    You don’t need to care what he thinks but to understand my post you need to know that he’s a big maga influencer, and he’s calling out other maga folk on their hypocrisy and sycophancy.

      You’d think we’d know the exact location of each of these missile and drone launch sites and just take them all out at once. Maybe we do, maybe it’s not that easy, but you’d think…

          Pundit class Trump supporters who question this are nearly the norm rather than the exception. This is more of a time for you to reflect on how wrong you’ve always been to call it a cult. Less of a time for empty dunks. Your only real target are the politicians who would lose their careers if they didn’t toe the line. But in this case, they’re probably mostly war hawks at heart anyway and claiming to be against all foreign entanglements was where they were dishonest.

          I heard MTG on Megyn Kelly yesterday and man is MTG pissed. Almost as if she had legit principles all along.

            I never hear this framed as American imperialism in the Middle East, with Israel as the America proxy, but that’s how I see it. Neither side for or against ever frames it that way. The against people are happier to claim that America is under an Israeli spell, while the for people understandably couch it in nobility and self defense.

              I haven't really tracked the conservative position on Iran for the past decades, but hypocrisy is rampant these days. Heck, the "I'll end wars, not start them" has bombed like 8 countries and the "founder of Board of Peace" is firing the first shot.

              On the plus side, Trump just said this morning we have "unlimited weapons" and "can fight forever" and he never exaggerates the truth, so I feel better now.

                  So, the group of wise elders (88 of them) met a short while ago in Qom, to pick a new supreme leader. Sort of like a conclave.

                  ooops, they’ve been bombed.

                  or white smoke. Or black smoke.

                        I bet the Iranian government IT dude who has been begging his boss to install Zoom cameras is really upset right now.

                          Here's hoping this Israeli method of deselecting supreme leaders continues ad infinitum

                            I imagine the candidate pool is shrinking.

                              Lenin, Trotsky and Stalin would all agree with that statement.

                              True. Probably because the US has spent tremendous effort and capital trying convince the world it is not an imperialist state. It has certainly worked on domestic audiences, not so much elsewhere.
