Theres a part of me that thinks Trump would get 25d if he tried to start a ground war in Iran. But Ive already been disastrously wrong about the depths Republicans will sink to to secure their hold on autocratic power.

(15,782 posts)the cold hard fact is that the majority of Americans have no problem taking out Iran's nuclear weapons program, as does the rest of the ME, letting Iran develop a nuclear weapon would be a historical disaster for Israel and the world.
