    NATO acted? Yeah, they **** the bed and then we had to clean it up on U.S. taxpayer's dime. There's a reason why the U.S. now has a military base in Kosovo.

    In NATO history only one Nation called for help: USA.
    And we did help. Germany send thousands of soldiers to Afghanistan. We stood by your side and i have no doubts you would do same for us. But who knows.

    This is the result of 8 years of democratic appeasement in the middle east.

    we let so many allies fall and supported radical Islamic terrorists like the Iranian government!

    you gotta spank the bad kids..

    You know no shame. Dude there is always a red line. We can disagree in politics. Dislike each other countries, even so we are allied.

    But there should always be respect for each other. When you lose respect, you lose your own honor.

    When 911 happened, Germany was in shock. We did stand by your side. We send help, secret service and also soldiers. In Afghanistan
    we lost soldiers.

    There are things i believe that in evry discussion should not be done.

    I want us out of the ME. But unless tulsi gets elected this will not happen.

    The pnac scheme is alive and well. They want iran to escalate

    And they wont be happy until we destroy iran. And if anyone thinks the US cannot do that they are an idiot.

    But it will be a very costly war in treasure and lives. And not worth it. And it will show what deindustrialization has done to the US.

    Of course they will. This was a very provocative act..........with questionable motives and timing. (no matter the spin you get from the Trump regime)

    They are trying to make it a defensive action........while it is an offensive action........( REALITY )

    the added issue is that one cannot believe a word of what the Trump regime says. And the world knows this......and factors it in......The Trump regime has no credibility.

    "Protect itself"
    in this case its the shooting down of a drone in the gulf; sowing mines in the gulf;
    firing missiles at Saudi oil refineries; arming the Houthis, Syrians, Lebanese and
    Iraqi radicals; sending 140,000 missiles to Lebanon in violation of the UN; firing
    missiles into Israel; killing Iranian dissidents; funding terror groups, and refining
    uranium - which will compel Egypt, Turkey and Arabia to go nuclear overnight -
    destroying the nuclear non-proliferation treaty which protects us all.

    The only problem is that we fight an endless war ---- against an endless enemy.
    There's only surrender, on our part. The problem is, if we give in to a nuclear
    Islamic world which is attacking our allies and sabotaging our interests - do we
    become Shiah or do we become Sunni? Either way the other will still fight us.

    It was in Iranian airspace.

    Lacks prove

    lacks prove and it isn't arming Iraqi radicals but arming groups that fights ISIS. And Israel violates the UN constantly... so?

    never did

    Lacks prove

    Not illegal

    The US broke the deal.

    You are laying the burden of proof on the West for Iranian behavior.
    Most of these things Iran itself admits to. As for the nuclear deal -
    this was made by Obama and it's widely felt to be a bad deal as it
    gives Iran the option of building a nuclear weapon at a later date.
    This means Egypt, Turkey and Arabia go nuclear overnight as they
    fear Iran.

    Hardly. And indeed. Accusations do not fly if you can prove a thing.

    That wasn't Obama's deal and it's widely considered to be a good deal.
    And since the US broke the deal it does mean as of late Iran can do whatever.

    It's both defensive and offensive. Defensive in the sense that this man was an enemy combatant, and the Authorization for war(2001) still applies. I find it laughable for Democrats to go: "Is it legal?" Yes, you SIGNED IT all those years ago. If Democrats could pay attention to reality, and less to "Impeach 45", they might be able to recognize the situations on the ground.

    Offensive in the sense that in addition to this bastard's work on radical jihad, he was also officially a part of the Iranian military. So this is an unprecedented escalation. Trump/Pompeo are hoping this will 'scare' the Iranians, but I'm afraid it will do the opposite.

    The "do whatever" in this case is Iran having the nuke and threatening
    to hit Israel. And of course, it will have to threaten Saudi Arabia, the
    gulf states, Egypt and Turkey as well. So these nations no longer have
    any reason NOT to be non-nuclear. And after that I suppose the rest
    will be history - sad history.

    Than, let those who depend on mid east oil do something about it instead of the US always getting involved.
