Whether or not you agree with Trump’s decision, it’s impressive that he was able to accomplish this feat with zero US casualties, and Iran evacuated their facilities before the strikes, so no civilian casualties reported as of now either.
Surgical precision.
Trump offered Iran every opportunity for a diplomatic off-ramp, and they repeatedly refused.
He told them they could do it the easy way or the hard way, and it looks like they chose the hard way.
Now Iran have no leverage and they are outmatched militarily, and they know it.
Looks like Iran refused to capitulate.
Trump says the US MIL just completed strikes on three nuclear sites in Iran.
Now Trump is calling for peace.
Let’s see how the Iranians choose to respond.
So what lessons did we learn over the last 10 days?
Don’t trust unconfirmed MSM reports from unnamed sources, “people familiar with conversations”, or “Israeli officials assess”, etc.
They have been wrong damn near every time, and a bunch of people just got burned for basing their entire analysis of the situation on these false reports.
Also, I didn’t think I needed to clarify this, but just because our carrier strike groups or other military assets move to points of interest around the globe, does not mean we are 100% going to war. USMIL will move assets and personnel whenever there is a potential threat, so they can be in position if things were to escalate. This is nothing new or out of the ordinary.
A lot of people allowed emotions to cloud their judgement, and now they are paying the price for it.
Trump announces he and Rubio helped broker a peace deal between Congo and Rwanda, and that representatives will be coming to Washington to sign documents.
Trump then reiterates he is the peace President, and that diplomacy is his objective for all conflicts worldwide.
It’s beginning to look like the panicans jumped the gun, AGAIN. Like clockwork.
Y’all wanna know how I know Trump is not controlled by the Deep State?
Because the media has been publishing 99% negative Trump coverage since he came down the escalator.
Because they tried to overthrow him, tried to imprison him, then tried to kill him.
If Trump was part of the establishment, the establishment would not have tried so hard to stop him. If Trump was part of the machine, Trump would not have exposed the machine.
Anyone saying Trump is compromised is just admitting they are unserious and unworthy of your attention.
Without Trump, the public wouldn’t even know the Deep State exists.
Just to be clear, MAGA is not divided.
The only ones who have their panties in a bunch, are the Libertarians, never-Trumpers, and Israel-obsessed dipshits, who begrudgingly voted Trump, because there were no other options.
They have been looking for a reason to turn on Trump. They so badly want Trump to fail, so they can be right about their deeply-ingrained TDS. Many of them never actually supported Trump, and have been trying to divide this movement the entire time.
These people are not MAGA. They just hopped on the bandwagon a few months ago. They have no idea how Trump operates or what his motives are. They are driven by confirmation bias and their unhinged OBSESSION with Israel. They have convinced themselves there is a jew behind every blade of grass, and it has completely distorted their entire world view and blinds them from reality.
MAGA is not divided. We trust Trump to do what’s best for the American People. The Israel-obsessed anti-Trumpers are not part MAGA. The grifting clickbait influencers are not part of MAGA.
Their votes were valuable in the election, but we no longer need their cooperation or their approval. We just need them to witness.
Press Sec Leavitt gives us a quote from POTUS regarding the situation in Iran.
Trump says that there is still a “substantial chance of negotiations” with Iran in the near future.
To me, the situation is very obvious. Trump does not want to go to war, but is going to posture as heavily as possible to get Iran to submit and give up their nuclear program.
Trump has to make it seem like he is about to go scorched earth, to create a sense of urgency from Iran, to force them to capitulate. I’d even be willing to bet Trump and his admin are planting false leaks in the media that he is considering a strike, to make Iran think it’s coming.
Ultimately, Trump’s objective is a diplomatic solution with as little military action as possible, and he is going to give Iran every opportunity to submit before he goes to the last resort.
We are witnessing Trump negotiating, and he is trying to let us know not to panic.
You can panic if you’d like, but Trump’s posture and body language has been extremely encouraging.
He’s not worried at all.
He knows he ultimately holds all the cards, and that he is in control of the situation.
If you don’t trust him, that’s fine. In three years, you can vote for someone else, but until then, he’s your Commander in Chief, and we have no choice but to watch how it unfolds.
