There is very little left to be said concerning the MSM.

According to the rules of cavalry: if the horse is dead- dismount.

Bandit's avatar

Yeah, but don't they ride e-bikes? 😉😏

Jeff Keener's avatar

Which significantly limits their range.

Cankerpuss's avatar

Or if the horse breaks a leg you shoot it. Our media should be shot.

The leftists were correct to identify TACO as an operative acronym. What they failed to understand is that TACO means Trump Always Crushes Opponents. Kaboom 💥

TACO Tuesday! ... on Monday?

If it becomes "over" with the regime intact, the whole thing becomes a complete waste of money and arms

Ben R's avatar

Yep, except if we can believe anything, what was the regimen is now dead, and a new cast of characters has been revealed.

Have they learned a lesson, or will they go back to being financiers of terror networks?

Todd's avatar

They will absolutely go back because it is in their very nature to do so, but just because the grass keeps growing doesn't mean you give up mowing it.

JohnAZ's avatar

Yes! The largest lie is that people change, they do not. Life is not a soap opera.

Iran is Shia Islam, dedicated to converting the world to Islam and Sharia Law. The only way that they will change is if they are put six feet under.

Whatever happened to the more liberal elements that were demonstrating before the war? If Trump was counting on them changing Iran, it was a fools mission.

The last paragraph is a pipe dream. Trump, going to believe anything that the ragheads in Iran say is as stupid as John Kerry trying to “reason” with them 15 years ago. The next thing might be trying to buy off their radical beliefs with cash? Uh-huh.

Ron Neff's avatar

Mr. John----the mullahs and their minions are all bat shiff crazy so I agree that they may swear up and down that they give up on terrorism but.....it ain't going to happen. As long as their is 1 J person left on earth, they will still be bat shiff crazy. We have to deal with another set of people. I have known several people from Iran who are not crazy muzzies so there are sane people in Iran, we just have to find them. I give Trump credit for trying but hopefully he will not be given bad advice to make a deal with anyone with a rag on their head. I give it a 50% chance.

JohnAZ's avatar

Noted, and I agree about Trump. He gives in to these asshats and any respect for the USA foreign policy will be kaput.

Liber8or's avatar

Yes. This religious war between Sharia and Sunni has been going on since the 7th century.

The two main branches of Islam can't even get along with each other. 85-90% are Sunni, the majority in most Muslim countries, including Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Turkey, and Indonesia.

P. Robert Thorson's avatar

Let's not forget the Christians involved in the Crusades here - the Middle East (aka, Holy Land) has hosted numerous "wars to end it all" attempts over the last 1200 years, and.....it's still a peace-less region.

If the adventure in Iran is to be compared to WWII and Germany, then I believe the timing might be more accurate around the hollow German victories of the Springs of 1940 or 1941. There's a big difference between winning battles and winning wars. Epic Fury is still in the early stages from what I can tell.

In spite of those who suffer from TDS and condemn everything Trump does and in spite of those who are drunk on Orange Kool-Aid and believe Trump is on some Holy Righteous mission, truth and reality will most likely end up being somewhere in between.

Meanwhile, the banksters and MIC are profiting, American citizens are paying a buck more for a gallon of gas and The Long Emergency is chugging along across the Globe. No matter how many distractions come up, you can't outrun its effects.

Liber8or's avatar

Yes. History is a giant echo chamber that keeps repeating.

AwakeNotWoke's avatar

If it becomes "over" with the regime intact then heads should roll including of the propagandists who said this was a good idea, as opposed to one that would lead to empowerment of the hardliners and consolidation of the regime.

It appears that the Dems may have plans to put POTUS and others in the dock of the ICC at The Hague and figure they can do it without even revoking the 2002 ASPA.

Somehow the worst that the ICC could do does not seem sufficient for what should happen to those responsible for promoting such a fools' errand if it becomes "over" with the  regime intact.

Looks like AwakeNot is having a conversation only with himself….

AwakeNotWoke's avatar

Looks like your head is jammed firmly up your ass. "Mark" is an apt name, given that it's a synonym for "sucker." If it becomes over with the regime intact you should make amends for supporting a losing course of action by following your head all the way up. It might also be a good idea to get some boosters of your "beautiful vaccine" and do a lot of high intensity interval training.

