    The World was caught off guard by the strikes on Iranian nuclear sites.

    How?

    Simple....


    Democrats were not informed and Trump learned from his first term mistakes.

    I still do not advocate escalation, but I also trust Trump and his "no new wars" mantra. He knows war is not good, war is costly and wars serve no real common good. Precision strikes serve purpose, all out bombardment only escalates the situation.

    All I can say now is the U.S. mainland security now falls on F.B.I. , C.I.A., and D.H.S.

    One can only hope they can circumvent the damage done by the end of Obama's term and the entirety of Biden's.

    Left wing media and their supporters in Congress are praying for missed targets by the U.S. military.

    How sick is that(?), and what do they really want for this country?

    It's not how they operate, they will strike a civilian target, if only we had a Nuclear deal in place to avoid all this non-sense.

    Which is why we all should be on the lookout.

    A deal in place? Also, not how they operate. The Islamic worldview is very different. There is no separation of their religion and government. And the US, whom they have chanted ‘Death to the US’ since the end of the Shah reign…

    We had a Nuclear deal in place, remember. This whole operation is because we have no Nuclear deal. Which Trump is trying to get them to signed. Because he canceled the last one, bad deal and Trump was going to get a better one.

    You mean ‘the deal’ that Iran banned IAEA and was to self monitor, post Stuxnet, under which they rebuilt their refinement processes instead of dismantling, built stealth enrichment and separation facilities, rocket/missile propulsion and targeting technologies and have a sworn pledge to the destruction of our ally Israel (under which they funded operations like 10/7, granted non-nuclear)…?

    Iran will ignore any nuclear limitations just like Hitler ignored rearmament and his treaty with Russia.
    Didn't we learn anything from the Vietnam fiasco?

    Do you understand how they operate? They have had sleeper cells agents in the country before the nuclear deal was signed by Obama, or destroyed by Trump. A nuclear deal wouldn’t change that fact. But it seems now like we may get a deal from Iran. For whatever that might be worth.

    Forgive me Father, for I have sinned.....

    I tried something new tonight. I watched CNN for the majority of the night, not for the punishment I got, but to try to understand a different perspective.

    They cannot accept anything at face value and have to stray towards negativity for everything.

    It's a sad world when you truly cannot get a balanced news story and/or channel.

    If I could change one thing in the world it would be the internet, if I could get a 2nd it would be 24 hour TV.

    Snail mail and 11:59pm channel sign offs with no repeat programming. 3-4 news cycles per day, morning/midday/evening and maybe late night.

    And

    On June 24, 2025, Israel accused Iran of violating the US-brokered ceasefire and pledged to respond with force against the breach.

    Maybe Trump is right and it's just time to end the problem
