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!

Geezer's proper thick. That's all he's proving.
Not for me, I’d rather the U.K. didn’t get involved at all.

Trump has been very clear on how he views the ‘special relationship’ and it’s completely one sided.
I've heard that before, I think it was Hugh Grant playing the Prime Minister.

No, they’ll get the Kurds to help and then leave them high and dry again when it suits.

The Shah was reasonably helpful to the west so was tolerated 
Better prospect than some beardy religious fanatic 
Hopefully one day the people of Iran can live a normal free life especially the women who are terrorised by said beardy cunts 

Has Trump decided how he gets out of this war now that he has got into it?
Then he can add it to his list of wars he has ended
So much for America first & no more foreign wars

I thought the UK and the rest of NATO weren't needed? Mind you, that was a few weeks ago, so he's probably forgotten that statement.

As far as our 'society collapsing', agreed that the country would be in a much better state, if Britain didn't pander to the ideals of Woke (cheers for that particular import, the US), along with obesity and stupidity (thanks again).

There is obviously no plan beyond bomb the bastards and see what happens.
Netanyahu must be delighted..

They can and it's been clear for an age. They cannot acquire nuclear weapons and they've not only come very close to acquiring them last summer, they were cracking on with their ambitions once more, as well as stockpile a shitload of missiles so to prevent anyone from stopping them completing their mission. This was unavoidable and all of Irans doing determined to get hold of a nuclear weapon.

Doing the Arabs work for them , Trump don't hate all Muslims especially the ones with oil and invest billions in the west , in fact most in the west turn a blind eye to them in the world of hypocrisy . Ask Yemen how they feel about the Yanks Bombing them for the Saudis .

100m sounds cheap to commit genocide and seize Gaza 
While Israel is a nuclear armed power and their opponents are not, Israel will do pretty much what they like.

Trump : This is not Winston Churchill we are dealing with

Unfortunately the US President is JFK after a drive down Dealey Plaza or Abraham Lincoln after a night at the theatre