With that being said, there’s nobody I’d rather have in this position than Trump, and I trust him to do what’s best for the American People. He does not want another endless war.
You all might not like it or agree with it, but what we are witnessing is Trump negotiating on the world stage.
It reminds me of when Trump threatened Kim Jong Un with “fire and fury the likes of which the world has never seen”.
The next year Trump and KJU held a peace summit after the MSM said he would start nuclear war and WW3. Trump turned the entire situation around and accomplished something the world once believed to be impossible.
I’m not saying the current situation is exactly like North Korea, but it’s just a reminder that these situations are NEVER initially as they seem. It may have appeared liked we were on the brink of destruction, but really we were not.
Trump’s objective is not war, but as Commander in Chief of the most powerful military ever assembled, he is going to flex his muscle when he needs to, in order to achieve his desired result.
You might not like it, but this is the reality of the situation. It’s not all sunshine and rainbows in the real world.
SecDef Hegseth reiterates that Trump’s position has not changed.
Trump is still seeking a deal with Iran, and the US MIL will maintain their DEFENSIVE posture.
There are no indications that the US are planning for any offensive involvement.
Trump says that he gave Iran a 60 day deadline to make a deal, they said no, and “on the 61st you saw what happened”.
Here’s my take:
Trump has been standing in the way of Israel attacking Iran, giving them an opportunity to come to a diplomatic resolution without direct war. Iran refused Trump’s offer to abandon their nuclear program, so Trump stepped out of the way of Netanyahu.
Now Trump claims Iran want to make a deal.
Trump just proved to Iran he is not messing around, that he follows through on his threats, and that their survival relies on Trump’s protection. Trump essentially went full mafioso on Iran.
I’m not necessarily saying I agree with it, but that’s what I think happened.
Additionally, I don’t believe Trump has any plans of dragging the US into this conflict directly. He has no desire for a prolonged war involving US troops. All he wants is for Iran to submit, give up the nuclear program, and reach an economic deal.
If Iran choose to make a deal, Trump will step back in the way.
Trump at the G7 Summit in Canada calls out Obama and Trudeau for kicking Russia out of the organization in 2014.
All Putin wants is for Russia to be respected and given a seat at the table in what he calls a “multi-polar world”. Instead, the West isolated Russia and turned Ukraine into a NATO proxy to fight Russia.
One could argue a soft/cold WW3 started in 2014. That was the moment the CIA/State Dept overthrew and took control of Ukraine, and the West completely isolated Russia.
Everything we are witnessing now stems from the catastrophic foreign policy decisions during the Obama regime.
Trump says he is going to use US trade as a negotiating tool to attempt to get Iran and Israel to reach an agreement, similar to how he did with India/Pakistan.
There are many who are desperate to make it seem like Trump wants war, but he does not. He wants a deal and peace.
Trump once again claims the US “had nothing to do with the attack on Iran”.
Trump warns Iran not to attack US bases and continues to offer a diplomatic off-ramp.
Hopefully diplomacy prevails and Iran do not poke the bear.
Trump’s overall message was that he hopes there will be no need for more military action and hopes Iran choose to stand down.
Trump does not have any desire for long-term or even short-term conflict.
Trump has no desire for a forever war.
Trump will address the nation at 10pm tonight at the White House.
He is now calling for Iran to stand down and agree to end the conflict.
If we already control their skies and can destroy Iran’s nuclear facilities, they know there can be no path to victory.
Russia have already said they won’t be involved, China ain’t coming to the rescue, and Saudi Arabia are aligned with Trump. Nobody is coming to save Iran.
Let’s hope they come to their senses.
MUST WATCH!
Trump just posted a segment from Marc Theissen on Trump’s stance, and it sounds a lot like what I’ve been preaching.
Trump is applying maximum pressure to Iran, squeezing them until they capitulate and give up their nuclear ambitions.
Trump does not want war, which is why he is feinting and giving Iran one last chance to surrender. Trump’s preferred avenue is a diplomatic resolution. He is posturing and preparing forces to let them know he is not bluffing, but he will call off the dogs if Iran come to their senses and recognize they have no path to victory.
They can either give up their nuclear program the easy way, or the hard way, and Trump is going to give them every opportunity to choose the easy way.
The panicans keep searching for ways to justify their false understanding of the situation.
