President Trump has responded with a “thank you” to Iran for their forewarned retaliation; noting he will “enthusiastically encourage” Israel to seek peace now. Via Truth Social:
PRESIDENT TRUMP – “Iran has officially responded to our Obliteration of their Nuclear Facilities with a very weak response, which we expected, and have very effectively countered. There have been 14 missiles fired — 13 were knocked down, and 1 was “set free,” because it was headed in a nonthreatening direction. I am pleased to report that NO Americans were harmed, and hardly any damage was done. Most importantly, they’ve gotten it all out of their “system,” and there will, hopefully, be no further HATE. I want to thank Iran for giving us early notice, which made it possible for no lives to be lost, and nobody to be injured. Perhaps Iran can now proceed to Peace and Harmony in the Region, and I will enthusiastically encourage Israel to do the same. Thank you for your attention to this matter!
DONALD J. TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” (source)
PRESIDENT TRUMP – “I’d like to thank the Highly Respected Emir of Qatar for all that he has done in seeking Peace for the Region. Regarding the attack today at the American Base in Qatar, I am pleased to report that, in addition to no Americans being killed or wounded, very importantly, there have also been no Qataris killed or wounded. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” (source)
Boy we’re really missing Auto-Pen.
nah, not me
The contrast between Biden’s chaotic debacle in Afghanistan – and President Trump’s clock-work operation in Iran where the Iranians couldn’t even get off a shot – is so stark – as Obama would say “not a good look.”
It is funny, really.
The “Israel is the devil” uniparty (the woke left combined with the retardo-paleo-neo’s from the fake right) were extremely unhappy yesterday and are still extremely unhappy. Their implication is that Mr. Netanyahu, like every Jew of course, is incredibly dangerous because he is so much smarter than the non-Jewish Donald Trump. Balderdash. Yes, Bibi is extremely smart. So is Donald J. Trump. Their critics, well, let’s not go there.
The “America First does not mean abandoning allies” contingent were praising Trump yesterday AND praise him today.
I trusted my President when he decided to attack AND I trust him now, when he decided it’s time, for now, to put a stop to the “kinetic stuff”.
We were happy yesterday and we are happy today.
Who is more aligned with MAGA’s one recognized leader, President Donald J. Trump, again?
To be fair, a few articles down, you were literally commenting on the need to destroy Iran, with a misleading timeline obfuscating how the modern Iranian government came to be.
I think those of us who have been advocating for non regime change and peace have been completely consistent with the MAGA agenda.
It was an rollercoaster, with some intentionally misleading remarks from Trump. In the end, he did right, and deescalated it.

President Trump sounds like my high school honors chemistry teacher. We were a raucous group who love the dramatic and impressive chemical reactions, so much we created loud booms, sizzles and light shows during lab experiments.
Mr A waved his hand and loudly bid us STOP! The games were over and we went back to recording our results.
“Thank you for your attention to this matter” was his calm response.
<President Trump sounds like my high school honors chemistry teacher.>
We liked to surprise our nuclear science teacher…
But it was hard to get any reaction 🙂
Thank you folks. He’ll be here all week and he’s got a million of them!
Thank you WORDMAN! 😉
Trump is first and foremost a risk manager. I know that makes a lot of you nervous, but risk is an inescapable part of life and it has to be calculated and utilized. Although the Media doesn’t really understand this, they can feel it in that nervous political way of theirs. They’re really down-in-the-mouth grabbing at straws trying to spin this negatively.
He’s just doing the right thing and he’s doing it quickly so he can dispatch with it and get on with MAGA, it’s part of his shock therapy, remember the patient’s been in critical condition. Judging by the Media’s reaction President Trump (as usual) has recognized and executed the most likely correct course of action. We are extremely lucky to have this man’s services.

Make the problem bigger and solve it.
Donald Trump says ‘fire and fury’ threat to North Korea maybe wasn’t ‘tough enough’

Trumpzilla….
Even some of Trump’s staunchest supporters are saying that he’s a gambler, but it’s more accurate to say he’s the guy who owns the gambling casino where the gamblers place their bets!
Trump always plays the odds…he knows when to hold them and when to fold them…and what we have just witnessed is a strategic fold!
People are also saying Trump should push for regime change now that the mullahs are weakened, but it doesn’t work that way in the Middle East and never has!
Let the Iranian people rise up, if they have the will to do it, but whether or not that happens Trump won’t be to blame and the alliances he’s already forged with many Arab states will stay strong and get even stronger with the main exporter of terror in the region crippled and grasping at straws to save what little face Trump will allow them.
The mullahs also have a new understanding that the kind of poker they’ve played with other American presidents for decades will not work with THIS President…and that puts a very large monkey wrench in any future plans they might have for regional domination!
Like Mike Tyson says, “Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the face!”
the house always wins.
Nor will it work with the MAGA President likely to succeed this one…Giving time for the internal regime change (or not) to take place.
That’s a challenging and thoughtful time preceding and during the last 12 days.
[ ukr, mn attacker, no kings. la riots, big Bill, deportations, trade agreements etc. were relatively slid to the media back burner (but still being addressed by admin) ,
and iran got the front burner…finding that peace could be a better alternative …
… next … more abraham accords… trade agreements ]

Years ago, when I lived in a ghetto my neighbors were Honduran teen gang-bangers.
I politely declined invitations to parties when a drive-by occurred.

“Our persecutors are swifter than the eagles of heaven: they pursued us upon the heaven: they pursued us on the mountains, they laid wait for us in the wilderness.”
Amazing work by our POTUS. Conversations by diplomats and DOD folks from both sides: “USA: So we have included an agreement for peace to check, verify future nuclear plant activities either for fuel or electric energy, would it be possible for us to check on all of your plants throughout the entire country? Iran: Sure no problem. We have just a couple of places that are active coal powered plants where you can check, if you want to check the old nuclear plants/sites it’s okay too.”
What use is the UN anymore?
Nuclear weapons. Iran Vs Israel. Respect for international law and UN motions. Coins always have 2 sides.
On October 28, 2022, a staggering 152 countries (79% of all UN member states) adopted a resolution calling on the Hebrew state to give up its atomic bombs, join the Non-Proliferation Treaty and allow the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to supervise its nuclear facilities.
Only five countries voted against the measure: the United States and Canada, the small island states of Palau and Micronesia, and apartheid Israel itself.
Twenty-four other countries abstained, mainly members of the European Union, NATO allies and India.
The resolution, document A/C.1/77/L.2, was entitled “The risk of nuclear proliferation in the Middle East”.
It demands that the Middle East comply with the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) and place “all its nuclear facilities under comprehensive International Atomic Energy Agency safeguards”.
Similarly, it must commit “not to develop, manufacture, test or otherwise acquire nuclear weapons, to renounce possession of nuclear weapons, and to place all its unsafeguarded nuclear facilities under Agency safeguards as an important confidence-building measure among all states in the region, and as a step towards strengthening peace and security.”
Well, i guess Jonathon Karl got an answer to his question. Too’ bad he didn’t get his wish.
