It is hard for the US to fathom that the leadership in Iran would rather die than surrender. It was a similar situation for Japan in WW2. Only when faced with total and final destruction did Japan surrender. I truly pray that total destruction is not necessary. Perhaps the people of Iran could revolt against the government? In any event, at this point the only acceptable outcome (from a US perspective) is a non nuclear Iran. The sooner the leadership in Iran can accept this, the better for them and the entire world. Unfortunately, they will probably chose death over capitulation.

{quote} You are indirectly teaming up with the Islamic terrorists elements and they love you for it.
You can't twist my arm into supporting president bonespurs because he's allegedly fighting terrorism, especially since any problems that exist in the middle east are probably the result of the US meddling in the first place, because of all the oil.

But even assuming Trump is legit fighting evil people, it still would not exempt him from criticism. He doesn't get to be a buffoon for a year then pick up the crusade against evil and suddenly all is forgiven.

Do you think one could argue in court that they're absolved of crimes because to convict them is to be against the good things they do?

Quote
Don't forget, they have been ruling illegitimately without allowing free elections in Iran, whereas Trump, elected by the majority, has a limited time to impose his ideas on US and the world.

First, who defines what legitimacy is? Maybe whoever can take and hold power is legitimate. The success of democracy is proportional to the intelligence of the population and maybe some populations can only be governed by an autocrat. The vast majority of civilizations had kings. How can I know what is the appropriate for a country halfway around the globe that I know nothing about except what is filtered through western media?

Second, Trump only won because Harris lost, because of inflation. The majority did not vote for all this craziness; they just wanted lower prices. So the election was more a rejection of Bidenomics than it was admiration of Trump. There is no "mandate of the people" like magatards claim. And likewise Biden only won because people voted not-Trump. We always get a choice of the two most hated candidates, so whoever wins, it can hardly be said to be a democracy.

Quote
What system do you prefer? (To help you make up your mind, imagine Trump being in power for 47 years by force.)

Why not imagine Bill Clinton still being king and Trump never happened?

There is a saying that the people always get the government they deserve.

I'm happy to pay several times more to be sure the mafia gang is thrown out of the white house and prosecuted for war crimes after the midterms. Nothing looks better than $8/gal gas right now.

The deployment of U.S. ground troops would almost inevitably trigger a full-scale war — following the сценарий of the Iraq War 2003. But this time the opponent is not a weakened Iraq — it’s Iran: a stronger military, missile capabilities, and the readiness for a long fight.
Most importantly, Iran is no longer alone. It has backing from Russia and China. That means one thing: there will be no quick victory — only a prolonged, costly, and bloody war.
For Donald Trump, this is a dead end.
Stopping now means losing face.
Moving forward means getting trapped in a long war, collapsing ratings, and dividing his own party.
There are no good options left. Only a choice of how to lose.

From 3-4 day war, to 4 weeks war and now the propaganda are setting in the ground troops narrative.

I guess things are not going as good as presented.

Why need ground troops if everything is going as good???

Yes.
If Iran wasn't the biggest sponsor of terrorisms, all the reaction to their terrorism as you described wouldn't take place.
I am sure you have heard of "cause and effect" before.
You want the effect to go away? Get rid of the cause.

All Infiltrated, destabilized, funded and controlled by head of the snake, the Islamic terrorists of Iran.

They also have been trying to do the same to many other countries including GCC and some African countries. They are bad news for any country they try to overtake starting with establishing proxies there. That includes your country:

The Islamic Republic of Iran maintains a multifaceted, growing influence in Thailand, focusing on strengthening Shiite minority ties, economic agreements, and cultural diplomacy. While formal trade and diplomatic ties have improved, particularly through energy and agricultural cooperation, Iran seeks to expand its ideological influence over Thai Muslims.

You are obviously a victims of theirs already.
You really really don't understand the cause and effect relationship. Google it.
You do understand large graphics tho. You could have just written the names of those countries.
Do me a favor and google what state they were in before The Iran terrorists came on scene.

Here is the sphere of influence and control of the Islamic terrorist's network.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Islamic Republic of Iran has established a significant and multifaceted scope of influence, primarily focused on the Middle East, characterized by its "Axis of Resistance" network of aligned armed groups, political proxy development, and strategic use of Shiite ideology. While facing intense economic sanctions and domestic challenges, Iran has managed to create an extensive network of alliances that allow it to project power and conduct deniable operations at a relatively low cost.

Regional Influence and the "Axis of Resistance"
Iran's core influence strategy relies on cultivating, training, and funding non-state actors in neighboring Arab countries to establish a security buffer against adversaries like Israel and the United States.

Lebanon: Hezbollah serves as a key ally and surrogate, enhancing Iran's ability to threaten Israeli territory and project power in the Mediterranean.

Iraq: Through the Quds Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), Iran heavily influences Iraqi security via aligned Shiite militias within the Popular Mobilisation Units (PMU), although this has faced some popular backlash.

Syria: Iran has entrenched its position by aiding the Assad government through military forces and proxy fighters, transforming it into a vital regional partner.

Yemen: Iran supports Houthi rebels (Ansar Allah), enabling them to threaten shipping in the Red Sea and launch attacks against Saudi Arabia, extending Tehran's reach to the Arabian Peninsula.
Palestinian Territories: Iran provides financial and military aid to Hamas and Palestine Islamic Jihad (PIJ), strengthening its influence in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Ideological and Cultural Influence

Shiite Network: Iran leverages its position as the world's most populous Shia Muslim country to influence Shia communities in Iraq, Bahrain, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, and beyond.

Ideological Export: The regime's ideology combines Shiite Islamism with anti-Western, specifically anti-American and anti-Israeli, rhetoric designed to foster a "Muslim awakening" under its influence.

"Soft Power" Tools: Organizations like the Ahl al-Bayt World Assembly and Al-Mustafa International University are used to spread Iranian culture and religious ideology abroad.

Military and Technological Power

Missile Capability: Iran holds the region's largest inventory of ballistic missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), which it supplies to its proxies, directly challenging regional security.

Unconventional Warfare: The IRGC-Quds Force has pioneered asymmetric warfare, allowing Iran to bypass conventional military inferiority and threaten rivals.

Naval Pressure: Iran threatens maritime security and international trade routes in the Persian Gulf and Red Sea.

Broader International Scope

Russia: Iran has become a key military supplier to Russia, providing drones for its war in Ukraine, signaling a growing strategic partnership.

Latin America: Iran has maintained a presence in the region, including close ties with Venezuela, driven by its anti-Western ideology.

Global Activities: Iran is accused of conducting assassination and terrorist operations in over 20 countries, indicating a global, albeit sometimes fragmented, reach.

Despite its influence, Iran faces significant hurdles, including severe economic degradation due to sanctions, and rising domestic discontent over "de-revolutionization" and social restrictions.
