Good evening Maquis! You had several peeps asking for you on the Iran/bombing thread. 😀
I contemplated maybe he was on a secret mission… I mean, the timing…
You didn’t know Maquis is a B-1 bomber pilot ? lol. Shhh don’t “Dox” him.
Thank you, Maquis. We are always right here with you even if when we don’t mention much.. Most appreciated, my good brother!
AMEN!
Amen! Thank you Maquis!
President Trump is transparent in his words and actions. He is consistent in what he says, what he does, and what he asks/demands of others. His promises are bold and he keeps them like no other president has. He is making massive, nearly overnight changes, not only in the country, but in the world. It is amazing that he is able to accomplish so much when there are so many snakes in the grass. This term, he is weeding them out faster.
The purpose of President Trump is plainly visible and consistent: He is for the benefit first of the common PEOPLE of this country, then of the PEOPLE in the rest of the world. It is validating, even to our battered conservative skepticism.
The methods of his leadership are amazing. I still don’t get HOW he does it, or HOW he is able to get so much momentum going, but every day the momentum is growing. Everyone and every organization has their eyes opened every day — just by watching him. Even those who hate him, are biased against him, and want to see him gone — cannot ignore him. He lives rent free in their head, and they come around to seeing the universal principles by which he is operating. He hammers actions based on truth from one direction, then another, and they cannot mount an organized opposition against him.
He has chosen to use his intellect and every skill he has to do what is right. He has tremendous faith that he can make a difference in this world. He has a confidence and courage such that he doesn’t care what others think, yet a humility to know he has to do it with the help of like minded people. Those people are the “common” people, and he ridicules those who think they are not common.
He believes people are basically good. He believes that God is real. He believes that healthy people are happy people, and they need to be able to create wealth freely for their labor, and have the freedom to spend their money on what is good for them.
He believes the United States, with its Constitutional Republic, is the best environment in the world to enable and give opportunity for people to be happy and prosperous.
He believes that we can be a light for the world, but we must demand that the rest of the world respect us and our right to life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of happiness.
He believes the enemy of our country are the stupid, greedy American people who have been selfishly taking advantage of this country; who betrayed the trust and obedience of its people; and who diverted the people’s wealth for their own selfish gain, at the expense of the principles of this country. He’s not going to allow that anymore.
He has cultivated and focused the family of MAGA. Identifying those people whose goodness, industriousness, trust, and obedience have been taken advantage of and abused. He has opened our eyes to this abuse, and the rights of freedom and self determination that have been quietly stolen from us.
He has rekindled the healthy distrust of government and men with too much power held by our founders. He has recultivated the desire to reclaim our freedoms and rights, and is empowering us with a hope and pathway to reclaim our spiritual and economic freedom.
He wants the US to be a light of hope on the hill for all people. He will negotiate win/win agreements with those nations and countries who respect us; who respect the principles and intent of our Constitution. If you do not respect us, however, we are not going to let you take advantage of our goodness, or share in our wealth at our expense. If you as a nation are treating your people badly, you are going to be treated less favorably by us, until you show that you value your people as much as we value ours.
He is convincing those who are very wealthy (most of whom truly earned their money), that the best economic soil in which to build wealth is in a constitutional republic, which supports the ability of the common man to earn wealth in proportion to his efforts. The economic engine of the United States is the human spirit freed to enjoy the fruits of honest labor, and that engine has more natural and raw horsepower than any other governed economy.
The Trump Train seems to be remarkably aligned with universal principles of Truth, which reflect the will and design of our Creator, and are the best standard by which we should live. These same principles were what our country’s founders used to declare independence, and framed into the Constitution of this nation.
Our founders believed that a nation should preserve the right and freedom of an individual to seek, understand, and live by God’s principles. They believed that free individuals working together in humility would make a stronger nation than a government which dictates its will on the people. President Trump professes and seeks to lead and restore this nation back to these same principles.
These principles resonate deeply within all human beings, down to our DNA in every cell, in our spirits, and produce fruit that “miraculously” multiplies. Because we follow universal principles, we see the snowballing acceleration of momentum on day 154 of the 2nd term of this very stable genius in the history of the kingdoms of this world in the year of our Lord 2025.
Amen !

“This is a distraction. What are they really doing?”
The Islamic Republic (The Arab Ayatollah/Mullah Regime) supported and initially financed by the intelligence/enforcement agencies of the Marxist/Globalist Cabal, which has been illegitimately running things in Iran (Persia) since about 1978, is collapsing.
The Israelians are taking out the rest of the military installations.
Much of the military personnel and state employees have pledged allegiance to the Crown Prince, Reza Pahlavi (son of Reza Shah).
Many of the mullahs have fled the country, presumably to Oman.
Even though the regime is Arab-none of the Arab countries have come to their rescue.
Last week Russia offered asylum to the Supreme Leader Ayatollah.
Not sure if Ayatollah went to Russia, or Oman with some of the other clerics, or if he’s still in country hiding.
Last week Crown Prince Reza spoke to some members of Congress and you can read his remarks by scrolling down to June 18th on this link:
https://xcancel.com/PahlaviReza
Basically, the old regime is out (or almost out) and the Crown Prince will keep things under control until their senate and other government officials can be elected.
The whole idea being- to make Iran Persia again.
The Deep State and NATO may not be too happy about it; otherwise, it looks like it’s going over fairly well.
0.o
Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.
Don’t get fooled again.
It’s all about the oil.
r0ng.
It’s about a lot of things, including oil.
And I’m not getting fooled about anything.
Carry on.

The China-Iran Railway bears watching.
So far, as of this morning, it looks like it hasn’t taken any strikes or been damaged by seismic activity.
“The railway between China and Iran is currently operational and intact.
The first freight train from China arrived in Iran on May 25, 2025, marking the official launch of the direct rail link between the two countries.
This new logistical route significantly reduces transit times, from 30–40 days by sea to roughly 15 days by land.
The railway is part of the broader East-West Corridor, which aims to link China with Iran, the Persian Gulf, Africa, and eventually Europe.
Despite challenges such as infrastructure compatibility and varying rail gauges, the route remains functional and has seen a 2.6 times growth in container traffic in the first months of 2025.
Additionally, six countries—Kazakhstan, Iran, China, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, and Turkey—have agreed on steps to develop the route, indicating ongoing commitment to its success.
The rail corridor is also seen as a strategic alternative to other trade routes, offering a more secure and sanction-free pathway for trade between China and Iran.”
0.o
Very inciteful. Thank you.
“a strategic alternative to other trade routes”…namely shipping.
Which “Empire” ruled the Seas and controlled all the ship traffic and shipping lanes for so long? Which Empire exerted power and control to eliminate alternate trade routes such as rail systems? The British Empire.
“No Kings Day” you say? I guess they were gathering for the correct cause after all. They even waved signs. They just didn’t realize who they were waving those signs for or against.
No better day than Flag Day to do it either. And on the Army’s 250th Birthday. The same Army that threw off the King 250 years ago. Delicious!
Yes. The Railway is part of China’s Belt and Road Initiative which will hopefully assist countries in that part of the world in escaping the British Empire’s chokehold on trade and transportation.
The No Kings Day protests were an hysterical, pitiful flop.
Almost the entirety of the attendees were white college kids and white boomer-aged liberals.
There were videos all over the net of these white libtards going bananas because Black and Hispanic people (besides illegals) wouldn’t come out and support their cause (whatever it was supposed to be).
Hahahahahaha!

So China cannot get Iranian oil.
Iran and the Mullahs ARE NOT ARAB, they are PERSIAN.
Just as thet are shiites, Not Suni .
The current Ayatollah (since 1989) is Arab, his people being from Iraq<Arabs.
The first Ayatollah was born in Iran, however from what I have been able to ascertain, his people are Arabs going back<with a paternal grandfather being from Kintoor.
Many Arabs live and were born in the land known as Persia or Iran.
Arabs and Persians differ ethnically and culturally.
Persians emphasize their distinct ethnic identity, tracing their roots back to the ancient Persian Empire.

