Iran has been escalating toward the United States in the world since Obama funded with billions and billions of dollars and of course we know Iran bought missile defenses.

The biggest mistake is waiting for a damage assessment !!! The US should have responded already, maybe they did, IDK !!! As soon as the attack was confirmed !!!

Stay tuned for the President to address the nation !!!
President will address the nation after he changes into a Depends.

We started this thing. It's a lot bigger than Trump btw. The elites who run this country hate Iran, were hell bent on getting in war with them and are now getting their wish.

What a terrible statement to make.
Be an American and support those that risk their lives for you
I support them by supporting them NOT HAVING TO FIGHT...

But I guess it’s too late now.

And now that we’ve pushed our allies away... I hope we have a cease fire.

Oddly enough, they were held hostage until Reagan was inaugurated.

Followed by Reagan/Bush's Iran/Contra backroom business.

Big Fail on that attempt.
To answer WaldoKitty's point about Iran "allegedly" attacking Iraq, I defer to WaldoKitty's own assertion that allegations without proof are worthless:

If I were Trump, I'd give them 48 hours to evacuate Tehran, then nuke it. Immediate surrender.

I'm sure this attack was anticipated and retaliation strategy discussed.

Let the Middle East allies do the bulk of the fighting with US troops as backup.
