I generally speaking agree with this not F'ing around in things that don't concern us. In this case I don't. Iran has sent assassins here to kill our president and other leaders. They have no business having nuclear weapons, period.Someday, we’re gonna learn that our F’ing about in that region does not work out well for us in the end—eg: first gulf war directly leading formation of Al Qaeda and 9/11, second gulf war directly leading to formation of ISIS, etc…
But not today.
Wonder how many Americans this bull$hit will end up killing…any number is gonna be too many.
It could easily be argued that Iraqis are better today than they were under Sadaam. That said, I don't think invading Iraq was a good idea.Name one time—one—that US intervention since the 1950’s in that region has made things better for the people there.
One example.
Uh-huh.I generally speaking agree with this not F'ing around in things that don't concern us. In this case I don't. Iran has sent assassins here to kill our president and other leaders. They have no business having nuclear weapons, period.
In this case we are ( so far) only targeting the nukes. Nukes which they were never suppose to have according to the IAEA.
No one said Iraq had nukes.Uh-huh.
Same nukes Iraq had?
We’ve heard this song and dance before…
He slaughtered thousands of Shiite resistors after we left them to die in the 1990’s.It could easily be argued that Iraqis are better today than they were under Sadaam. That said, I don't think invading Iraq was a good idea.
Colin Powell said they had nukes in front of the UN.No one said Iraq had nukes.
It's pretty well known and widely believed Iran does/did. If you think they don't you are an outlier brother.
Weapons of mass destruction. I have never heard anyone claim Bush said he had nukes. Chemical weapons. And he did have them.Colin Powell said they had nukes in front of the UN.
“Yellow cake”, etc, etc…
Additionally, our own Director of National Intelligence stated they don’t have nukes only a few months ago…and didn’t change her tune until Trump started to claim they did.No one said Iraq had nukes.

Over 100k Iraqis were killed during the us invasion/occupation.
I don’t think they have it better…
A nuke is a WMD by definition.Weapons of mass destruction. I have never heard anyone claim Bush said he had nukes. Chemical weapons. And he did have them.
They don't have nukes. They have 60% enriched uranium. And the director actually thinks they had no intention of enriching for a weapon. Which makes her a moron.Additionally, our own Director of National Intelligence stated they don’t have nukes only a few months ago…and didn’t change her tune until Trump started to claim they did.
Sure, but a WMD isn't a nuke by definition.A nuke is a WMD by definition.
Is there proof—actual proof—they were?They don't have nukes. They have 60% enriched uranium. And the director actually thinks they had no intention of enriching for a weapon. Which makes her a moron.
Iraq supposedly had “yellow cake” uranium, which is a—ahem—precursor.Sure, but a WMD isn't a nuke by definition.
No one ever said Iraq had nukes as a pretext for the US invading them.
Just last week the IAEA found them in violation and made the determination they were hiding their nuclear program.Is there proof—actual proof—they were?
Or are we just assuming?
I never heard that before either. WMD is the only thing that was said publicly in my recollection.Iraq supposedly had “yellow cake” uranium, which is a—ahem—precursor.
Sound familiar?
I don’t.I trust Israeli intelligence with regards to Iran far more than our intelligence director.
