Yeah... also the right said that. Of course it was the RIGHT who said Russia was the biggest threat just barely over a decade ago, but after Trump had 5-6 people around him arrested/convicted of working for Russia without reporting it, it suddenly became how Russia isn't a threat!

LOL...it really is amazing! The way he just projects nonsense onto "leftist!" Take this? Is this what "leftist" are saying? It's funny how he just...makes things up! Where are the "leftists" claiming we let in Iranian Sleeper cells OR that we should have open borders? Are we just taking what one Antifa Member in Portland said and applying it to "the left?" LMFAO...WHAT!!! What are you babbling about? Hitler, part of the extreme right... wouldn't have bombed Iran? Sure...because Hitler NEVER attacked other Countries! Also you DO understand that Fascism is on the far RIGHT, correct? What's more, Iran=Far RIGHT. That's the extreme RIGHT wing! -Syria, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, they're all far right regimes! You're so simple, you don't understand what "left," or "right" is, just your very limited world view, but you expose your ignorance soooo badly!

That damn leftist JD Vance! JD Vance once compared Trump to Hitler. Now, he is Trump's vice president-elect | Reuters

Ok...well, godspeed then! I just hate the "I'm leaving because ____ is President," or because of Politics. But if this is something that's best for your Family, good for you. That's a WHOLE different scenario. I'm thinking about MAYBE retiring abroad myself one day and spending half the time there...but it'll never be because someone thinks they can run me out of here with their politics. But hope you stay active on here if you do and good luck in that case! Certainly easier to see SOO much more history. What's the English Expression? The US thinks 300 years is a long time and the UK things 300 miles is a long trip? I can't imagine being a high-speed train ride away from... the Sixthteenth Chapel...and I imagine the 17th is even better...after 16 times, he must have improved upon it! Good luck!

i logged on today i had 6 replies from you where do you suppose you moved and I cant stay away? i was just sharing with everyone the profound post you made when you said Iran is not serious ------ should i use shorter sentences so it is easier for u to follow my posts it is hard but i can try and write like you so you can understand

Yeah, this is...silly. Anyone who was a Women or non-White Male was a DEI Hire. If they had a problem with a White Male it was a guy who was a secret "leftist." What it's really about is blind loyalty.

perfectly valid... is not a response to my post Yeah, when? In 2018 when that was part of the agreement they had or now when despite not being able to inspect the site, you're still using them as a source? Eh, it's an easy job. Showing how dumb you are that you will take the same source(because it's from a Tweet and you don't know any better) and use that as proof to argue one point, but then just dismiss that same source when they say something other than what you believe. Scout... Cmon bud. I'm feeling embarrassed for you! Look at Scout here, bashing Trump for bombing Iran, a Country that was 35 minutes away from a Nuclear weapon!

The Trump administration or the Source that you've repeatedly used to make one argument while simultaneously dismissing that source when it doesn't fit a different argument? LMFAO... ok, so because what THEY said aligned with what you had already decided was true, but they were definitely wrong(as was the Trump administration) in 2018? You could have just finished this sentence... but I can see just fine there Scout! I don't use a source when they align with what I want to be true and then dismiss them when they contradict what I want to be true. Jimmy, there's no a chance in hell you knew what percentage was required until two days ago. Not sure what your point is or what you write posts like this when you could just finish a thought and write it all in one sentence or two sentences if necessary Well...that's been our reason for having nuclear weapons for 40 years. As a deterrent. So of course there ARE peaceful reasons. there is a whole part of history dedicated to this topic exclusively you type a lot of poorly written partial sentences just to try and make your post seem as though they have more substance i have never said I was important i would use quotes around important but being as i'm mocking how you wrote i didnt and it is painful to write like this LOL...Oh little Scout/Jimmy! That's hurtful from a man with your gravitas! Your importance! Your vast intellect and consistent positions!

Eh, jealousy of an 18-year-old kid is definitely dumber.

Bo B? Did Bo Bassett already decide he's not going to be a Cowboy? Is he going to Penn State?

Why are you so eager to be able to trash an 18-year-old kid? For... using social media to increase his profile which...invariably leads to more money? Also good for the sport, but if you really need to, it's a free country. You can trash the kid whenever you feel like it. Might be wise to hear why he decided to leave before you do, but again, that's on you.