I hope ML….here…..
No matter what hair-splitting BS gets written or spoken about this iran strike, I just remember that PDJT is our weapon, and there is a 99% chance that ‘We The People’ will benefit in the long run.
Solid.
I stand by my President.
The man took a bullet for me, and a crap ton besides that.
I will never move from his side as long as his MAGA integrity holds.
I’ll support him even when he make mistakes. everyone is fully capable of making mistakes. I am not suggesting he has made one, only to point out, that there are moments in your life, when you accept a higher responsibility and I cannot even begin to imagine the kind of turmoil and sleepless nights and endless discussions and incredible energy he has spent to make our nation safer. FOR THAT HE DESERVES MY LOYALTY. FOR THAT I AM ACCOUNTABLE TO MAKE SURE I DO EVERYTHING IN MY POWER THAT HE KNOWS HE IS SUPPORTED AND NOT ALONE IN THIS WORK.
being a patriot to me, is very personal. It’s not a casual activity. It is a sacred oath. I believe in this President because he has obviously taken this sacred oath and is delivering his promise to do his level best to make this America Great again, safe and strong. For that, I salute him and will be supporting him
through
thick
and
thin
God Bless America
You speak for me as well.
So do I, and I’m glad he took the nukes away from the crazies. Now I hope he will pay more attention to cleaning up the elections to prevent the wanton thefts that have plagued us and given the left a much louder voice than they would have had the elections not been rigged.
💯 support for 🦁 👑.
I have only grumbled over the prospect of getting involved in another war.
However, I have never regretted voting for him 3x.
Due to the fact that I reside in California — I should have been allowed to vote for him 100x to cancel out my share of illegal votes.
God bless, America!
🙏❤️🇺🇲
Thankfully, our President Trump can multi-task and election integrityq work continues.
You can say that a million times, along with the myriad of fresh new contributors that think this is a great occasion.
It isn’t.
We are on a new path, It will a different Presidency from here on. For better or worse.
PDJT priorities will/have to shift, and from now on, there will be more pyrrhic victories, better pr, window dressing, and less substance.
But, but, he is our weapon. Accept that responsibility.
He has also become the weapon of a foreign country.
Not true. And your Trump bashing is getting old.
Never bashed PDJT.
Fot the last 10 years or so that I have been posting.
Try something else” new friend”.
Maybe you “never bashed PDJT” but you routinely damn him with faint praise.
I love President Trump, Boogy . You know that. I am not pleased with this turn of events. Am I not allowed to voice my displeasure?
none of us are pleased
that doesn’t mean it was necessary or not
I reserve that judgment for President Trump
and, of course, I worry about his advisors
and bad intel
those of us old enough to know
cannot forget the supposed Iraq WMD’s
and, in the interest of the glass being half full
other nations will see our power, might and will to use it
I really like surgical strikes if anything has to be done
no boots on the ground
Caleb, you might not “think” so, but you might take heed of what others are pointing out. However, you are in good company here with a few others who are very quick to criticize, but do not offer any useful alternatives. Simply bashing and questioning everyone’s actions (or lack thereof, simply because it’s not in your personal time frame) gets very old.
“but you routinely damn him with faint praise”
Horse$h!t
Show me some examples. Should be easy to find.
I believe this is the first time I have ever said, that believe that PDJT made a mistake.
I have my opinion, you have yours.
You on the other hand routinely throw around unfounded accusations of anti-semitism whenever Israel is mentioned.
And nonsensical. Just more Pyrrhic victories with zero reasoning. Just silliness.
Call me a Trump basher I dare ya.
I posted on this thread updates to “radiation contamination”. I encourage you to read the last link and at least give it a review. I will always defend you and others who have views, even if and when I do not agree with them. Because that’s just how I believe, what I believe. To have different views about the manner of how the military is used must be debated…always. I do it often. But I think there are some things I can share and encourage you to read the last link especially to get a good summary of what has led US to this point. I believe it helps explain the motives, the actions, and the moral decision. And while yes, it is true that President Trump believes in a strong relationship and will help protest Israel, it would be incorrect to describe this as solely “a weapon OF a foreign country”.
there is much more to it than that. I encourage you to see the broader picture. Or not. I’ve made a gesture of good will here to you. As I am certain you have only the best of intentions yourself. We can agree to disagree. we can also share facts that help each other out so we can understand each other.
God Bless America
Regs
Thanks, for your well intentioned response. I have always enjoyed your contributions. Still do 🙂
Will have a look at your link.
Rest assured I believe PDJT to be a moral man, with only the best intentions. My support, as always will be there.
Remember if you don’t agree. It’s just my opinion, nothing more, nothing less. Obviously I may be wrong, even wildly so.
“God Bless America”
Amen
roger that. appreciate your service to this country, from one to another!
God Bless America
Likewise Regitger
Yep.
Wrong.
If you had read any article on this site before posting you would know how wrong you are.
Entirely wrong.
Hamas is finished.
Hezbollah is shattered.
The Assad regime (Syria), longtime supporter and enabler of Iran’s shia regime, is gone.
The destabilizing forces in the ME are being eliminated.
Not one arab country is intervening.
Nor is either Russia or China.
The Abahram Accords, bringing peace between the major arab nations and Israel, are coming next.
Your assessment is uninformed.
This is the real reason they have the case of the sads.
All of their best laid plans to destroy Israel have failed.
Not only have they failed but they have destroyed themselves greatly in the process.
furthermore the acceleration toward a caliphate has taken a serious curb stomp. chatter has it that many of the so called religious death cult fanatics have left the country. That Russia has extended an invitation to the supreme leader that he can travel to russia. The Iranian military will likely perform some form of a coup or at least a fundamental shift and its seeks new leadership. As well, the people in Iran have an opportunity now to act and start elections to choose their leaders.
the world is changing…with all the hand wringing from the usual suspects…the world just got that much safer in a matter of 154 days.
I am impressed beyond words.
God Bless America
God Bless our champion, President Trump
china can suck it.
uh-huh…
“Hamas is finished.
Hezbollah is shattered”
Be sure to remind us of that in a few months time.
”The Assad regime (Syria), longtime supporter and enabler of Iran’s shia regime, is gone.”
If you can call Al-Qaeda an improvement, run with it… see how that works out.
“The destabilizing forces in the ME are being eliminated.”
Again, be sure to remind us of this, in a few months time…
”Not one arab country is intervening.”
why would they?
Iran isn’t Arab, it’s Persian.
85% of Arabs are Sunni not Shia muslims.
Money, money, money.
“Be sure to remind us of that in a few months time.”
Nah.
I’m sure you’ll be here to gloat and cheer them on if I’m wrong.
I’ll be here to cheer The USA on.
Count on it.
No I won’t.
Forever wars are nothing to gloat about.
You aren’t wrong. They might find new sponsors and might backfill all the dead leadership, but forcing that is part of the program.
Don’t worry, Caleb.
It’s unlikely that anyone around here will ever accuse you of being an expert in geo-politics.
0.o
Don’t worry, I’m just too old to care care if anyone thinks I’m an expert in anything, or not.
You mad bro?
Not at all “bro”:
Are you?
OK. They likely don’t and you’re good. Keep rolling.
👍
Your assessment about Hamas, Hezbollah and Syria is the same assessment from Victor Davis Hanson. I posted his podcast down thread here.
He includes the Houthis in Yemen as well. They are all essentially finished. Iran is left as a terrorist supporting state with no terrorists left to do their bidding.
Similar to VDH’s assessment of Tariffs. He said “the worry of Tariffs causing all sorts of problems” is not supported by the facts surrounding it. He then laid out the facts surrounding it.
He says the same about this action against Iran. The “fear that this action will cause all sorts of problems” is not supported by the facts surrounding it. He then lays out the facts and background to support his claim.
Here’s that VDH podcast. Figured it’s easier to just post it here than try to find it down thread. It’s from a few days ago so before last night’s actions. He discusses Iran/that region at around the 3-6 minute mark of the podcast.

