  1. Clearly America does not exist. What we live in is the United States of Israel where American tax payers are forced to pay for all of Israel’s stupid wars against the will of the American people who are totally against them.

  2. All of these brainwashed people in the comments taking Iran's side in this really are just Useful idiots, Regurgitating propaganda that tries to hide behind "Arguments of Morality/ or what's supposedly better for the US" and all of those arguments just happen to align with Iran's wet dreams.

  3. Democrats put Biden/Harris in the white house to fund Iran and allow them to make billions so the can fund terror and give Hamas the green light to do what they do, Then Democrats act like they are clueless as to how we got here, it's literally your fault, everyone of you who voted for Biden'/Harris NEW WARS, INFLATION, and OPEN BORDERS.. look in the mirror when you see people dying in Ukraine and Gaza. Russia/Iran did not and could not pull this #!%^# under Trump.

  4. America just keeps doing EVERYTHING for Zionist Israel—even though many Americans want to remain totally NEUTRAL! Of course, Iran wants to attack Israel for its all too common pastime of assassinations. What is wrong with America? Israel started this attack on Iran, so America should protect itself; the Israelis can fight THEIR OWN WARS! Without us! 100,000 people have died from opioids in America in the past 12 months, but we just send more money for more deaths, destruction, and chaos! This is MADNESS! Israel must fight its OWN WARS!

  5. From domestic violence, international relations including world order, inflation, immigration, gun control, energy policy and drug infestation, the U.S. is in turmoil. Whether one is Democrat, Republican or independent, poor leadership or the lack of leadership is the cause of this country’s plunge into the abyss of depravity.

    Partisan politics is the culprit. When will the governing bodies of the U.S. start to act as Americans rather than Democrats and Republicans?

  6. “And We warned the Children of Israel in the Scripture, “You will certainly cause corruption in the land twice, and you will become extremely arrogant.”

    When the first of the two warnings would come to pass, We would send against you some of Our servants of great might, who would ravage your homes. This would be a warning fulfilled.

    Then ˹after your repentance˺ We would give you the upper hand over them and aid you with wealth and offspring, causing you to outnumber them.

    If you act rightly, it is for your own good, but if you do wrong, it is to your own loss. “And when the second warning would come to pass, your enemies would ˹be left to˺ totally disgrace you and enter that place of worship as they entered it the first time, and utterly destroy whatever would fall into their hands. “ Al Quran(Surah Bani Israel ,Verse:4-7)

  7. i strongly agree with this move of US…I believe the best defense is being offensive . As i read through the comments some said stay home and protect our homeland, it is like saying let the base-hitter reach 1st and 3rd base and wait and protect the homebase. if so then its to late- 9-11 was like that. We waited too long and we failed to protect Home.
