Yeah I'm just feeling a little bit excitable I think. The fact that things have escalated so quickly from the other day is pretty disconcerting To be clear I didn't mean Iran baiting the US to kill their top guy but some kind of lesser response. I realize that they like to talk poo poo but tweeting about how President Trump can't respond to your aggression seems like such an obvious mistake. Goading someone as petty as Trump without wanting him to respond doesn't make much sense. Kawasaki Nun fucked around with this message at 22:37 on Jan 3, 2020 |

Kawasaki Nun posted:Iran's actions + tweets were all pretty bombastic, and they know Trump is an idiot. How likely is it that they were attempting to bait us into kicking things off? Considering the tweets/etc. were from 2018 to early 2019, they probably weren't much of a factor.

I know exactly what a US/Iran war would look like. You'd fly your awesome planes over for 6 months and they'd have buried every single thing and you'd have nothing to bomb. And they'd blow up every embassy in the western world, because why the gently caress not. About 12 months later we'd all decide it was a horrible mistake. Because we're all literally that stupid.

And suddenly in a few years an Iranian person will commit an act of terror and people will say “wow I can’t believe it why do they hate our freedom” And then refugees and immigrants* will get thrown into cages at a higher rate *immigrant will henceforth be known as “anyone not white”

How hard do you think Trump was getting to say he "terminated" those guys? Like, I can totally believe that fat orange fucker has been waiting almost four years to drop that.

I have a legit question that I can't sort out myself. If we really wanted to send a signal, why didn't we just snatch him up? He wasn't travelling incognito or anything, and it's not like we don't have dudes who specialize is snatching dudes from cars right there. Like, if we really wanted to gently caress Iran, wouldn't capturing him be a better long term strategy? I mean, for the thought exercise, pretend there is one, and it wasn't drawn on a map with Sharpie.

I.e. probably just as dumb and bad. You can't just helicopter a general out of a country, it isn't going to go well. The local military suddenly have a reason to fire all their yearly budget of rounds off in your direction. e: You basically die at that point.

I would imagine they could have had him on a bird and out of the country in 30 minutes from hit. It wouldn't need SSE- interdict, kill the guards, snatch the dudes- your at the airport- throw that gently caress on a 60, fly them to a waiting aircraft- boom. I'm sure it wouldn't be so simple and quick, but if you are going to risk a massive escalation, why not make it worth it in the long term? Again. Maybe I'm just dumb- I just can't imagine this was a better strategic course of action than capturing him.

Looks like the post-hoc justification talking points are out. Everyone in the right wing propaganda machine is vomiting the phrase "imminent attack", so someone sent that out in an email somewhere.
