Has the war with Iran started yet?

Hasn't it been more like millennia? :)

I get disgusted with this kind of inane trolling nonsense (which, I suppose, only encourages people like you to keep doing it, right, Shelly?)

Nobody in the U.S is pro-Iran. And nobody in the U.S. thought Solemani was a good person who didn't deserve to die a painful death. Yes, that's true even of the most liberal of liberals. Believe it or not.

Many people, however, are anti-war, and most people (Democrats and Republicans) did not want to ignite another war in the middle east. Thus, the hand-wringing about the strike against Solemani- nobody shed a tear when he was justifiably blown up, but the fear was it would de-stabilize the area, alienate our allies in the region, escalate tensions, and draw the US into a wider conflict in the region. It was the timing and the method of it rather than the fact that he was killed. See, I'm all for an intelligent discussion of things without all the inane trolling statements.

Nothing seems to upset a troll more than someone that's better at it.

It's not the liberals in question, it's the anti-American "progressive" Democrats that came unhinged at the loss of their hero and comrade their beloved Soleimani.

Then they moved to virtue signal their intent to protect Iran and beg for forgiveness like the cowardly anti-American scum they are.

They should rename themselves the Jerry party.

"Oh please Iran don't kill us!!"

Agreed. The timing could have been better. The the last several previous administrations should have killed him.

Oddly enough, I think if he had been killed by Bush and the US military during the operation in Iraq at the height of the insurrection (circa late 2000's) it might have blown over without escalating tensions with Iran, the way it is now. So yeah, you are probably right.

But please... lets stop the whole "Progressives hate America and love terrorists." Because frankly, that is pointless and really fucking childish.

I think you are projecting your thoughts and views on a wide range of GB posters who do not agree with you in the slightest. The escalating tensions in Iran will most likely lead to something closer to democracy than the shit pile they have now, and the US won't even have to lift a finger. :)

What "escalating tensions?" :confused:

Iran has been chanting death to America and killing Americans for all of my adult life. What's worse than them killing Americans for being American?

Going all the way back to Reagan we have been pretending that they're declared war on America is not actually a shooting War simply because they use proxies. Trump just put them on notice that from now on anything that has their fingerprints will result in US escalating. They're already ratchet it up as high as they can go. We're just answering violence with smarter violence.

Maybe he means blowing a commercial airliner out of the sky is an embarrassment the Iranian people won't accept of their government, but then I don't pretend to speak for any other posters. :)

Height of the insurrection in OIF was 2005-2006.

And if progressives don't hate America then why do they try to protect them??

Why do they they get so upset when we take one of them out???

Horrible white male cis scum killing poor poor brown Muslim terrorist who killed hundreds of Americans, how dare he strike such a "progressive" icon.

Meh...I think it's GREAT, Trump just made the (D)'s all go screeching in defense of their precious hero Soleimani and protect Iran on an election year.

On top of their total fumble with the impeachment?

If he can, Trump should air strike some more terrorist and known enemies of the USA so that we can watch the (D)'s do even more to protect their anti-American comrades.

There are plenty of people who are pro-Iranian based upon the old truism:
The enemy of my enemy is my friend...
