But seriously, there is a lot to think about on this issue.  As usual, the conversation has been informative and a pleasure.  Jim

Speaking of things we won't know for a while, do you all think the cease fire brokered and bullied into existence by Trump will stick?  So far it looks good, but again, we won't know for a long time.  I will say if this cease fire sticks, this will have to be considered Trump's best week in office so far.  I'm not naive enough to think his opponents will give him any credit, but still this is about as good a "next couple days" after the bombing as anyone could have hoped for.

The markets think so too!

But of course the leftists in the Bullshit media, as do many on the left, and here as well, hate the President so much more than they love the United States of America, which is why they are desperately trying to downplay the attack as only setting back the Ayatollahs and Mullahs who run the evil empire or Iran a few months in their nuclear program. 

It is really strange as an American who loves this country and wants us to the largest powerhouse on Earth both economically and militarily, to have to understand that there are 10s of Millions of American who are just giddy and hope that the damage done to our biggest enemy on planet is negligible and will peddle the lies and innuendo put forth by the leftist media that really those bunker buster bombs didn't do very much damage.

Maybe one of these haters here can explain to me and others, the overall elation on the left in downplaying the role of our military and the guys out there in Uniform who just risked their lives to destroy the nuclear capabilities of our mortal enemy Iran. 

I've come to expect the leftist liars in the media who put out articles that go against the interest of the USA, but it really is sad to watch the mindset of leftists who root against this country in every facet of life and can't wait to find any article that claims that the USA and its military really didn't do what we claimed.  

It is interesting that the evil nation of iran came out and stated that these 12 bunker buster bombs almost obliterated their nuclear capabilities and yet the Scum media on the left like CNN are so happy to try and claim the exact opposite.  

It is a shame but that is what the leftist Democrat party leadership is all about these days.  You leftists must be so proud of your politicians, and so very proud to belong to the party of Hate America and the party of America last, and always last, that they root for the enemy over this great nation.

Oh, and every one here aside from myself and Chris who posts sometimes, since no others here is a certifiable Trump hater, with massive TDS.  

But hey you're free to deny it and lie once more if you do deny it.

This is gonna matter in 2028.  Will the DNC line up behind AOC or Newsome, or can they somehow convince a possible winner like Shapiro to run?   If the D candidate is Newsome (or AOC, heaven forbid), all my liberal friends better get used to saying "President Vance" through January 2037!

Another unknown is whether Iran indeed has the "know how" to quickly and clandestinely assemble an operable nuclear warhead and missile.  The Israelis have been ruthlessly effective assassinating Iran's top nuclear scientists.  One of the better deterrences of Iran's further efforts toward a nuke may be that Israeli intelligence appears to be able to operate at will in Iran.  The Supreme Leader is in hiding for a very good reason, but I bet the Israelis could get him if they wanted him.  After last year's cell phone and pager attacks on Hezbollah, nothing seems to be beyond the technical and tactical capabilities of Mossad and the Israeli military.

Also, the left wing press and politicians are acting like the B2 bombing was of limited success while the right wing press and politicians act like it was a complete obliteration.  Why is this even the issue?  If the first attack was not 100% successful at wiping out the key nuclear sites, we still have B2s and big-ass bombs.   I'm guessing that a few follow up raids would eventually be 100% successful no matter how hard the subterrain is.  I truly hope it does not come to that, but Iran knows this is a possibility.  

Last, even though Iran may have moved a stockpile of partially enriched uranium (A)  I bet Israel or the US either knows where it is, or can find it, and (B) Iran is going to have a tough time finalizing the enrichment process, building a warhead, and fitting it to a missile in secret.  It is not like they can do all of that in someone's garage.

Well see Dave, there are so many different pejoratives the man uses to describe me that it is hard to keep track. 

What I find to be laughable about his postings is that he claims I'm playing the victim.

To James and those like him on the left, all leftists enjoy a double standard that the world is supposed to accept.

His charges against me, claiming that I'm "playing the victim card", is his way of not having to answer for his blatant hypocrisy.

So I apologize that I was unable to list all of the pejoratives he comes up with to label me.  

I'll try to do better next time.  LOL!  


BTW, pointing out a fact isn't playing a victim here. I'm happy to take on all of the left, because well, aside from Chris, each and every regular poster here is either left of center or far left of center.

He also conveniently ignored the posts Russ and I made using ChatGBT and how a more reasonable posting style would be more effective. As it has been said he's nothing but a Trump bootlicker.

And your laughable statement implying "well the rest of us are able to get along", that is classic leftist spin. 

Of course I'm the center of every exchange that involves argumentation.  It is pretty simple to explain.  

Try to wrap your brain around this.  Every other person on this forum is a liberal or a far left radical, so of course your responses to each other are going to be tepid.

The fact remains that you and your buddy there in Michigan tend to begin name calling towards me and so I respond in kind.  

His latest pejorative comment to me involved calling me an asshole when he perceived me as insulting his intelligence.  

So then James I would suggest to you that if you can't take it, don't dish it out and furthermore, I'd suggest that you quit whining so incessantly as you keep doing, that I give it back to you in spades.  

Either get used to getting it back or shut your fat mouth and quit with the regular insults towards me.  

It is quite a simple fix.  If you are as intelligent as you so often claim to be here, I'll reiterate for you to shut your fat mouth.  Capiche?
