Telling people that are getting slaughtered on an industrial scale to chill the F out is an interesting take.

If big daddy Trump is re-elected and decides to bomb Iran (or more), are you cool with that?

I'd rather he doesn't bomb anyone actually.

He announced Iran cannot get nuclear weapons under any circumstances, and it seems attacking their nuclear facilities is the only way to accomplish this. I take it you dont condone this, but it isn't a deal breaker because the rest of the Trump package is so superior to Harris?

Conventionally bombing Iran is better than an Iran with a nuclear bomb, because an Iran with a nuclear bomb will eventually drive someone to nuke them.

Do you want to stay here and post within the guidelines, or should I see you out again? It’s up to you.

You unbanned him and he is posting within the guidelines. I don’t know the history of his grudge, but you should just let it go. There is no reason to attack him until he does something that is against the forum rules. What you are doing just comes off as another baiting exercise

Trump is probably more likely to make peace

Victor what has happened to you since 2012? Are you going to vote this tuesday? never thought I would ever see a favorable red point from you

IN other related news, it would appear that the "IDF chemical weapon attack" that happened at Columbia a few months ago that Victor was crowing about was actually a Jewish student there releasing fart spray into a crowd of protestors. And he was actually indefinitely suspended for the incident, and is actively suing the administration for their handling of it.

update, columbia had to pay $395k to vic's chemical weapons attacker

Theres plenty of room between having to bomb iran to prevent iran from getting and successfully using a nuke to preventing that from happening through other means.

Iran's prostitutes already got ****ed in their own asses and a pimp isnt very effective without them - apologies for the language.

Iran's new president basically wants to improve ties with the west and so do a lot of the people who live there.

The article I just read on this is comedy. The spray which was alleged to be some sort of IDF chemical agent, is called “Liquid Ass” and can be purchased on Amazon for $30.


All eyes on Rafa... so the IRI can murder at will

No reporting on the chemical weapons terrorist attack by IDF forces on USA soil that sent people to the hospital.

by Victor

I notice that you havent been back to eat crow about being wrong about the Columbia University chemical hate crime. maybe you should have learned your lesson on siding with corpus vile and the rest of these clowns over me.

by Victor

also dont forget corpus expressed tons of skepticism on the terrorist chemical attack by IDF soldiers at Columbia which has since been proven as true.

lmao

damn looks like vic owes corpus an UNRESERVED apology

The IRI president has close to zero influence on strategic policies.

We all remember when the revolutionary Guards chief slapped President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad during an argument over freedom of the press.
There Is only one real leader – Khomeini, and the revolutionary Guards overrule any action taken by "the parliament".

Tiny hopes aside, war with Iran remains a big favourite.

I don't think that most in Iran, including near the very top, want to retaliate.

Unfortunately I think this is true of last time too, and dictators get the last say.


I'm not sure it will matter. There will be events that can be blamed (correctly or not) on Iran and nukes will provide the justification.

I don’t use the word Zionists much for that very reason ie because of its frequent historic use by white suprematists as a signifier, which makes conversation tricky sometimes when you do actually want to talk about people who believe in Zionism.

I don’t even like to say “Jews” and usually type “Jewish people” instead, for the same reason.

But to say that every person using the term Zionist is doing it for the reasons you assume, is completely wrong and hopelessly broad brush. You should learn to read people better and jump to the worst conclusion less often.

Please don't get offended on our behalf. We are jews, and zionists.

Those are the correct definitions.

If that’s true then bombing the US after WW2 to destroy its nascent nuclear capability would have been the best move of all.

Nothing.

It’s not about being offended on behalf of anyone else. Some terms have such deep and long running connotations that they make me cringe a little inside when I hear or read them.

It’s the same as saying “blacks” because it was a term associated with white South Africans during apartheid, and it was almost always derogatory.


by jalfrezi

It wasn’t exactly easy at the time to stage ground invasions on isolated powers, and our capabilities were mote advanced than many other countries already at this point in history.

But yes absolutely a non-nuclear power is in a much worse position militarily than a nuclear power. Just look at Ukraine, who had nukes and gave them up. No other county will ever give up nukes again after what happened to them, and I’m sure many more are trying to figure out how to develop them in secret now.

Of course this is precisely why Israel and previously the US under Obama are so keen to try to prevent Iran from developing nukes.
