If Iran keeps trying to build nuclear weapons, it will be turned into a failed state. It will look like Sudan or Haiti within a decade.

America sometimes gets in a bind? No, America always gets in a bind. What is the last war they alone decisively won? And how many times have their allies helped them out.

Trump has a short attention span. 3 or 4 days normal. But this Iran thing is taxing his brain like never before. Once in a while he goes back to Greenland. Strange he never goes back to New York city his home town.

Why worry about it? Its not your war. Not even worth moral support. So, why sweat over it?

A terrorist being killed is not an assassination. It is justice.

Shut down power and food. That will wake them up.

Well this time we aren't losing as many Servicemen and women. If NATO had a pair this conflict may well have been over by now. Almost like the UK, Dutch and French Oil interests have benefited from Middle East instability( & terrorism) since 1908. Hell the Brits even got us involved with the Shah. We are cleaning it up by ourselves I guess.

These people don't know 💩. It's easy to complain about what the US does with its military but if any of these countries needed help the US President would be the first person they tried to contact because they couldn't fight off a strong cold alone.

We know how to make it successful but we have to balance that with trying to placate all of our useless and regarded “allies”. 😂

"Experts" that don't understand President Trump, should keep their anti-American prejudice in check.

I never cease to be amazed by those who underestimate Trump. As hard as I try, I can never fully understand what Trump is thinking, which seriously works to his advantage when dealing with the likes of the Islamofascist Republic of Iran. To say Trump has painted himself into a corner is utter nonsense. Give it time. Something will happen that Trump will be able to exploit and to take advantage of in this war. These talking heads out themselves as having mild, to moderate, to severe, TDS and aren’t worth the airtime they are given. Really need to source a little better class of analyst. And, the Dardanelles, the Strait of Gallipoli, are not international waters. Not exactly an apples to apples comparison to the Strait of Hormuz. Should the toll be placed on ships passing through by Turkey? It’d be up to the countries affected to take it up with them.

you don't make deals with terrorists. They have been terrorizing the awesome people of Iran for a long time. Iran used to be a beautiful place, like venezuela was and cuba once was
