I’m okay with the bombing, but if it turns into full-on war with troops being deployed in Iran then I would not support that

The armchair politicians in the LGBTQIA+ community would shit themselves if they saw these results.

Most of the democrats who are pro war are media figures and politicians, not regular people

Iran isn’t the one with the power. They don’t get to set the terms

Have you looked at that deal? It’s a shitty deal that they gain significantly more from than the US or Israel do. Why accept it when we can get the same effect by blowing them up?

Negotiations generally involve both parties setting terms and trying to reconcile them, otherwise it is not a deal And Iran certainly has significant power here. Iran is a top 20 military power and has been for years, and is in the top 10 globally in active military manpower, while also not in any other wars to divide its manpower. The US couldn’t win a war against the Taliban in Afghanistan and hasn’t fought this significant of a military power since WWII, you think it could win against Iran?

Aside from basic morality, Trump’s bombing being blatantly unconstitutional, and international law? The US does not have the capacity to win a war against Iran while remaining a global military presence, and this could very easily drag us into a quagmire that makes the wars in Iraq, Vietnam, and Afghanistan look like nothing in comparison, and that’s assuming this doesn’t become a broader regional or world war, which is a very big assumption

The US couldn’t beat the Taliban and the Iranian military is much stronger than the Taliban. The US has a very powerful military, but that military is spread across the world. If the whole military was gonna withdraw from everywhere else to concentrate on one target that’d be different, but that would mean an end to American empire. Again, America has not fought a war against a country with this string of a military since WWII, and America has lost plenty of wars in that time

Iran also wasn’t trying to build nuclear weapons. US intelligence and nuclear inspectors have said repeatedly that the country doesn’t have a nuclear weapons program and hasn’t had one since 2003. The allegation that they were trying to build a nuclear weapon is a lie just like the Bush Administration lied about WMDs in Iraq, but this time US intelligence didn’t even pretend it was true

Winning a war of defense is much easier than a war of aggression. If Iran attacked the US the US could obviously win that war, the same is not true for the US attacking Iran. If the US military committed the amount of resources that would be needed to actually win a war against Iran China or Russia actuallt would be able to take on the US

I have no interest in defending the Iranian regime, the difference with you is I also don’t have interest in defending the American one.

Being top 20 still doesn’t put them anywhere near us. They do not have power here, as seen by the ceasefire today.