They will accuse literally anyone of being controlled by the Jews, before they consider the outside chance that they might be wrong.
If you would have asked the Libertarians and anti-Trumpers a couple days ago who they liked most in the Trump admin, Tulsi would have been at the top of the list. They just turned on her instantaneously, for something she said months ago, because it refutes their false reality.
Their Israel Derangement Syndrome has them all in a state of collective psychosis where facts don’t matter and everyone who disagrees with them is owned by the Jews.
We have to distance ourselves from these imbeciles.
Trump continues to hint that a diplomatic solution is possible.
He says “maybe it won’t be necessary” in regard to striking Iran’s nuclear facility.
Trump’s objective has ALWAYS been making a deal. He does not want war and will offer Iran a peaceful off-ramp if they capitulate.
The turncoats are accusing us of “blindly” supporting Trump.
No you retards. Y’all are blindly hating Trump.
Trump has earned our support over the last decade of fighting the Deep State, that y’all initially claimed didn’t exist.
Trump has proven to us time and again that his objective is diplomacy, and he will navigate these situations without getting us involved in another endless war.
Anyone doubting Trump of accusing him of wanting war, is doing so out of their own ignorance and/or bias.
It’s not my fault y’all don’t know how to analyze the situation properly, are easily manipulated, are highly emotional, and have had your brains scrambled by Israel Derangement Syndrome.
A whole bunch of the “influencer”-types just proved that they are unworthy of the responsibility that comes along with being the new media.
A shameful performance.
It’s very easy to tell who is new to information warfare.
This is exactly why cautioned everyone against listening to MSM anonymous sources “familiar with conversations” and the “assessment of unnamed Israeli officials”.
Unless it comes from Trump or one of his officials directly, it’s just an unverified report.
Trump clarifies his position once again, and it’s the same one he’s had for 20 years.
He does NOT want a long-term or short-term war.
He simply has a hard red line that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon, and he is going to use his power as POTUS to leverage that outcome.
I understand many are concerned about the potential for another endless war in the Middle East, but Trump is not George Bush and this is not 2003.
I understand what I am asking is too much, but can we just wait to see what happens before we abandon ship?
Me: “Let’s keep a level head and wait to see what happens.”
The rest of the internet:
I didn’t think I would have to clarify this, but this post in no way indicates that the US are about to strike Iran.
Israel just said they are going to strike Tehran again, so Trump said get out.
Just observe. Wait and see what happens.
The hysteria is out of control.
Emotions are high due to the whole Israel/Iran situation, and understandably so, but I strongly advise others to avoid getting hung up on every report.
There are all sorts of entities with different interests trying to manipulate our emotions for different reasons.
In times like these, I find it’s best to stay fluid and adaptable. We have to consider that we as the public might not have all the pieces to the puzzle yet. Disinformation is rampant and things are never as they initially seem. Truth is always the first casualty of war.
Try to stay emotionally disconnected. Focus on observation and discernment. Focus on the things we can control. Remain fluid to change your position as new information becomes available, and don’t pigeonhole yourself.
But most importantly, don’t panic. It never solves anything.
The calm mind thinks more clearly and will lead you to a better result.
Trump with one of his most important posts ever.
He highlights how the Dems are using illegal immigrants to “expand their voter base” and “cheat in elections.
This is why the Dems/MSM are throwing a fit over ICE deportations. Because it’s a direct blow to their power. Their ability to steal elections and retain office relies on the illegal vote and illegals in blue states offsetting the electoral college.
The Dems don’t actually think Trump is a king, and they don’t actually care about the well-being of the illegals. They just don’t want Trump to blow up their treasonous election fraud scheme.
This is also why the Dems don’t want the border secure and want voter-ID. Because they are cheating in elections.
I thought the “No Kings” protests would be a little more populated and thought tonight could be the beginning of a BLM-like “summer of love”.
So far it seems like a dud.
Mostly a bunch of old people.
The Dems’ ability to mobilize their foot soldiers appears to be waning.
On the bright side, Trump and Putin had a productive phone call today, and seem to be on the same page regarding the Israel/Iran situation.
Trump’s stance is that all these wars need to end.
Trump has no desire for the US to get entangled in another war.
