Dude, of all the dumb things this may be the worst. I can guarantee you'll see regional war if this happens, as the Iranians will be completely backed into a corner with no other way out, short of revolution by the people. You'd probably see a bomb or two go off in the region, maybe even in Israel.

I can guarantee you, if competent professionals were in charge, we wouldn’t have heard this much.

Houthis remain undeterred as missile attacks continue to bedevil Israel, US - analysis​

The Houthis are showing they can attack at any time and place of their choosing.​

The Iranian-backed Houthis launched two long-range missiles at Israel on Thursday. The attack was an attempt to showcase that they can fire multiple missiles in broad daylight, even as US airstrikes continue to hit them.

This is a classic Galtieri/Falkland Islands move. Unpopular at home, doing stupid things. Go start a war with a long-standing foe, seek an easy early victory, and if he’s moderately lucky the country will rally around a wartime President until the war turns the other way.

I sure hope you're wrong. A lot of innocents will die to shake the thirst for blood these madmen harbour (Trump and the Ayatollah).

Iran needs to eat some some shit... Who delivers the shit sandwich is up for debate, but they need to be put back in their place.

Iran is in no way able to nuke us, or Europe. At best they can nuke Iraq, or Afghanistan.... Not great internationally, but even worse for Iran.

They are Russia, with more religious extremism, and less water.

There are 6 or 7 B-2s massed in Diego Garcia currently, according to the plane tracking nerds. That’s quite a significant forward posture. Whatever’s up, someone is fixing to have a very bad night sometime soon.

Looks like Rep. Elise Stefanik's (R-NY) who was President Trumps choice to be the next US Ambassador to the United Nations has had the nomination terminated. Speculation is that it might have something to do the Republicans razor-thin majority in the House of Representatives. No word on who will replace her in the UN.

Of telegraphing that the Administration doesn't give a rat's patootie about the UN.

On the other hand they can carry out terrorist attacks against American interests just about anywhere in the world. Resulting in a lot of innocent people getting killed just because of Trump's ego.

You think Iran isn't already planning to do those things? Hamas is Iran's tool, and they carried out the worst terrorist attack since 9/11 a couple of years ago.

Supposedly Carney and Trump are to have their first call this morning. Actual timing of the call is not posted from what I can see. It will be interesting to see how this goes. I am not hopeful of a positive outcome.

Comparing both countries’ readouts of the call might be interesting.

But even then you'd need to add in Trump's 'Truth Social' rantings of what he believes happened vs what the White House puts out vs what our PMO puts out.

Not sure how this wouldn't do the exact opposite of bringing stuff back to the US, but I guess this is more of that 7D chess us mortals wouldn't understand.

It is an interesting post in that it is not written in his usual style, no capitalization of words. Most of his other posts have America great in full caps.

Its great to see that the first meeting 'went well', because it can set the tone of future meetings - if - we were dealing with a normal, rational individual, we are not. Its better than the initial meeting going to shit from the first words but I'm not thinking that all will be well from here on out, smooth seas and following winds.

He didn't write that at all, you are 100% correct. Lets wait and see what our side says about the call.
