    Thought we should start thread here - over weekend, US carried out strikes against Houthi elements in Yemen in retaliation for their actions in Red Sea.



    Houthi leader issued this statement- no US ships in Red Sea


    Houthis then attempted to strike US Carrier group

    This morning Trump took to Truth Social:



    So any missile/shot fired from Houthi elements in Yemen will be considered coming from Iran. Obviously this is wrought with problems, but we know Houthis will respond and continue attacks.

    So then what does this mean for Iran? Lots to unpack, but seems to me that the NO WAR POTUS is hell bent on getting into yet ANOTHER conflict in the ME. He is backing himself into a corner with statements and we could find ourselves embroiled in ME conflict again.

    Donny is convinced Iran tried to assassinate him and maybe they did. However, will Putin let Donny attack their biggest ally?

    Also, I love how Trump is doing this for free trade access and concurrently putting tarrifs on all imports. Hardly any of the commercial shipping is American so who is he helping? France, China, Greece?
     
    maybe time to start paying attention to the Signals ( pun intended )

     
    Might need to change thread title here soon.

    Iran had rejected the Trump letter. They refuse any talks with Trump.

    Meanwhile Trump today.

     
    We now have 7 B2 bombers at Diego Garcia along with GBU57 bombs - 30,000lb MOP (massive ordinance penetrator)

    fork we’re about to pop someone. Iran? Or houthis?
     
    100% Iran. Those MOPs were developed just for them and Trump might be feeling salty about the assassination plot.

    Iran. For their underground ballistic missile and nuclear facilities.

    They have until May 1 to come to table. ( or so demanded by Trump )
     
    War with Iran would be psychotic.

    Neither Russia nor the PRC would stand idly by.

    Thanks to all the idiots who voted for Trump, supported Trump by voting for those who support Trump or couldn’t vote for a woman or couldn’t be bothered to vote at all.
     
    Well, this certainly isn’t possible. I was reliably informed by MAGA idiots everywhere (especially on here by someone in particular) that Trump is the “peace” president and he would never start a war.

    What i think it noteworthy is Trump, historically, punches down. He doesnt look to conflict with an adversary that matches up well. Not to say Iran matches up with US, however, they are WAAAY more capable than the Houthis, ISIS, Hamas/Hezbollah etc.

    So if Trump is being told we can pull off strike(s) with no real counter threat, he may just go thru with it. But if he is told there is a good possibility of capable AD and retaliatory strike(s), that could be on allied soil, he may very well back down.

    I guess we will soon find out.
     
    something is coming. i suspect a pretty large bombing strike if Iran doesnt capitulate.
    Once again this is impossible. We were all assured repeatedly that Trump was the “peace” president. And we were mocked for not believing that line of bull shirt.