What you just described is the overall failings of the use of pushing narratives to create reality instead of looking at what is actually reality!
This is a method, they are saying LISTEN to us and think you are informed instead of you Looking at the real results and forming your own reality, which is THE Reality.
Gather real information outside of their bubble and connect your own dots, refuse to be led by ‘Narratives’.
It’s like it’s raining and the grass is now wet.
The powers that be, the media talking heads, they say “That grass is not wet” and the sheep now think it’s not wet and parrot that it’s not wet.. even though we just watched rain fall out of the sky and know that of course the grass is wet.
They want you to actually listen to them and ignore what know and see with your own eyes- and many people do !!
This is how stupid so much of what they say really is..
We need to pay no attention at all to these narrative pushers.
Stop forming your opinions based upon the input of people pushing a Narrative, narratives are not Reality, it’s not honest, you are truly not informed at all if this is how your form your opinions.
This is what VDH is laying out.. he’s showing us that what they are pushing has zero to with what the real numbers are showing.
What I’m pointing out is that this is all a method, a tool that they are using.
It’s the promotion of disinformation meant to lead people astray and keep them scared, in the dark and not knowing what is really going on so that the masses will then be controlled, so that they will behave in predictive ways.
Don’t be a part of all of that, think for yourselves!
Exactly.
And President Trump as a Masterclass Communicator can cut through all the Bulls#hit by communicating directly with the American citizens through his Truth Social Account.
Yemen has said that it will target US ships.
Yemen has always been at war with anybody that threatens their way of life.
The Iranian people are happy, especially the women.
Lord, bless our leaders with wisdom and discernment. May they seek You in every decision they make.
Proverbs 2:6-7 For the Lord gives wisdom ;from his mouth come knowledge and understanding. 7 He holds success in store for the upright he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless,
From tonight’s speech
I’m reposting my experience from the presidents short and to the point speech. I’m glad to see that the prayer at the end of his speech impressed Kinthenorthwest as well. Here’s my thoughts:
I can’t get the prayer of President Trump out of my mind.
Realizing the weight of so many fronts on the war he is fighting for our nation, and especially the tension we have felt as a nation about Iran, and what he must have been feeling as he planned; then made the decision; then watched it unfold in the situation room, seeing the success of the mission, and then our warriors safely out.
Immediately after watching it unfold he goes with his top advisors to We the American People — for whom he has turned over the rest of his life.
I have listened to it starting at 3:30 several times. At normal speed, at .25 speed, at .5 speed, and especially at .75 speed. I encourage you to do it as well.
The pause. The voice inflection, tone, the baring of his soul. For a brief moment, he is fully transparent, before God and in very personal communication with Him, while standing in front of the world:
After concluding his speech and announcing that Pete Hegseth will have a press conference at the Pentagon at 8am….. [ His prayer]
“And I want to just thank everybody, and in particular: God, I want to just say, we love you God, and we love our great military — Protect them. God bless the Middle East. God bless Israel, and God bless America. Thank you very very much. Thank you”
“God, I just want to say, We love you God”. — Says the President of the United States
Thank you Doc!
I trust President Trump without reservation. He is a good and honorable American.
!
I prayed that God infuse him with the wisdom of King David, whose devotion and loyalty to the Lord is an astounding lesson. Also the mercy of Jesus. When President Trump spoke those words, I thanked God.
And God bless and protect President Donald Trump..
Amen.
JD Vance didn’t get the red tie memo.
Or maybe he did?
This was a day I never thought I would see. I voted for this, three times. I was just at the Reagan Library today to see the Dead Sea Scrolls Exhibit. I marveled seeing a fragment from the Psalms. I also saw the display of when Ronald Reagan was shot, realizing PDJT was also shot. This President is truly cleaning up the Augean Stables. Half my family and friends hates the man, but he is doing a great service to both our nation and western civilization. He is in the league of the likes of Churchill, Lincoln, Alfred the Great.
A teenage daughter hates a father who won’t let her go to “that party” either. His actions are for her own good, but she just doesn’t realize it at the time.
She will eventually find out he’s right. Why? Because he’s been right about EVERYTHING!
Until then, he behaves like the Adult in the room and takes all the scorn from the Child he just rescued.
He is cleaning out the Augean Stables. He’s flipping over the Money Changer tables too. It is a massive reclamation and restoration project, BIG LEAGUE.
It is and has been a rescue mission from Day 1.
Remember, President Trump stated the domestic enemies are far worse that the foreign ones.
I support our Commander in Chief.
And George Washington.
Well, we can expect the fair weather crowd here to troll more than usual now that the other shoe has dropped.
The mad Mullahs have been chanting death to America for over 46 years now. Longer than that for Israel. They have used their proxies to kill and maim thousands throughout the middle east.
There was no way this was going to to turn out any other way than it did.
They bombed a hospital and not one damn nation or news outlet called them out for crimes against humanity.
That tells you all you need to know about the Mullahs and the rest of the so called civilized nations of this world.
The world siding with a terrorist, anti Semitic regime is going against God.
It’s not going to end well for any of them.
The media barely mentions the islamic foundational thoughts behind the Ayatollah and his mullahs. This was brought to the fore 20 years ago when Ahmadinejad was president and made a speech about it at the UN. They want to start a nuclear war ..even if a counterstrike kills every Iranian as they truly believe their so-call BS prophesy of the event heralding the return of the final 12th imam (the mahdi) from the stupid well. It is like Che Guevara expounding on the need to launch nukes at NYC and DC even at the cost of a million Cubans all in the name of Communist glory. Hopefully the stories of young Iranians abandoning islam in droves for Christianity is true. Hopefully more earthquakes flatten the rest of the nuke sites.
Also, I wish the media would take a hint from our Greatest Generation and their WWI vet leaders; stop blabbing about every damn ship, troop, or aircraft movement!!! It puts us all at risk. Fox was even showing all the names of the ships in the navy task forces in the Red Sea area and the waters south of the Straight of Hormuz. Those sailor families are at risk from terrorists at home. Just like that Green Beret that had to shoot the Iraqi power company linesman from a New Jersey company in his backyard near Fort Benning a few years back. Make the foreign spies have to work for their intelligence; don’t hand it to them on a damn silver platter. That airplane spotter website should only concern itself with Leonardo Di Caprio’s and Taylor Swift’s planes’ whereabouts.
“they” are afraid because they have invited openly islamist into their own nations, allowed them to build quasi sharia law factions and consider death cult speech as kind of protected class of free speech. And now that the world is witnessing the obliteration of the supreme leader and his caliphate in motion, they are petrified that the same people in their communities that have never abandoned their true false idol, whom still hold dear to the death cult practices as celebrated and elevated by the supreme leader (And others), they are silent and do nothing…
in fact, most of “them” condemn these actions from the US, because it makes them feel safer.
They are going to find out soon, the the death cult doesn’t care about what they do. that they are unbelievers makes them targets, describes them as sub human and are to be murdered.
it’s insane to think my OWN COUNTRY here in the USA has also in many ways made this same mistake.
I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT MUSLIMS. I am talking ISLAMISTS. There is a difference. Yet, no distinction seems to have been noticed when inviting these people inside our borders. We will regret that decision for a long long time.
incompatible…cannot be adapted to normal morals and rules of law.
be prepared. its going to get nuts soon.
God Bless America
Its been nuts, for along time.
Islamism is the mirror image of Conmunism,;
One supplants the church (mosque/synagogue) WITH the State, the other supplants the church (mosque/synagogue) in lieu OF the state.
A nd in both cases its a CON, the true purpose of which is for a relatively small group of individuals at the top to have all power and to exploit to remain in power.
Nailed it for me. Worldwide caliphate is their goal. Submit or die. This has to made apparent repeatedly and mashed whenever possible.
The people of NYC better understand that before the next election for Mayor!
During the Iran/Iraq war, they recruited child soldiers, and those too weak to carry a rifle, they used thrm to clear mine fields, by marching them into them.
Thats what the mullahs are.
Some are saying Trump was justified and booya…!!!
Others are saying it was a big mistake…
Both can be true…
Nah. JMH(paranoid)AO:
Seems like all the other powers on the map are in cahoots.
Edit: not a mistake. Reconing. Karma.
” justified and booya…!!!”
“big mistake…”
“Both can be true…”
It is.
No, it really isn’t.
The ones saying it was a big mistake are the exact same people who think doing the same thing over and over again (as has been the case for decades) will eventually work, proving their insanity.
They have got this.
God has got this.
Can you imagine, he had 4 years OJT as POTUS,
Got screwed on the re-election, but had already laid the foundation,
Now has a short sched to straighten out this…
The ones saying it was a mistake want forever diplomacy while Iran finally
get the bomb.. Seriously how long are we suppose to give diplomacy a chance
a month, a year, forever? All the Dems have done is Obama gave them pallets
of cash.. Joe unfroze thier assets… Trump bombed them..
Hopefully you’re right this time, Miss Lindsey.
You’re constantly trashing others for NOT wanting to do the same thing that has been done over and over with horrible outcomes, when in actuality it’s YOU who is expecting different results after doing the same thing over and over…. How did the first six of those “seven wars in five years” that General Wesley Clark talked about turn out? Unmitigated disasters, each and every one.
So, how should the people who you call “insane” expect war number seven to turn out?
Again, hopefully you’re right this time.
and both can be wrong as well.
sophistry accomplishes little in a time of war.
and make no mistake we are at war.
no fence straddling permitted.
different views, yes, encouraged…but at the end of the day, you either agree with this President or you do not.
God Bless America
I favor the strikes for both security reasons and accountability. They have been positioned to be surgical in nature.
What sort of war do you envision unfolding?
Iran still possesses a considerable military force. I do not expect them to stand down. Israel will likely continue to engage as many targets as they can to reduce the threat and to leverage that force for some sort of negotiations. But I have serious doubts that Iran will consider at this point in time engagement with any kind of negotiations. They got their asses whooped. It’s a problem for the military leadership as they are seen as weak, and with the continued exodus of key “religious” figures, that means the military will likely attempt to step in and either perform some kind of coup to take power directly or to defraud elections to install one of their own. Again, there are some dynamics in Iran about the Islamic state/caliphate that the military still holds true towards. This presents a continued threat and danger to Israel. Externally and indirectly, it would not surprise me that terror groups become more active in the region and that will be challenging particularly to nation states that have invited “refugees” into their countries. There is likely a sizable contingent of radicals in nearly every EU state that are not pleased with the bombing of Iran. It must be humiliating and will probably give rise to some Islamic criminal to do what they do. I also believe that the houthis, while stunted, will continue to send missiles and rockets and other weapons toward our fleet in the strait. It’s likely the entire area will become one big hot mess.
Additionally, I am watching to see the impact on oil production in Iran. My understanding is that Israel has put some of their production at a standstill. This also creates another dynamic as Iran will now be facing a serious and not short term economic shock. This may give china and others the inclination to help supply Iran with weapons and to retaliate and to help them recover. This would invite another kind of threat that places Iran in a position such that they would refuse a cease fire and/or negotiated settlement because they would have the ability to restructure. It really depends on how much Israel wants to step things up and how much other interests want Iranian oil to flow again. Complex.
As far as the US continued involvement, the big question: I think we have accomplished the primary mission and henceforth, the US will continue to provide military weapons, intelligence and resources to Israel, but not become directly involved in war fighting. I just don’t believe President Trump has this on his agenda to get us involved beyond neutralizing those nuclear facilities. HOWEVER, within hours after the bombs obliterated these targets, Iran public television broadcast officials and top military leadership who have stated that there will be a response toward the US for this “unprovoked attack”. I will presume the only means of fulfilling those threats will be attempts to target American citizens in the region or again proxy terror attacks against our bases and the fleet that is operating the straits. Should this happen, I believe President Trump will respond accordingly. He isn’t going to tolerate Iran placing our troops in harms way or killing civilians. The fact is that President Trump was very precise in these bombing sorties and no Iranian civilian lives were lost. That was a very important outcome and I am certain by design. Taking away nuclear capability is one thing. it’s an entirely different matter, killing civilians even if coincidental/collaterally. It makes me feel very confident that these plans were well developed and executed with brilliant military precision to perform a specific mission that would not get us embroiled in direct conflict. But this is Iran, the biggest sponsor of terrorism. We will have to deal with some kind of response. They promised it would happen. I trust President Trump will exercise the utmost excercise and use of the military to respond to that swiftly and unambiguously. They know he will, considering in his first term, he targeted key military leaders who are linked to directly supporting, training and supplying terror groups in the region. I think it was two key figures. So, they know he isn’t obama or Joe blow. It might just be a different story now, that they understand this President is a danger a grave danger to anyone in leadership there if they temp fate.
Long term, I see the caliphate sidelined and contained. Which is also a good thing.
Longer term, I would like to see normalized relations between Israel and Iran and also the US. But this is not very realistic. Longer term, I think the world will have to deal with a persistently dangerous military Islamic state that is Iran.
Hopefully, the next administration continues to put pressure on Iran that limits its capability to do great damage to Israel and reduces its ability to supply terror groups in the region. I think those two goals will have to be a long term commitment similar to how we deal with illegal migrants in this country. It just isn’t realistic to expect to get them all out in 4 years. In the same reality, expecting Iran to change its spots in 4 years, or even 10 is unlikely. it will take pressure and negotiations and agreements.
before this President ends his term, I would like to see him achieve what has never really happened…that Iran signs an agreement to the non nuclear proliferation treaty 2.0. And stop this madness trying to build nukes.
I think that will be a good thing for the world and a good thing for Iran.
God Bless America

