Again! Progressives are siding with Russia, North Korea and China, and against the American military! Once a cult always a cult ideology guess!

Progressives are likely not favoring our military men and women being killed for no stated objective. If you want to cheer on the deaths of American soldiers and berate people who would rather not see our fighting men and women lose their lives, then I’ll side with the folks not posting smilies about American deaths. Seems pretty straightforward to me.

The MAGA hatred and death cult is weird.

Hegseth announced this morning that this is a war with no rules of engagement. That means it’s peachy keen with him to bomb schools, hospitals, etc. He is beyond incompetent.

I read that only one in four Americans asked for their views said they approved of Trump's military action against Iran.

Only one in four Americans approves of ​U.S. strikes on Iran that have plunged the Middle East into chaos, while about half — including one in four Republicans — believe President Donald Trump ‌is too willing to use military force, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll.
Some 27% of respondents said they approved of the strikes, which were conducted alongside Israeli attacks on Iran, while 43% disapproved and 29% were not sure. About nine in 10 respondents said they had heard at least a little about the strikes, which began early on Saturday with a ​surprise attack that killed Iran's leader.

Is this consistent with the impression you have of the views of people with whom you have contact?

As for why Trump started all this, I tend to agree with canpakes:

I don’t think that bombing Iran was on Trump’s pre-election List, but with inflation troubles at home and that whole Epstein files problem nipping at his heels, he probably figured that it was as good a time as any for a good distraction, and has attacked over the weekend for reasons that he’s been unable to articulate.

Chap, I have yet to hear anyone approve. Lots of disapproval, though.

I wish I could listen in on this conversation. Greasy Pete looks like he wants to punch the Orange Caesar:

This didn't age well..........

Thanks to all the "Kompromat" on all the American politicians generated by MOSSAD agent Epstein, we'll just have to get used to the fact that anytime Israel wants something bombed, the U.S.A. will have to join in.

MIGA!

Dr. Shades I think seizing this opportunity to topple the Iranian regime is in the best interests of America, both financially and as a matter of national security. If a terrorist regime like Khamenei's obtained a nuclear weapon, there would be another nuclear standoff as we have with Russia right now.

I’m not so sure that you’re convinced of this.

1. Why couldn’t you just take out the one nuke that they might build, after they build it, if they ever reached that point? That would be super-embarrassing for them, to break that bottle of non-alcoholic champagne on the tip of their shiny new single nuke, only to look up and see a US bunker buster heading straight for it.

2. Russia has almost 5900 nukes and they don’t have to use them for anything. Putin just tells Trump what he wants Trump to say and do. No force required.

3. You’re missing a huge opportunity to have Iran do your bidding by taking out a large American city, which are usually (according to you) packed full to the bursting point with liberals. It’s not like the Iranians are going to waste their one nuke smashing the Waffle House in Liberty Hill, Texas, population 12,000.

You’re not thinking this through, ajax.
