It appears President Trump is preparing to expand the campaign against Iran," one official told The Jerusalem Post. “The remaining questions are ‘how much’ and ‘when.’ He understands that, barring an unexpected development, the chances of a diplomatic solution is now virtually nonexistent.”

How much you want to bet he takes seized election-registrations and drafts only Democrats to die in Iran?

    Are news outlets even fucking real at this point? How can they seriously post shit like this when everyone has been witness to the last 4 months? It’s like putting out an article every day that the sun is considering setting and then putting a new one out every night saying it’s considering rising.

    Trump has been flip-flopping on Iran CONSTANTLY for 4 months. Sometimes multiple times in the same day. A few times even in the same sentence. This isnt a news story, it’s a fucking joke

    Probably because a) Netanjahu made him to, and b) it is a good distraction from his other crimes.

    I’m doubtful the plan would involve flooding the military with leftist draftees. That’s a good way to set up the first US military coup.

      Money not only isn’t real, it cannot be real beyond someone’s imagination. Sure, it can be shared into other “people’s” imagination. You can be all talismanic and ink or carve your delusion upon any fucking thing, even skin, but it’s not actually real, the way whatever you stamped actually is.

      To say they “bought” is close to accurate. “Possessed” might give you a cognitive perspective of what they actually meant in those churches way back when you thought they were all Coup Coup stealing tape measure relabeling Golem puppeteering…

          Allusion. Promethean. EarthBound. Kirky Hippo Church. Bill Hicks cited it well regarding the occurrence of JFK’s event.

          It’s rich, of all folks, you ask me or you just don’t get our namely allusions, one way or the other. Six out & a Hexagon up at the top. Or bottom, I guess. I suppose it really just Depends on perspective like the president’s usual.

              Cute that you vote but have no interest in learning anything you strike. I would wonder how the fuck you bothered to learn something so well as Monero but the use I can smell of you from here makes it rather such an obvious mail-in solution to your hands that I must say how impressed I am by what you think intelligence is.

              You are definitely a very smart American. I can think it from all the way over here.

                Jive struts and the turkeys know the score.

                And this is what you train your mercenaries on? Quadrilateral proportions and grey skies below. The curse comes back to haunt

                See, I can say stupid bullshit nonsense too.

                  What is haunt to the Necroscope? What mercenaries can undo Orion’s strike last first Strike?

                  I have no defense of humanity. The devil is other than I have ever been told or read. I know. You say curse but clearly lack navigation. Hence, you cling to spooky, fear, and apparently, like of the unreal. Seeming unwilling to discern with base logic, Andor measuring my “fall” to a “hunt.” C’mon, I can puke and go to the sun. Even the zombie satyr’s Tesseract. This is why I reject the notion of “jobs” despite occasionally walking it for infinitely other reasons. Like building another empathic sim structure for my own Marauder purpose and many more RiddickulousNess on the list “you” handed to me.

                  If you stoop to sign, you should read what you write upon. As more than enough of a Taurus, I Salut. Especially having such a holy knows. Thanks for that. Much appreciative, indeed.

            You should work on being better at explaining things. You know, backing up what you say with solid evidence and cohesive ideas. You kinda just sound like a conspiracy theory at this point

              You can’t explain what infinite words can never name, let alone describe “properly.” The closest you may is allude to what may.

              Maybe if you try harder to slur and paint I’ll do some reprobate.

    He’s gonna try, no doubt.

    Already, he knows the November elections are lost, and for him personally, that means there’s nothing to lose. From his perspective, he might as well go balls to the wall before he loses Congress and it becomes marginally harder to grift and functionally impossible to rule by decree.

    Iran is not going to hand him the victory he wants and nor are they going to bribe his family the way other nations have. He’s a spoiled, stupid child who thought he could order up a victory like a Big Mac, and in doing so, he fucked with the wrong country.

      i suspect he knows something you don’t, like … he’s already counted the votes. and knows the GOP has won, after all if they don’t win, the election has been rigged, so they must have won already.

    He has been itching to drop a nuke since 2016, this will be it and then when Americans start protesting, ICE will make protesting “lunatic left terrorists" disappear and testosterone induced rage will make US soldiers happily open fire on US civilians.

      Eh, there are a lot of voluntary troops to go through before they would need a draft. Years worth.

      Is there a statute about that?

      The good thing is that is thousands of troops are in Iran, they won’t be here to back up Trump’s upcoming coup attempt.

      Or to rescue Congress from the President when J6 2 Electric Boogaloo happens