Note to the blue states, cities and their politicians.
The National Guard and Tom Holman are coming.
I’d suggest you get with the program and help your fellow Americans arrest and deport any and all illegals.
As we face the dangerous Iranian sleeper cells, patience is wearing thin with your treasonous, anti-American actions.
Continue with them and you will be considered a “clear and present danger” to America and Americans with the resulting charges and arrest to follow.
You have been warned.
MAGA / America First isn’t just our motto, it is our duty!
Antifa probably shooting fireworks at federal officers in Portland tonight. Better stop playing around with this nonsense. Should be priority one for Kash and Bongino. If our own cities don’t belong to us, why are we bothering to bomb other countries’?
The CIA (ie. Deep State) was responsible for deposing the Shah of Iran and installing the bloody shia regime in Tehran.
In the decades since, whenever the Deep State needed a distraction, it called Tehran, who then called up the PLO and Arafat (later Hamas), or Hezbollah, and told them to attack Israel. Suddenly…..CRISIS!
For decades, this ploy was used by the Deep State whenever they needed a distraction or wanted to suck up media oxygen from some other issue.
The elimination of Hamas, Hezbollah, and their sponsor….the regime controlling Iran…..removes a major chess piece from the Deep State’s (CIA’s) side of the chess board.
President Trump has been clear eyed about this since Term #1.
Anyone who cannot see this does not understand ME realities or what POTUS has been doing since 2016.
As he might say…
Thank you for your attention to this important matter.
By the way, I might also add that today has been foreseen for YEARS by the Deep State, which is why that same Deep State has been working to remove Netanyahu from office ever since 2020 in order to prevent today from happening.
President Trump was clear eyed about this for more than 20 years.
At least he’s been speaking out about it for many decades.
Remembering a CIA Coup in Iran That Never Was
Mohammed Mossadegh was not a democrat or democratically elected, nor was he toppled by nefarious foreigners
https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/israel-middle-east/articles/cia-coup-in-iran-that-never-was-mossadegh
Agree….there’s been a lot of “look squirrel!” distractions. Consider what the liberal media is NOT covering right now. And it didn’t take any time at all for the loony liberals, like AOC, or the RINOS, like Massie, to immediately start the unconstitutional nonsense or impeachment diatribes. And, guess how the media will respond to that….24/7 coverage. More distractions from the riots, Antifa resurgence , Biden scandals, anti-semitism activity, or the rot and corruption being uncovered daily within the government agencies and judicial branches. …the things Democrats do not want the American public to talk about.
One of the scummiest members of the senate starts spewing…
Would those be the same “negotiations” with people of bad faith that haven’t worked out a single time in over 50 years?
So we really need to review the history?
Asking for a friend.
The scum don’t review history; they re-write it.
However, for the benefit of the whiners and trolls, and perhaps those among us too young to remember, might it be beneficial to lay out the ugly facts of this murderous Islamic regime?