Ok State doesn't actually make much sense. Penn State...THAT does. He'll be a 149 probably. He's a Sr this year. SVN will be a Jr with 1 more year. He takes a RS and slides into the lineup. OK State is stacked with recruits from '33-'74 in particular. BUT, with Jax, maybe he wants to make Stillwater Bishop McCourt 2.0. God knows Penn State has convinced kids, 'if you're really that good, don't worry about who is already here.' Maybe Taylor is doing the same. I'm not going to make a judgement on the Brands because... that's tired. I AM however going to remind people what Askren said about Iowa. How you'd be stupid to go to Iowa straight out of HS, how you get more money going to another school, then transferring as an AA. You get more money(I think he brought up Ayala). I don't know if that's true, he does seem to not love Iowa, but he also knows more about the recruiting process than I having gone through it with so many Wrestlers. Or...at least having so many former Wrestlers communicating with him.

I don't think so... I think someone just posed the question.

That's exactly how I read it. I think it's more important for the person donating sometimes. You're not there, you can't do anything and...this at least makes it feel like you're helping in SOME way. But it definitely doesn't read as 'we need money for the bills.' *I also assume Ben would share with his wife how to access his cryptocurrency. I doubt he still has it in a password protected wallet, but...even if he does, he's a 40 year old father with 3 kids, I'm guessing it's with his other financial documents.

Yes, but I'd be shocked if he didn't have insurance. That should cover everything up until ~15K...with the exception(possibly of the transportation from LV to Wisconsin). It's entirely possible however that it wasn't deemed "medically necessary" to move him from LV to Wisconsin. That would likely have been extremely expensive. Maybe it's so...Amy can be there and not have to work(I don't know if she is a Stay at home mother) or maybe she has to pay for childcare or maybe...a hundred other things. Maybe it's just something someone set up because they felt like that's the only thing they could do. I mean, IIRC, when Ben's Wife Amy last posted an update, she said someone had set up a fundraiser for the RTC, something Ben wanted to do and I don't recall her mentioning her own fundraiser. Something like this costs money even if the actual hospital bills don't cost money. You're entire life is put on hold and from what everyone has said publicly, his wife has pretty much been camping out in his room. Whatever it's used for, I'm fine with it.

Trip...we're like...90% in agreement on this... but I really hate this 'I'm leaving" crap. Our Founders had to fight...lining up, waiting to get shot, knowing when they did, they'd saw that limb off. The Civil War, the Soldiers at Andersonville had to pick through their own crap for pieces of corn so they have something for their next meal. Finally, these Islamic Fundamentalists don't care if it's you. It's actually harder to get to you in the US.... so they're as likely to attack Europe. And if you're worried about the mainland, go watch Chinese propaganda, look at the MOST AMAZING things they've got, the things that look like they're out of Sci-fi, the hypersonic Missiles and the Naval Vessels, the submarines, and then keep in mind, the Pentagon talks in open committee about how the Chinese are going to pass us up...we need to increase that Military Budget 10%! And then you find out, that amazing new piece of evidence is already antiquated in the US. Kinda like the F-117 Stealth that was created in '77, deny we have it...and then in 1990, we say, 'yeah, we had that, but we're retiring the old Nighthawk. What's more, if it's the leadership you disagree with, that's an even worse reason to leave. Just take it two years at a time. Trump's approval rating is at an all-time low in modern history for a President this early in and the leading contender is...Donald Trump Jr. He is NOT the original thing. MAGA is Trump and only Trump. Things will get better(even if I don't quite agree with you on this one subject).

I always do! You just don't always agree with them!

