Dozens of US warplanes are on their way to the Middle East immediately after Trump's speech

dude is so incredibly thirsty for the u.s. to enter into a war hes going to make it happen.

and all congress can do is sit and lick his balls, apparently.

Marco rubio said the us would not enter the war but trump is implying that he was behind the trikes and it's punishment for iran not agreeing to a deal.

Remember when his supporters were anti war and made a big deal about ukraine and how ukraine costed to much and would risk nuclear war ?

Trump tore up the nuclear deal saying he would have a better one, there is no better one he endedu p basically going back to the origina ldeal because iran said no because the ycan't trust him

the idea that trump is the master of deals might be one of his dumbest lies and that is saying a lot
- he knows that the failure in the unites states democracy is 'speed'. he can literally do whatever he wants as long as he does it faster than the courts can function.
  
  there is little stopping him from generating war.
Hmmm and what new powers and protections do US war time presidents get to have I wonder?

If the U.S. joins in it will only escalate the situation. Iran has repeatedly threatened to shut down the Strait of Hormuz, through which ~20% of the world's oil transits, but has not taken any such action so far. However, the more desperate it is, the more likely that will occur. While oil prices have jumped a bit since the start of the war, currently ~$72 a barrel, if Iran blockades the strait (and presumably mines it), we're looking at oil jumping to ~$130 per barrel. While the U.S. is currently teetering on the edge of a recession due to the tariffs, such an oil shock would almost certainly bring on a significant recession. Even more concerning is the potential for more escalation, and Trump has repeatedly shown interest in using nuclear weapons. I can easily envision a scenario where Trump thinks it's a good idea to nuke Tehran to serve as a lesson for the world that he's a big tough guy.

I genuinely think he's got that "someone told me I'm not allowed to do something so now it's my only thought and I will do it no matter what" mentality that 6 year Olds have.

Someone told him he's not allowed to use nuclear weapons, so he wants nothing more than to have an excuse.
Krasnov was told to raise the price of oil to over $100/ barrel. Mother Russia needs high oil prices to fund the war.

So, pressure for Iran to mine the strait is coming from both adversary and ally. Poor Ukraine.

Airstrikes won't be enough to wage war on the Middle East's largest world power. Iran has hostile terrain with most of the population in mountainous areas. The ground war will be a bloody mess.

I'm waiting for the media to start promoting this war. Because war means ratings, but also to reduce public opposition to the draft which will certainly be needed.
