What do you think about the two U. S. service members killed after Iran struck American forces in Jordan?

[Dargil]

I think it is time to level the place. The only we are going to get Iran to surrender is to exterminate the radical Islamic readership. Otherwise, sooner or later, they will develop a nuclear weapon and kill a bunch of people.

It is sort of like cancer therapy. You have to get every cell or it will kill many more. This is what iran wants. If you do not understand this, you are a moron.

This is WW3. We lost over 100,000 military deaths in the Japan campaign of WW2. Deaths are inevitable if we want to protect the Westerm world. And that is what this is about. We are the cavalry.

The U. S. and Israel are the terrorists. Iran is just defending itself and doing so effectively.

The U. S. is covering up its many, many casualties. The only reason word of the two service members got out was because a service member released it to the press.

Americans are already opposed to this war for Israel. If they found out how many service members have been killed and wounded it would be like the way honest reporting about the Vietnam war and on-the-ground footage turned the tide against that war.

I swear, this internationally negotiated JCPOA treaty, with participation of Barack HUSSEIN Obama, looks better every day. 🙄

If only there was a way to avoid all this. Like perhaps not having incompetent leadership that put us in a worse position than before. Imagine if we just did that?

No new wars someone said once.

[FrodoSkywalker007]

As opposed to being nuked by a terrorist stage? It was a ticking time bomb. Gad to be dealt with eventually.

[Dargil]

I agree that Persia should expel their leadership.

When you attack another country they fight back, that's how war works. But I emphasise with their families, they signed up to defend America but died as the aggressor.

[FrodoSkywalker007]

Other than the 100s of time they attacked the US? Just 180 times between 2023 and 2024. www.fdd.org/.../

Nope don't count. These are terrorist attacks in the middle east not the Iranian government sending the military over to attack the USA main land.

[FrodoSkywalker007]

Did the Bay of Pigs attack count as a US operation? It was Cubans.
Did the US support of Contras count as US involvement?
Get real.

[FrodoSkywalker007]

The point is, Iran lacks the military ability to attack the US openly. It lacks the ability to launch a significant campaign in the region. Even now, they are threatening to invade Kuwait and hold US bases. Will it happen? Probably not. It would go poorly for them.

What they can do is use their many proxies. Organizations they fund, organize, and train. Remember, Soleimani was killed in Iraq with the leader of Kaitsb Hezbollah (Mundis, I think was his name). IRGC forces have been killed in Lebanon organizing Hezbollah.

The idea that the US is at fault and behind numerous groups (like Brigade 2506, Mujahideen, Contras.. etc) and should take responsibility (and often does), and Iran is not responsible for its own terrorist organizations shows your anti American sentiment.

It's a very silly double standard.
This also ignore the fact Iran openly burns the US flag and chants death to America in its own Parliament.

[purplepoppy]

So you threaten to wipe out a civilisation because a few people burn a flag

[FrodoSkywalker007]

Trump is known for exaggerating. His "unpresidential" way of speaking services his opponents. Yes, this regime needs to be overthrown. It has cost the lives of many Americans (and many many more others). It makes strategic sense. Sadly, so far, it hasn't been a American objective. It's weird to me.

Iranians support the strikes and regime change

You reply is also very dishonest. You ignore most of my reply and mischaracterize the rest.

[Agape93]

Don't really give a shit. But I'm all for glassing Iran

[FrodoSkywalker007]

It's sad, but a reality. Our losses have been tiny compared to them. Time to stop playing games.

[Pohjolan]

" You already got a new radical Islamic readership."

"Yes but what about third radical Islamic readership?"

[Cidknee]

I said that 3 days ago when they started it again. Wipe the place clean.

Nice Hitlerian viewpoint, Dargil !!!
