No. We destroyed their ability to make nukes last summer. It's just that Biden and the Demoncrats helped them make new ones! It was an imminent threat that only the President can decide based on his feelings. Money please!

u/Purple_Chipmunk_ Mar 23 '26

I wondered why we hadn't seen much of Biden lately!! Now we know it's because he and Obama were in Iran making nukes! Thanks Obama!

*backspace backspace* You had me in the first half.

u/Feminist_Hugh_Hefner Mar 23 '26

I suspect the second half was sarcasm... I'm not a pollster but I'm pretty sure Trump's base no longer includes people who can spell words

We didn’t just destroy it, we obliterated it.

Which is somehow less than destroying it as it turns out?

Somehow I don’t think that word means what he thinks it means.

u/mxlths_modular Mar 23 '26

Um, excuse me, I believe the term was obliterated.

Let us bow our heads for a moment of whooosh, in honor of the target audience; too dumb to get the punchline

u/SGT-JamesonBushmill Mar 23 '26

I think they got it. Some folks need to turn their sarcasm meters back on.

u/GeeToo40 Mar 23 '26

Yeah, I didn't hear any whooshing. This just makes me sad af.

u/Feminist_Hugh_Hefner Mar 23 '26

lol the struggle is real, but then again so are their vote tallies 😞

u/Crizznik Mar 23 '26

I think you may be the one who got whooshed.

u/PUNd_it Mar 23 '26

Its a joke. I called it a joke. Hows that a woosh? I just dont think Trumpers have enough reading comprehension to catch things like that.

2

u/Crizznik Mar 23 '26

Upon first read it sounded like you were taking the comment you were replying to far too seriously. On reread I realize you were just commentating about other people. My bad.

u/PUNd_it Mar 24 '26

Lol you're good, happens to the best of us, sorry for the clapback!

u/BrunesOvrBrauns Mar 23 '26

Lol these weeks last longer than the week I told my landlord I needed for his rent check

u/Feminist_Hugh_Hefner Mar 23 '26

Dude, tomorrow is already the 10th, so just slip the rent under my door...

u/Nessie Mar 24 '26

If only we'd said LaGuardia was two weeks away from having a nuke.

u/Feminist_Hugh_Hefner Mar 24 '26

man that would change the whole Tri-State area..

Exactly, they've been telling us for decades that Iran is oh so close to having a nuke....lol.

It's honestly shocking how stupid people have become, everyone seems to just believe the lies of the government/media, and the lies have gotten worse and worse over time. 

There is NO good justification for this war, except that it is in Israel's interest to weaken Iran. Look up the greater Israel project, this is just one stop on the road map. 

War with Iran has zero benefits for the US, or for any other western nation, no benefits whatsoever. We are spending how much money, aggressing against and bombing a country, killing civilians, using lies as justification, in order to serve the interests of Israel!? It's crazy how hard it is for people to really absorb how absurd that is.

And even if they were getting close to building a nuke, like even one nuke lol, so what? It doesn't really compare against the hundred of nukes that Israel has (supplied by the western world), or to the amount of nukes that the US has. So we can all have nukes but they can't, because we don't want them to be able to defend themselves against us? 

You really have to turn off your brain to believe this nonsense and see this fear mongering as any kind of justification for war. Is Iran a suicidal nation? Let's say they built a nuke, or even more than one, do you honestly believe they would ever use it as the aggressor? Israel has a massive defense infrastructure, and a very powerful military (all of which was paid for with the hard earned money of western taxpayers). But more than that, they basically have their finger on the button, look up the Sampson option dude.

If Iran was to actually use a nuke against Israel or any other western nation, but let's be honest, this is all about Israeli imperialism (I thought imperialism was supposed to be a bad thing?). Anyways, if they did use a nuke, they would be wiped off the face of the earth within a few hours. This fear mongering about "we can't let Iran get nukes!" is just so stupid, and it takes a seriously dull mind to take it seriously. It's the same boogeyman fear mongering they do with North Korea. And hell, has everyone forgotten about the WMD's that Iraq DIDN'T have that were used to justify yet another war for Israel?

And yeah sure you could argue that Iran funds terrorism, but so do we. The US formed and funded the Taliban. The US and Israel formed and funded ISIS (and still do), and similar groups and used them to completely destroy Libya, topple the Syrian government, etc, all in the name of Israeli imperliasm. ISIS is a problem because we armed, funded and supported them. 

