Who did we take in? I've heard many people say we took Shiro Ishii in, but as far as I can tell that's false. I do know the US helped Unit 731 cover up their crimes. The Soviets wanted to prosecute them, but we wanted to keep the data to ourselves, so we blocked their access to records and people.

did y'all see where Paxton was acquitted of the original Colin County lawsuit drummed up by 'Texans For Lawsuit Reform' back in 2015? I missed it but I've kept up with it as best I could during the fiasco from the previous legislative session.

The cause that Colin County dropped the case was because the three Houston shyster/lawyer's original bill for an estimated $30k to try the cause ballooned to over $500k and Colin County refused to pay it and dropped it. Those three runts are the ones that tried to keep it alive and even tried to move it the Houston/Harris County.

Kent Schaffer, Brian Wice and Nicole DeBorde followed Karl Rove's plan following Paxton's 2014 win for AG.

My belief all along, in spite of what's been said, is that Trump never approved of Israel's bombing in the first place, and that it is VERY possible his actions since then have been to allow Israel and Iran to "save face," while stepping in and basically saying "Daddy's home, so you two knock if off before I knock it off for you."

I'm less concerned about Iran complying than I am Israel.

106 If Iran launches another missile at Israel, then the optics greatly favor the US and Israel.

120 It would sure be nice if the people of Iran took the lead. When I was in college I had an Iranian economics perfessor that was a young and very creative instructor. He explained how what a country produces and values is typically the basis of its economy. He declared before he fled Iran the most coveted thing to Iranians was the Chevy Monte Carlo and explained why it could be the source of their wealth.
His name was Bar'Arakat and we all knew him as Bearcat and he liked it.

The Iranians have used negotiations as a ploy, to stall for time while they strengthen their position. Meaningless, fake negotiations as described in the Koran. The US and the West in general have fallen for this for decades, or have willfully participated in the fraud.

138 The senior Iranian general seems a rather dull sort. Mossad calls him, tells him what's what, the Iranian general doesn't seem to get it even after the Mossad guy says, "Hey, I've got your cell number, I'll send you the information."

Though, I suppose with the obliteration of senior commanders, followed quickly by the death of the second in command, it's understandable the current guy might not quite be up to snuff, maybe even shell shocked over the way events have taken over.

And to save their own lives. For people who believe in sacrificing lives to allah they certainly don't mean it for themselves. Every one of them dies of old age yet they pushed a million kids into the front of the Iran/Iraq war, not their own kids otherwise who would inherit the positions.

The highly-enriched uranium must still be there somewhere. It would take time, but eventually everything that was destroyed could be rebuilt. The only permanent solution would have to include regime change. Hopefully this means the regime is being given 24 hours to vacate the premises.

Yes, because there are other explanations than "Trump sold us out"

He may have caved to the Neocons in the GOPe who were holding back the OBBB until he did something on Iran
He may have caved to Israel, after telling them he had to have 60 days to make peace deal which the Mullahs nixed.
He may have gotten information that Iran was enriching Uranium to sell to . . . I dunno, something like the Israelis and the South Africans brewing up their own bombs in the 90's, mayby Iran and the PDRKorea had worked up a plan to sell nukes on ebay

282 Israel has the most integrated diverse population in the world. They accept everyone including LGBTQ idiots. They gave Gaza back to the Gazans in 2005 including greenhouses which were producing food. The Gazans proceeded to rip everything down, build tunnels so they could build rockets to fire at Israel on an almost daily basis while using their population as shields. Iran funded Hezbollah, the Houthis, the PA to continue to harass and terrorize Israel on a daily basis.
They did nothing to provoke this except to occupy a sliver of land not in the hands of Islamic Arabs.

344 My position is no foreign war. None. I've been consistent on this. And because I'm not willing to make an exception for Israel, I get the worst kind of hate from small minded idiots on this site.

I get that, you aren't alone in your absolute on that point. But that isn't what you said. And you know that. Disappointing.

Yes, but you've been around the block to know that the old saw is true: "You might not be interested in war but war is interested in you".

Sometimes, avoiding a full scale war is only avoidable by smacking hard.