Sadly, his past statement probably isn't applicable in this scenario I bet they wouldn't take Scout. Though.... they DO like people who are incapable of independent thought and get all their news from X, don't question things and already decide what's right before knowing what they're arguing about(what I'm describing is...stoopid). We're not going to War, but you gotta list me thought reasons. A-You'd..assume... (which is dubious in and of itself with Trump, the guy with the non-Nazi-Nazi-tattoos and the intelligence committee that said Iran was making no attempt to develop Nuclear Weapons and our Nations GREATEST DEI hire, Tulsi Gabbard(I don't actually know if she was DEI, I just noticed if they're not a white man, you can reduce them to DEI) that it'd be VERY few boots on the ground and more us supporting the Cown Prince's claim to the throne. You already have a majority of Iranians who want a different form of non-theocratic Government. B-Unlike Iraq or Afghanistan, this would GREATLY shift the balance in the Middle East and maybe so many of the most powerful countries there wouldn't be so...GD regressive. Treating Women as property (which stopped being cool here like 160 years ago). But it'd also GREATLY reduce the terrorists activity in that Country, and while it's a LOONG shot, if you could get a more secular Govt in there, just as you have when the Shah was in power, it'd change the world more than any countries 'regime change' since the Soviet Union fell...short lived though that may have been. So you fund the rebels, you start to trot out Pahlavi, you maybe...set up Starlink over Iran... It's incredibly unlikely, but it'd be a MASSIVE boon to lasting peace. Nobody wants this to continue. Though...again, I was told there'd "be no wars with Trump."

This is not even dog whistle antisemitism. People were saying the same nonsense when Biden was funding Israel. Please stop identifying everything as "oppressed and oppressor." Israel isn't TRYING to oppress Palestine (well, they weren't, now they're just kicking ass in Gaza because they just never stop). The Palestinians have been given AMPLE opportunity for peace. They've not once negotiated in good faith. Israel pulled out of in 2005 and their GDP was growing at 4-5% per year(so good economic growth). They got more aid per capita than anywhere in the world. I wonder what Palestine would look like if... they just put that money toward the people rather than building on the underground tunnel system and building military bases in schools and hospitals? But they didn't. And sadly, as Oct7th approached, more and more Palestinians were in favor of peace. Israel was building hospitals, but you're goddamn right they still had strong borders and blockades. But if you're going to ask why Israel, the Country that's been attacked since the ENGLISH Mandate, had strict check points and borders, lets ask why Egypt did as well? But in the end, aside from aside from "Nettanyahoos," being a childish retort and similar to Scout/Jimmy's "libtardods" line...what you're really saying is, "The Jews are controlling us." You really think the US is doing something that's NOT in it's own best interest? And they've been doing this since Carter? C'mon...

Citing an agreement Iran was adhering to before Trump pulled out of it for...no rational reason...seems foolish. I don't agree. Iran may try and use terrorists to detonate a dirty bomb in the US, but Enriching Uranium to the point where you can make Nuclear Weapons...and THEN finding a delivery source that the United States won't just be able to shoot out of the sky is a taller order now. It's going to be... quite a bit more difficult in the future with artificial intelligence. No, if they could build a nuclear weapons, they'd go after Israel. On top of wishing all Jews would return to Israel as it's be easier to kill them all, Hamas leader said the following; “All of you 7 million Palestinians abroad… you have Jews everywhere. You should attack every Jew possible in all the world and kill them.” cufi.org Since the 1980s they've been years. Since the early 90s, it's been mostly Months.

Then don't listen to how it's "framed." And I don't know how being in Europe is going to help you here. Seriously... there have been a LOT more refugees taking in from Europe in recent years, people who are more fundamentalist than you have in the US. Hell, we even deport Afghan translators who put their lives on the line, saved American Military Lives with old Red White and Blue promising to let them come here since...they fought for our country and WILL be murdered if they are sent back... and we're indifferent.

Well... you have the overthrow of the Hawiian Kingdom...that worked out pretty well! Uh...Panama was...pretty successful. Haiti in...the 90s(93, 94, IDR). Also the Dominican Republic. That worked. I just find the...well, I used to call it Far Right, but if you're MAGA, about a 90% chance you're already far right, but their hypocrisy is HILARIOUS! They argued against the veracity of the IAEA intelligence reported in 2018 when the US pulled out of the JPOAC. The same people...they're quoting them ALL over the place today! Oh, and on top of that, you have the; Biden Started Two Wars," crowd...despite not sending an American Soldier in either event and that's why we need Trump, because he'll end the wars in Israel, in the Ukraine and he'll do it on Day 1! A couple questions, are those two Wars over, did Trump use US Troops to intervene in Iran and does the right even see how full of fecal matter they are!