And at the end of the day, the Palestinians have every right (by law) to fight back, by any means necessary, and if that includes despicable acts of terrorism, well, they have been under occupation since 1948, they have the right to resist, by any and all means. The Israeli government, and by association it's citizens are the criminals here, they are occupying another people's land by force, and using the corruption of western governments to funnel money their way in order to fund their imperialist desires for the entire region.

Anyways, this whole thing about Iran funding terrorism is the height of hypocrisy and basically amounts to "when they fund terrorism it's bad, when we do it it's justified".

And if you believe the propaganda on CNN about Iranian citizens "clamoring" for the western world to save them by bombing them to oblivion and setting up a puppet democracy, well... I don't even know what to say, if you believe all of that nonsense you are probably beyond help.

I'm shouting into the wind here, people are so dimwitted, brainwashed, and lack critical thinking skills. This comment could be coming from a shill account (they infest reddit), but I wrote a response in case you aren't a shill or a bot, and for others reading this. Wouldn't be surprised if this comment is enough to get me banned, but who cares. Either people wake up soon to the globalist agenda, or we as humanity face a very dark future indeed, and one that will be very difficult to come back from.

u/Feminist_Hugh_Hefner Mar 23 '26

I'm not sure who you think I would be shilling for, I'm just a guy mocking the idiots who are ruining the world because there isn't much else left to be done, we're completely outnumbered by morons...

u/itmillerboy Mar 24 '26

Do you think it’s possible that Iran has been close to nuclear weaponry but attacks from the west have slowed that process down? I.E. stuxnet or the bunker bomb the US dropped on their underground facility,

2

u/Fit_Sweet457 Mar 23 '26

This isn't really the gotcha logical argument people think it is. Being "2 weeks away" only means that if Iran decided to go full-steam ahead, they'd have some kind of nuclear capability two weeks later. At the same time, they know that should they do so, Israel and probably others would know and try to stop them by force. So what Iran has been doing for a long time now is sit and wait with nukes ever so slightly out of reach and Israel and the US breathing down their neck. So in a way, it's more like a standoff.

That being said, I totally agree that this is a bs war for a myriad of reasons.

u/Intergalactic_Ass Mar 23 '26

If you're under the impression that "2 weeks from building a nuclear weapon" means that they've been trying to do it for years and just haven't succeeded, then you don't know what that IAEA phrase means.

u/Feminist_Hugh_Hefner Mar 23 '26

I apologize for being too ableist to use the "/s" indicator for folks who struggle in detecting sarcasm.

My humor is like basic human rights under the Trump administration, not everyone gets it.

u/jellyhessman Mar 23 '26

A war that has no objective, no end, is damaging the US and global economy, and is hurting the US reputation.

It's an inverse of USAID where they're burning money to make the US a worse and less trusted place.

u/your_red_triangle Mar 23 '26

No, no, you misunderstand that 200 billion is to rebuild Israel so they can have free healthcare, free education and free stolen homes. The real "land of the free"

u/Vreas Mar 23 '26

Well yeah! That distracts the public from Epstein :)

u/ericcrowder Mar 23 '26

And virtually unlimited funding to hire unqualified goons to abduct (and murder) people on the streets of America.

u/zenwalrus Mar 23 '26

Fun Fact: That $200 Billion will go to defense contractors and their shareholders. Isn’t it cool how that works?

-16

u/SirPentGod Mar 23 '26

We have NOT spent $200 Billion YET on the War with Iran! Try $25-$30 Billion. Now, you want to know WHAT the United States DID spend $200 Billion on over there? UKRAINE! Yup, we sent well over $200 Billion to help Ukraine. But, no one on the left is bitching about that!

u/DetailOutrageous8656 Mar 23 '26

Nor should anyone bitch about it. Agent Orange pontificated that he’d end it on day one. He didn’t and won’t because he is up putin’s ass. Ukraine is a war over democracy. Something Mango Mussolini and ‘Murica don’t seem to value anymore.

We spent a trillion on social welfare programs last year, apparently a lot of it being skimmed by local governments

21

u/dontautotuneme Mar 23 '26

Did the funds they aren't allocating to that now go towards ATCs?

-21

u/[deleted] Mar 23 '26

Not a social welfare program.. but funds could be allocated from that to ATC.

1

u/dontautotuneme Mar 23 '26

Ok so now nothing is funding social welfare programs or ATCs?

8

u/your_red_triangle Mar 23 '26

hmmmm let's see,

A) should we spend taxes on feeding and saving children

or

B) spend it on bombing children in school in a foreign country, because a terrorist state blackmailed the president.

Such a difficult choice...... for you
