then again what am i expecting from a country who thinks 90's tech is cutting edge....

ok since it's clear i'm way behind in my Middle east pol give me a quick catch up about wtf Iran been up to for the past two years

Past forever.

The thing is, that the iranians had become increasingly aggressive

Capturing trade ships. Blowing up the oil processing facility. Wanton acts of terrorism. QS has been responsible for the death and maiming of hundreds if not thousands of US soldiers.

They tried to assassinate several politicians for example

And mined civilian areas, attacked our people and wahtnot, finally culminating in an attack on an embassy

There's a reason why the Iran Deal never went through Congress. Appeasing that shithole was never tenable.

It's a country ran by a crazy person who doesn't care if all his people die in a glorious war to get to heavan

With that kind of mentality it's kind of hard to negotiate

all that's left is basically force

@everybodydothatdinosaur @Lidomite ok so basically Iran has ramped up the douchbaggery, been getting really aggressive in general, and is now apparently trying to start a fight with the USA ignoring what happen the last time a middle eastern country try to do that

mhmm

They're just lashign out, as they do

And eitheir they will back down in fear of the U.S., or continue to escalate like before, and we'll simply have taken out one of their key leaders in all this

for fuck sakes now all that's missing is them trying to start shit with Israel and Saudi Arabia.... again

That's what terrorists do. Years of economic sanctions have made them a cornered dog. It's time to make the dog submit.

So etheir we are heading towards iran getting more aggressive or it will be them pulling back now real consequences are on the table

Be it them retreating or us physically defeating them, there's basically one path now xP

so the drone strike was basically a giant statement from Trump telling Iran to back off

ideally iran just slinks away

Yes, it is supposed to be a deterrant, and it will likely have an impact on their performance with the general out of the way if they do try more attacks

And not to mention we can bomb more people if they do keep trying to do more attacks xD

So if for some reason it doesn't work, we just keep taking out more targets until it does xD One way or another they'll be out of power

welcome to the Middle East i bet....
and somewhere in the distance the Saudis are now having a sign of relief that once again they won't have to fight with Iran over Mecca.... for another year

I think it's the right move personally, iran is just not powerful enough to really oppose us directly, only through subterfuge like planning terrorist attacks

So for example iran runs hezbollah, the most powerful terrorist group on earth, with like nearly 130,000 missiles

Just remember, when you give deference to Iran, you're doing this: https://twitter.com/rosemcgowan/status/1212976832544460801

israle's iron dome daily shoots down missiles lobbed at it by hezbollah who is basically armed by iran

honestly i just want Iran to make its religious cold war with Saudi Arabia go hot so that way we can deal with two problems at once and finally have the religious nutjobs have something else to fight over... for about five years

@Lidomite also remind me again why Rose Mcgowan is popular?

I think rose mcgowan was in scream

She was okay in it, she played like the bitchy girl which I guess she'd be good at lol

I have no idea. I think there was a MeToo thing she was involved in?

Anyway, Tehran Rose.

Yeah, and then she had a ton of cocaine lol

also i want to slap her, she has no fucking clue what an actual terrorist regime looks

israel has like daily rocket attacks from hezbollah who is predominately funded and armed by iran

hezbollah is basically an armed wing of iran
