U.S. military forces today conducted strikes on seven facilities, which included more than 85 targets in Iraq and Syria, that Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and affiliated militias use to attack U.S. forces. This is the start of our response. The President has directed additional actions to hold the IRGC and affiliated militias accountable for their attacks on U.S. and Coalition Forces.

Hopefully, they don’t lose 1/3rd of their navy accidentally… again.
The attacks are the first of many expected to take place.
Washington Post’s Dan Lamothe has said that while the U.S. struck more than 85 individual targets in Iraq and Syria, these were spread just eight general locations in those two countries.
U.S. officials have stressed that there is no plans currently to strike targets in Iran.

Turning the other cheek to these people just invites them to do worse.
Don’t fire when fired upon, then. Sounds like a good way to get hit by a second round.
Don’t interfere with the US or it’s vassal states while they are busy comitting genocide.

That poor muscular guy was just minding his own business right?
Bin Laden viewed the lack of response to the USS cole bombing as an absence of ‘chops’ of the US to strike back, hence he intensified his plans to force the US out of the middle east.
To be fair though, Bin Laden was prepper and conspiracy theorist so it might not have influenced him heaps.
Isn’t this all because the usa is supporting Israel and Iran is pushing back against countries supporting the genocide there?
Ah yes Iran, that great bastion of human rights where they throw gay people off buildings and stone people to death.
Iran doesn’t give a shit about Palestinians. Instability in the region keeps them in relative power. Everything they do should be viewed in that light.

Because with stability, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen would have control of the world’s trade through the Red Sea and Suez Canal. Making tons of money on shipping through the region. Their regional power is de facto because other countries in the region are unstable and can’t secure trade through the canal.

At least a woman can get an abortion in Iran lol. Glass houses and what not.
Also, your country should stop supporting genocide. I believe that was the topic.
I feel like I’m taking crazy pills…
Half of Americans still support the ongoing genocide so it’ll be a while until it clicks, in the slow one’s heads. The downvotes are funny Imo, notice there’s never any pushback.
My friend you implied that LGBT people getting thrown off of buildings was equivalent to states banning abortion, that’s why I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.
Uhh. Yeah… Both are ending in the deaths of innocent people. They’re definitely comparable lol.
Mothers in states with abortion bans nearly 3 times more likely to die
The idiot puppet of Israel.
They’re happy to throw away money like this and then complain about the sorry state of their democracy. Americans…There are some posts that always seem unbalanced considering the communities voting history. This seems like one of them. Do the mods or users have a way to check on bots?
Are you saying that I am a bot?
No, not at all. These communities overwhelmingly support Palestine and think the US is enabling the genocide. There are a few posts where support for Israel is highly upvoted at first. I’m saying those seem influenced by bots or PR campaigns. I’m wondering if this post is a similar situation. I don’t understand why you were so heavily downvoted.
It definitely feels like I get more downvotes in 2-3 minutes if I make an anti-zionist comment.
Oh I get you now.
Yeah could totally be that, but also consider that when elections are close americans tends to behave like hooligans and their tollerance for criticism of their candidate become very low.Treating Biden like an saint will become more and more common as elections approach. Been there before.
Look at you, simping for Iran.
Yeah, that’s how the world is: black and white. You must be known as a great mind among your people.
Hell yeah we just won in Afghanistan this is a great moment to start another winnable war in the middle east. Thanks Biden.
- Iran is not Afghanistan. They are massively different countries.
End of list.
Are they both in the middle east? Cause that’s what he said.
And Iran and Afghanistan aren’t as different as most other nations.
