Yeah, that's what all you war mongers say when you want to start a war. That's what the U.S. did to the middle east under G.W. Bush by attacking Iraq, right?

I don't think that one on the right looks anything like a nuclear detonation.Originally posted by DivineOb View PostThe first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.Comment

Pretty much. People dying (including US soldiers!) versus paying some cash. Pretty easy to see how little the right-wingers here value lives, including the lack of value they place on the lives of their American soldiers.Originally posted by DivineOb View Post
And as to the cash, Obama settled a lawsuit with Iraq, he didn't just fly them planeloads of cash because the whim took him. He settled for $1.7b. The Iraq war since 2003 has cost the US about $1,100b, and killed 4500 US soldiers, so to be accurate in the cartoon, the picture on the right would need about 1000x the amount of cash shown on the left, but going up in flames, and four and a half thousand crosses of US servicemen dead. That would lead to a rather cluttered picture on the right, while the money on the left if it were to be to scale would be a couple of pixels in size and too small to make out what it was. I guess that would accurately depict Obama vs Trump policy."I hate him passionately", he's "a demonic force" - Tucker Carlson, in private, on Donald Trump

When Trump uses diplomacy to keep the peace with North Korea, he is said to be cozying up to totalitarian dictators. When he kills a state terrorist, he is called a "warmonger."
The Democrats would probably be calling him a coward if he didn't take action against those responsible for the embassy attack and all of the other stuff Iran has done in the recent pass, like shooting down one of our drones, kidnapping our sailors, hijacking merchant ships, etc.
He can't win no matter what he does.

Well, if that was Trump's plan, then it probably won't work. Most of the people who support him still support him - but there are some who will abandon him over this, and the people who dislike him (like you and the rest of the liberals) dislike him even more. So how is starting a war supposed to get him re-elected? If anything he will lose support because not all Republicans support going to war.Originally posted by JimL View Post

Yup, and you know that there are a few congresswomen who would have warned Iran too, if Trump did alert congress. **cough **Tliab & Omar**cough**Originally posted by lilpixieofterror View Post
