  1. Give me a fucking break, dude. Israel doesn't believe Iran would nuke them any more than I do. The reasoning given for their pre-emptive strike is 100% complete and utter bullshit, and every serious person in the world fucking knows it. The true goal is and always has been regime change. The nuclear program is a red herring and you should be smart enough to recognize it. You should ask yourself if you would be this concerned if Saudi Arabia possessed a nuclear weapon, considering they A) areone of the two main countries that we're doing this at the behest of, and B) they have literally attacked us in deadly fashion this century. If your answer is no, you should take that as a major clue that you need to re-examine your world view. I'm not even saying the true goal is a bad one. Obviously, of course it would be a big positive if Iran were no longer run by extremists. At least then one of the countries in this fucked up devil's 3 way wouldn't be. We (and Israel) have to lie to the world about it because regime change is not considered adequate reasoning to unilaterally attack a country by any measure of international law or decorum. Period, end of story.
  2. How much 60+% enriched uranium do you think they have? You could haul their entire stockpile somewhere in the bed of a mid-90s Chevy S10.
  3. Ok so when I say that I should be clear that I mean if they wanted to obtain a nuke to drop on Israel or some such other suicidal nonsense, they could have done it by now. Considering how very obviously interested Iran is in self preservation, there is no chance at all they would attempt such a thing. I personally could not care less if they want to build nukes as a deterrent, which of course is the real reason to have nukes: to not get nuked. Of course, it'd be great if nobody had nukes. More nukes is not a good thing, but everyone with a functioning frontal cortex understands that isn't the real calculus here. If you can't look at the past 30 years and recognize this is all performative nonsense, I don't know what to tell you.
  4. This is what a lifetime of uncritically deepthroating propaganda gets you. If Iran doesn't want a war, how do you propose they are going to kill us? The Force? It takes some wild mental gymnastics to claim they don't want a war and that we have to do a performative bombing because they want to kill us in the same breath. Do you hear yourself? If Iran wanted a nuke they would have had one by now. Use your brain instead of mainlining state department propaganda just one time.
  5. I want you to think about what you said and get back to me.
  6. Glad all of this had a point and accomplished things!
  7. Cope. We started a war. You wanna back out now?
  8. I 'member when I got yelled at for saying the US and Israel are the biggest state sponsors/perpetrators of terror in the world.
  9. Except it almost always is?
  10. Meanwhile, our "strongest" Middle East allies are terrorist states like Saudi Arabia and Israel.
  11. Yeah I meant it has shifted into overall unfavorable. Polling data is empirical data, doesn't matter what conclusion it suggests. I did not intend to mischaracterize what you said.
  12. Like just to be clear, this is what people have a major problem with. Several high ranking US government officials have literally come out and outright said this, THIS WEEK. You act like we're making this shit up.
  13. Do you mean the bald little Nazi or the Youtube conspiracy theorist? Just so we're clear.
  14. I...don't even have words for that take. Least of which being the notion that most people have a favorable opinion of Israel when empirical data flatly contradicts that.
  15. I'd sell half the posters on this board to an El Salvadorian prison for some good shawarma.
  16. "Well I've never heard of it" is not a good defense against any argument. There are numerous lawmakers that have, just this week mind you, claimed we have some kind of biblical mandate to do what we're doing.
  17. Our Secretary of Mother Fucking Defense is an out and about Christian nationalist extremist that has flat out admitted in so many words that he would like to engage in a modern Crusade but sure, go off king. e: grammar
  18. It's all scare propaganda to manufacture consent for wiping Iran off the map, been going on for decades. They have to be a super scary enemy that could attack us at any moment. Nevermind that we are doing this at the behest of not only Israel, but also the country the fucking did 9/11.
  19. People read too much fucking Tom Clancy I swear to god
  20. The sleeper cells bullshit is just another way to manufacture consent.
  21. Can someone translate these posts? I seriously want to know what the contention is.
  22. You are posting word salad. What are you actually trying to say?
