“I don’t see any scenario where President Trump allows the U.S. to have its decisions tied to a stupid “UN international coalition.””

It’s an attack on world economy & along with the seizure of tankers, the IRI wanting to control the flow of oil in that part of the world.
It’s an international problem and deserves an international response. Trump certainly would use an international coalition, because they would help share the expense & responsibilities

See Post #28. That’s the man I supported in 2016. If I wanted a Sunni Muslim in the White House I would have supported Jeb Bush or Lindsey Graham.

That’s exactly what Ilhan Omar had in mind when she was calling for the U.S. to turn over its immigration enforcement duties to the United Nations.

“We ain’t Saudi Arabia’s bitch.” MAGA.

For about 40 years now, I’ve watched Iran intentionally screw things up in this world.

Forty years.

Replying to your posts #42 & 43....

I have a feeling in the next month or 2 you’re going to be disappointed.

If we get to mid-2020 and the U.S. is involved in another military campaign in the Middle East, I’m going to start placing bets on the Democrats sweeping all the Federal elections ... winning the House, Senate and White House in November 2020.

A military campaign on its own is one thing, but if the U.S. government gives a clear signal to Americans that defending Saudi Arabia is more important than fixing ObamaCare (to give just one example), you’re going to see record numbers of Americans simply turning their GiveAShit off.

Make the economy so bad with severe sanctions, that the Iranian citizens overthrow the Mullahs.


Without any weapons and against the most brutal and well armed Palestinian thugs money can buy? Sure. That fantasy will happen right after the unarmed Chinese people overthrow the ruling Communist party.

“We’d attack Iran, of course, with Bibi’s permission.


Make that leftist Benny Gantz’s permission

I think you’re right, but surgical strikes aren’t a ‘military campaign’.

” if the U.S. government gives a clear signal to Americans that defending Saudi Arabia is more important than fixing ObamaCare ...”

Not sure where that comes from, but I seriously doubt that will happen.
