It’s really, really strange, he simply doesn’t have a clue does he about how the world works? I blame too many ‘yes men/women'

President Donald Trump, in a video posted on Truth Social, has confirmed that the U.S. has begun “major combat operations in Iran." He said the objective of the operation is to “defend the American people by eliminating imminent threats from the Iranian regime.”

Re: President Trump 2.0
Take his 'peace' prize away. He seems way too eager to attack lately.

He’s framing this as a “preemptive attack” when the entire purpose is to provoke a response from Iran in order to justify ongoing and more extensive strikes…

Re: President Trump 2.0
From what I've read, this could be a negotiating tactic by the Americans as talls are scheduled for Thursday. The meesage being, start negotiating!
One reason given for this was that the strikes were conducted in broad daylight and were not top military targets. A military-led operation would usually be under the cover of darkness and at military bases.

Very unlikely, as this "surprise attack" has been in the very visible offing for the last week or so, give the senior people lots of time to get dispersed to different secure sites.
If the aim is to decapitate the Iranian leadership, it would have to be along the lines of the Reagan ‘86 surprise bombing of Libya (Operation El Dorado Canyon).

I don't make the strategy. I hope that Iran (regime) is offed - and any reasonable person would agree.

So we’re deciding on if a regime is decent or not based on if they hold democratic elections ?
