Trump threatens to bomb Iran if nuclear deal can’t be reached. Thoughts?

[Cubus]

President Donald Trump threatened Iran with bombings and secondary tariffs if the country does not come to an agreement with his administration about its nuclear program.

“If they don’t make a deal, there will be bombing,” Trump said during a phone call with NBC News’ Kristen Welker on Sunday.

He added: “There’s a chance that if they don’t make a deal, that I will do secondary tariffs on them like I did four years ago that brought them to a position that they very much wanted to be.”

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said on Sunday that Iran had rejected direct negotiations with the United States in response to a letter from Trump over its nuclear program.

“Although the possibility of direct negotiations between the two sides has been rejected in this response, it has been emphasized that the path for indirect negotiations remains open,” Pezeshkian said.

He's only doing it because he is owned by Israel.

Israel has been trying to get the U. S. to attack Iran for decades because Israel wants unfettered access to the entire Middle East per the Yinon Plan.

Israel has between 200 and 400 undeclared nuclear weapons and a nuclear weapons manufacturing infrastructure. And it has its Sampson Option.

Why isn't the U. S. pressuring Israel to sign a nuclear arms agreement?

[Cubus]

aren't all US politicians owned by Israel?

[Lliam]

Yes. You can't get elected if you don't have AIPAC backing. Big money goes into defeating anyone who doesn't back Israel 100%. And Israel has blackmail material against many politicians.

[Cubus]

Then how are pro-Palestine congressmen (like Bernie Sanders or Ilhan Omar) a thing?

[Lliam]

I don't know. Maybe because they pay lip service to Palestinians but are still pro-Israel.

[NoDecision]

Oh oh, then Bernie Sanders is in trouble because he is for the ceasing of sending any more bombs to Israel that are just killing innocent people and destroying their homeland.

[Lliam]

@NoDecision. But has he mentioned the words ethnic cleansing or genocide? Has he called for the arrest of Netanyahu or other Israeli leaders?

He didn't receive the Democratic nomination in 2016 even though he had more popular support than any other candidate.

[Lliam]

Thanks for the MHO, Cubus.

You're welcome

Understandable response from Iran, they don't want to deal with someone like that, nor would I. They will deal indirectly.

He's using threats to get what he wants. Sadly, it works. If China was doing that, it wouldn't' look so good would it? It really requires leaders to have steady hands these days. This is why we need a missile defense shield... at some point, some one won't be so rational.

I hope that bombing isn't necessary, but I really hope that Iran doesn't get nuclear weapons.

[Dargil]

I hope a deal cannot be reached. Whatever deal is struck with Iran they are lying and will violate it. The only way to stop Iran from becoming nuclear is to bomb their capacity to create them and if they don't lose their capacity ultimately they will ultimately annihilate Israel and also others of their neighbors. It will become necessary for us to level Iran all the way to ground level. S Your mom is pooing o it is better if we get it now before they do something Like that movie Of all fears which was originally written around Islamic Nuclear terrorism.

[NoDecision]

You mean "Some of All Fears with Morgan Freeman?

[Dargil]

@NoDecision yes. Read the book.

[NoDecision]

I saw the movie, but they are not always the same as the book.

[Dargil]

@NoDecision in the book The bomb was found in the desert by Bedouin nomads. But the Islamic terrorists acquired the bomb and ended up bombing not Baltimore but the entire US capital during a joint session of the president and the legislature.

[Dargil]

I do not know in history if Israel actually lost a nuclear weapon. But if they did, that would definitely be the sum of all fears.

[jshm2]

LOL, the only thing Trump can bomb, is the US stock market.

Iran has nothing to fear, and Trump knows it.

The reality is that the US needs Iran, more than Iran needs the US. The nuclear deal is a side line, the real deal is for Iran's oil.

The reason Russia and China have gained momentum while the US has fell behind is the ready availability of Iran's resources.

[DrPepper12]

Par for the course with him ripping up the nonproliferation treaty that was working just fine, he incentivized I ran to develop nukes! This is truly the dumbest timeline.

[Abbycado]

Thoughts are still stay out of our politics. It is seriously the only thing you post about.

Told you last time, California doesn’t affect you. Very little of what you post does. Do you pull your little thingy to trump nightly?

ffs

[DryGermanGuy]

The self-designated peace president hard at work, I suppose.

[FreyaRed]

Wants he bomb Iran before or after he won the Nobel Prize for peace?

[exitseven]

Iran cannot be allowed to have a nuke, period. I am good with bombing the shit out of them,.

[sethtav]

All talk. Trump is afraid of his shadow and will never cause a war.

[EmmiL]

Complete fool
