Some of you support this war

[SamuelTheThird]

Maybe you haven't come right out to say it, but some of you have said we just need to bomb them and the Iranian people will take over. Naive and ignorant, really, actually plain idiotic. This is going to be a mess extending for years with untold consequences.

1. Cite, please.

That's a polite legal way of saying "put up or shut up."

But I would never say that.

And good egening.

15. I just read that post you are referring to and no where do I see EX500rider

supporting this war, and for the record, the post is from 2/19/2026.
All he did was say that this is the way wars are conducted, taking out the leadership and the command and control facilities which I happen to agree with also, I'm not saying I support this insane, illegal war, but taking out those entities is SOP.

17. lol@you happen to agree with

Shows zero knowledge about how Iran actually operates.

4. Third time's the charm? Iraq and Afghanistan turned out almost perfect. Practice, practice, practice.

Unless someone puts boots on the ground in Iran and secures the Iranian's enriched uranium, if this is anything really about stopping them (or someone they give the uranium to) from getting a dirty bomb, this is just target practice. Even if they take out all the heavy weapons, missiles, gun boats, etc., the only folks with any weapons will still be the Revolutionary Guard and internal security forces. Maybe they will say enough and we can try some government approach that is less top down and theocratic but human nature when they have power of any sort makes that pretty unlikely.

5. "...and the Iranian people will take over. Naive and ignorant..."

Correct – ignorant as to how Iranian governance is structured; it’s compartmentalized, power and authority are spread over many government entities and private sector interests.

This illegal, unwarranted war is the consequence of the Trump regime’s ignorance of Iran.

7. I've not been here much today and haven't seen that, but if it is so, it is indeed naive. And dangerous.

8. Not me. I don't support us supporting Israel for anything.

I used to be a strong supporter of Israel.

They squandered my goodwill.

They don't need our help. They have weapons, healthcare, and on average, have a better standard of living than Americans.

[Skittles]

14. yes

they squandered every bit of goodwill they ever had long ago

FUCK them

[Farmer-Rick]

9. Ohhhh, you don't mean that Iran

Will take out pedo Trump when you wrote "Iranian people will take over". You meant that some people thought Iranian citizens would take back their government, like the American citizens should......

What I have been thinking is that the only people who successfully attacked us in the states were from the middle east. And one way drones can be used by most every country.

Venezuela is only about a 13 hour flight and 1,330 miles from Miami. Let's hope the disaffected Venezuelans don't team up with Iran.

But maybe by then pedo Trump will have bombed Minneapolis and Cuba. Creating more and vastly closer enemies.

10. That is from Feb. 19 and one poster

Try again.

11. Sad - but true. They should remember that Republicans love wagging the dog

And milking that cash cow called war.

[Johnny2X2X]

12. People have differing opinions.

No one here supports Trump. No one supports how this war is being executed with bombing innocents.

However, if there was a way to depose the leadership there and help the people rise up and take control, I’d be in favor of it. I also think that’s very very unlikely, especially after what we’re seeing with hospitals and schools being bombed.

16. I sincerely hope no one would support such an immoral and criminal action.
