Iran v US confrontation

So basically going looking to go back to the Iran deal again, just with Trumps name on it instead of Obama.
 
Figured it wouldn't be long until the speech until he d start bragging again. Seems to me the only thing Trump is interested in is tapping into Iran s economic potential on a personal level.

I also love how he said thousands of American troops were killed because of money given to Iran by the previous administration and then going on to say tens of thousands (?!) of ISIS were killed at his direction. Wtf. Can he ever not exagerate?
 
Now the fun part...

How are the Trumpites and Neo-Cons going to react to this?

Considering all he said was "I just had a huge triumph and killed a bad man and that's a great thing with no consequences and the reason Iran are bad is because of Obama and the military is great because of me and the country is doing great because of me".

I expect they will be lapping it up.
 
Felt as if he kept stumbling on his words and then had to change the rest of his sentence so that his mispronounced word doesn't seem incorrect :lol:

Wonder what they're gonna do with all that pent up war lust?
 
How does the American public/Republicans take the lack of a military response? Can Trump get away with it or is he facing pressure to retaliate and live up to his caps lock twitter diplomacy?
Trump for Nobel!
 
Bolton and Graham have gone limp.

Hopefully Bolton gets riled up because regime change is no longer on the menu and takes his anger out with a full-throated condemnation of Trump's Ukraine actions, feels a bit like muppetry!
 
Officially the greatest president of all time now.

I wonder how long it will take them to carve that hair into Mount Rushmore?
 
I expected it to finish with him hankering for some pork products.
 
Civil war if they loose the election... if they win the election then mexico (till they build or pay for that wall)

It really feels like they wank off to that s***, bet half of them can't fire an assault rifle without losing their balance.
 
Trump for Nobel!

I mean it's only a matter of time until he requests a Nobel peace prize for not launching an attack today.
"I think I should win it. No one has done more for peace than me. I could have used our military, we have the best military, the biggest military, the best missiles, such great missiles, so good, so strong - to destroy Iran, but I saw an opening to do what Obama never could and finally give peace to the Middle East."
Or something like that.

F22... yes. F35 hasn't been tested in full combat yet. Theoretically it should provide network centric capabilities and all that.

Keep in mind the US and NATO lost their shit when Turkey opted for S400 systems over the Patriot, over fears it would compromise F35 capabilities.
Because they would have got info on F-35 which would have made the aircrafts more detectable.
 
I reckon this is all posturing from the Trump Admin. They made the first move, Iran retaliated. They know they don't have the backing of the purse strings of the House and they can't agitate further right now with any military actions so they are hitting them with sanctions and imploring that the other members of the Iran deal do the same. It's turning the screw on Iran who they know without the Iran deal will say "feck you, we obviously need Nukes to sit at the same table as you guys" and continue down that path which is exactly what the Trump Admin want as it will turn public opinion towards military action and he will get the bipartisan backing for the war he's so desperate for, just before the elections.

It's going to be WMD part II. They are going to come up with some bullshit intelligence report that Iran has developed or has obtained their own nuclear arsenal and a threat is imminent.
 
Boring episode. Probably just doing some stock market manipulation.
it seems everything he has done has been some sort of stock market manipulation. I wonder if anyone has studied the stock market as the predictor for Trump's subsequent behaviors.

Iran needs to urgently get nukes, or hope that a real non-confrontationist (like Sanders) wins the next election. There is no way that the US under Trump for another 5 years won't attack them *.

Alternately, they could do a regime change, and be nice guys. Or just be B_F_F with Israel. Heck, a 180 degree in change of relations with Israel will make Iran's the chosen one in the Middle East, though it will probably be the end of their regime.

* Not necessarily true. He oscillates from all talk and no show to doing something insane but not necessarily war-worthy.
 
France or the UK or the other parties he called out should say : ok Don, we ll back away from the agreement and say : oh and btw we negotiated our own agreement.

NATO should say: so first you admonish us and now you say you need us? Haha.

Dems can now say that the President not only called us fellow Americans, didn't ask God to bless America, he also didn't dare say anything to Iran about threatening to hit the US on its own soil.

Oh and btw why didn't he at least say it's unfortunate to hear about the loss of life with the Ukrainian airliner going down after boasting no Americans were killed by Iran?
