SS: The Gulf countries and the wider Middle East are bracing for a possible resumption of hostilities in the Iran war amid multiple simultaneous warnings and media reports of increasing intensity and detail, coupled with a massive US military build-up in the Gulf and Israeli and Iranian armies placed on high alert, raising fears of an imminent…

Ehh not exactly. It’s true that directly impeaching Trump is a tall order. However, many of the minions around Trump are going to be much much easier. He’s surrounded by deeply unpopular (and reportedly completely incompetent and corrupt) people. Going after some of them (Hegseth, Patel, etc) is much much more possible. I dont think any…

Definitely do if it was thought out and more robust. Seems to me like this was just done by trump on a whim and the high from taking out mudero. Didn't help that our initial strikes were very successful in whiping out most of Iran's higher leadership.

The timing is right for after elections, 3-4 week buildup. With potential major losses for the GOP it would be a scorched earth policy between the elections and Jan 1st. Would not surprise me as this has been Trumps MO.

What fighting back? All they have done is get creamed by the Iranians. Only the Israelis and Americans have done anything of consequence.