“Negotiations”
Sure, if you can call the result in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Yemen, Syria, Iran, “negotiations”.
Diplomacy by “other means” would be more a more apt dicription.
You are entirely wrong to lump President Trump in with Bush and Obama, just as you are entirely wrong to claim Trump has now become Israel’s puppet.
But the (now inarguable) fact that you lump POTUS 47 in with those two POS says everything about you, most in particular all you clearly do not understand.
“You are entirely wrong to lump President Trump in with Bush and Obama”
Those are entirely your words, not mine.
My opinion , that it was a mistake. Doesn’t mean everyone who thinks so is anti-Trump.
Voted for him thrice. If he ran again tomorrow, I would do so again. Your clumsy, beetle-headed effort to imply the opposite, notwithstanding.
Rather than rabidly lashing at anyone saying it was a mistake, try and understand why they think so
No one is “rabidly lashing out”. And I know why you think it’s a mistake.
Because you are afraid. And, you lack faith in the man you claim to support.
Pretty simple, really.
Guess what? It’s probably gonna get a LOT worse before it starts to get better. Sundance has been warning of this for over a year now, which you would know if you are who you claim to be.
Time to cowboy up, not whine and cry.
Me? I grew up in an age where real men kept their doubts to themselves, knowing how easily fear and doubt spread, undermining a damn fine cause.
You don’t appear to have grown up in that old school.
“Me? I grew up in an age where real men kept their doubts to themselves, knowing how easily fear and doubt spread, undermining a damn fine cause.”
Sounds like lines from a low budget movie…
”know if you are who you claim to be.”
Tell me who I claim to be? Seeing as I haven’t claimed to be anything beyond being America First, and supporting PDJT for the last decade. My record speaks for itself. If I made any anti-Trump comments over the years, by all means produce them.
Btw how long have you been posting here?
“You don’t appear to have grown up in that old school.”
Enlisted 8 years, on the circuit for 5. Last job contract finished in 15, at a JDF in a foreign country, career change since… Been around the block a few times buddy, how about you?
Instead of Team MAGA going at each other over “forever wars”, why don’t we consider the value inherent in decimating the moving parts tbat create them?
Tangentially, I wonder what John Brennan, Valerie Jarrett, and Barack Obama are doing tonight?
“I wonder what John Brennan, Valerie Jarrett, and Barack Obama are doing tonight?”
Unfortunately, not in pre-trial detention, talking to their lawyers, and trying to negotiate a plea deal…
Nice reply…..very nice.
Referring to “Landslide24’s “… clumsy, beetle-headed effort ….” and then admonishing them for ” … rapidly lashing at anyone saying it was a mistake ….” in consecutive paragraphs takes a special kind of chutzpah.
Do you know what takes real chutzpah?
Ignoring the substance of the repartee, and then injecting yourself at the tail end of the conversation, because you have an axe to grind.
Yes. The comment – “He has also become the weapon of a foreign country.”
…implies that our POTUS is not in control of his own decisions.
Nothing could be further from the truth.
We all get what the ‘history’ is.
Counting their Benjamins.
The same “intelligence” that Tulsi was given?
If this were true, it would have been front and center, with evidence, in the NYT.
The POS is running for president – and losing said run.
And this guy is credible????
Gosh, wonder how he was “briefed” and by whom? Interesting he doesn’t document that.
Chris Murphy is a MORON, afflicted with a terminal case of TDS.
Wonder if he was in on the “Dollars for the Mullahs” grift?
I keep seeing the keyword “mistake” all over the places I travel.
Nope. No mistake. GOD is taking back his country, and perhaps his world…….one…..TRUMP…breath at a time.
Hamas was put in power by the Zionist Jews. Same for ISIS and the Taliban. These are reasons to invade. Americans are so stupid. They watch movies created by Zionists to make them believe they are on the good team. We are the enemy.
No, we aren’t the enemy.
The Deep State you are talking about is.
I just hope you’re not out on the highway driving a car. It’s scary enough already without some folks mistaking a 5 sided Chrysler star with something similar.

It is one of the greatest crimes against the American public that people have yet to fully realize. The great theft of wealth from the middle and lower class.
It indentured people and caused the greatest harm to small business.

Whatever else is said, one has to admit they did an absolutely glorious job of it. Very impressive.
I think I understand her comment now about the “waning crescent” moon.
It’s not about the moon. It’s about the “Shia Crescent”.
Not a waning crescent as much it is that the “Crescent” is waning.
Victor Davis Hanson mentions the “Shia Crescent” at the 3-6 minute mark of his podcast below. He also spells out this is/will be more of a “Jacksonian” action. Not a neo-con forever war situation but Jacksonian “Don’t tread on me” action. The podcast is from a few days ago so it was before last night’s actions.
It’s three or so minutes to give an understanding of the Big Picture here. It’s not the start of another “forever war”. VDH spells it out so clearly and concisely.
As far as “No better friend, no worse enemy”, the smart people in that region welcomed him as a friend in his recent visit. They knew.
The smart people here in the U.S. know there is no better friend to the American citizens than our current Commander in Chief.
He walked away from the 2020 election which was stolen by the domestic enemies. He did that on behalf of the American citizens. The domestic enemies exposed themselves and self-imploded. He saved the Republic in the process. He saved it for the American citizens. The Republic is being returned to those American citizens right now.

Some here worry about starting a war. We have already been at war for some time.
To them I say, “Wake up Sweetheart!”
We have already been at war with enemies both foreign and domestic.
“Our movement is about replacing a failed and totally corrupt political establishment with a new government controlled by you, the American people.” – President Donald J. Trump
So Israel started the war knowing they couldn’t accomplish their de-nuking objectives without the U.S. Think about it. Why would anyone do such a thing while depending on someone else to actually accomplish it? They should have taken responsibility for achieving their objectives. Then I could be congratulatory and admire them for solving the problem.
The U.S. was deliberately manipulated and used by another country as a component in their war plans to accomplish their objectives. Doesn’t seem like America First, more like America led around on a leash. Would the U.S. have attacked Iran without Israel creating the situation? No.
I care about Israel about as much as say the Netherlands, Congo, Canada, or Panama in that I wish them well, fascinating history and determination in transforming the desert, too bad about their local problems, but their problems are not anyone else’s problems. Using our country as a tool in their war raises hackles.
Being readily manipulated into war via lack of self-determination, with the ends-justify-the-means as the excuse (because that’s what it is), is certainly NOT “America First”.
… and Christians who think they are participating in God’s Will don’t seem to be aware that Israel (the modern country) is a liberal, secular state based around ethnic identity and a sense of shared history, not the God of Abraham.
If the state of Israel ceases to exist, the people of Israel scattered around the world will remain, voting hard left as always, and the world will carry on with nary a blip because nations come and go as they always have.
Meanwhile they will f goats in Bethlehem.
There are big differences between Jewish sects but I see you’re stereotyping all Jews as Hollywood/Protocol types.
Think more. We weren’t manipulated. We just needed the right reason.
learn the lesson
all government tends to be corrupt in many areas
not defending Israel (I am somewhat annoyed with them right now)
but, perhaps their intel was bad
it certainly was on June (?) 7th
regardless, bottom line is that radical mullahs cannot have nuclear bomb capabilities
Oct 7 over 40 Americans killed, many American hostages mostly dead, and no online reports of American wounded, raped, or tortured. Funded by Iran thanks to JoeBama. Those in control in Iran need to go – not for Israel– but for Americans. Not to mention all prior proxy massacres they orchestrated.
Relative of Ariane Tabatabai-Iran’s spy in the Pentagon?
Israel took him out
He was a nuclear scientist
“Iranian nuclear scientist Isar Tabatabai-Qamsheh killed in strike
In addition, weekend strikes on Iranian territory by Israel have killed a nuclear scientist and a number of Iranian Air Defense and IRGC personnel, according to reports.
Iranian nuclear scientist Isar Tabatabai-Qamsheh and his wife were killed in an Israeli strike on Saturday, Mehr News Agency reported.
There were also 15 Iranian Air Defense officers and soldiers killed in Israeli airstrikes, according to a report by Iranian state media Nournews. These include two brigadier-generals, five colonels, three first-lieutenants, one third-lieutenant, and four conscripts.

Israel, US war-gamed airstrikes on Iran during Biden admin. – report
The exercise was unprecedented as it war-gamed offensive actions against Iranian nuclear capabilities for the first time, the source informed ABC.
https://www.jpost.com/middle-east/iran-news/article-858500
Snip:
Israel and the US practiced conducting airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities during the Biden administration, an Israeli source with direct knowledge of the matter confirmed to ABC News on Sunday morning.
The exercise was unprecedented as it war-gamed offensive actions against Iranian nuclear capabilities for the first time, the source informed ABC.
While the practiced and war-gamed scenario was planned in cooperation with former president Joe Biden’s administration, “we did not think a year ago that this would happen now,” the source commented.
Well, here we are again.
Our choices (including right here, where we allegedly have adult conversations) seem to be:
This is the start of WWIII, the murderous mullahs are just “misunderstood”, and we are being bullies just to be Bibi’s bitch
or
This is 100% justified, Iran had it coming, President Trump is the savior of the world, and Bibi is a saint.
Anybody who comes down outside one of these two extremes is attacked as a heretic by the opposite side.
I’d suggest a little more nuance.
Maybe Iran DID have it coming. Maybe the mullas DO reign over a murderous, totalitarian hellhole. Maybe Bibi IS a manipulative sociopath.
All can be true at the same time
I’ve seen allegations that “ Bibi IS a manipulative sociopath”. I’ve not seen evidence that he is. That’s not an endorsement of our long entanglement with Israel. Just my assessment of the man.
That, the transgressions of Iran, and the entanglement of US policy with Israel are all conversations that should be fair game here.
“Bibi IS a manipulative sociopath”
A manipulative sociopath will always change his story to fit the current situation. The best example being leaders of the Democrats. Bibi message has been consistent over a long period of time regarding Iran’s nuclear program –over 20 years.
How else would he keep the American dollars flowing?
yes
its okay to question motives
what we do know is that President Trump had no political agenda
others? well, yeah
This is really what its all about. This here.
We are living in prophetic times. The events of Ezekiel 38 have very likely just become much closer on the timeline.
some update/reporting on radioactive contamination
https://www.iaea.org/newscenter/pressreleases/update-on-developments-in-iran-3
https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/what-are-nuclear-contamination-risks-attacks-iran-2025-06-22/
“For Gulf states, the impact of any strike on Bushehr would be worsened by the potential contamination of Gulf waters, jeopardising a critical source of desalinated potable water.
The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) is on high alert to monitor for any possible environmental contamination after the attacks, said a source with knowledge of the matter. There have been no signs of radiological contamination so far, the source said, adding that the GCC had emergency plans in place in case of a threat to water and food security in the Gulf.”
summary: thus far, it would appear radioactive contamination is limited to site only locations, with the emphasis being placed more so on chemical releases, that could potentially be a problem. But even that has not been observed.

