US Politics Thread
Seems like the main politics thread is becoming a Yankee-Doodle Trump-fest, so maybe scope here to split them out.
Will see if this one gains any traction ..if it does will move over a few of the million posts from our two protagonists from the other thread.
Yee-haaa!

Re: US Politics Thread
Why haven’t you joined up in Iran or the Ukraine? It’s very easy to act all tough from back home in your dumpster.

Exactly you div.
The people in Iran have gained nothing from this.
Same regime but now a country with it’s infrastructure bombed to shit.

Many that used to live there but fled because of the Regime have also been part of these widespread celebrations globally, not just the younger generation that haven't.
It’s easy to celebrate when you’re not living there. Those still there have seen the infrastructure of their country destroyed but with no regime change.
It's only been 12 days, it took God 6 days to create the world so cut him a bit of slack.

And there are positives that are coming from this war. I take it that you don't give him any credit during his time as President.
As for Starmer, he gets plenty of credit for improving the NHS, much needed planning reform, rise to national minimum wage, supporting Ukraine, getting trade deal with India and the US, childcare and education.There are no positives from this war, and longer term it’ll be worse.

Does anyone force you to give credit to Starmer for something completely unrelated when you criticise him?

If you like.
But then the deaths of 1500 civilians, including school kids is on him. As is the obliteration of Irans infrastructure including schools, hospitals and energy. As is the death and injury of any US servicemen. And the economic hardship this is causing and will cause globally.

Is it fair to say that Trump doesn't get the credit for taking out the 47 commanders in Iran when given the go-ahead to achieve it

You on the other hand clearly support Putin and Iran
If your tiny brain cannot comprehend simple things that really isn’t my problem.
Not wanting to join an unwinnable war doesn’t automatically mean you’re pro the other side.
Maybe try getting your 9 year old Cambodian girlfriend to explain this to you.

Qatar and Iran were close, I was working in Qatar in 2027 when the Saudis and the rest of the UAE placed and embargo on them and much of the food came from Iran

The Iranian police chief said that any anti regime protesters would be treated like the enemy, The dislike for the Kurds is not just the ruling class its the normal dislike of the nationalists for the biggest minority

You’re as dumb as a rock joyo.
The whole world knows it, and yet every country aside from Israel refused to join in.
No word on the orange rapist taking sanctions off Russian oil then? Course not, sticking to your own as always.

No, the solution is to crush the Iranian Regime from bullying other Countries by neutering them badly. The one's pissing those off in the Region is the Iranian Regime showing their true colours by lashing out indiscriminately (their modus operandi) at neighbour states. It's the Yanks that neighbours like Qatar are thanking for offering. Right I'm having to raise the White flag for now as Madrid just scored a 5th!🏳
Qatar, Saudi and UAE are all pissed that Trump started this. They know what Iran is like, but had coexisted with them reasonably well. Now their tourism is in bits as is the reputation as a safe haven.
Thats why they are in his ear telling him to stop.
The Iranian regime still stands and now with an apparent harder line leader with a dead father to avenge.