Ben R's avatar

He is another nutty frothing one.

AwakeNotWoke's avatar

Pure projection from a psychopathic whack job. When that final Pentagon report comes out and proves that your assertion of "no doubt" about the intentional massacre that you tried to deflect the blame for was pure delusion do the honorable thing.

Ben R's avatar
1hEdited

More frothing from the Muslim supporter of a country that committed mass murder of their own people.

Their crime was protesting against a murderous theocracy!

Squeal all you want, but you're a useful idiot for the regime in Iran that has murdered at least a million people since 1979.

You still have not answered the question of why a school was placed next to a military target and opened while every school in Iran was ordered closed.

Absurdity, you have zero moral leg to stand on, and all those names you spewed forth apply very much to you.

Are they going to issue more plastic keys to paradise, and will you accept one propagandist of the lowest order?

William Wallace's avatar

I’m sticking with the ole Constitutional Republic!

AwakeNotWoke's avatar

The only one in the world that enshrines a "right to sodomy" (SCOTUS: Lawrence v. Texas, 2004)?

elysianfield's avatar

Sooo, SCOTUS put the "fun" back in "fundament"?

AwakeNotWoke's avatar

I prefer pussy to taking it up the butt like "Ben" but then again I'm proud to say that I'm not your typical American.

wkenn's avatar

The ICC issued an arrest warrant for Putin (and Maria Lvova-Belova, Russia's Children's Rights Commissioner) on March 17, 2023.

Putin mostly avoids ICC member states.

The ICC issued an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on November 21, 2024, along with one for former Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.

Since 'coffeegate' grabbed some headlines in early March, the questions remain concerning whether or not Netanyahu has assumed room temperature.

The Arad visit on March 22 stands as the latest reported in-person public sighting amid heightened security and misinformation.

Then there is 'the fog of war' factor.

A separate warrant was also issued for Hamas military commander Mohammed Deif, but it was later canceled in early 2025 after his death was confirmed.

JohnAZ's avatar

Same question, why does any sane person give credence to anything the ICC says? The UN is a farce. The ICC is just another arm of the globalist hierarchy that is actively trying to tear down the world structure. That is the USA AND BRICS+. Hmmm.

Ben R's avatar

Toothless, the ICC is as worthless as the country hosting it.

Ron Neff's avatar

Mr. K-----let me add something to your comment------ .....and the horse they rode in on.

Demeter's avatar

It already has, on a regular basis.

AwakeNotWoke's avatar

I guess it probably will. The thought of POTUS taking Goering's place will just make their orgasms stronger.

UncleBob9's avatar

Trump is a WW1 fighter ace, head of the Luftwaffe and member of Hitler's inner circle who's given to drinking huge amounts of expensive wine, stealing art, and wearing white uniforms? Jeez, here I thought he was Hitler himself, from what the Left says.

Ben R's avatar

Bob this guy is a complete dunce.

There is zero chance of breaking through that thick skull, and when you do, I suspect nothing but air will leak out.

AwakeNotWoke's avatar

All but one of the Nazi leadership at Nuremberg were IQ tested by a Jewish American US Army Captain and scored in the "gifted" range, far, far, far above US mean IQ. Goering had the second highest score of the entire cohort. Other than with regard to where they wanted Goering to be, I don't think POTUS is in the same league as Goering, regardless of what the left may say. Try a comparison with Idi Amin and sub-Saharan Africa.

Ben R's avatar

So he is chopping the heads off of people and biting their decapitated heads?

Do seek help.

UncleBob9's avatar

I wasn't aware that Trump had the same limited intellect of your average Democrat politician. Of course, Sandy Cortes is a special case: more stupid than a rotted stump, but until recently possessing a skeletal figure except for two gigantic (probably fake) mammaries that supposedly make her so hot that (in her imagination) every Republican male wants to bang her like the proverbial screen door in a hurricane. To which I say: not even with your shlort.

JohnAZ's avatar

The real wonder is that you, a competent adult, buys any of this Leftist shit.

