She's going back to over a decade old TDS talking points with the failed businesses and marriage nonsense.

I'm sure she will be right this time, though, for sure.

You are hopeless. Like I said, we will check back in with you and others when yall come to terms with the fact this is Israel's War. Until then, keep digging.

What do you know, boy. For me and many others, this war was started by this same radical regime in 1979. We finally go a pres that wants to finish before this next generation of crazies get the bomb. I appreciate Israel's help in settling a very old score.

So I dont need you or anyone else telling me whose war this is. We are very clear on the matter

Your argument is that Trump labeled Midnight Hammer the "12 Day War", and Kirk supported that, so he supports the current Epic Fury "war"?

Im not going to beat a dead horse. The full episode I posted has Kirk clearly articulate the difference between Midnight Hammer, and a war that brings others into the frey, and draws the US taxpayer into a lengthy regime change.

Again, Trump is very likely to change course and throw Bibi under the bus, within a couple weeks. Then everyone can go back to where Kirk and others like me stand, this is Israel's war, not ours. So all these acrobats to paint Kirk as pro Iran War are futile.

Ok, can you elaborate on what exactly "finish" means and "settle old score"?

If it means a larger scale Midnight Hammer, where we finish air strikes and leave Israel to change regimes on their own. You and I are aligned.

The problem is you and others here want to wait to define what "finish the job" means, until you find out what Trump decides. Then you can claim whatever happens is "job finished".

seems extremely obvious it was to commemorate the successful attack on Iran's terrorist proxyHezbollah. What's the chatter on Al Jazeera as for the "real" reason?

Cool. Then call me in a year when this turns in "lengthy regime change" because we are nowhere near that yet. The air portion of Desert Storm lasted 38 days. Epic Fury has been going on for half that.

Until Trump or the government lists regime change as one of our goals, puts boots on the ground, and leaves them there to build a new nation, you are railing against something that doesn't exist.

Just came across this headline: Mojtaba Khamenei regime executes champion wrestler as Iran intensifies brutal crackdown during war
https://www.foxnews.com/sports/mojtaba-khamenei-regime-executes-champion-wrestler-iran-intensifies-brutal-crackdown-during-war

From Link: Reports say Mohammadi was killed in a public hanging seen as a barbaric move by the Iranian regime to snuff out the ongoing movement seeking to topple it, according to Iranian American human rights activists and dissidents.

Stories like that highlight how insignificant my own problems are by comparison.

Those conspiracy loons move from one fake story to the next, never admitting how foolish they are for lapping up propaganda continuously.

From the link -



"A billboard depicting Iran's supreme leaders since 1979: (L to R) Ayatollahs Ruhollah Khomeini (until 1989), Ali Khamenei (until 2026) and Mojtaba Khamenei (incumbent) is displayed above a highway in Tehran on March 10, 2026. Iran marked the appointment of Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei to replace his father as its supreme leader on March 9, 2026."

Lol, that didn't take long. I guess they left space on the right open for whoever is next. Hopefully we find out any day.

Either the Israelis or us need to blow that billboard to hell in the next wave.

.... and a 4 year old video of Charlie Kirk providing an opinion on Bibi?

speaking of tracking the money

Pentagon seeks $200 billion in additional funds for the Iran war

Quote:
WASHINGTON (AP) The Pentagon is seeking $200 billion in additional funds for the Iran war, a sizable amount that is certain to be met with questions from Congress, which would need to approve any new money.

Asked about the figure at a press conference Thursday, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth did not directly confirm the amount, saying it could change.
"It takes money to kill bad guys," Hegseth said.

we need an extra $200 billion < we are here

nation building was always the plan

Yup. And he's probably still against voter ID.

That was a good read. And yes, keeping the straight closed puts everyone else in a tight spot. We can blame it on Iran and just sweat.

Sending a second ARG to the gulf region (might take quite some time from San Diego).

A relief plan seems to be getting pretty desperately needed at this point:

Sums it up

A bunch of isolationists weaseled into the administration and when they realized they couldn't make Trump be an isolationist the started to sabatoge him and got caught.

The second they get caught they blame Israel, throw out some vague conspiracy theory and mention a Charlie Kirk's name for good measure.

Then they make the rounds on the same 5 podcasters shows and start doing events with other people who did the same kind of sabotage.

Not sure if these people could be more obvious at this point.

Probably not alive now. There are some bots in here. Granted noting like Tigger Dropping which is infested but some here too. The other day there was a post created around 11:00p and at ~6:00am had 21 stars far more than any others. By around noon it had 26. only 5 additional stars only in a high traffic time. Usually a post with such a high count that early goes on to be a top 10'er. This was no where close. Like most everything there are patterns.

seeing a lot fewer pro-Islamic Republic terrorists and anti-semitic posts lately.

I wonder why?

I'd like to believe that but it's the FBI, so who really knows?

Lloyds is apparently working on a systematic payout scheme to facilitate insured tanker runs by an Iranian check point.

Not sure if that is good or bad, but some relief is desperately needed for the thousands of ships/crew stranded in the gulf.

all the anti-semites love to claim Israel doesn't protect the Christians (woeful lie)

let's see what the Islamic Republic thinks about the Christian and Muslim and Jewish holy sites today:

Well that did not take long. B B now today saying ground forces may be needed.

Then of course the most famous neocon John Bolten making rounds today saying that Trump should not have taken any action if regime change is not achieved and ground forces may be needed.

Yeah it was always going to go here. I am not sure why anyone thought different. Some people just love getting tricked over and over again and never learn
