I suppose what you are saying is worth thinking about. I hope you did not use some form of AI to get the word count up.

I don’t know whether to take that as a compliment or a knock. That I write like an AI. For the record, I never use AI to write anything, ever.

I believe you and it's not a serious knock. I just wish I had seen more of both sides and a little more about what Trump meant in his remarks about Cuba.

When you say our government is nuts, I agree, but it should include something more than Trump nuttery. I do not believe it's time to call this an endless war. And I do not see any explanation of why you maintain that Trump is not accountable to the Constitution. He is, and Congress can remove him from office if enough congress critters think he has done wrong. What did they miss?

It was Friday afternoon, I ran out of time and I was venting.

I did not realize you had a deadline. I understand venting. My wife usually tells me to get over it.

I’m not a Neocon, so why assume such a thing in your title?! Racket is pushing subscribers away day by day.

Aaron, if you’re not a neocon, then you are excused from the headline.

Carter: Iran took hostages.

Reagan: They're evil.

Bush I: They're a real threat.

Clinton: They're sponsoring terrorism.

Bush II: They're killing Americans.

Obama: They're building nukes.

Biden: We have to stop them.

Trump: Okay.

Iran recently tested an ICBM with a reported range of 10K km. The test fired the ICBM into a point in Siberia 6K km away.

So, if not now...when?

Also, you can find the following on Youtube...

Bill Maher: This statement from the administration, "The President had the constitutional authority to direct the use of military force because he could reasonably determine that such use of force was in the national interest. That's too vague for you?"

Adam Schiff: Totally vague.

Bill Maher: Ok, so that's from Obama about Libya.

"We're not concerned about that... The only ones that need to be worried right now are Iranians that think they're going to live." - Hegseth

Hopefully he’s referring to a very specific group of Iranians. But his boss just called for “unconditional surrender.” If we attack another country, cause them to unconditionally surrender to us, and we pick the new leader who has allegiance to us, what’s the word for that? I know there’s a word… oh yeah “conquer.”

Sure sounds like a war to me…

It's very important to choose one’s words, yes. But then Trump's recent missive with "Under serious consideration for complete destruction and certain death, because of Iran's bad behavior, are areas and groups of people that were not considered for targeting up until this moment in time. Thank you for your attention to this matter!"

Just utterly deranged and callous.

Oh, and he doesn't care if Iran becomes a democratic state?

Oh well...
