For my sanity, I don't really follow closely anything that the Trump administration says.

Why are the bombing Iran?

How is this possibly in the US interest?

Persia is essentially an occupied state. One of the oldest civilisations in the world run by a theocratic extremist group. Remember, it was only in 1979 that they took over. This is all incredibly recent and totally against the culture of the region.

So, like, the US need to bomb the 💩 out of this regime and their military.

Peace through bombs is sometimes necessary. Worked like a charm on Germany and Japan during WWII.

This is the best thing any US president has done, this is the start of obliterating any terrorism in Middle East
You probably won’t blv me when I say I never supported Trump and never wanted him voted in, but this is one thing I strongly support
No one had the will to do this and I admire him for this one action
Negotiations with Iran was useless

What Iran media? You mean the ones owned by MEK who says Khamenei is dying or has died 3 times per year and is unreliable?

Not even Israeli or American media is saying who did it.

Israel is a rouge nuclear state. Israel has nukes but won't disclose them. Israel is more of a nuclear threat than Iran or any other country.

Israel is not a threat to any nation that does not threaten them. There's a difference between a pro-Western democracy radical Islamist regime which funds global terrorism, destabilizes the region and happily guns down its own citizens for protesting the collapsing economy. The fact that Iran continues to exist while Israel possesses nuclear weapons is testament to Israel's restraint. If the show were on the other foot, I guarantee that wouldn't be the case. Iran has long sought the destruction of Israel, and endlessly chants "Death to Israel." Israel, after defenestrating Iran of its air defenses recognized an opportunity to decapitate the regime and acted accordingly.

On November 16, 2011, Trump said: "Our president will start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate. He's weak and he's ineffective.

Actually it was Trump’s fault for pulling out of JCPOA without an alternative and then trying to negotiate back to something like it. In the seven years since the withdrawal, they went from something like 5% to 60% enriched uranium.

It takes some massive cognitive dissonance to express incredulity that we would attack a country that regularly states "Death to America" from their leaders.

Iran is our enemy

likesmarthelpfulfunny

We made them our enemy.

I can’t imagine anything more hypocritical than saying how we love democracy and then deliberately destroying another country’s attempts at starting one.

The $1.7b was actually resolving a legal obligation the U.S. had from decades-old agreements and tribunal rulings. IT was the U.S. returning funds tied to a pre-1979 arms deal dispute, and it was 400m + 1.3b in interest that Iran was legally owed. The taxpayers were not paying Iran.

So now that you have this context, how much are the taxpayers footing for this “special operation”? Hint: it’s more than zero

Removing a regime that's the main sponsor of terrorism and the most destabilizing force in the region is in the US interest.

likesmart

And replacing them with what, Ayatollah Rubio? You can’t get rid of the regime unless you get rid of the institutions that support the regime, and you can’t get rid of the institutions by simply running an air campaign or an ad campaign telling the Iranians to rise up.

I remember the lead up to the Iraq war and the administration went to Congress to convince them to go to war. Whatever happened to that process?

It’s a veteran-interest channel, so there is a lot of focus on equipment and tactics, but there is also good explanation here of how this ties to broader strategies and connects to the NSS. Non-partisan.

When you say “in the US interest” are you asking how it’s in the interest of the rich US politicians/rulers? Or in the interest of everyday peasants living within the borders of the US?

So today was my first day on a stimulant (diagnosed as an adult), and everyone says its suppose to feel like *boom* magic, or normal (?) , I guess. Knowing that is figurative, what should I actually be expecting? I feel mostly the same, I think, though I came in and actually did started my work today. But I mean, somedays I do that...I just don't want to psyche myself out if I'm expecting too much. Or pscyhe myself in if I actually might not be experiencing what I should.

Been with company for 2.5 years in a SFA role, and they just let me hire an associate financial analyst reporting into me. My manager never mentioned anything in regards to a promotion, but when I asked, I was told that there will be an evaluation period before any promotion is given. Has anyone else had this before, where you are managing someone but they don’t give you a promotion? Sounds bizarre to me that they allow me to hire someone but then are hesitant to promote.
