The Iran War (was Nuclear Program) thread

It would appear the government is not in charge of the military. The president apologized to other gulf states for the attacks and said no more would occur as long as they didn't help the US, followed by immediate additional strikes.

We hit Iran's data centers - and they returned the favor. Allegedly, phase 2 is for IRan to use cyber attacks against vulnerable US infrastructure - power grids, nuclear facilities, financial institutions, airports, etc.

Hello there!

[Axtremus]

Putin must be very happy with those high oil prices.

Putin considers Trump the gift that just keeps on giving.

One thing concerns me greatly. Not hearing reports of social unrest in the streets, nothing that resembles an uprising. Seems like we’d be hearing about it if it were occurring.

I'm unconvinced that being bombed makes people hate their government more than the people dropping the bombs. History would indicate that if anything it seems to make people more patriotic.

But what do I know? Trump and Hegseth are the experts, after all. And such experts!

Despite the bombs and fully functioning domestic political repression apparatus still firmly in place, people continue to manage and feed their families. When the food becomes scarce and children start going hungry, the masses will take to the streets. That is the way virtually of all revolutions.

Meet the new boss, worse than the old boss!
Look like the old guard got their man in. No reform or compromise.

17,000 years of so called civilization and we still fight wars over our imaginary sky friends. Jesus.

Yes and it’s called fanaticism. Stems from adhering to what is errantly believed to be a creed of absolute truth, religious or secular, the choice is yours to pick and, comes in all shapes, sizes and models.

We're gonna fuck those poor bastards again.
