The entire world (other than Yemen) stood by while the US and Israel committed a genocide of hundreds of thousands of people in Gaza. Countries not particularly friendly to either country sent strongly-worded letters but not much more. Allies of the US/Israel actively went along with it and focused on crushing dissent inside their own borders. Then you have other events like trying to literally starve Cuba for no reason other than they looked at us kinda funny… and still the rest of the world does nothing. This is the prior information Trump and Netanyahu are working with. Would it not be entirely rational for the two of them to conclude that they can nuke Tehran and they won’t face any real consequences either domestically or abroad?
Remember how shocked everyone became when it was revealed that some rich dudes enjoy watching torture videos and paedophilia? Maybe we should treat this the same (I mean better, because nothing was done for the former). It should scare the U.S. population that their president enjoys murdering people – enough to take it seriously and take real action against it.
Fuck, he’s going to nuke that one deep reactor site, isn’t he? Just because he can.
Be hilarious if that radioactive cloud blew over to Israel.
Can we take a moment to acknowledge how weak trump’s raised fist always looks? I mean, look at this photo. Very limp and dainty.
so sad
“Please mister truck driver can you sound the horn?”
There’s a very real possibility that everything this waste of meat has done in his life was to compensate for his tiny hands and microscopic penis.
Everything he does is the Greatest, biggest like no one has ever seen, etc…
“Big beautiful bill”
There’s tons of examples.
Inside his mind he really is a little bitch. This brings me confort at night.
Tiny hands, so small, the tiniest.
Still can’t make his tiny mushroom look bigger
They look like baby hands.
They have that same level of fat, and the proportions are bizarre.
They are unusually small hands now that you mention it, they look so weird
From a different article:
“We haven’t even started hitting them hard. The big wave hasn’t even happened. The big one is coming soon,” Mr. Trump said, telling CNN it was unclear who was now leading Iran.
“We don’t know who the leadership is. We don’t know who they’ll pick,” he said.
What’s your actual fucking goal? I don’t get what they intend to hit here. They’re making it actually impossible for Iran to do the thing they want.
Ultimately bullies just want to bully. They don’t want anything from their target except to reflect back to them an image of their desired power.
What’s your actual fucking goal?
I’d wager that the part they aren’t saying out loud has to do with a few different things:
-
Distraction from Epstein, which seems to be working. Iran operations now dominate the news cycle.
-
War offers some economic gains, at least in the short term for a few big players.
-
War fits into the “law and order” narrative Trump is desperately trying to milk, in a way that the DHS debacles have not done. Unprovoked attack on Iran even just as a show of force has been a conservative wet dream since at least the Bush Jr. days.
\4. Zelensky told him that Ukraine has it in their Constitution that they don’t hold elections during times of war. He thinks this applies to the US Constitution.
Each day this happens it looks like they’re trying to breed more terrorists too.
They’ve now blown up a hospital apparently, on top of the elementary school.
Things were relatively quiet since ISIS/Daesh got destroyed. This is just going to make the world worse.
Daesh isn’t destroyed, it’s dormant. This will almost certainly cause a resurgence, they already killed two syrian soldiers in an attack today
*the Orange is making the world a lot worse
*the Orange is making the world a lot worse
*the Orange isAmericans are making the world a lot worseThey have elected this monster and his regime twice
They refuse any accountability for their reckless behaviour
They refuse to hold any of their political class responsible
Thanks for outing yourself as someone worth blocking.
Be careful because Germany is allowing nazis/fascists to increase their power and you are taking zero responsibility. So be really careful how you want to bitch about the US before you have your own ass bitten by fascists. AGAIN.
Did he say anything wrong? Also Germany is disgusting even without Nazis by enabling Israel.
Honestly, as much as I hate the Epstein distraction narrative, it probably did play a role because Trump is petty like that. At the same time, this distraction is much more impactful than what it’s distracting from.
yeah, I hate that “EVERYTHING IS A DISTRACTION!!!” now.
It’s fucking NOT. I’m sure they ARE trying to do some things as distractions, but most of it is just simply evil.
The annoying part is that the Epstein files would never turn many cultists. Most are fine with it or are willing to look past it. Many just reject that it exists.
