I don't agree. I'd usually ask for evidence for that kind of hyperbolic claim, but I don't want to get into a derail and the tedious back and forth which would certainly ensue. So, I won't be commenting on it again.

◊◊◊◊◊◊◊◊! I consider myself a centre-left pragmatist. Please feel free to show where I have carried water for the extreme right. You can't, because I haven't.
You just want to smear anyone who doesn't share your exact politics.

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth

Overnight, on President Trump’s orders, the Department of War commenced OPERATION EPIC FURY — the most lethal, most complex, and most-precision aerial operation in history.
The Iranian regime had their chance, yet refused to make a deal — and now they are suffering the consequences. For almost fifty years, Iran has targeted and killed Americans, always seeking the world’s most powerful weapons to further their radical cause. Last night, unlike any previous president, President Trump began dealing with this cancer.
We will not tolerate powerful missiles targeting the American people. Those missiles will be destroyed, along with Iran’s missile production. The Iranian navy will be destroyed. And, as President Trump has said his entire life, Iran will never have a nuclear weapon.
The United States did not start this conflict, but we will finish it. If you kill or threaten Americans anywhere in the world — as Iran has — then we will hunt you down, and we will kill you.
Our warriors are the best in the world, and they are fully unleashed to achieve our objectives. May God’s providence protect them in this vital mission

They will get a briefing
Tapper: Don't you think that if there is the potential loss of American life, that congress should at least exercise and have some skin in the game to authorize the president to do what he's doing?
Scott: We’ll get a briefing.

He even brags about it being the most lethal, which aside from him not knowing anything about possible Iranian casualties at this point, is a ridiculously stupid claim to make.
Measuring the success of military operations in body count is what lead to things like the Mai Lai massacre among other atrocities but these buffoons learn nothing.

Australia is certainly a country where this did not happen. In our most recent federal election, the right-aligned crashed and burned, and the moderate-right had a hand in their demise by aligning against them.
How about Putin? He's one evil mother ◊◊◊◊◊◊, responsible for far more deaths than Khamenei, when are you gonna get rid of him, tough guy? He has a multitude of nukes pointed right at us right now, stupid ◊◊◊◊. What are you gonna do about that, huh?

I was a freshman at LSU in 1979 when disgusting subhumans attacked American sovereign soil in Tehran, overwhelming a handful of our Marines, seizing our embassy and taking American hostages.
We’ve been looking forward to today for 47 years. The perfect alignment of leaders at the top in America and Israel with real courage and unwavering will to do what has to be done.
In the south, we give fair warning before we crack a jaw. I would say 46 years, 3 months, 3 weeks and 3 days is fair warning.
Fly your flags America. HUA.

Tapper, along with the rest of the libtards at CNN is toast. The new regime is coming. They might as well rename it Pravda.

What if another country (like N Korea or Syria) decides we're a terrorist dictatorship?
I mean, the fat clown does allow his maga weirdo fans to kill our own people and then lies about it.

More likely, Ukraine. That would go over with the Maga base better, since they blame Ukraine for the war. And Trump has already told Zelensky that he has to make a deal, just as he warned Iran they had to 'make a deal'. War is the consequence of not making a deal! (I think that is some chapter in Trump's bible)

How would Catholics in particular, and Christians in general, take it if a Muslim Country bombed the Vatican and killed the Pope?
Which part are you arguing about? That Iran is less of a terrorist state than the US? Since 9/11 the US has caused about 5,000,000 deaths mostly of muslims.
Or whether it is a dictatorship. I think that really depends on your definition of dictatorship. It elects the president like the US. It elects a parliament. The head of state is in post for life like the pope or a monarchy.

Russia is not more democratic.