https://www.cfr.org/backgrounder/what-iran-nuclear-deal
God Bless America
“For Gulf states, the impact of any strike on Bushehr would be worsened by the potential contamination of Gulf waters, jeopardising a critical source of desalinated potable water.”
Not sure this area has received strikes, or will be struck. Last I read about it was that the Russians have two nuclear construction projects going on there., and that they have agreements with Israel and the US, to not be targeted. Don’t know if the agreement changed over the last few hours though…
As for contamination, if nuclear material is located deep under concrete and earth it may have reduced or no signature. Soil is a great insulator. There may be some catastrophic damage to their nuclear infrastructure, but we’ll only really know later.. seeing how the Iranians react around bombed areas will also be telling. That’s where human intel becomes important.

you came into this world, naked and just born. You grew up and you will die!
But how YOU live your life on Earth, and what type of Universe you were told existed, was taught to you by humans older then YOU.
You have human senses, you have SOUL senses, and you have SPIRIT senses. GOD created you, no matter what your human parents told YOU!
So, HUMAN, what are YOU going to do? Educate yourself, …are YOU going to PRAY …to GOD … and ASK GOD to reveal himself to YOU? or just “fit into this earth and try NOT TO DIE? And live comfortably.
It is up to YOU, and only YOU, … after you live here and die here, you will be examined … in a LOVING and WISE way! GOD will decide where you need to go, and learn the lessons you need to learn.
But this LIFE you are living here, who are you asking to teach YOU, GOD or MAMMON! You will be given all the lifetimes you need to FINALLY make the RIGHT CHOICE. GOD is Patient! GOD LOVES YOU! Young child of GOD.
No matter what you call ME, … I don’t care … I LOVE YOU! One day you will be very, very, grateful, that I LOVE YOU! Nothing more for me to say! Until you HEAR MY VOICE IN YOU, and then follow it!
Who is the “ME” in your last paragraph? It is unclear whether you are referring to God or to yourself.
Nope, you get one lifetime, NOT many. God says in His Word that He gave every person the innate knowledge of Himself, so there is no excuse for choosing Satan over God Almighty.

Just about 6am here. 75 degrees outside and the sun is just lighting up the tops of the trees. Looks a little breezy out there. When I’m done with this 1st cup of coffee I’ll head out on a bike ride. I’m more concerned about the people walking their dogs without a leash than I am about the Presidents decisions. He has a history of doing whats best for the US.

“If two people agree on everything, one of them isn’t necessary”- Dr. Ben Carson

All the time I’ve come here I’ve never seen so many people I think I could stand to smoke a brisket with at a competition bbq suddenly turn on one another such in a dismissive and abrasive fashion over something as contestable as this.
I Pray this maneuver by President Trump has fewer side effects than I am anticipating.
So the only option apart from yours is Fox News mind warp thinking?
What if the side effects are overwhelmingly positive?
We were on the verge of Nuclear Armageddon prior to this. Our Spooks and NATO have had President Putins World Class patience on a torture test.
Just when we start making headway unraveling that nightmare we bomb the Russians ally because BiBi claims they are really building a bomb “this time” unlike all the other “times” for the last 3 decades. (I will bet my eye teeth the Iranians have had a mountainside full of nukes for a while now)
BiBis Generals stood down on October 7 for Hamass (Mossad created, like we created Al Queda) to rape and commit infanticide all to justify Military action. He also attacked Iran and forgot to reload or reboot the Iron Dome.
The International Bankster Cartel Death Cult already has us primed for economic collapse and Socialist Unrest.
President Trump’s plans for our Economic Renaissance will not work if the oil market takes any more of a beating.
Interest rates HAVE TO COME DOWN for the decent parts of the BBB to function.
India and Pakistan are ready to nuke each other. Pakistan is backing Iran. So are Russia and Turkey. China gets massive amounts of oil from Iran via a newly discovered railway that Biden forgot to take care of.
China flew a bunch of Military heavy transport aircraft under radar into Iran all last week.

