The Iran War (was Nuclear Program) thread
-
President Trump yesterday:
They weren't supposed to go after all these other countries in the Middle East. Those missiles were sent to go after them. They hit Qatar, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait,
Nobody expected that. We were shocked. You know, they fought back.
He also said something like, "Iran did not have to fight back. They could have yielded."

He must have very incompetent advisors, or he does not listen to them. Probably the last, as I dont think that anybody would have said that Iran would not fight back.
Also, agree with @bachophile that the US had to know that Israel was going to do the bombing they did. 100% Looks like he is starting to throw Isreal "under the bus:

Count me in as well, in fact it is inconceivable that under the current circumstances, the Israelis would not have coordinated this particular mission with US CENCOM.
Playing the victim and blaming others when things don’t go the way he wishes, however is His Exalted Ineptitude, Trump’s M.O. and leadership style. As time goes on it rings more and more hollow.
What was once described as brilliant 4D chess in matters of foreign policy, can now only be lampooned as a children’s game of snakes and ladders with unacceptably high stakes.