Rob's avatar

Hmmm… so Iran is on the ropes? Not hardly! This war of aggression was pursued for the benefit of Israel will end very badly for everyone (maybe that was their objective).

JohnAZ's avatar

Wow, you have been severely affected by the war? Maybe paying another buck for gasoline? BFD, bucko. When are you going to want to stop these radical assholes, when they are walking down your street?

Ron Neff's avatar

Mr. John, the only thing that I can say in support of the group of idiots that says we should just try to get along with Iran is that when Iran would get a nuke they would not be aiming it at any location that I am expecting to ever be at here in the US unless I am driving thru or around a major blue city. Yes, their would be major deaths of innocent people in the blue city or cities that would be targeted by the 7th century barbarians but.......it would certainly knock out a lot of the bat shiff crazy Dem/Marxists with TDS and if DC was hit, a lot of the old pols who should have been term limited a long time ago if the Rs would have fulfilled their promise to pass term limits, back in the 90's with the Contract with America.

Gary Edwards's avatar

As Obama said, the explosion of a nuke in an American city would not change our way of life.

Altho it's interesting that bringing down the twin towers did.

Hmmm.

Ron Neff's avatar

Mr.Gary----yes, bringing down the towers did change things for a little while but......now the citizens (and all the fraud voters) have elected a muslim to be mayor. Sounds strange to me but I guess not to the people of NYC who always have their hands out for freebies.

Gary Edwards's avatar

Well, what I saw were things like the patriot act and TSA, which did and still impact all of our lifestyle.

JohnAZ's avatar

London is run by a Muslim! Europe is rapidly accelerating into a caliph. Canada is working actively against the USA. Trump is right, America First and screw everyone else. I hope he does not retreat from that.

elysianfield's avatar

"America First and screw everyone else. I hope he does not retreat from that."

...Again.

JohnAZ's avatar

Ron, there are ways of smuggling nukes and dirty material into this country other than the tip of a missile. Are you reading about the sleeper cells that are starting to be activated inside America? What are they capable of?

Allowing Iran to acquire nukes is insanity, period.

Cankerpuss's avatar

Hence the reason our military should be here, finding and detaining all of these sleeper cells instead of scattered abroad throughout the world doing who knows what.

Teresa Parmenter's avatar

Praying this ends very soon 🙏🏻🇺🇸

Liber8or's avatar

Me too. The only thing that scares me is history. "This war will be over by Christmas: WW-1, WW-2, Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan". 🤔

Gary Edwards's avatar

Yeah, and that this ends well for the US. This suicidal ideation by the Leftists is, well, suicidal ideation.

Iran knows nothing about negotiations? Trump is just bullshitting... again. War is fine. Iran will keep going. Destroy Israel and push NATO out of the ME.

James Howard Kunstler's avatar

Dollyboy-- Better go back to playing with your dollies; you don't understand how the world works.

Dollyboy's avatar

"Meanwhile, the US will continue to pound Iran until it can't launch so much as a distress flare..." Hmmm. Must be why Trump tucked tail and ran.

JohnAZ's avatar

Dolly boy

All the Iran regime has to do is say, “No nukes” and “we will join the Abraham Accords” and become a sane country joining the ME cadre of nations. Until that is achieved, the regime belongs at the bottom of the Persian Gulf.

Opie the Mick's avatar

Worked well for Kaddafi ,no?

Dollyboy's avatar

The US must disarm all it's nukes first as a gesture of good faith. Fairs fair.

JohnAZ's avatar

Utter BS, just noticed that your moniker has Australia attached. Uh-huh, another British attitude. Are you going to get the other nuke powers to abandon their stockpiles? Canada, New Zealand and now Australia. Meh.

Dollyboy's avatar

Fairs fair. Why should Iran not have nukes when other nations do?

Ben R's avatar

This guy is also a subject of a nuclear-armed country.

Odd how he is not clamoring for disarming his own country.

Terry Lee's avatar

Check the news. DJT TACO'd again. Iran didn't have 'conversations' with him.

william elliott's avatar

and you trust what Iran says because............

"and you trust what Iran says because............"

