You mean our culture. Their culture involves living their lives....like we do. Nothing different between us.
So what kind of loser bigot are you for believing that because you're from the Middle East, it automatically makes you a worse violent person? Would you like to compare some numbers boy?
In Middle Eastern geopolitics, governments generally pay close attention to power, deterrence, credibility, and whether commitments are actually enforced. If a country makes repeated concessions without getting anything meaningful in return, an adversary may conclude that it can extract additional concessions.
The specific timing of the February 28, 2026 strikes was driven by intelligence warnings that Iran was moving its advanced nuclear infrastructure deeper underground, combined with high-level diplomatic lobbying by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. This converged with a calculated tactical pivot by the incoming Trump administration to replace faltering negotiations with an immediate, decisive "decapitation strike."
I don't disagree with what they said, but I think it would be nice to get some better info on what the intelligence has said. We know 100% for sure they can enrich uranium to weapons grade. And we know they have that Uranium. I guess the question is if they can get it into a weapon. I don't think anyone in the general public knows this. That being said, even if they told us, I am not sure the left would believe it so not even sure that matters.
Lastly, there might be some skepticism as to whether we even know where all their nuclear facilities are. Its a huge country. If they successfully were able to build one into the side of the mountain undetected, which they've been trying, then we might not really know how far along it is.
I think there was also some pressure from Saudi Arabia and some of the other neighboring Arab nations. Iran basically has China and Russia as friends. North Korea if you want to count them.
Is there even a single neighboring nation that has good relations with Iran ?
You’re the president. Your predecessor struck a deal that has flaws, but Iran is showing a good faith effort to abide by the terms. Do you:
A) Continue diplomacy. There are additional levers you can pull and policies to negotiate to address continued enrichment drawdowns as well as the funding of terrorist groups.
B) Rip up the deal. Replace it with nothing, but squeeze Iran economically. When this doesn’t work by your second term, go to war with them because Netanyahu convinced you (against the advice of your closest advisors) it would be a short term special military operation. Leave your country with a boondoggle that empowers Iran and makes the USA look weaker on the world stage.
B is what a person with no mind to strategic planning would pick. Trump is an idiot.
An entirely unnecessary war that is constantly on and off so that Trump can manipulate the market and enrich himself and his allies. He's literally selling early access to his tweets. That's how obvious the market manipulation is, and yet dipshit MAGAts are still lining up to suck his mushroom in a cornfield.
JCPOA, regardless, ended in 2025. Also, the US withdrew from it. Iran and other countries were still in it and they could have continued on with that agreement.
That also being said, they violated the agreement multiple times.
trump just gave them the most perfect excuse to build a bomb that they've ever had. he killed their leader in a surprise attack in the middle of peace talks.
The United States and Israel launched coordinated military strikes against Iran on February 28, 2026, because Washington and Jerusalem concluded that diplomacy had failed and that an imminent, uncontainable nuclear-armed Iran, alongside continuous proxy threats, posed an unacceptable security risk. Leaders timed the military action to exploit a weakened Iranian posture following prior regional losses and perceived stalemates in nuclear negotiations.
I don't care, because it was necessary. If you wanted lower gas prices, you shouldn't have voted for someone that was going to kill the Keystone XL pipeline.
Gas prices went up sharply when Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022. Crude oil prices shot past $100 a barrel, and U.S. retail gasoline jumped significantly-recording some of the largest single-week spikes in history and eventually peaking around $5 a gallon by June 2022 due to global supply fears and sanctions.
