US has struck three Iranian nuclear sites, Trump says, joining Israeli air campaign

Unpopular opinion. But we'd be here if Trump was never elected. The US has wanted reason to invade Iran for decades. Trump definitely does damage to America's image. But, as far the the third world's image of America, no one did more damage than Biden did with his Genocide of Gaza.
The main point being. US imperialism is not directed by the president alone. It is directed by Americas defense industry and military industrial complex. I think the main difference between Trump or a Biden/Harris would be the aesthetics. And maybe going through the steps of Congress. But this war is what Imperialism is demanding.

Exactly. There's a reason Dem leadership isn't condemning this.
Why would they? AIPAC wants this and funds both sides to they always get what they want.

Fallout, but we aren't ready yet. Where is Valt-Tec when you need them?
I’d prefer nothing over Vault-Tec to be fair

China needs to start caring about how these actions from the US are threatening it's own stability. I don't want war with China. But there is a point where they will be forced to take actual action to defend their allies. And that's what the US is banking on. They want world war. This is another step towards that.
China doesn't want to make the same mistake as the USSR which is expending geopolitical power to maintain an entire hegemony against the USA. They're content with making money and don't spend a lot of energy keeping extreme espionage on every country like the USA does.
China knows the US will take the military option if confronted, which is to their disadvantage, so they'll find every alternative path or method.
Biggest example is Pakistan. Its a massive CPEC project and defense partner, yet the military leadership in charge is basically a US lapdog because China knows if they try to pull the same regime change shenanigans, its just gonna end up like USSR vs USA 2 with a crap ton of proxy wars everywhere.
I think their longterm goal is to just slowly erode at the global economy. Even if the US owns the regime in the country, a significant portion of money will be going to China. They could choose to eventually use that power to reinforce their allies, but I think that's still like 20+ years down the line.

At least you could die to really sadistic experiments instead of ghouling on the surface.

Someone needs to take out that regime. A decapitation strike. Not talking about Iran.
The entire US government is behind these attacks, the dems aren't even pushing back in the slightest

Yeah. American foreign policy is always bipartisan. How they decide to spin it is the only difference between parties.

Absolutely agree. The entire US government seems to be united in their fervor to attack and eventually control or destroy Iran.

Trump: "TIME FOR PEACE"
Incredible thing to say after willingly choosing to attack someone. American hypocrisy at its finest.
“Bombing for peace is like fucking for virginity”.

Dude on CNN talking about how "now we are looking for Iran to come to the table for diplomacy". They are really trying to set up concent for further involvement.
I feel like I'm losing my mind watching all news media. So just a reminder for people.
Iran attacked no one until they were first attacked by Israel. They literally got attacked by Israel days before a diplomatic talk scheduled with the US. I'm losing my mind over how blatantly our media manufactures concent for war.
Country gets bombed, then gets bombed cause they got bombed, and the excuse is “we think that they have nukes”… https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/480/980/897.gif

"[...] four [countries] contributed troops to the invasion force (the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia and Poland). An additional 37 countries provided some number of troops to support military operations after the invasion was complete." (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coalition_of_the_willing_(Iraq_War))
Far far less for sure. Although are quite some far right leaders in Europe right now. Perhaps Hungary and Italy are on their way already.
Hungary is busy trying to set off another Balkan conflict

The lies are the same. But we are in a completely different America than 20 years ago. This is the actions of a dying empire. 2003 were the actions of a empire that thought it could never lose.
The imperialism will be turned inward much much more this time. Fascism needs a war to justify it's authority domestically.

The really annoying/stupid part is, there’s a simple and better alternative, but people won’t go for it.