Hello fellow heretic!
If you were paying attention during the scamdemic, did you hear about Mass Formation Psychosis, as formulated by Mattias Desmet?
Guess you will find a few of his podcasts interviews explaining the subject on Rumble. Worth comparing that to what you see here.
As for side effects, The Duran did a stream discussing this a few hours ago.
why is islamism dangerous?
first a few things to separate:
being a Muslim is NOT the same as islamism.
one is a faithful individual follower of a religion. (a religion that I do not support and do believe is based on pure crap, but a religion that does exists and is recognized and practiced my millions (billions?) around the world. The muslim is not inherently a dangerous or vile person.
the other, islamism, is a political state that seeks to establish UNDEMOCRATIC DEATH CULT THEOCRACY THAT HAS INTENTIONS TO FORM A CALIPHATE.
Most people cannot differentiate between the two ideas, muslim and islamism, because islamism takes its agenda from a radical aspect of the Muslim faith. The point of this is not to attempt to split hairs but to understand these things when we talk about what the US is attacking…WHY the threat is very real. The state of Iran is an Islamic death cult organization. It is a death cult theocracy. Many Iranian people do NOT recognize this authority, because they do not practice these horrors. But they are not inclined to speak out because the same Islamic state exercise murderous conditions, torture, rape and disenfranchisement to anyone that openly opposes it.
So when we talk about why go to war with Iran and what is the value of delimited the nuclear threat and reducing the Iranian military capacity, it is because the supreme leader of Iran IS the commander in chief, has insisted countless times as well as all of the religious immams in that islamic state that un believers are to be murdered. They do not consider you to be a human being, if you do not obey the Islamic state. This should not be suprising to understand and yet, time and time again, I continue to listen to people here at CTH and in fairness across a wide spectrum of friends and associates they do not understand the differences. and it is very important TO understand these differences.
we are NOT at war with Muslims..or their faith. I would personally prefer they come to Jesus, yes, but that is a choice they make. We ARE AT WAR WITH AN DEATH CULT ISLAMIC STATE that does NOT consider it crime at all to murder YOU the unbeliever, because by LAW and the extreme radical ideas they actually believe, you are in fact not human at all.
most Iranians DO NOT BELIEVE this to be true.
again, this war is about removing from power and denying power to a very dangerous islamic state, led by murderers, rapists, and absolutely insane people who have declared intentions to use nuclear weapons and to advance toward the next caliphate. they are driven in my opinion, by a satanic influence….this Islamic radical state cannot possibly be allowed to exist in a free and safe world.
it is JUST THAT SIMPLE.
using military forces therefore is justified. We just saved a huge numbers of lives, made the world safety, and have given Muslims in Iran specifically an opportunity to rejoin the world and experience a free society that isn’t compelled by a evil central state to murder everyone that does not obey its wicked ways.
furthermore, the rest of the world watches, specifically Muslims, who knows have more reasons to shake away from the extremism. it’s form of opportunity and also a clear warning of deterrence.
do not build islamism. it will be destroyed because it cannot be allowed to work!
God Bless America
God Bless America
https://philosproject.org/the-crucial-difference-between-islam-and-islamism/
Good points, but keep in mind that all true religions are based on faith and not all Muslims “believe” on their own accord.
Islam compels compliance using intimidation and the threat of death, so there is no actual faith at all involved in Mohammedanism.
Islam is a cult, not a religion.
Theocracy at its best./sarc
Funny how the people of the world are anti Christian and anti Catholic though….
An very evil cult.
And if you don’t join that cult they will kill you!!!! They are doing that in Africa, muslims are killing Christians!!!
An oppressive retrograde socio – political system cloaked in a religious patina.
Where I live, most if not all, have not spent anytime in meditating on the concepts you state let alone trying to understand the politics of it. Like the sheep, they need their own shepherd (DNC and union leadership) to guide their thinking.
The Quran tells Muslims to kill the Jews and kill the unbeliever.
And to “beat the women…lightly”….
not too long ago in our own history
men could beat their wives/girlfriends
and the law enforcement/judicial system
would do nothing about it
Yes it’s mostly peaceful beatings/s
In March 1786, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams went to London to negotiate with Tripoli’s envoy, ambassador Sidi Haji Abdrahaman (or Sidi Haji Abdul Rahman Adja). When they enquired “concerning the ground of the pretensions to make war upon nations who had done them no injury”, the ambassador replied:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Barbary_War
I stand corrected for just what you have described. I often mixed “muslim” with “Islamist”. Thanks for pointing out the difference.
Taqiyya is the creed of all Muslims. Some Muslims will just hold you down while the Islamists slit your throat. It is unwise to try and divide the Mussies like that. Their goal is the same, conquer the whole world.
Concerning Iran, I compare the failure of diplomacy to the similar failure with The Barbary Pirates, to whom the new U.S. government was in fact paying tribute in the 1790’s to not attack U.S. merchants.
The U.S. Marine Corps Hymn has the famous line “…to the shores of Tripoli.”
In 1805, after diplomacy and treaties had failed to stop Islamic-state-supported piracy of Moslem pirates, President Thomas Jefferson sent in the U.S. Marines “to the shores of Tripoli” and successfully stopped the forces of a pirate-pasha named Karamanli.
As was – and is – typical of dealing with immoral states, another war was necessary later under President James Madison in 1815, a conflict whose end included treaties negotiated by Commander Stephen Decatur.
The Moslem pirates – being pirates – did not stop attacking merchants of other countries until the French conquered all of Algeria in the 1830’s.
Talking and treaties and tribute all failed until a conclusive conquest occurred.
As for “tribute” in modern times in dealing with Iran, we recall the “pallets of cash” sent by Brrroke MAObama in his term.
The Iranian Jihadist Theocracy is parallel to the Barbary Pirates: they will continue to support international Islamic terrorism and dabble in Atomic* Bombs until crushed completely.
Whether the bombing of their atomic warfare centers will have crushed the government remains to be seen, i.e. is this 1805, 1815, or 1830?
President TRUMP is right and sane people would agree that fanatics** should not be allowed to develop and attain atomic bombs.
* I use “atomic” and not “nuclear” to be specific: “nuclear” implies that a Hydrogen (i.e. fusion) Bomb is involved in Iran, which I highly doubt, although some dictionaries allow “nuclear” to cover both fission (“atomic”) and fusion bombs.
** The mentally ill are able to act normal at times, but the problem is precisely that: any normal appearance is an act! At heart they are still mentally ill. It is a gray area often inhabited by dictators: people almost instinctively look at the mass-murdering tyrants throughout history and say “Oh, they must have been insane!”
Well, no, not quite. People disconnected from reality cannot come to power over thousands of warriors or millions of sane people. The mass-murdering tyrants of world history were certainly abnormal mentally, but were they insane?
No, the term for fusion bombs is “thermonuclear”. Fission bombs are still nuclear.
As I explained, some dictionaries agree, others do not. As I explained, in the comments above I was using “atomic” to distinguish specifically between an atomic-fission bomb versus a hydrogen-thermonuclear fusion bomb.
Allow me to emphasize the “rhyming” nature of the nearly 50-year long problem of Iran with the 40-year long problem with the North African coast in the 1790’s-1830’s.
Talking and tribute and treaties all failed over that 40-year period: only total conquest stopped the piracy.
The third stanza of the Marine Corps hymn is:
“Here’s health to you and to our Corps Which we are proud to serve; In many a strife we’ve fought for life And never lost our nerve; If the Army and the Navy Ever look on Heaven’s scenes; They will find the streets are guarded By United States Marines”.
Well, hearing about Bernie and Chuckie…Hakeem and all their self righteous bloviating for Congress a do nothing Congress…
Leadership involves making or doing something that is an unpopular but good thing to do if thinking forward.
There is a group who have remained fairly quiet with the exception of one, that full squad….you know the one….
Am not hearing the mantra of:
“Some people did something”….
When that dumbass, Jimma “the peanut” Carter allowed the Shah of Iran to be deposed and the French flew the weird beard Ayatollah Khomeini back into Iran, the Middle East has been a rolling shitshow ever since. “The die is cast”
I believe in Love & Peace, however allowing maniacs to have a nuclear bomb, is well, stupid.
It’s right up there with Madeline Albright and Bill “the slut” Clinton allowing Loral Space to give computers to China with the technology so their ICBM’s can reenter earth’s atmosphere to hit their target. This because “it’s not fair that we’re the only superpower”.
I trust President Trump…completely.
Gob Bless America!
Ultra-MAGA!
Note to CTH: When the trolls show up you know you’re over the target, pun intended. Their intention is to sow derision and break people away from President Trump. The best policy is DFTT Don’t Feed the Troll, but if you must toy with a Trotsky, do it with good cheer, they will get pissed and that’s great fun.
Or to point out that the regime change you describe is what got us into this mess. Self awareness is not your strength.
Folks are not paying attention. If it’s this bad inside the Treehouse, imagine what is going on in the wider MAGAsphere..
I read a tweet that said:
“…I’d suggest the people who were tricked the past 3 times will be tricked again because this is cognitively easier to process.”
X is skewed younger than CTH and there is a lot of “this is not what I voted for” sentiment and disgust being expressed but it’s best to see it for yourself than rely on hearsay.
Thanks for the history lesson I forgot about France returning the fanatical, lunatic Ayatollah Khomeini to Iran and setting the Middle East on fire!!!
Yeah I almost forgot about that.
I wonder if he was working in France’s no 1 industry- white surrender flag production – before returning to Iran?
Yes, GOD bless America!
What did they know about Iran’s nuclear program and was it real or lies we may never know. What we do know is what we did and we can’t change that.
We also know that crazy people like mullahs and ayatollahs must never get nukes.
That being said, can we now finally get back to saving our own country and start going after and arresting those within our own government who have stolen our money and created a country I barely recognize.
We apparently “saved” Israel and the world, when do we start saving the USA. The is what I voted for and I am waiting now impatiently!! We need to get that started before the next “crisis” takes the focus away from what needs to be done.
We now return to our regularly scheduled deportations…

