First, because this will spread like a cancerous tumor. If one doctor can't do the whole operation him/herself they may need to bring in a colleague to help. Second, American blood has been spilled for years because of them. I don't see this turning into that type of situation. IMHO it's a means to an end. I have no issues with them paying us though.
What do you suppose happens if oil costs $40/barrel more in Europe than here ?
Prior to the US (re: CIA) stuck it's dick in their politics: Iran and the United States were close allies until the Iranian Revolution in 1979, when a new regime came to power whose anti-colonial and anti-imperialist stance took aim at the United States for its interference in the region, including the 1953 coup that propped up the regime of Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi.
We dont sell it to them. Fuck off. Our oil should benefit us. Fill the oil reserves back up.
I think many of the participants here are old farts that have seen a thing or two and despite a strong warrior ethos, don't want us dragged into another shit filled sand box for which our Kids and fortunes are wasted...It's easy to send Planes loaded with Bombs to places and people that need to be fucked up, tends to bring Dictators and Tyrants back in line while minimizing overall damage and cost in lives....The Left yaps about it until you remind them that Obummer ordered 26,171 Bombs dropped on a half dozen or more Countries, then joked about smoking foreign Leaders with Drones...none of this is new, just being blown out of proportion because it's Trump, and the fuckwads (Democrats) deride ANYTHING Trump says or does.
Prosperous? Well, for those that won't possibly be killed by them down the road I'm pretty sure yes. They will have a better chance to earn a living and care for those they love.
I don't want to see that either. Maybe I am being ignorant but so far Israel and the US (as of yesterday) have accomplished much without boots on the ground and being shot at. Don't you think a lot has been done in a relatively short period of time from a far so to speak? I would pound them unrelentllessly until they cry uncle and them, hit them a bit more just to make sure. I guess my question is based on the entirety of the situation over decades, the direction Iran was heading with nukes and enrichment, how deep underground they were placing the facilities, the anti American/Israeli rhetoric, the absolute pathetic leadership up until now that allowed such behaviour to fester... when is enough enough? Trump has given them many opportunities to come to the table. Trump has given them many opportunities to avoid what happened yesterday. Trump has said from day one even in his first presidency, Iran will not have nukes. Trump has told them what would happen to them if they continued down the road they have been traveling. Trump gave them many chances. Their response?
And, what would the world look like currently if we didn't? IMHO that is money better spent for the most part (I'm not privy to how the funds were spent) compared to what DOGE uncovered.
I'm good with that.
Let's say I move to TN. Let's say there are people there that don't like me being a Jewish NY'er. Let's say you have been a good friend of mine for many many years. Let's say I can handle myself but only to a point. Let's say these people outnumber me and are bigger than me although with your help I can win without either of us sustaining too much damage. Would say you are not getting involved and it is my fight to handle by myself or would you have my back?

I know. Ditto.
Trump had America swimming in oil in no time.
Obviously not.
