MS NOW just reported that the new Ayatollah has released his first message,

[allegorical oracle]

saying (my paraphrasing) that Iran will continue to avenge their martyrs -- including the school children who were killed. Discussion among the show's hosts indicate we may suffer a long-term closure of the Straits of Hormuz.

1. He also wants reparations from the US and Israel for the bombing.

This won't be over for a very long time.

Anyone with any brains knew it would be a disaster to go to war with Iran.

Krasnov didn't get his advice from our military intelligence, he got it from Bibi, his son-in-law, Kegsbreath, a hedge fund manager.

[Omnipresent]

3. It's time for impeachment and time to stop funding Israel.

We don’t need an ally that is nothing but a loose cannon.

[Volaris]

11. I dont have a problem funding israel. But not one more fucking penny till Bibi's in a cell where he belongs,

I'd also be inclined to matching funds to rebuild Gaza, and if Israel doesn't like THAT, they can put Bibi in a cell for free.

2. Regime change is probably off the table

The civilian casualties are causing Iranians to rally around the regime. We should have had someone identified for Iranians to rally around. Instead, Trump and Bibi killed everyone but the most radical. Demanding unconditional surrender was phenomenally stupid. It terrifies the regime and the people and gives them nothing to lose by fighting.

Gross incompetence and stupidity by this Administration to get us to this point. Stupid people shouldn’t have guns.

14. I don't think after our aggression that

we could have chosen anyone they would have rallied around. We focus on those who wanted the regime gone, but there is also a segment that didn’t. I heard an analyst say that there has never in history been regime change after air alone.

4. The only thing Trump wants is Iran's resources. Regime change means nothing to him.

He wants to destroy and scare countries into handing him everything.

I can't blame him for thinking this way I guess.
Everyone in the US rolled over for him.
Courts, congress, institutions, billionaires, etc etc.
Venezuela handed him what he wanted.
All the tariff countries complied.

What Trump wants, Trump gets.

5. And the elections cancelled

[Irish_Dem]

6. If Trump and the GOP is polling badly, yes.

At least 50/50 that Trump will steal the elections again.

[yardwork]

7. So much winning.

[surfered]

8. How about we give them Trump, Hegseth, and Rubio in exchange for opening the Strait of Hormuz?

[ScratchCat]

9. The missel hitting the school guarantees attacks both abroad and at home

I wish I was going to be wrong, but I doubt I am.

Every whackdoodle jihadist and his brother are going to be standing in line to strap on a bomb and get revenge for the deaths of those kids. The likelihood of an attack on US soil is near 100%. There is no way they are letting that go.

[Dawson Leery]

10. It is time to let Israel (and the Evangelicals) go.

[leftstreet]

12. We need to tell them the Rapture happened

but sadly they were left behind

13. First laugh of the day! -eom
