Israel, out of anger for what has taken place in the Middle East, has violently lashed out at a major facility known as South Pars Gas Field in Iran. A relatively small section of the whole has been hit. The United States knew nothing about this particular attack, and the country of Qatar was in no way, shape, or form, involved with it, nor did it have any idea that it was going to happen. Unfortunately, Iran did not know this, or any of the pertinent facts pertaining to the South Pars attack, and unjustifiably and unfairly attacked a portion of Qatars LNG Gas facility. NO MORE ATTACKS WILL BE MADE BY ISRAEL pertaining to this extremely important and valuable South Pars Field unless Iran unwisely decides to attack a very innocent, in this case, Qatar - In which instance the United States of America, with or without the help or consent of Israel, will massively blow up the entirety of the South Pars Gas Field at an amount of strength and power that Iran has never seen or witnessed before. I do not want to authorize this level of violence and destruction because of the long term implications that it will have on the future of Iran, but if Qatars LNG is again attacked, I will not hesitate to do so.

(23,685 posts)She made this comment today:
"Was it the intelligence community's assessment that, nevertheless, despite this obliteration, there was a, quote, imminent nuclear threat posed by the Iranian regime? Yes or no?" Ossoff asked.
"It is not the intelligence community's responsibility to determine what is and is not an imminent threat. That is up to the president based on a volume of information that he receives," Gabbard said.
On it's face it sounds like more run of the mill ass kissing, but what she did was just lay the entire decision making process for everything right at drumpf's feet. Noem did something similar when she said everything she did was approved by drumpf, (which may or may not be true), but the point is, never make him look bad, and Gabbard made him look bad. Noem got whacked. I think Tulsi is next.

(25,823 posts)too complex to come from his demented mind.
Whoever wrote it is representing someone behind the scenes who is calling the shots. My guesses are Peter Thiel, his protege Shady Vance, or Stephen Miller. Those are the people we need to be concerned with. Trump is so far gone mentally that they are in charge and Trump is just their public face, kept functioning with drug cocktails.

If Qatar has enough and tells the U.S. to GTFO, projecting military force in that area gets a whole lot harder.

(8,044 posts)Israel and the US hit the South Pars Gas field. Iran said, "OK, then we're going to hit the Ras Laffan site in Qatar. Here's what happens when you hit South Pars." And they did exactly that.
OK, that's tit for tat. Is the US and Israel going to try again?
No. Iran showed them what would happen if they take this course.
So, Trump needs a face-saving step down and this goofy Truth Social post is it: "If you attack Ras Laffan again, we'll destroy South Pars!" This is Trump trying to turn it around. The Iranian already succeeded in showing him that attacking South Pars has consequences. Looks like Trump and the Israelis may have gotten the message, as much as Trump wants to act like the one who is handing out lessons.

(1,042 posts)Qatar says Iran missiles damage more liquefied natural gas sites, 'causing sizable fires and extensive further damage.'
An Iranian strike sparked sizeable fires and caused further extensive damage to facilities in Ras Laffan, Qatar, on Thursday, a day after the initial attack, the state oil company said.
