We wouldn't win a war with Iran right now.
Nonsense. Unless you think someone else will come to the aid of Iran.

I'm worried about Deac89 he seems to be pretty paranoid and unhinged.
That's interesting because I just saw two people on CNN proclaim we would crush them. But a war with anyone would suck and should be avoided.
ha I'm not paranoid what did i mention that showed paranoia or unhinged

Half of the United States hates the president and you have hundreds of thousands of protesters already in the streets. Iran could simply follow the Iraq insurgency gameplan and wait until the America populace forces a pull out.
I doubt Trump would follow the gameplan of recent presidents. Could see a heavy reliance on guided missiles, carpet bombing, and if that doesn't bring them to their knees, nuclear weapons.
Why would we go to war with Iran period? What in the world is different about US-Iran relations over the last year? The deal was pretty innocuous and seemingly a good deal for everyone involved.
Again, the issue is that most Americans don't know a damn thing about Iran and are just spouting off polarized opinions based on the Middle East at large and a nebulous threat of "nuclear proliferation."

So massive war crimes. Good strategy.
Jesus Christ.
You doubt it? Seriously? How the fuck are you folks so oblivious to who Trump is? You were just posting about how unstable he is and how he seems to be legitimately crazy.
Just to follow up on my last post, I would argue that of most of the Middle East actors Iran is one of the most rational. Not rational in a subjective American sense, but rational in the political science "a nation in Iran's position does what you would expect a nation in Iran's position to do" which is sabre rattling about potential nuclear power while trying to maintain its standing in the region in light of the decline of the other hegemon that balanced it out over the past couple decades (Iraq - due to American incompetence and ridiculous military involvement).
I get the argument for war in other countries to some degree. As to Iran, I'm totally baffled by the hawkish stance from anyone. People advocating for military involvement in Iran mostly come off as foreign affairs neophytes with no real grasp of the region or Iran's history (particular vis-a-vis the West and America's specific involvement).

He isn't a dictator. If he actually tried launching a war of aggression using nuclear weapons, he would be impeached and stand trial for his crimes.
This is the guy you wanted over the "War-monger" Clinton.
Nice choice, Bobby. A+ cognitive skills.
