When the president says it, it’s not a curse word.

If I’ve learned anything from the last 5 years, it’s that we should ignore all rhetoric and realize a large military build up means they’re going in and they have already decided to go in.

My honest take is that Trump hasn’t made up his mind yet. He’s indecisive. He enjoys flashy shows of aggression but doesn’t really commit, which makes TACO more likely than not, but he’s at most one conversation away from ordering a nuclear strike.

This is a war that Iran cannot lose.

Iran will not be another Iraq, ruined by decades of sanctions because (1) it’s already adjusted to sanctions and (2) Russia and china are its partners.

Iran won’t be defeated by missiles alone. Even if they lose their nuclear program… so what? That’s the status quo. Iran doesn’t have nukes now. Nothing actually changes.

Iran won’t be invaded by ground forces. Israel can’t do it and likely even America couldn’t do it. Iran is strong and has backing. It would be like Afghanistan except against a modern fighting force. America couldn’t even do Afghanistan 2.0 right now, it cannot invade Iran.

Iran won’t be bombed into submission and face a regime change. It’s clear the mood of the people isn’t there.

Iran has won. It’s a question of how many civilians get killed before the west acknowledges this.

Being “anti-Semitic” now includes being a Jewish person protesting against the German government.

Esfahan nuclear facilities were targeted several times on June 13. No increase in off-site radiation levels has been reported as of now. The IAEA remains in close contact with Iran.

Harming the civilian population to such an extent, as has increasingly been the case in recent days, can no longer be justified

On the third hand, not doing adventurism hasn’t achieved much either
