Hopefully they wait until Jan 22, 2021 and then they can do some personally damaging stuff to the Trump brand without worry of his retaliating.
Im surprised no enemies have sent people to deliberately start fires in CA during fire season. Seems like a fairly undetectable way to cause massive infrastructure damage to an incredibly important national resource
Why would that be undetectable? CalFire is quite effective at finding the cause of blazes.
There was speculation that al-Qaeda did this many years back. Probably fearmongering.
Gotta give Trump credit so far⌠He managed to assassinate Soleimani and appears to have gotten away with it. The worlds a better place without Soleimani and if that was it for Iranâs retaliation, Trump made the right call and we should all be glad he did.
Theres a likelihood theres more to come and heâs the idiot we all think he is whoâs going to totally mess up the region but if not, Trump did a great job.
How so?
Can you post some links or sources about this stuff? I tried a bit the other day but didnât find much that seemed reliable and / or detailed.
If you ignore the fact that Iran is now racing towards the bomb with no limitations, weâre getting kicked out of Iraq, we galvanized the Iranian citizens against us, and our allies think weâre even more crazy and unreliable than before, then yeah, Trump fuckinâ crushed it.

Iran wonât get to the bomb, a new deal will get cut, and Trump was already messing that up anyway. Pretty good chance we smooth things over in Iraq and donât end up leaving. Good point on the Iranian citizens.
@All-InFlynn He was evil, and he was the best they had. Now theyâve got their second best and a message has been sent that might reign in their operations a bit.
I think you have accurately identified why no one knows about it if it did already happen
Leaving aside the risible childishness of this analysis, what does it mean? He opposed US interests? Am I supposed to take that as a universal moral ill?
The fact that many right-wingers are utterly incapable of abandoning this puerile fantasy doesnât make it any less wrong. Thatâs not how things work. And thatâs ignoring the fact that this âmessageâ (âItâs dangerous to oppose US interestsâ) is pretty stale news anywhere you go in the Middle East.

Results based much?
Trump first started using the word âimminentâ when it was pointed out, by the UN, that Soleimaniâs assasination would amount to a war crime unless an attack was imminent.
For more on the timeline and why âimminentâ is Donnieâs new favourite word see below - Heâs covering his tracks to dodge the war crime charge
" A 2010 UN report on âtargeted killingsâ said there was a weighty body of scholarship that viewed the self-defence argument as having the right to use force âagainst a real and imminent threat when the necessity of that self-defence is instant, overwhelming, and leaving no choice of means, and no moment of deliberation.â
The initial US Department of Defense statement omitted the word âimminentâ and said the strike was aimed at deterring future Iranian attacks and that Iranâs top military leader Soleimani was âactively developing plans to attack American diplomats and service members in Iraq and throughout the regionâ.
In later statements, US officials including President Trump said Soleimani had been plotting âimminent attacksâ.

Would love to hear more exactly how Iran doesnât have the bomb in 5 years max. What is going to happen?
Pretty bold stance there, looks like you favour waxing Bush, Obama and Trump, too. Maybe Trump least of all, heâs surely got the least impressive body-count of the three. So far.