I get that, but I think that's an overblown fear. Iran isn't capable of escalating it badly. Now, while I think @Scouts Honorspeaks out of both sides of his mouth when he says "Iran is not a serious country," and then says it's so important, they're so close to getting a Nuclear Weapon, we HAD to bomb them," I do not think they can really do anything in terms of striking back. Terrorist attacks are coming(or at least plots and I'm sure some long actors who just think it's a good idea to act on behalf of Iran)...and there will be other things, I don't thnk it's WWIII, I don't think China has the appetite to get involved, I think China wants to, but won't do so until they're fighting from a position of strength(not just their Military, their economy). The one thing they have going for them, they DEFINITELY have a coherent, long term plan and they are following that. By definition, we'll never have that. The continuity of leadership. I wouldn't want it, but in this case, I think it keeps them out. Egypt wouldn't dare, the Saudi's have become far too pragmatic(though still brutal). Jordan isn't going to(another country with a treaty). Iraq is...not in a position to engage in a military offensive, Afghanistan should...really know better. I don't see this escalating beyond missiles being fired. The WORST thing that could happen would be China takes this as an opportunity to implement it's blockade of Taiwan with so much of the Pacific Fleet in the Middle East. That would MASSIVELY rattle the market, per US Foreign Policy, that's an act of War... but I don't think China is going to do that at this point(though I don't think Trump would go to War there as...there'd be a real threat to the Military and despite the fact that it'd cause...well, a global financial crisis(Semiconductors from Taiwan being cut off, even with the AZ plant from the Biden Chips Act underway and performing exceptionally well, it'd still have catastrophic affects). But I don't think it's going to escalate into any type of global conflict. I think it's reached it's zenith...unless Israel goes in and does more. What's MUCH more likely to happen is a massive Cyber-Security Hacking attempt. I've been a longtime shareholder of CRWD, bought PANW about a year ago and S(Sentinel One is a growth AI Cyber Security company that's got a lot of growth potential). AI is the future. Hopefully you also bought NVDA 6-7 years ago or TSM, AVGO, you could buy AMD now, PLTR is a crazy valuation, NVTS is a good growth stock, but the second order consequences will be more attempts to hack, IP theft and in response, the companies that can actually use AI to block cyber security. ---AT least...that's my opinion and how I'll be watching this unfold. Hopefully with some Iranians taking to the streets...and maybe with the soldiers distracted, they can actually accomplish something.

Ok, so I just cut and pasted your link and... I never case to be amazed at your ability to so consistently misrepresent an argument. 1-Show me a SINGLE time I've been again bombing Iran? I DID point out your hypocrisy. You JUST used this source to advocate for it. YOU were using the IAEA's Data... but only NOW in 2025 when it suits the argument you'd already made up before you came into this conversation. Me on the other hand, I've consistently said I think the best thing that could happen to the Middle East would be if we were able to help aid the Crown Prince of Iran, Reza Pahlavi, and see it returned to the type of country they were in the 1970s. 2-Well, I'll just repeat #1 again. I've pointed out MOUNTAINS of hypocrisy... maybe that's why you're confused? But you keep saying that I'm ....denying Iran is working on their Nuclear plan or I guess just whatever argument you need to make at the time to stop from looking like a fool, but #2 is show me where I've been against Trump's action? 3-Tell me why you think the IEAE is such a great source in 2025, but you didn't believe them in 2018? Or at least why YESTERDAY you thought they were such a great source now, but not in 2018? IAEA chief says Iran has material for warheads but no weapon program | Fox News

Yes...and since the START... my point has simply been... if you want to say you can't 'trust' the United States, they were, according to ALL sources abiding by the conditions. It wasn't until after they started to ramp up their Nuclear program again. I've NEVER argued they were going to go back to trying to become a Nuclear power. Look at it from their perspective. The US has them, Israel has them...why should they not be allowed to? But fine, they made a deal where THEIR ASSETS(money was NOT "given" to them) were unfrozen...and so they stopped. Every agency agreed on this point, Gov't or the IAEA That was it. Ok. You know the IAEA is not "the Government," and it's the Trump Government. But if you didn't believe it then, why are you using numbers citing the same sources now?
