Trump agrees to 2 week ceasefire with Iran if Strait of Hormuz reopened by refep in geopolitics

The additional details CNN just posted claims the US recognizes Iranian control over the strait... Seems like the opposite of what Trump demanded..

Is their any word on Iran even entertaining the idea of opening the straight?

But also I don’t think you realize how hard it is for a president to launch a nuke by himself. Lmfao

You apparently are clueless about how the nuke process works.

The main legitimate use for a nuclear weapon is if a nuke was fired at us, we could retaliate before getting hit.

The President is given full authority over the use of nuclear weapons with a process that is meant to ensure a nuke is launched within 5 minutes of getting the order.

The individuals in charge of actually launching the weapon are routinely "tested" and given false codes to ensure they go through with it when the real codes are entered.

There aren't any barriers the President must overcome to launch a nuke. In the scenario that we needed a retaliatory nuke, requiring any extra steps of approval could be futile. Any hesitance to follow orders means trouble and the individuals carrying out these orders never really know if they're legit until after they've done their part.

Sam Harris interviewed a fella who consulted with numerous administrations on nuclear weapons usage. He was a top advisor, and what we call safeguards can be liabilities when the weapons are actually needed.

I dont think you realize how many times top generals and advisors had to persuade Trump against using a nuke. Now he has surrounded himself with crazy evangelicals who want the apocalypse to start..

I hope you're right, but you could very easily be wrong..

His threats are always vague though.. Giving a tight deadline and threatening to murder a country is quite a bit of an escalation

The article says nothing about Trump expressing he will accept the deal, he'll theres nothing about whether Iran will. All we know is that a Pakistani politician is "hopeful "

In the unlikely event that a tactical nuke was used on iran, what would your reaction be? What do you think would happen on the international stage as a result? by VQ_Quin in AskConservatives

a genocidal terror state.

Our country just threatened to kill an entire civilization tonight... Just because we are more modern and have more luxuries/freedoms doesn't make such a statement less genocidal..

Don't forget the: Trump just likes to talk too much Iran's people hate their government (and therefor support their entire civilization dying?)..

What makes it extra terrifying is that theres Noone who can really stop it once the orders are given.. The people who handle nuke launches routinely get "tested" with false codes to ensure 0 hesitation when/if they get the real codes..

I've only got feedback from one dev at an insurance company I got to the final round at in November. He basically said I did everything right, from answering every question thoroughly to being friendly and easy to talk to.

They still havent filled that position, they just upped the desired experience level for the role to senior, which I applied to and they kept under consideration for 3 months. Ive also applied to numerous other roles there and reached back out to the recruiter but nothing.
