Dukkha: "do what Jack? bomb bomb bomb Iran? So now you're a big interventionst?'
Jack; Iran isn't our War. NK shooting Missiles over Japan (a Treaty partner) is our War.
Dukkha: "Look Iran is now on notice. Trump gave them a grace period because he didn't want to kill their operators over an unarmed drone. For John Bolton and Lindsey Graham that was a missed opportunity. For the rest of us it's granting Iran 1 more chance."
Jack: Not OUR War.

Dukkha: "I'm not a paid stooge. We sell them a shit load of arms if that makes you feel better"
Jack; Will they be using them? Or, is that just the 'Payment' they use so WE fight THEIR War?
Dukkha: "KSA has a chance to reform under MbS -give them a chance; and in the meantime they are a much needed counterweight to Iran"
Jack: Let KSA do whatever they want to do, ... just as long as Americans don't have to die for them.

Dukkha: "your posts conflict as to what we should do..you criticize both a strike and a non-strike..."
Jack: No. You're conflating two different events.
Dukkha: "maybe you just like to bitch because it's Trump'
Jack: I try to take issue by issue and not get into the Red Team/Blue Team partisanship that is prevalent here.
Example: I supported Obama when he suggested a surgical strike on Assad's Syria for using internationally outlawed chemical weapons.
... I supported Trump when he proposed using a limited strike on Assad's Syria for using internationally outlawed chemical weapons.
Hello Jack,
No easy answer except if we don't somebody else will.
No.
We have no control over that. If we want freedom it must be allowed.
No.
No.
No.
Give us influence in the region.