-
Look at Gaza. They want Tehran to look like that.
The goal is to keep war going until at least November, so it can be used to cancel or ignore midterms. Having no defined goals is essential to that.
If we start seeing a bunch of “Don’t change horses midstream” political commercials soon, then I know we’re in a simulation, and the creators are just lazy, pulling from “Wag the Dog” because they’re out of ideas.
Don’t change horses midstream
Fuck that, put those horses down and turn them into glue.
Rhaedas! Rhaedas! Wake up! We’ve been trying to wake you up for months now! Come on, man, wake up! You gotta be hearing us in your dreams, man, come on, man, wakf09234r 5tKT23 #:$LT #$@# $J% $R# $J#$DO NOT CHANGE HORSES MIDSTREAM. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO KEEP TRUMP IN POWER SO THE WORLD IS SAFE AND PEACEFUL. DO NOT VOTE AGAINST TRUMP OR WE WILL DO BAD THINGS TO YOU. AGAIN. DON’T YOU REMEMBER? DON’T YOU REMEMBER THE LAST TIME?
The thing they want is an external distraction so people will quit paying attention to domestic issues. Bonus points if Iran actually manages to become enough of a problem to “justify” emergency powers for the president. They don’t actually give two fucks what the final outcome for Iran is.
“We don’t know who the leadership is. We don’t know who they’ll pick,”
Is that why the US is shooting down it’s own planes already?
That was Kuwait shooting down US planes.
The only thing they want is for Iran to be a distraction from the Trump-Epstein files and from the midterms in the fall.
The “big one” needs to hit Donny right in his main artery.
He’s gonna nuke them isn’t he.
If he nukes Iran, it has to be over. That has to be the moment that the US military steps up and coups the crap out of Washington and hangs all the traitors. There is no coming back from that.
A nuke would be a BRIGHT RED LINE for the entire world. He absolutely cannot deploy a nuclear weapon. If he does, we need to help every other nation on the planet topple the MAGA government in every way possible. Bomb DC to rubble, and hunt down every MAGA politician and propagandist with extreme prejudice.
I have no faith the world would do shit. Particularly if the nuke is “limited” or “targeted” or “pinpoint” or whatever bullshit they want to use to justify mass murder.
Any nation using nukes and getting away with it would trigger a massive nuclear race in the entire world as everybody tried to nukes (either to defend themselves from those with nukes since the possibility of nukes being used offensivelly had become a reality, or to themselves engage in wars of conquest using nukes against nations without nukes) and in a World with many more nuclear armed nations sooner or later other nations too would use nukes, in an escalating fashion, ultimatelly leading to nuclear war all over the planet and the end of our civilization as we know it and possibly even Humanity.
This is why EVERYBODY, allies included, would turn against any nation that used nukes - it would be the only way to stop an escalation that would innevitably lead to a nuclear holocaust.
For all their threats to do so, it’s not by chance that Russia did not use nukes in Ukraine: amongst others the Chinese made it very clear that any use of nuclear weapons was a hard red line for them.
“Defensive” nuclear strike.
I admire your optimism. If Trump drops a smallish nuke on a remote reactor facility, we will get grave concern at best. The world has shown its hand already. It isn’t going to do shit, and nobody is coming to help us.
We should be doing all that regardless.
The problem is most of us still have too much to lose
People who still think they have too much to lose haven’t realized they have no future to hold onto anymore, and that it’s already lost. There’s higher chance of survival in the long term if we actually did all that as opposed to sitting around like cattle working hard to afford making babies for them to fuck.
The world would “express great concern” and Americans would sit on their asses and do nothing.
I keep hearing that if he does this thing or that thing, it will be the last straw and America/the world won’t stand for it. Then he does it, or something equally bad, and still nothing happens. Then people say yeah but if he does this next thing, it’ll be the last straw. It’s all just an excuse for why America and the world don’t do something NOW! why wait?
I don’t think he cares what the rest of t world thinks.
All he cares about is what people think of him.
He drops a Nuke, and he’ll be remembered for all time. So will the MAGA bloodbath that will follow. Killing the Top 40 Iranians will be nothing compared to the number of MAGA politicians who would die.
