Does anyone force people to join the American military? There is no longer conscription. How about the tens of thousands of Iranians being butchered by their own government. Or the murderous puppet military forces of Hamas, Houthi and Hezbollah, funded, armed and trained by Iran.Did you or any of your family ever served in a war zone?
Have you or any of your family ever seen young men die for nothing.
Have you or your family ever suffered wounds,spent months in hospitals, and still deal with the affects both physically and mentally?
Has any of your sons or grandsons suffered and are still suffering.
Many of us have and still deal with the horror. I do not want anyone to go through what so many have in the past.
If you believe there will not be American boots on the ground you are deceiving yourself.
What angers me are those like Trump and other rich men who are willing to send America's sons and daughters into battle, to suffer and die while they and their privileged children enjoy their safe life of luxury.
And even more so are those citizens who support them.
I had better leave this place because I am getting sick to my stomach listening to all this trash.

Wide spread Electronic jamming reported over Iranian Airspace. This is usually typical of pre-attack preparation.

"Young men die for nothing." Yes, and so do the old and children and students of Israel, Gaza, Lebanon and other Muslim hell holes. Either Iran is stopped or Iran will develop a nuke and they will use it. They will first attack Israel then the rest of the world. You are naive to say the least.
World War 3 has been under way since the 1970's when the Muslim nations realised how much power their oil resources gave them. Do you not know the Muslim war declaration? "First the Saturday people, then the Sunday people". Iran constantly declares death to Israel and death to America. If you think that they are not serious, check out their military. It is not a local defence force. It can strike Israel and is developing missiles to attack pretty much anywhere.
I'm ex military. I volunteered. Vietnam was well underway but I was Navy and spent only a week in the war zone. However, I'm old enough to know that you won't end Muslim violence by sitting around the campfire singing "Kumbyah".
Mr Trump expressed surprise that the massed armed forces have not caused Iran to capitulate. And that is exactly why American policy in the Middle East is a failure. Americans still don't get it. I don't know why for sure, but Americans seem to think that the whole world wants to be just like America. By now, it should be obvious that Americans are kidding themselves. Islam is opposed to everything that the West stands for, including the shreds of Christianity that are left.
"Observation of other countries in the Middle East". What could possibly go wrong.I doubt that they will mollify Israel with this shucking and jiving. Iran would need to abandon their nuclear program completely. Including abandoning centrifuges and enrichment.

Iran has indicated it is prepared to make major concessions in regards to its nuclear program in talks Thursday with the United States, in return for the lifting of sanctions and recognition of its right to enrich uranium, as it seeks to prevent a future attack, a senior Iranian official told Reuters.
The official said Tehran would seriously consider a combination of sending half of its most highly-enriched uranium abroad, to countries like Russia, while diluting the rest and taking part in creating a regional enrichment consortium - an idea periodically raised in years of Iran-linked diplomacy which would place large parts of Iran’s nuclear enrichment under the control and observation of other countries in the Middle East.
I hope you are right. It is reported that Mr Trump will be guided by Jared Kushner and Steve - the Russian agent - Witkoff. I have zero confidence in either of them. Thank God for God. He gets the last word.It's okay he just doesn't understand our tech and talent disparity is so vast it's literally Star Wars versus molding 1970s rubbish (ironically much of which is actually originally made by US actually and they stole from the Shah) when their dark wizard shia-esque cult first seized the state. It's fair to not want even low casualties, we're aiming for no American casualties with a large amount of coverage to ensure that. Can't promise nothing for the cult though. They have the chance to surrender still, imo unfortunately Trump has stalled still, Trump has been talking about having one more round of talks attempts Thursday, so we'll see I guess but I think he should just strike them. No need to dig around too long for a casus belli, they already massacred 30,000 people right here in the 21st century and they should've been dealt with already just for that even if it was just a minor show of force strike to show this won't be tolerated (ie: similar to Yugoslavia in 90s which actually had a fraction of this massacre's death toll.). The protests in Iran are heating up again, it's basically last call for the regime of pagan wizards, they can surrender to US Thursday, they can hop on Russia's planes and boats and get out right now, or they can play Tomahawk dodgeball and gamble with their lives. They have a generous array of options before them, but limited time. Iran will be free, praise Jesus..

A diplomat does not take sides in a dispute. All Mr Witkoff has done is side with Russia, repeating Russian propaganda and slandering Mr Zelensky. The truth is out there. Mr Witkoff deliberately ignores it. He may as well be Putin's puppet. Mr Witkoff is of Russian descent. You think he would know better.I like your sentiment but I disagree about your assessment of Witkoff, he has been a historically great diplomat both for his depth of knowledge but also he's been covering a lot to be honest he pulls a lot of weight, and he also pulls above his weight too, this is a guy who puts in a lot of work and doesn't get the limelight so often or credit for it. He's working as a diplomat, though Russia sucks and is evil, Witkoff's capacity is a diplomat it's fair for him to try these high risk talks and he has done very key and big things along with Jared Kushner for the Middle East both Israel which I kow you are partial to, but even honestly the whole region and a lot of the big summits and talks and issues from last year. In my opinion Witkoff just wears too many hats, he's brilliant but perhaps it be sage to focus him more in MidEast in a more organic way as the 2nd Trump Admin settles in now to year 2, and the MidEast has been genuinely apolitically where his results been more positive, and form a new team around Ukraine. Though I suppose we are digressing a bit so I'll just leave my thoughts there.
Heavily disagree, The current administration has given Ukraine tons of aid without just letting them rip US off. Ukraine I feel for them but hey they're technically not part of NATO. Trump , albeit kinda begrudgingly, forgave them swindling Biden for a trillion bucks basically while USA was in the midst of a crises economy. We have kept our end of the terms agreed to in the 90s we have paid well over the value of their nukes to defend them. We still continue to help too, but now it is just a normal unilateral agreement simply put.A diplomat does not take sides in a dispute.

The present administration would cheerfully hand Ukraine over to Russia. This is in spite of two security guarantees that America has not honoured. Bill Clinton said that coercing Ukraine into giving up its nukes was a terrible decision. I agree. If Ukraine still had nukes, we would not be having this conversation.

At any rate, though the Russians are stubborn as idolators, to this topic, as I've said before months ago, you know getting rid of the regime in Iran has side benefits applicable to other news topics like the Ukraine War. Consider that though most of Russia's own arsenal is trash that it's Iran which supplies Russia with one of their actual most effective weapons the shahed drone (again unironically made using design of a drone they stole from US during Obama's era). The Russian spies on Telegram are extra triggered lately because they know losing one of their best weapons of war means their war in Ukraine is going to end soon one way or the other and it's not going to be them taking Kiev in three days that is most certain.
To which I'll risk an accusation of a troll......and consider the pre-planned 4D imperium of the saints chess move it would be to then turn around and have Free Iran not only take Russia's shaheds away but to then sell them to Ukraine instead.Plots within plots like Frank Herbert's Dune. For now though let us continue to watch as Iran will be free, praise Jesus.
From what I've read, Russia doesn't buy shaheds from Iran anymore. They make their own and are into their 3 or 4th version, with the latest having jet engines.
Ukraine is wiping the floor with Russia. Russia is near bankrupt, is running out of soldiers, military hardware and ideas. It's leadership is mired in WW2 tactics. Ukraine is progressively destroying Russia's munitions factories and refineries. America wants Europe to step up. That's happening. Ukraine is now an exporter of home developed weapons.They know Ukraine is a lost cause and are trying to save face. Everything you're seeing now is theater.
