I'm completely at sea on this. I have no idea what's going on here. So I'll just present this article without comment.

Fake news.
Tenor and context distorted as per normal.

As if MSN has a clue. Are they tracking late night pizza deliveries to the Pentagon?
The track record on that metric is abysmal.

Approved but pulled it back, oh yeah. Absolutely #FakeNews! The president of the United States has so called emergency war powers. Long time ago USS Samuel B. Roberts while on patrol at the Straits of Hormuz stocked a Iranian mine in retaliation operation praying mantis U.S. Navy almost wiped out the Iranian navy.

“Pulls back” was apparently the catchphrase tonight. It appears in almost all the MSM coverage. I’m guessing he gave them tentative approval, because preparation was necessary, then made (at least temporarily) a decision against it. I remember a similar situation that turned out to be a feint before one of the Syria attacks.
Making it look like a backdown, while painting him as indecisive and confused is the storyline though, so there we go.
I also can’t help noting that this info started leaking shortly after Adam Schiff left the briefing this afternoon.

I trust POTUS. If he called for and then called off a strike he had a damned good reason.
There are a lot of possibilities. One is that Iran showed him drone wreckage inside their waters.
He seemed truly surprised by this as in there are obviously back channel talks going on.
It bothers me that Nervous Nancy is against attack though.
All I can say is that “if” this report is true he had a damned good reason.

If somebody in the inner circle leaked this, they should be fired. And prosecuted.

My best guess is that Trump is keeping Iran on edge.

And if he went ahead with it, he’d be a war monger.
The MSM would be criticizing him for military action.
No matter what he does, with the left, it’s wrong by default. It’s their knee jerk reaction to anything Trump.

No need to rush into an attack on Iran. Could have been a big mistake by some rouge or incompetent Iranian in control of the SAM battery. Those wacky Iranians have tons of rouge and incompetent people all over the place who are in constant risk of making a huge mistake, especially in places like Kharg Island

My first thought is that this “attack plan” was discussed internally to see how quickly it was relayed to the NYT. A leak test?

Essentially, Trump got permission. Now they are on the negotiating table with Iran without danger of being yanked off. Chill. This isn’t a rush to war any more than Trump’s promise of “fire and fury” to North Korea.

If there is to be any type of action against Iran, or France, for that matter, do you really think MSNBCCNNABCCBSNBCFNCNYT will have a clue about it?