Lol you make it sound like there’s anyone in America who’d actually stand up and do anything of that nature. They’re all too fat and placated by dorritos to peel themselves off their couches and protest, let alone take any more significant actions. A third of them couldn’t even be bothered to vote last time around, when the dictator who’d tried to violently overthrow the American government got back into power and started all this shit again.
You’re still living in some sort of American exceptionalism fantasy. The country is an authoritarian dictatorship at this point, with a paramilitary that has more funding than most foreign armies, and a mandate to terrorize/pacify American dissent.
Realistically? Trump drops a nuke. MAGAs and America cheer, because “Nuke make big boom! MURICA STRONG!! USA USA USA!!”. American/North American media whitewashes it as acceptable and good, just like all the zionist shit is whitewashed as acceptable and good. Americas moderates shrug and open a new bag of potato chips, waiting for aliens to show up on their Fox news feeds. Left wing Americans send thoughts and prayers if they’re too poor to get out, or if theyre rich, they immigrate (like Angelina Jolie) to get away from a country they now view as inhumane. The democrats come out supporting the nuking too, as theyre entirely captured by Israel and AIPAC stuff. Russia then bombs Ukraine, and maybe some EU countries – America spins that as proof that they were weak and were failed states moving towards “civilizational collapse”, something they’ve already laid the groundwork for claiming, and redoubles its efforts to annex Canada and Greenland, and to subdue/castrate any upstarts in south America, likely with increased threats of bombing them all with nukes. China takes Taiwan, cause if Nukes are free to use, there’s nothing really stopping them from doing so given general proximity – you can’t easily “park” a naval carrier group anywhere at sea to feign a projection of power, if your enemies are fine nuking the entire area to oblivion. That’s one reason the states is so against Iran getting nukes I imagine – it limits the deterrent influence of their more conventional military assets. Sorta like how the USA suddenly got real quiet about North Korea and the “DOOOM!!!” that’d occur if they got nukes… once NK actually got nukes (and the doom didn’t occur! surprise! but trust us, Israel says Iran’s different!).
Directly nuking a country that has nuclear capabilities would likely still be ‘off the table’ generally, as it’d trigger potential retaliation. But the rest get screwed. The USA has already walked away from its commitment to things like NATO, and has openly said they’re fine letting Russia ‘do whatever the hell they want’ with European countries.
The above string of events sounds far fetched. But I find it far more believable than to think that Americans will actually do something about the shit their administration/country is pushing.
I was told the reason Americans needed guns was in case of a tyrannical government
Bomb DC to rubble
You know hundreds of thousands of people live there, right?
Government workers, not real people.
This would be sociopathic enough but no not everyone the the dc metro area is a government worker.
Yes, I do, so evacuate them, and the Art. Then hunt those MAGA politicians down like the feral rabid animals they are.
This is in response to a NUCLEAR attack by MAGA, there will be no mercy for them. Any MAGA who voted for it, supported it, excused it, or defended it, is on The List.
With those caveats I am totally on board
In Tehran too. Thousands living in Baghdad didn’t stop us. A world leader willing and able to use nukes in a war they started with a non nuclear enemy is an extinction level threat. In 45 it was one thing, but we can carpet the other side of the planet with fusion warheads now.
All of this is obviously bad, I’m not sure why it would be assumed I’m defending Trump or whatever it is going on here.
Actually him ordering a nuke and the military command flat-out refusing might be what his cronies need to finally realize he’s a danger to the whole world.

I really hope not. But we all know he’s a complete piece of shit.
One thing I learned is that no matter what my worst imagination can come up with, Trump always manages to surprise me by going beyond my wildest imagination. Of course he would toss a nuclear weapon if he thought it would help him, intimidate someone, or punish an enemy.
What a fucked up timeline to have that as a truth. Honestly, this whole thing is hitting me in a way I wasn’t expecting; I’m feeling that we are actually about to go into WW3. If you go onto All and look at the headlines, you can see which country is aligning for/against what just happened… the groundwork for the modern day Axis vs Allies.
Huh, Trump kicked off WW3. Didn’t see THAT coming!
