Seems like a great way to get worldwide support for Israel and the US

Didn’t they say at the beginning that they wouldn’t target civilians?

What a nice way of having the world band together and do a Desert Storm on you?

Spoken like a bunch of terrorist thugs. Which is totally in character for their axis of evil membership status.

This was a genuinely stupid decision, since they had a legitimate claim to play the “we want to be left alone” card against two foreign leaders no one likes, which coupled with economic pain, could have forced them to capitulate. Now they’re justifying both of their calls that the regime must be destroyed.

This is exactly why that piece of shit regime needs to go. Don’t threaten fucking parks and recreational areas

That would be one way to pull in NATO for certain.

Wow Iran says they’re going to do Iran things? Shocker

Iran noticed Trump was having a hard time being convincing to his “allies” so they decided to give him a hand.

They’re really leaning into the terrorist bit

Well looky here, that’s terrorism.

You mean the terrorism guys are going to do… more terrorism. Got it.

Apparently the whole world, all civilians of any nation, is complicit in this targeted attack on Iran’s military.

Meanwhile the pro-Palestine crowd is already claiming any act of terrorism would be a “false flag operation” dismissing the bar attack in Austin, Synagogue attack in Michigan, and NY bomb thrown at protest. They give list of reasons why it’s acceptable to target unarmed civilians at music festivals. We have a whole demographic that are blatantly pro-terrorist while also denying that it happens, while also justifying it…

Whether you agree with the US/Israel strikes on Iran or not, I hope more people on the American left (and anti-war maga right) acknowledge that the Iranian government is a morally bankrupt and routinely acts in bad faith.
That doesnt mean we should have attacked.

The dumbest thing they could do is target civilians. Americans are generally against this war. If iran takes responsibility for a terrorist attack in american soil the attitudes of americans can quickly change and all of a sudden everyone wants to give the government unlimited money for war.

Lol, yeah this is 1 of the ways they can lose this war through conventional means. They legitimately had a path to win through targeted responses ,negotiations and economic hardship, but threatening agreed upon terrorism will lose all the “US and Israel are the aggressor” political play they had. We really are stuck playing all the hits from the early 2000s
Sethmeisterg on
That would be a strategic mistake. Right now most of the population is against this war. Once you target civilians, that can change pretty damn fast.

“Oh look, the western world is somewhat sympathetic to our government in the first time in history. How should we capitalize on this?”
“Oooo I know, let’s specifically threaten their civilian populations with random acts of terrorism!”
“Yes! That’s genius! Write that down!”

They won’t stand a chance if they end up facing Ron Swanson, though…

Sounds like an intentional war crimes…

I bet you Trump wants that so he can go all in and skip midterms.

I wonder if there are any major sporting events coming up in the near future that could be at risk? Probably not a concern, FIFA has their best on it I am sure.

I worry about what could happen this summer with the World Cup taking place in various cities across North America.

Interesting, if they will choose the Gadaffi way.
I hope innocent people will be safe.
