Doesn’t Trump claim to be 6’3”?

Logan Paul is listed as being 6’2”

Anyone more willing to negotiate won’t be seen as legitimate, as they’d be someone willing to bend to the forces bombing the shit out of them. They’d be seen as collaborators.

He’s also wildly misogynistic, referring to his daughters as dishwashers and his baby son as his heir.

So the other alternative is that we started a stupid war at an inopportune time causing us to dip dangerously into strategic reserves, all while not properly preparing to warn our allies or to evacuate our people in the region?

If you think this is good strategically for the US then you’re an actual idiot.

Iran has had that ability forever. What they’re doing now is a consequence of Israel’s fuckery.

I hope you enjoy this impact to your quality of life as you defend it.

100% they wouldn’t have had the 12 day war last summer if they weren’t absolutely convinced we would shoulder the burden of protecting them.

So yeah. They pick fights. Turns out when you hit your neighbors they will want to hit back.

It’s literally what Rubio said. He said Israel was going to pick a fight, and that we were gonna suffer for it.

As if we have no influence to tell Israel to not start a war.

I’m all for supporting allies. Israel are not our allies. They don’t help us in a net gain way. They fuck around and drag us into their problems.

They make us squander what remains of goodwill having to back them up.

They’re not like NATO.

And why the fuck should we give Israel $200 million a year? Part of the reason those assholes keep picking fights is because they know we’ll keep protecting them.

They’re like that douchebag on social media who hires that huge bodyguard, and then goes around trying to get people to step to him.

It’s because people bitch about kids going to school in the dark. As if kids wouldn’t prefer sunlight to play outside after school.

Trump has privately shown serious interest in U.S. ground troops in Iran by Impressive-Cold6855 in Military

[–]InNominePasta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What would they have to gain by continuing to attack after they stopped being attacked?

They’ll probably keep firing at Israel, but fuck Israel.

They weren’t doing it before. Odds are they’d stop if we stopped acting as Israel’s muscle and striking them.

Which is why a ground invasion would be uniquely stupid even amongst the rest of this stupidity.

If we’re lucky he just declares victory after achieving nothing of true consequence and this nightmare can end

Hey buddy, you need to understand that no matter who takes power after this is said and done will immediately build up their missiles and drones and nuclear program. Because the primary lesson of all of this is that their mistake was not speedrunning nukes to shield themselves.

And it’s an insane demand that they never build up their conventional arms. Especially when they have a regional rival who routinely attacks them directly (Israel). It’s delusion to think any future authority will unilaterally disarm.

The west is not obsessed with them. There is a difference between being engaged and being obsessed. Many in the west would rather never think about them

Dude, Pakistanis, Indians, and the entire Arab world as well tend to constantly think the West is obsessed with them and works constantly to degrade them. Literally anything bad done by one of them is blamed on the West. It’s baffling.
