U.S. attacks Iran

[Don Alaska]

Well, seeing that we paid for it, built it and many Americans died doing it, Why shouldn't we take over. We sold it to Panama for one dollar w/ stipulation. But Trump did not want to do that either.

Plus there was the stipulation that the U.S. could take back the canal if any foreign power endangered it. China's messing around fell under that proviso.

Could Trump have ended the Middle East war with a cease fire agreed to by both Iran and Israel? There have been some violations, but the fact that it was agreed to by both parties might be a good thing. It is so good that AOC and Bernie are pushing for another impeachment. That alone indicates that Trump is doing wonders and the Dems are at a loss.

If we're lucky the cease-fire break was an accident followed by an overreaction, and embarrassing for both sides. So maybe things can rumble and stutter down to some sort of quiet for a while... giving time for a resolution that lasts at least a few years.

I'm not sure about any long-term fixes though. This part of the world seems allergic to peace.

Very odd.

Bot farmers and disinformation sweatshops operating across the Internet are nothing new. And what better way to communicate with sleeper cells?

A lot of people seem to be giving these theories credence:

Trump NUKES Post-War Order: King Charles Exposes British Hand in Desperate Effort to Stop Trump

I'm not sure quite what to think, but many pieces seem to fit.

Only Trump was attacked for using military action without Congressional approval. For those who turn their nose up at youtube for news, read any of Thomas Sowell's publications, especially on slavery.

Obama was perhaps the biggest user of American military forces without Congressional consent. He even killed at least one American citizen overseas with a drone and no trial whatever. He suffered no outcry or censure of any kind. From what I have read, the Korean War was the only military action of any size with no Congressional okay. Truman not only committed American troops in large numbers to foreign combat, but also placed them under the command of officers from other nations (although Americans were the overall commanders because we supplied the most troops and equipment.

Are we not charitable for ejecting illegals?

Iran has reportedly begun killing protestors. Fox says 203 people have been confirmed killed by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard. Some reports say thousands have been killed. This is exactly what Trump warned Iran against doing. U.S. bases throughout the Middle East have gone on high alert and are locked down. The troops used in Venezuela have been loaded onto planes and flown to somewhere in the Middle East reportedly. Something apparently is going to happen. Iran has threatened "vital targets within the U.S." The Cuban bodyguards of Madura are reporting that the U.S. used some kind of weapon they had never seed before. It is said to have made the guards feel like their heads were exploding, but it didn't kill them. Perhaps the same weapon will be used in Iran. If the troops capture the Ayatollah like they did Maduro, that would mean the government in Iran would likely collapse, but would it protect the U.S. from retribution?

@galty I saw a report that Starmer has been declared the biggest liar on X and Elon Musk is sanctioning him. He, in turn, thinks he can get Canada, Australia and New Zealand to join him in banning X from their respective countries. He apparently thinks he can defeat Elon Musk in this manner. If Iran can't keep it out, I don't think the UK can do so. Will the other countries join him in his boycott? Who knows. Musk can smuggle StarLink into the countries and keep going as usual. Musk is giving away StarInk equipment in the U.S. We could get the equipment free and spend a few dollars monthly for service. Some here are getting it and storing it. If you don't activate it, it costs you nothing...just in case.

Starmer is a moron, his attack on X has gone down badly.

Sooner hes gone the better for the country.

It sounds like he is making up stuff to cover his butt.
