

Reality is, if China was seriously committed to wanting to take Taiwan, it's not that I don't think the US could stop them - it's that I don't think the US would be willing to commit the resources required to stop them. (World War 3)


The US can try the first time and stop China the first time, but they will just keep coming back...so it is pointless.

The reason why I say there is a slight chance that a Greater Israel might prevent a hot war in the East is because of this.

They get cock blocked at Tehran. :lol: They must think of something else
There was a previous route that goes through Ukraine and now they are cock blocked there. :lol:

And the West still controls the maritime route. The Chinese are claiming the South China Sea is mainly because of sea routes / oil and gas.
If you cock block them on land routes they will cock block your allies Philippines / South Korea / Japan / Taiwan . :lol:

Why do you support Israel, after admitting the wars are retarded and useless to us as Americans? They've costed more than just money, we've lost many soldiers in the middle east so Europeans can steal land from Arabs that have been there for a long ass time

Thanks! Are we going double or nothing for 2-3 weeks? I don't see it happening. There will be chaos within the U.S and most likely a lot of violence, not to mention the risk of Russia/China getting involved.

It's pointless to debate with anyone from Israel, they are so severely brain washed they can't think like normal human beings, it's always a circular argument filled with their opinions presented as facts and facts labeled as antisemitism


sure double or nothing ! deal! 200fg that the US will bomb Iran by no later then the 19th July.

I consider myself an Israel supporter but i 100% oppose us getting involved in this war. It's not about being anti-Semetic, it's about the fact that most Republicans and Americans in general are sick and tired of retarded wars that cost a lot and bring zero tangible benefit.

We're 37 trillion in debt and are running huge deficits, my kids future is more important to me than doing Israel's bidding.


If I were an American, I’d probably feel the same way but I’d also want my allies to have everything they need to defeat their enemies. At the same time, I admit I may not fully grasp the complexities of international diplomacy, but one thing is clear: the U.S. needs to project strength if it wants to be taken seriously again, especially after the Biden administration
So a swift and decisive bombing campaign to bring Iran to its knees and force it to abandon its nuclear ambitions might be necessary not just for Israel’s security, but for America’s credibility as a global power.

I am going to put in my personal position.
I support neither Israel or Iran.

I support no matter what you fuckers do, please do not fuck up business worldwide and I also support the action against progressive woke LGBTQ plus DEI bull crap. B)

My support for Israel means i support their right to exist, i support the claim to that land, i support their right to defend themselves, control their borders, attack their enemies. I support their right to exist not only in Israel but here in the US and every other country without being attacked without being laughed or other negative stuff they've had to put up with for hundreds of years before.

In much of western Europe today a Hasidic jew walking down a street is likely to get harassed if not openly attacked, i don't agree with that we the west champion so many causes and equalities i.e. lgbtq or whatever but pretend that the example i just gave is normal to occur.

I'm also a Christian, and you cannot separate Israel and its people from the Christian fabric. You can't hate Jews and be a Christian.

Now with all that being said, after roughly 10 trillion being wasted on stupid wars in the ME with literally nothing to show for it, the prospect of going into Iran is the most retarded thing we can do right now. There's nothing ironic about that.

But Christians have been hating on Jews for like a thousand or more years or to be specific Catholics. Things change after WW2 and with the Evangelistic movement I guess.

So I am not exactly sure how to digest your comment that you can't hate Jews and be a Christian.
I am not trying to provoke an argument of any sorts. But there is historical facts that they did. :(

I think people hate on people without any rhyme or reasons at times. A good nationalistic propaganda will bring it very far.

Simple logic 101 argument.

Bob hates all Jews
Jesus was a Jew
Therefore Bob hates Jesus.


If Bob hates all Jews and Jesus was a Jew, then it follows he would also hate Jesus. So then if you hate Jesus how can you claim to be a Christian? You either love Jesus as the Bible instructs or you don't. It's quite binary.


Christian faith has had a lot of issues through its existence. Catholic church selling indulgences, catholic church getting behind the Reich, justifying slavery, list is long. That doesn't mean those are correct to central dogma.
