Tell me something is that supposed to MEAN a damn thing that Trump didn't have anything to do with Planning and execution of the attacks?  

Are you fucking kidding me James?  This is something you came up with trying to denigrate the military action by saying the obvious that NO President would be involved in military operations as if he's doing the timing and coordination of a military operation? 

Do you think that Joe Biden would have something to do with any military operation around the globe?

How about Bill Clinton, or even George Bush?  Do you really think any of these guys did the planning and execution and the precise timing of any of their operations? 

Do you realize just how petulant and fucking ridiculous and stupid you sound James when you make such ignorant comments about Trump as you do continuously?  

Do you realize what a complete idiot you sound like pointing out facts like the above?

Tell me, do you think Barack Obama figured out the game plan when the Military specialists took out Osama Bin Laden??  

Are you really this absurd James?

Do you think that Obama personally coordinated with the men who took him down?  Do you think he was on the horn with the guys in the room that did that operation?  

You've made some foolish, ignorant, and yes, ASININE statements in the past, but this one takes the cake!  

No SHIT Sherlock.  Do you really think that any President would be involved in the planning and execution of this attack on the Iran sites?  

Umm.... EARTH to James.  That is why the military has those guys who are elevated in stature..... what do they call those guys again.....Hmmmm...... Oh yeah, they are called Generals and Colonels, and lt. colonels.

My God TDS is surely alive and well in your head...

And the rest of your posting is just more of your usual BS.  LOL

And if your petulant response isn't the very best evidence of YOU being provoked by Trump having a massive success in Iran, then I don't know what evidence could be stronger.

That's why my response to you was NO SHIT Sherlock! 

Your's has to be one of the dumbest and most petulant assertions and implications ever made on this forum.

Simply put, your implication is STUPID, plain and simple as that because your statement implies that Presidents regularly engage in planning and coordination of military battles in real time.  

Of course they don't.  Did you think you had some sort of revelation there?  

I'll reiterate if I haven't stated it before, what a naive and stupid assertion you make. 

Your very statement "well Trump didn't coordinate or plan the attack" implies that other Presidents regularly engage in the specifics of the actions on the ground or in the air.  That is what Generals are for in case you didn't understand how it works.    

I think it is pretty damned obvious that you are SO angry that Trump had such a great military success aimed at one of the US's biggest enemies that it caused you to lash out, and make a ridiculous false implication. 

I think you really need to speak with someone about your condition, because it is making you look like a fool.

You certainly did when you blamed him for the military action when the US left Afghanistan, something Trump would have done, too.

I want to change the topic a bit.  I have read on social media some otherwise rational people who simply can not approach this event without concluding Trump had entirely nefarious motivation.  One example is this:

"Make no mistake, Trump wants to start a war with Iran to increase his already near-total control over the federal government..."  For this person and others, everything Trump does is evil.  To fully support this absolute belief, these people must convince themselves that a precision military action, which most believe has prevented or significantly delayed Iran from getting a nuclear weapon, is just a pretext for Trump's actual and far more sinister motive.  I  am worried when otherwise sane people publish stuff showing they sincerely believe this operation was just a pretext to enhance what they "know" is Trump's end game of a monarchy/dictatorship. 

I suppose one could argue Trump's personality justifies and causes this sort of reaction.  I don't buy that angle.  Sometimes even Trump does the right thing and does it well.  I say this knowing that Trump is the greatest narcissist of our time and often speaks or acts with entirely self-serving motivation.   But not always, and not this time.  Why have some people lost the ability to recognize the rich complexity of politics, of Trump, of our diverse points of view?

I bet we disagree on the following, but I am glad Trump and his team (rather than Biden/Harris) crafted our response to the knowledge that Iran had increased its stockpile of enriched uranium far beyond the JCPOA limits etc. etc.  

Pure speculation of course, but in my view this response, which I approve of obviously, took individual decisiveness, and I am not sure Harris would have made the right call.  Biden sadly lacked capacity to act decisively.  I absolutely would have trusted Bill Clinton or Obama with these decisions, lest you think I'm being overtly partisan...

You however, selectively target anything and everyone that you perceive to be "leftist" and you do so consistently so the only one that really gives, in your words, "2 shits" about what someone says is you and that makes you a hypocrite...

I think it is naive to believe Iran's subsequent behavior would have been meaningfully different if Trump had stayed in the JCPOA.  I believe Iran always intended to run roughshod over its JCPOA commitments by continuously and actively pursuing a weapon.  This is exactly what they have done.