Because...because I am beginning to doubt Trump's veracity....

John Watson's avatar

yes this post is accurate. trump did taco again and hes delusional about "talks" that never occurred. the poor

guy has lost it.

JohnAZ's avatar

And you know this how?

John Schrauth's avatar

Since there are I believe 31 separate district commands operating in Iran at present, I am sure the TDS crew can find someone who claims they are the government of Iran and that Orange Hickory had no negotiations with THEM regardless of who is actually in charge or the entity currently considered "the government."

I used to work with a woman whose family fled Iran after the jihadis took over. SHe told me, with tears streaming down her face, how Muslim neighbors they considered friends made her uncle, his wife and their children drink boiling tea. It kills you slowly because the tissues slough off and your throat swells to the point you can't breathe. A family friend of hers, a Christian, had a knife tied to her bound hands by the Islamic religious police and they flung her son against her repeatedly, so that she disemboweled him.

The Persians have a chance to take their country back from men such as these, and I hope they do.

Gwennie,

Christian Porn. Never heard this one before...they must be scraping the bottom of the barrel, as "soap" and "lamp shades" already used.

Opie the Mick's avatar

That's awful, beyond the pale. However, it's not worth American live, treasury, or freedoms.

Madjack's avatar

Can’t end without total victory. If they maintain power we will be back here in 10 years.

Ben R's avatar

Far less actually, but ten years is usually the allotted time for the Muslims to re-arm and resume hostilities.

Robert Spencer of Jihadwatch has written extensively on this subject.

John Watson's avatar

are you speaking of iran or israel? I'm serious

JohnAZ's avatar

By that statement, you are not serious, you are showing ignorance.

JohnAZ's avatar

10? How about next year as soon as Russia rearms them and they rearm Hamas and Hezbollah? Until the regime is on the bottom of the Gulf, Iran will do what it can to disrupt the world so they will be in charge. Not on Trump’s watch.

My beloved Kunstler and Lindsay Graham both on the same side? Sad times indeed.

At least now I can say, "I've seen it all."

Tom— If you looked hard enough, there are probably things that YOU and Lindsey G would agree on. Doesn't mean you endorse him as a politician. . . and neither do I.

pyrrhus's avatar

For being headless, Iran is doing an awfully good job of defending itself...Maybe dispersing commands is actually a good idea....But sadly, JK remain clueless,,,Nor is he concerned about the double tapping of a girls school on the opening day of the sneak attack, a war crime for which the penalty at Nuremberg was hanging....But of course Israel has a fetish for killing young children.....

James Howard Kunstler's avatar

Maybe it wasn't such a good idea for the IRGC to site a girls' school right next to am important military installation. . . and keep it open on a day when every other school was told to shut down.

JohnAZ's avatar

Not just that, JHK, why does the world give license to Iran to bomb any civilian target they try to aim at. Anyone remember the SCUD missiles of Hussein? As I said last time, these missiles cannot hit the broad side of a barn from the inside. The Iranians aim at cities, not military targets, because that is all they are capable of.

Israel, or the USA, hit a school next to a missile complex. So damn what. How many kids are being killed and injured in Israel.

You USA and Jew haters are really something else, evil beyond belief. You all can KMA.

John Watson's avatar

your keep weaving in and out of iran and iraq . what is your point?

JohnAZ's avatar

My point was, the same indifference about attacking Israeli civilians seems to stem from all the Islamic idiots. The world just stands by and watches.

Martin O’Connor's avatar

Disappointing comment

Kathy Christian's avatar

Are you as concerned about the children here being mutilated and poisoned by the medical profession in the name of transgenderism as you are about the Iranian girls school?

Ben R's avatar

Of course, not that is not part of the get Israel and hate America bandwagon.

Any excuse it’s the Jews, it’s the Jews crowd are throwing their prejudices behind the Compassionate Iranian Shia Dictatorship.

Gwennie's avatar

Those words are too benign. To me they seem to border on psychopathy. It might be the simultaneous shrieking about the evils of violence while calling for all Jews to be killed. I would say those two sentiments are odd bedfellows but history has proven them an enduring couple.
