I’ll bet the decision had something to do with trump’s massive ego.
But women are "too emotional" to be president. Fucking hell, just choke on hamberder already.
o ok that makes it ok then nvm my furious outrage. gj buddy.
the president’s decision to strike was not driven by ~~any new U.S.~~ intelligence ~~on Iran~~.
FTFY.
There is no intelligence in the whole administration, we know.
You know I’m lying, and I know that you know, and you know that I know that you know, but I go ahead with a straight face, and you nod seriously and take notes.
The bald faced lies are like the final insult. Even during the lead up to Iraq they made a show of trying to fake intelligence enough to suit their goals. Now it's just, fuck it we ball, and say whatever, who cares, and who cares if they know we're lying, they can't do anything about it.

Ship Trump to Iran and let them do what they will
How about making that "Deport Trump to Iran and tell their president this is the asshole who gave the order to attack the nuclear facilities in your country, and then leave them and get the hell out of there while leaving them to do whatever the hell they want with him"

Wasn't the picture of 1970s Iranian women (dressed like US 1970s women) just floating around a couple months along with the attached comment stating "pictures of places before Muslim rule floating around means the US is about to bomb them" or does that just happen every year
Iran was a liberal democracy before the US helped topple it and install the Ayatollah.
The US is complicit in all the violence they did to their people.
Not quite. It was a liberal democracy until the US helped topple it and install the Shah, who was then toppled by Khomeini.
Many such cases of liberal democracies being toppled by the Us in favor of dictators
It really shouldn't be surprising that the US liberal democracy got toppled by a dictator when we seem to love such foreign policy.
Yeah. The problem with American democracy is that they loved capitalism more than democracy and that is bad

The Intel probably came in the form of a new deposit clearing in Trump’s bank account
Who uses bank accounts anymore? They probably bought a bunch of $TRUMP. Doesn't every US President have their own private currency?
Antiquities scholars of some future alien race thumbing through hard drives like Roman coins
It’s interesting to note that Biden didn’t bomb Iran.
Or Obama.
So many missed opportunities for O-bomb-a jokes
I'm still waiting to see Big Beautiful Bunker Busting Bomb

Israel asked him to do it
Probably to pull the spotlight off them killing a bunch of people in their beds while they were sleeping

He’s trying to get ahead of a mob and call it a parade.
See how his last one went to figure out how this will go.
Seemed pretty obvious that Bibi wanted Trump to win and intentionally stalled Gaza ceasefire agreements to make Biden/Harris look bad.
This may have been Trump returning his end of the bargain (or Trump is just a shortsighted and stupid piece of shit).
Bibi's got kompromat on him, Epstein may have been Mossad
lol Republicans don't give a shit about anything he's done or could do. They like Trump and there's nothing in this world that could change that.
Obviously. But that's why Trump's doing what he's doing. That's all.
The girl looked just like Ivanka. It would damage his relationship with his favorite child in an unfixable way.

As evidenced by the other golden boy of the Party dropping that exact bomb, and nobody cared
More accurately, his girlfriend is, he’d probably be consider an asset. An important distinction on whether you protect them when they’re in trouble.
Epstein claimed at least once to be Mossad, and Maxwell's dad apparently was.
Maxwell’s Dad was an interesting guy if you read up on him. The dude had a lot of enemies via his business dealings and him being a literal spy for MI6/Mossad. Some believe Mossad even assassinated him, but I don’t really believe it.
