People keep undermining the US might much to my chagrin. They keep saying these countries have grown powerful but seem to be of the opinion that the US have remained dormant in military strength for years. The only thing that stops the US from acting as erratic as these mushroom nations is that they run a democracy, and their leaders are strictly held accountable for every of their actions. Iran should tread with caution in this.
US has arrogated for itself the position of a world power. This is not without contenders. Trump must be careful not to flung US to a war that will definitely weaken it and gives power contenders an edge. We aren't talking war between US and Iran. In fact no war in modern history which only involved two actors. We are talking bi polar international politics and not American Films

I agree with you 100%

You not a kid!! You understand this very well!!

Iraq played into their hands.. Afghanistan did as well! Pakistan made the same mistake! Now Iran and it's useless leaders are on the verge of doing same..

Make me Iran's President and I'd stop the whole shit in just one year. In fact make friends with Saudi, USA, Israel, Iraq, UAE, Jordan, Oman... I'd ditch Russia (Russia leads you to war, give you weapons and run away) and Turkey and whoever the Bleep I was aligning with before.. Then start economic growth.. Simple!
I felt pity for the other Muslim countries being destroyed America. but if Iran get ruined, they deserve it. the kind of Islam they are spreading all over the world always lead to civil disobedience and clash with authorities.
they see themselves as the one that will restore true Islam to the whole world. the propaganda they spread to their people is that Mohammed has entrust them to conquer the whole world and restore Islam to it place as the only religion in the world.
fate know why the world was given to America as the most powerful nation. if any other country can boast of US military and economic capability, they will be receiving tax from the whole world or ruin any country that rebels

But YET Trump got help from Putin to be elected and he has not been charged with treason...use your brain, if you have it.

Trump is not just anybody in the US.
He's president!
The only set of people who can take action against Trump are the lawmakers.
And yes, Nancy Pelosi has stated that impeachment is not an option partly because it will take a long time to conclude.
Besides, if the HoR gets a majority vote to impeach him, the Congress will have to ratify it.
Sadly, Congressmen are mostly GOP members.
Again, Pelosi made it clear that impeaching Trump is not an option because that could earn him sympathy votes next year.
Besides, where did you get the evidence that the Russians meddled in the US election from? I love to know that.
The reason they are even talking about impeachment now is because of subpoenas...Mueller couldn't establish that there was Russian meddling.
Please answer the emboldened.
And stop arguing like an urchin and learn
Thanks

So if Trump base cares about lives enough not to want war, why would the head of the base be different? Trump is part of the base who believe in honesty and respect.

You guys don't just get it that there's new America coming through if trump wins this war which is more likely going to be the case, you are the gullible one here.
KenModi:


Trump would lose the upcoming election the moment he begins another war in the Middle East. You think he chose not to declare war on Iran because he truly cares about Iranian lives.

How much more gullible can you be??

Wake up from your slumber!

In a war between U.S.A and Iran, the U.S.A will come up Trumps'cool, yet it would never be as easy as most pundicts assume.

If it was an easy proposition, then Trump would have gone for it i think. Given that he thought twice, then that tells us its a risky venture.
it seems like pentagon have briefed Mr trump and he decided to download sense from apple store and install the app and start using the app immediately

I learnt the drone is costlier than theF-35a which is the most modern in USA war planes.
Absolutely correct
The F-35 cost just around $100m, touted as the most advanced in history

Isreal, when America gifted them with a unit of the fighter jet, boasted that they would nolonger have to bother about missile defense system which posed threat to their fighter jets given the advanced radar evading and stealth ability of the jet.
However, now that a simple locally made Iranian defense system have exposed the flaws, yet again, of another of America outrageously expensive military equipment, I hope they (USA)will have a rethink

Why did you insult me when I never even referenced you in my post? [b]You have to know the difference between a strike and an occupation war. [/b]America lost soldiers (though highly disproportionately compared to the hundreds of thousands of Iraqi soldiers and fighters that died) in Iraq because it waged an occupation war; it fought not to completely cripple the country, but to topple the government of Saddam Hussein, run the country till its stable enough to elect an American stooge. The scenario in Iran would be the strike option which is far easier.

Asssymetric war would always be life-intensive. Even in Niger Republic, the USM has lost soldiers against ISIS-affiliated groups. So don't get it twisted. If an all-out war erupted today, Iran does not even have missiles with enough reach and accuracy to target the American homeland. Don't forget the U.S. owns the GPS (Russia owns Glonass) and they can simply switch it off.

P.S.: Iraq under Hussein was not 'ordinary', it had the fourth largest armoured-force then. It was slightly superior compared to Iran. They fought for years, and Iran was the underdog.
...most of them doesn't know the difference. Hence always making reference to Afghanistan and Iraq.

Ignorant people weighing in on matters way over their heads sha!

The reality is,

Trump is the new sheriff and it's no longer business as usual. Neither Trump nor his base want war until it becomes necessary,so say hello to the light side, the right side. Trump rejects the distraction, the DS is played.

America is not just flying drone over Strait of Hormuz, the timing is everything, and the refinery they quickly set on fire to make the war even more appealing while Trump listen in on their plans, checkmate baby! The American DS cabal wants to lure Trump into a proxy war with Iran to divert attention away from their own ongoing cold civil war in America. Iran is a threat but far less of a threat than the domestic threat Trump faces with DS, though Iran got help from Obama to develop their nuclear weapon($151.8 billion sure put them closer)but Trump stopped them cold on their track. Iran is struggling under the weight of sanctions, the mullahs don't have a standing nuclear weapon ready to go and Trump has at least 5 trillions seized from the Bushes, Rockefellers and Rothschild that can be used for the war if needed. Trump has also removed the Blacksites in Iran where the DS operate from and this is one of their last grasps before their final fall.

Trump knows this is false flag and treats it accordingly, the Neocons, Dems and DS got played, they danced for a few hours when they thought war was imminent and now growling when it is cancelled. The maestro wanted the swamp to make their moves by making it look like he was going to war, even if Iran would be taken care of, it's going to be after the elections. But I think Iran will come to the table and negotiate like N.Korea, Trump is about peace and respect.


And more especially the video he posted on Twitter.. About staying in power forever!

What's John Kerry going to Iran to do? The female Senator, what did she go there to do? Watch, Trump is as intelligent as a Snake, he'd always know where you're driving to!
The sanctions on Iran is working, and you can see how poor they've become.. The one in Venezuela is working, you can see how ravaged they are.. Even Putin is complaining about sanctions and how they're hurting Russians. The best way to win a war is economically and Trump is doing that well.. Let's not forget that Saudi Arabia's crown prince trusts Trump more than ever.. Imagine he's hellbent on selling weapons to them despite Congressional refusal..
They wanted him to play into their hands but he dodged the bullet after raising tensions. People would have said he killed innocent people just because of a Drone (Tho an expensive one)


I haven't gone through the news about Iran bringing down a US Spy drone but if it's true that the US entered Iranian air space then US have no say because they would have done same. I still think it's publicity stunt by Trump. Tension is high now amongst world leaders with all the sanctions and hatred.
