US will kill more people through secondary effects of their aggression against Iran, than Iran's nuke ever would directly. True barbarians, except I understand English, so they sound to me less like bar bar bar, and more like a*holes. My gf tries to convince me US americans just don't care and are more like a bear in a porcelain shop. But dunno, I look at Cuba, Iran, Israel and lot of other places americans are very aggressive in/against and it's more like a*holes at this point to me. Whole porcelain shop is suffering. This just isn't the "we are big and stumbled a bit and broke stuff", anymore.

#23Article from the NYT with a vested interest in making the admin look bad = doubt
This administration doesn't need any help to look bad.

#25The amount of buffoonery on the US side is staggering. 1. Iran is always 2 weeks away from having nuclear missiles. 2. Iran's military capability is destroyed. 3. If Iran had nuclear warheads, it could successfully deploy them against the US. 4. If Iran had nuclear warheads and could deliver them, their leadership is so suicidal/stupid that it would trigger MAD. Truly staggering buffoonery.
Also, the USRAEL regime keeps feigning diplomacy after committing multiple egregious acts of perfidy. On more than one occasion they started bombing during or at beginning of negotiations.
Bonus points for the correct use of the word perfidy. Great word.

All we seem to have done is prove to every non-nuclear country that they all SHOULD have nukes. Because it would have prevented Iran being invaded.
It's game theory. You start developing nukes and risk US bombing you to stone age while killing your personally. But the moment you develop nukes, US will likely leave you alone. Choices.

They could have had nukes long ago. They exercised restraint. We didn't. Just imagine the regret they are experiencing now. Basically, Trump has taught some terrible people that they should have been even worse. The lesson will not be lost on their descendants.
I don't think they should be experiencing regret. The power in nukes is not in using them, it's in the threat of using them. The threat of using them keeps you from being attacked, but once you actually use them, so will the other guys. This war has pulled the tarp off of their control over the Strait of Hormuz though. That's a strategic weapon they can use without getting nuked back. Iran is much stronger than they…
The power of nukes is that you don't get attacked by the US or Israel or Russia or anyone else.
None of this would have happened if they had developed (or otherwise acquired) nuclear weapons. End of story.

#28Suprises no one. I remember reading that the IRGC is quite a distributed organization, and has planned for the exact situation they find themselves in today. Im guessing they have lots of stuff stashed away only known to each IRGC "section"
> Suprises no one.
Well, it is maybe a surprise to at least _one_ person! /s

#29Wait, so you're saying there are "WMDs" in the Middle East?
Fun and totally not sarcastic fact fact: the opposite of "Deja vu" is "jamais vu"
