You have to start a war to prevent a war that's been a war for forty years, which is technically not a war. Got it. Thank you Fox (Desi, you are the greatest)

QUESTION: Given that Unpresidental Hurrumph's unnecessary, unwanted, & unauthorized invasion of another sovereign nation was able to "obliterate" Iran's airforce, naval, and missile defense capabilities on the first day, how were they any kind of threat to the United States (immediate or long term) EVEN IF THEY HAD POSSESSED FUNCTIONING NUCLEAR WEAPONS?

To prevent further mix ups. President Trump has merged Iran and Iraq into one single entity and demanded that each nation drop the last letter of there name to form a Super Country called Ira.

Come on guys, Hollywood needs another war so they can make movies about how they won the war all on there own.
Well at least this time this might actually be true, but I wonder if the butchers bill will be worth it?

The Iranians have been at war with us since 1953, when they elected Socialist Prime Minister Mossadegh who promised to raise the price of oil FIFTY CENTS A BARREL. . Republican CIA Director Allen Dulles paid Iranian Generals a huge BRIBE to overthrow their elected government in a military coup. Republican CIA Director Allen Dulles also started the Vietnam War in 1954 when he convinced President Eisenhower to BLOCK Free, Fair UN Elections in Vietnam.

Netanyahu tricked Trump into the war. He told Trump that Israel was about to strike and Trump attacked them first so he could make the war all about himself. He is so desperate for attention I almost feel sorry for him.

So, 9/11 wasn't war, it was just a strategic operation.
@hepdepaddel
May 8, 2026 at 1:54 am
Like his buddy Putin, who is making a ton of money these days thanks to increased oil prices and lifted sacntions, the stable orange does not fight a war. It is just a special military operation.

This is just a license for the terrorists to target the United States!

May 8, 2026 at 1:54 am
Yep, crystal clear. Does anyone even listesn to Trump anymore? Does anyone take anything serious anymore that comes out of the White House? Does anyone even wants to? Or just tune it out as background noise and just watch what is actually happening according to people elsewhere? The White House, the GOP and FOX are such a waste of time. Life is too short.

Word on the street (and I don't understand how this is not more obvious) is that Dooshabagga started this war as prelude for the next Nobel Peace Prize he's counting on.
