i'm not offering any, we were talking about a current event from 15 years ago

Okay, I'll land you a hand, @HeadlessCowboy:

what is your opinion of today's Trump-related news on Iran?

He did what was needed to be done

Sending a message

what was the message

Please elaborate.

Don't Fuck with america pretty much

you think Iran doesn't know that?

True but this gives a stronger one

that's only how bullies think

I mean WIII is trending on twitter earlier xD

WWIII trending is not a good thing, it doesn't make us look strong and tough

that's how people with weak egos think

True

men who beat their wives, etc

But you cannot let an attack go unpunished

strategy should not operate around 'punishment' or other short sighted ego satisfying goals

the US is HOPING iran does the same

and thinks like they do

So, let me get this straight: it's not a good thing that Trump caused "WWIII" to be trending on Twitter, because it doesn't make you look strong and tough, which was the idea behind Trump's actions today?

They won't for sure

So, Trump did something stupid?

Is that what you're saying?

Depends, only what happens next will tell

one option might have been to call iran up and talk about the situation

But you said it had to be done.

That would have been stone walled

Not at all, iran has always answered our calls

we rarely reach out to them because of weak ego shit like this

Why would it have been stone-walled?

did you not live through Trump tearing up the Iran deal?

Yeah, but it causes more problems depending on how you deal with what you did after

What causes more problems is blustering around violently and not pursuing the civilized approaches to conflict resolution

True

Or undoing the progress that others made before you for no particular reason.

Yeah

so by the earlier logic, Iran has been sent a message. What message should they send back?

We are so fucked if impeachment isn't going trump's way since some have suggested that he may be more war hunger

Well, they are the ones starting it but it doesn't prevent another strike

Did they really start it?
