Ed Israel/US Attacks Iran /Yet Another Country/Iran

Heck, the American Taliban has a ready-made theocracy, all they have to do is find-and-replace Allah to God in their official writings (heck, they don't even need to do that as I think Allah just translates to God since they're the same dude) and replace those crescents with crosses and they're good to go. The torture prisons can become new ICE facilities👍🏻. Oh, and the propaganda artists can replace the ayatollah's face on all the propaganda paintings with the beautiful visage of American Taliban Sheik Donald Dump the first, No One's Done What He's Done.

I think we can put various clues to gather and explain why the attack suddenly occurred.
1) There were negotiations between Iran and the US which the
Omani chairman thought were just about to get somewhere.
2) The iranian senior leadership got together, potentially to sign off a deal
3) The last thing israel would want is for a deal between Iran and the US to be done
4) Israel had intelligence that the Iranian senior leadership were coming together to sign off on a deal, and the Ayatollah was at home with his family.
5) The Israelis tell the US they are going to take out the Iranian senior leadership (and having watched St Trinians some very dangerous Iranian school girls). Unless the US takes out Iranian ballistic missile systems ,without senior leadership in place, they'll default to attack the US.
6) The US scrambles to take out the missile systems the Israelis have told them are aimed at US facilities before / at the same time as the Israeli decapitation of the Iranian leadership and highly dangerous school girls.
7) US then thinks about consequences, shipping, evacuation, etc.

And what website did you get that list from?
And I see you do not want to go case by case and think ANY us military action since 1960 is wrong.
Thanks for reminding me, diespite the stupidity of the right, why I am not a militant Lefty.

Merely food for thought about why there are people who hate the USA because the concept seemed to surprise you. Do with it as you will.
 
Belle of the Ranch on Trump having no plan.


For example, the idea that they are going to prevent people making IEDs (she does rhetorically ask if he knows what the "I" stands for and whether they are going to attack the garages first or the hardware stores)

Q: Was there a plan in place to evacuate Americans before the attack?

MARCO RUBIO: That's the plan we're trying to carry out. The problem is airspace closures that we are a bunch of hopeless chuckle-◊◊◊◊◊ who couldn't find our way out of a paper bag if it was wide open.

No, they've done a 1984 and collectively declared anyone who are, or were ever against attacking Iran to be pro-islamists who supported the regime. Because retconning history, even from just a few days ago, is apparently a thing now, just like in the book.
(Yes, I know that was kinda the whole point of your post. I just had to say it)

For the clowns supporting the attacks on Iran, you have excellent company:

Posted upthread. Yeah, if a military leader starts talking about "God said he wanted us to do this" I'm backing way the ◊◊◊◊ up and going through the channels to get this loon under a psyche eval.

The Lincoln Project? That group whose co-founder had to resign because of a sex scandal involving underage boys? Yeah, they should probably sit this one out.

And the actual CBS report they cite really doesn't match the headline claim they're trying to make.
www.cbsnews.com

The DOJ has been taking down Epstein files. Here’s what remains.

The massive tranche of files the Justice Department currently maintains is more than 65,000 pages shorter than what the agency initially released.

A lot of these removals have to do with redacting victim information, and some of the files that were removed are already back up. This isn't the coverup that Lincoln Project would have you believe.

I dipped my toes back into the Belle of the Ranch channel a few days ago to hear her thoughts about the attack. Someone in the comments declared that defensive pre-emptive attacks didn't exist and that if you strike first you're automatically the aggressor (another commenter made up that they're even illegal, and among the worst crimes you could commit against international law). I naively posted a simple reply explaining that yes, defensive pre-emptive attacks are definitely a thing and even legal if you're defending yourself against imminent threat.

I was faced down by a stream of angry people who decided that I must be supporting the attack on Iran, telling me to stop lying, cut the BS, that I was an American brainwashed by American propaganda to support the attack, etc. After these replies kept coming, I eventually edited my post to break it down into crayons that yes, international law does indeed allow for pre-emptive attacks and that they could've checked this for themselves on Google and that it'd have taken them all of two seconds; that I wasn't even talking about Iran but responding to the OP's claim that defensive pre-emptive attacks as a concept wasn't even a thing; and that I don't support the attack on Iran, nor am I a Drumpf supporter or even American. The replies stopped coming then. At least there was another poster there who was as exasperated as I was about the replies I was getting.

Belle herself has some good content, but this exchange reminded me why I ended up leaving.
