    The US has been refusing to resupply defense systems of the gulf states.

    Starting to think seizing all that Venezuelan oil was the first sign all of our Middle East “allies” were gonna be hung out to dry when Iran started firing off retaliatory strikes

    Turkey is a NATO member and has the second largest standing military in NATO behind Uncle Sam himself, nearly double the third largest in Greece. Not happening lol

    Not to mention Istanbul's status as an international tourism destination especially for the ultra rich. The money would stop that from happening before the first word gets out of Donald's mouth.

    It's really too bad Barack HUSSEIN Obama made the gas prices go up by kickstarting all of this when he gave Iran 500 quintillion US dollars in briefcases in the dead of night in a helicopter in 2016 so Ali Khameini wouldn't release his Kenyan birth certificate!

    They're far more likely to make another excuse than they are to condemn this bullshit. A lot of people are already saying "yea but seriously does it really bother you that much I mean Iran needed a regime change and Obama did stuff and look Kristi Noem is like saying these are tactical strikes".

    Gonna take a little more than 6 dead US troops to turn the tide on this one this soon.

    Iran seems pissed at Saudi Arabia. Could it be that they are fucking them with oil sales to certain countries?

    Strikes on U.S. embassies? That sounds like something someone told me we're supposed to be unreasonably upset about once.

    Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Monday gave a new explanation from the Trump administration about why the U.S. decided to launch military action against Iran now -- saying the threat from Iran was "imminent" because it knew it would retaliate against the U.S. if attacked, including by Israel.
    "There absolutely was an imminent threat," Rubio said. "And the imminent threat was that we knew that if Iran was attacked, and we believed they would be attacked, that they would immediately come after us, and we were not going to sit, sit there and absorb a blow before we respond."
    But Rubio denied that Israel had forced the Trump administration's hand -- saying U.S. military action would have eventually been necessary anyway.

    But we were under imminent threat of attack by Iran right?!

    American intelligence agencies, however, believe Iran would not have had missiles capable of reaching the U.S. for another nine years, until 2035.

    And sources confirmed to ABC News that Trump administration officials told congressional staff that U.S. intelligence did not suggest Iran was preparing to launch a preemptive strike against the United States interests.

    Fucking pathetic how you have all of these Dems going on and just war posturing too. Mark Kelly and others saying how they're upset over Trump doing this buuuuut Iran is bad guys so I mean something had to be done.

    Trump is a boss with a flashing weakpoint and these guys are all missing the mark completely. No one wants this, who are you talking to while being interviewed by CNN and saying how you're in support of the attacks because boogieman Iran.

    They have stock portfolios to protect, and donor paychecks to cash. Cut them some slack.