/S
Good thing our military generals and service members won’t do anything illegal. Right?!?!
On one hand, nukes have been a clear deterrent for most of the time they have existed. Their use in these operations against Iran wouldn’t just be unprecedented, but it would be wasteful too: what targets require such firepower instead of other, more sensible options? It’s ironic, but nukes are arguably worse weapons when deployed versus sitting in their silos while deployment is threatened.
That said, “unprecedented” doesn’t mean much any more, and Trump is totally the kind of person who would drop one just because he can. Instead of “I am become death” we’d get “I am dropping a big, beautiful bomb. Thank you for your attention to this matter.”
But the repercussions would be massive. On a scale not yet seen. I’m not talking about repercussions from Iran: the world would need to stand up against MAGA in a big way. Much bigger than has happened so far. I’m not even sure what it would look like, frankly.
The end of Season One of “Years and Years”.
Funny how people use other movies like Idiocracy to compare where we are, but I never see this one mentioned. It’s a UK drama and the US is in the background, but the parallels that we do see are disturbingly close. Particularly in how the world shut out the US as it declined into a fascist state.
He’s dying to launch a nuke
That is the first thing that popped into my head too.
“The big one” can’t come soon enough
Every time I see an article about another person who died I’m just like “wtf man, WRONG ONE.”
Have to assume it’s because whatever entity was tasked with reaping him, is unable to identify him as human, so just keeps firing randomly
“I’m not touching that thing with a 10 foot pole”
Could he maybe say something that means something. Thanks.
Also:
I just got off the phone with President Trump," Tapper explained. "The president said, quote, we’re knocking the crap out of them. I think it’s going very well. It’s very powerful. They’ve got the greatest military in the world, and we’re using it.
Err who is “they”? Logically that would mean Israel right? Did he just tell a journalist Israel has the greatest military in the world?
Insert joke about Israel owning the USA with a dog leash here
American lives are being lost in this war for Zionists, and he praises Israel’s military.
Epstein really was a Mossad agent.
Ah yes, the genius tactic from Sun Tzu’s The Art of War - always tell everybody what you’re gonna do
Sun Tzu: I must apologize for Trump. He is an idiot. We purposely trained him wrong as a joke
How do you like his balls to your fist method?
If you go by Sun Tzu he has done literally everything wrong.
If you want your enemy to acquiesce you give them an out, but instead they’re pushing them against a wall, which only strengthens your enemies resolve since there’s no other option.
That’s why Obama’s nuclear deal was working. But these apes in the Trump admin don’t understand, they only understand “bug smash” levels of reasoning.
I did like when he said they were so “successful” at trying to force regime change they killed every option they felt was agreeable. Great, you’ve successfully started a forever war instead of the quick regime change you wanted. Success!
We joke about Sun Tzu’s advice being obvious, but it’s the advice that an emotionally driven narcissistic nepo baby needs, because that’s who historically has been in charge of militaries. Anyone who understands people knows that cornered people don’t surrender unless the risk benefit feels worth it, but people who don’t understand other people’s mindsets and are focused on glory/conquest are going to think that you can bomb a regime into peaceful surrender and that they’ll gladly give up their leaders. No, you make moderates into combatants like that.
Iran was having mass protests for liberalization. We could have been the heroes offering an out to the leaders and helping establish a liberal republic giving favorable deals. Make Iran into an ally for less money than war. But no, that’s not a dick measuring contest that shows how tough they are and so now a bunch of children will die and Iran will continue to hate us for good reason.
The Art of War was literally written for fuckass nobles with zero common sense.
Do you have any better ideas on who to make generals? /s
But yeah, facials nobles, bloodthirsty morons, dick measuring dipshits, and anyone who thinks the fact that they have power means they’re good at things are the exact audiences of the book. That’s also why it blew American businesspeople’s minds.
Are they even pretending that there is a real reason for this or even an objective?
What does it matter? They said we went to Venezuela for the oil and nobody did anything about it. They know they can say what they want and Americans will never hold them accountable
If ONLY there was SOMETHING we could Do! Wait! I GOT it! Let’s write a SEMI STERN Letter!
-US Congress!
We’ve tried nothing and we’re out of options