Oh heck no. You think Mark Kevin wants to stop at bombing some bunkers. On to phase 2.
Enriching uranium beyond 20% purity had NOTHING to do with using it for power plants 😎
It is 100% certain that Iran was seeking enriched uranium for weaponized purposes. Only reason.
They were spending billions to do this. Why?
To get the Bomb. No other reason.
That is correct. Most conventional reactors use fuel that is enriched to no more than 5%.
There are some newer smaller reactor designs that can use fuel up to 20% enrichment, but this is not typical.
Iran was reported to be at 60% by the IAEA, a group that has never been particularly tough on Iran
fact patterns. no other nation that enriches uranium for “peaceful” purposes, such as for medical purposes or for industrial/science use, BUILDS HARDENED MEGA STRUCTURES DEEP INTO MOUNTAINS to protect their labs. NO ONE!
second, Iran in 2018 refused the agreement it had signed “the non nuclear proliferation agreement”.
third, this would not be the first time that Iran has LIED about its nuclear weapons programs. it was caught three times before and in two of those instances it was official inspectors who documented a much higher plutonium and U234 enrichment stock. That isn’t industrial production for peaceful purposes.
fourth, take their word for it. NUMEROUS TIMES THE SUPREME LEADER AND MULTIPLE MILITARY LEADERS have stated publicly they intend to build nuclear weapons and in most of those same public statement they include unambiguous threats toward israel, europe and the United States.
fifth….based on open source, Iran buys most of its raw uranium from Russia, But the quantity is far more than what is needed for nuclear energy fuel rod production. And they have been caught numerous times lying about how much U they have bought. Inspectors could not find the material in facilities that were designed to nuclear reactor fuel production. Where do you suppose the additional U went?
sixth….the type of heavy water facility was built specifically to enrich U234 and PU. There is a significant different in how a heavy water facilities is designed and the one they designed is dual purpose. this violated the non nuclear proliferation agreement that they have signed and then lied about to conceal purpose.
seventh…there are 4 different classes of missiles that Iran developed that and it was not coincidental these missiles had capabilities to carry nuclear weapons. Again, this violated the Non Nuclear Proliferation Agreement that they signed. And it was the reason why President Trump in his first term back off and away from that agreement. He understood what those missiles are capable of …it meant that Iran had already developed a vehicle to deliver a nuke to a range that would threaten not just Israel, but also very critical strategic areas where the US operates in the region.
that’s how we know. and that’s just the unclassified stuff.
now to be fair, one of the reasons why you might not have read any of this, is because the media in the United States HATES PRESIDENT TRUMP. understand the insanity of what has evolved in the US. This is the same media that would echo the Russia russia threat that without question has been a very dangerous and false allegation against a nuclear nation, that otherwise should be a good friend and trading partner with the US. So they don’t write about these things…because they hate President Trump. They cannot ever write anything that would put him in a favorable light.
but all of these things are true. the “press” is also lazy slacked jawed overpaid morons.
So we here at CTH, we generally have a pretty good record of knowing things…finding things out, reporting them.
it’s what we do.
God Bless America
Can’t remember which verse it was, or is, in their ‘good book’, but the followers of Mohammedism are instructed to lie and hide their true intents when dealing with their infidels.
So am tickled we finally have a Commander in Chief in President Trump who a) gave those practitioners a timeline, and then b) actually stuck to it.
All previous leaders of our nation continued to fall for the lame excuses (lies) used by that regime for not complying with one thing or another, which simply allowed them to continually adding the time those practitioners needed to build their underground b omb factories.
Thank you for this information on the various classes of armaments, and the ra diation shield info; completely not my world so having this helps to put so much more into perspective.
morning Treepers………..be well
Good morning…so peaceful…
Morning bjorkdream
A lovely spot. I wouldn’t mind being there right now.
Thank you.
I hope your day goes well.
God bless you.
Canoe believe it?
Thanks for the visual respite, bjorkdream.
Gave us a break from the first thread squabbling!
All the Democrats are now screaming to impeach Trump for bombing Iran’s nuclear facilities. Where were they when Obama bombed Libya? No Democrat or Republican was talking about impeaching Obummer.
In March 2011, President Obama authorized military intervention in Libya, which included airstrikes aimed at protecting civilians during the civil unrest against dictator Muammar Gaddafi. This intervention ultimately led to Gaddafi’s overthrow but resulted in ongoing chaos and conflict in Libya.
Obama declared: “We knew that if we waited one more day, Benghazi—a city nearly the size of Charlotte—could suffer a massacre that would have reverberated across the region and stained the conscience of the world.” In the Rose Garden speech after Gadhafi ’s death, Obama noted, “Without putting a single U.S. service member on the ground, we achieved our objectives.” – politico
And we all know about the Obama Administration’s failures and Hillary’s lies in Benghazi.
Great point, Jake….needs to be asked repeatedly to the rabid impeachment liberals until they shut up.
They really are RABID. The squad, Jasmine Crockett and THE VIEW participants as well. All looney
ladies.females.women. buffoons?Obama and Biden sent the fanatical Mullahs billions of American dollars on pallets used for terrorism and for their nuclear bomb program! President Trump sent them bombs to end both! The difference couldn’t be more stark! The whole world is now safer knowing the Iranian nuclear bomb program has been terminated with prejudice! Thank you President Trump and Godspeed!!! JMO
Been coming to this site for years. It WAS a great site to avoid all the mainstream war mongering and propaganda. It now appears this site has become infiltrated by 8200. I’ve never seen a time where the Treehouse regulars have been supplanted with pro-WW3 proponents. I certainly didn’t vote for dropping bombs on the nuclear facilities of a country that has not attacked the U.S. Talk about betraying the majority of supporters who believed the “no more wars” mantra.
You know that a country does not have its citizens best interests in mind when they are willing to incur massive debts fighting another country’s initiated war, while neglecting it own needs and best interests. Now the unfortunate question is, what’s really in those Epstein files? What would make Trump defy so much of his base and start the ball rolling with nuclear war? This is nuts and, obviously, America isn’t in charge of America anymore. SAD!
I would say that you fail to see the “Big Picture” and have adopted the position of the American Left in this regard.
Rational people have a hard time figuring out why American leftists constantly side with Islamic savages over our ally Israel – the only functioning democracy in the region.
But once you understand that these Islamic savages and ‘Progressive’ Democrat leftists have common enemies in free speech, individual liberty, free markets and the Judeo-Christian values that made America great and are allies in a war against Western Civilization . . . everything falls right into place.
Simple, really.
And your Judeo-Christian values would have us all smoldering under a cloud of radioactivity in order to hasten the end-times.. How can a world of splintered organized religious sects all be so right when we are all created by the same God. When Christians, Jews, Muslims, etc.. all claim their way to know God is through their version of Religion, then they are all wrong.
So we have, “accept the Lord Jesus as your personal Lord and saviour or face eternal damnation,”, or “convert to Islam or die”, or “We are God’s chosen people”. Religion has become a team sport that competes to be God’s spokesperson. You think this is what God wants?
Christians and the Israeli Jews just want to be left alone.
Mohammedanism seeks world conquest by any means necessary.
It is immoral not to defend the innocent.
Talk about false witness, this Sunday morning.
Jumping the line a little aren’t you? No war has been declared, no plans to continue have been announced. President Trump has done everything possible to get Iran to simply stop making a bomb that ‘they’ said would be used to attack other nations. Not a single comment but over and over. President Trump isn’t trying to destroy Iran but a single danger. Like many, if things aren’t to your liking, you jump ship. Go ahead. After all, if not today, tomorrow would be something else.
No jumping ship, for me. I never signed up for endless wars that pads the pockets of defense contractors at the expense of my tax dollars and the well being of my fellow Americans. I’m America first, not America is someone else’s bit*h first, while we spend money bombing someone else’s enemy. Compassionate religions are supposed to promote Enlightenment not Neanderthalism. right?
Since this site “WAS a great site” I assume you won’t be posting here anymore amid “all the mainstream war mongering and propaganda” that is going on? To MAGA the country also has to be safe. If America is the “Great Satan” and Iranians want “Death to America “ then allowing them to develop a nuclear bomb to be used against Israel and America is ludicrous! The Mullahs in Iran weren’t developing a nuclear bomb for defensive purposes but rather offensive to destroy Israel and America! What exactly is your approach, let them launch nuclear missiles before responding? No more Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings! That’s what President Trump has prevented! JMO
It’s ashamed that U.S. tax dollars created all this Middle East turmoil. Btw, your comment could be misconstrued as a typical Neo-con response to counter opposition to war-mongers’ warmongering.
you’re obviously still upset about the cop not believing your story that you were just helping to push that goat to the other side of the fence
It still astonishes me that in his address the President was so quick to give thanks to the same person who was the first head of state to congratulate Joe Biden in 2020.
Mmmm, but of course.
a surgical strike
is not a full fledged war
take that to heart
and wait to see what happens next
in the meantime
live your best life
and trust President Trump
perhaps the only politician I trust at all
To say that Iran is “a country that has not attacked the U.S.”, you would have to have a very short memory.
tds247365 = Trump Derangement Syndrome 24 hours 7 days a week 365 days a year? Nice moniker.
TDS starting your handle.
Thank you for “the blanket of the very freedom that you provide”.
How long will it be before the fake news start complaining about the white guy using “tomahawks:?
🤣
Maybe everyone can wait more than 12 hours after the initial strike before calling it a forever war?
Or guaranteeing it won’t become one.
Trump’s Presidency and his entire legacy now depends on a nation run by suicidal maniac Islamic nut jobs responding rationally and declaring peace. Not a good position to be in
And yet…your accurate description of Iran was EXACTLY why this had to be done.
Have you considered that there weren’t many other options? The US had been trying to meet with Iranian officials for weeks in Turkey. The ayatollah went dark like 4 days ago and stopped back channels
On the contrary, it is an excellent position to be in if one thinks in strategically and tactically innovative ways.
All Americans need to be reminded of how many attacks and Americans killed this regime and its proxies have dome since 1979.
List them beginning with our people killed in the Beirut, Lebanon barracks attack 1983.
Then list worldwide.
List them all!
The world needs to know.
you are so correct
people need to know the history of what Iran has done
and know that they would continue to do so
if not stopped

My friend in Iran says this guy is also a dictator who is much worse than the current Iranian leader.
https://x.com/PahlaviReza/status/1935027159741120713
His father certainly was; he was, what?, 15 when his father lost the throne the western powers had put him in after WWII?
Am going to assume he has some of his father’s, his mother’s, traits as well as his own life experiences have had the opportunity, gift perhaps, of having seeing life from both sides of the situation.
Just an opinion, but if he was a true leader he would acknowledge his family line, which led to the current situation in Iran, should not be in a position of authority but that he would be up to the task of helping the citizens of that nation decide the future form of government they want, and then accept their decision. But, again, also a bit hopium on my part, wishing nothing but the best for the citizens of that much destroyed and proud nation.
