Now we have put Iran in that position and what they would not have done in the past, they may well try to do in the future.
We are facing the results of bombs over diplomacy and its long-term consequences. We have demonstrated that the adversary has nothing to gain through restraint.
We have sent the wrong message to the world, something to be expected given we have put the wrong person in charge.
It will take decades to recover, if at all. The world is at greater risk, not less.

It will take decades for the world’s leader of terrorism to recover if ever–we are at greater risk because funding for Hamas and Hezbollah and other terror groups could well be ending??? Someone is smoking wacky weed!
these thugs also support terror cells in Syria as well as providing them with drones,, artillery, and armored vehicles–isn’t their overall goal to wipe Israel off the face of the Middle East map?–State Dept. tells us they fund terror groups in Bahrain and Yemen and numerous other places worldwide.
Albania–the Netherlands–and Belgium have expelled and in some cases arrested Iranian government officials involved in terrorist plots.
the sooner this rogue nation is completely flattened the safer the world will be–Quinn’s hatred for Trump makes Trump the enemy and poor Iran is nothing but a innocent animal mistreated by the hunter–gays/lesbians as fodder for death squads oh, sorry, they throw them off roofs–and didn’t they recently subdue 20,000+ protestors by killing them– yikes!!! “the enemy of my enemy is my friend”.
How about a defense of the Castro boys Quinn? the lefties have some strange friends–maybe you missed Code Pink on their journey in Havana yesterday encouraging us to leave those folks alone–they love being repressed with little or no food and rolling blackouts.
Those lefties are way out there sort of like the guy in Texas who tells us there are 5 or 6 genders and is running for Senate–you guessed it– as a socialist Democrat.

So naive. So lack of understanding of their theological mindset. We aren’t destroying, we are providing incentive for revenge. Remember we are dealing with zealots willing to blow themselves up.

yes, just so naïve–we are so lucky to have your wisdom–I am thinking back a few years–so maybe this will be like Germany and Japan where devastation didn’t lead to revenge–in Germany occupation by the allies–maybe Japan had less in the way of U.S. soldiers–can’t see that happening in today’s world.
using your thinking this terrorist regime would simply grow and spread its money to groups intent on destroying Israel and the U.S..

You see no difference, especially who attacked who and then the Marshall plan? I guess we might have a plan for our money to rebuild Iran or was that Gaza? No doubt Trump has a plan as he always does.

rebuilding Gaza without the destruction of Hamas is tricky as they will have tunnels no doubt in schools and hospitals or some such way to kill as many Jews as possible–Marshall plan covered Europe not Japan although they got substantial financial aid administered by Gen. MacArthur and a separate agency.
You think leaving Iran to its own destiny would usher in a more peaceful Middle East?–they now have the largest # of ballistic missiles in the Middle East–2,000 was a # I read–many capable of hitting European cities.
if in 1938 we knew Hitler’s plans and extent of military arsenal should we have taken them out? weakness only encourages the strong–this is not pretty and should have been done differently with more information to us and consulting with allies–but if Iran is decimated and missiles are destroyed in my opinion it is worth it.

I don’t think this is anything new. Didn’t we spend years in Afghanistan? Iraq? Didn’t we lose troops in a shootout in Mogadishu? Lebanon cost a lot of Marines and some troops died in the Dominican Republic in the 1960s and of course we were after Bin Laden in Pakistan and troops were in Grenada. I was too young to go to Korea back in the day but my older brother went. Foreign intervention you say? When has it ever stopped.
