So Trump BLEATS out I might bomb Iran, maybe I won't, I don't know, NOBODY knows.
It seems IRAN knew, DAYS in advance and so got DOZENS of trucks and hauled out a reported 900 odd pounds of highly enriched Uranium and no doubt HYNDREDS of centrifuges, I bet at LEAST ten would fit in a truck and there were LITERALLY dozens.
How STUPID can one person be, COMMANDER IN CHIEF TELEGRAPHING intent to bomb.
Then when the planes were still in the air, TOTAL SUCCESS, TOTAL destruction.
For Trump, just another reality TV show, ZERO brains.
I was four years in the military and EVEN I know you don't flipping BROADCAST your intent for military action.
Take the case when Bush Sr, attacked Iraq with desert Storm and ground offensive with Desert Sabre.
Think what could have happened if Bush went, well, we MIGHT attack Iraq, maybe we won't......
@sonhouse saidStuff can't get OBLITERATED if it's not even there, right?

@Suzianne saidYeah, shows just how far ahead Trump can think. The plans for that kind of attack was known some 15 years ahead of time, and Hegseth goes Trump DIRECTED the attack.

Right, a plan already in place and it takes a POTUS to monitor it minute by minute.
He goes "GO'' and the EXPERTS take over.
@sonhouse saidIt’s so typical of Trump with his neurosis to make sure his own profile is always at the top of the list. Incompetence, narcissism, and power with no accountability are a toxic combination.

@moonbus saidIt works for him. You don’t get it. Could that be what got him to the very front of the group picture at NATO? Makes us proud.

@AverageJoe1 saidI didn't know we had such experienced military strategists on this site. They should work at the Pentagon.

@Cliff-Mashburn saidIt is entertaining, I must admit. Amazing the detail they go into as if what they say makes a hill of beans. Meanwhile, we have men protecting our country who at the drop of a hat can jump into a plane and do what they did last week, totally unappreciated by the people who they are protecting , who would be everyone on this forum.

Even Zahlanzi , and that is getting pretty bad. Shav et al are harmless,,,,but Zahlanzi?? Brrrrrrr
@Cliff-Mashburn saidWell, actually, I DID work at the Pentagon. But of course you will just poo poo that as a lie. Amazing the number of DOD bus tickets on the ground after quitting time.

@sonhouse saidI thought you worked in maintenance on B-47's?

Assuming you did work in the Pentagon, I'm sure it had nothing to do with strategic planning. Unless you were at least a Major or higher.
@Cliff-Mashburn saidI did B47's for four years, the pentagon gig was later. And it was decidedly low key.

REAL big deal🙂 maintaining the internal phones. Yep, SO difficult a job.
For RCA. Our office was across the isle from the budget dudes where they could see inside RCA office so my boss said, don't show up here during work day, get lost till you get a call to fix a phone.
So my buddy and I would find a nook on an empty stair case somewhere and play chess🙂 Yep, REAL high tech stuff.....
But still there were some moments. One time when I was there for maybe 2 days, fixing a phone in the office of a full bird, I go inside the office with a new phone and I see a filing cabinet wide open with the tag North Korean Prisoners of War.
Just hanging out in the open. So the bird comes in, says who are you and I want to see ID. I had not been given a badge at that point in time but I had one of those DOD bus tickets I picked off the ground, Showed him that, sweating a bit inside. He goes OK, get to work.
I'm thinking WHAT THE HELL, I give the bird a DOD bus ticket which were outside by the hundreds dropped on the ground by folks coming to work and he took that as an ID.
I was aghast, what the hell? I'm looking at an open filing cabinet which I am pretty sure would have been Secret at least wide open and the bird didn't even close the drawer.
@Cliff-Mashburn saidAnd the drunken hegseth is? ha ha ha ha

@AverageJoe1 saidEntertaining. Right, just what someone would say when they can't see what is in front of our noses.

You think, what, I am LYING about Trump blowing the military surprise attack when he FKING ANNOUNCES it on TV, going, maybe I will, maybe I won't, you SERIOUSLY think Iran intel folks don't watch TV?
If you think I am full of bull crap, EXPLAIN the FACT there were DOZENS of big trucks at Fordow pulling out hundreds of pounds of enriched uranium and hundreds of centrifuges TWO DAYS BEFORE THE ATTACKS.
You are in LA LA land if you think Iran would be so STUPID to ignore the demented mooing of Trump days before he hit GO?
Just as irresponsible as Hegseth broadcasting TOP secret flights to bomb places in Syria, with a JOURNALIST, a MAJOR one IN ON THE CALLS, ASKED to be in on them.
If Israel had not knocked out Iran air defenses, they could have been ready and waiting, anti air missiles ready to launch, radars tagging the planes.
If we had tried that ploy with RUSSIA, what do you think the chances were we would do a bombing run with no planes shot down?
ESPECIALLY when they had several DAYS warning, thanks to the STUPIDITY of Trump.
@AverageJoe1 saidA lot of shoving, mainly.
It works for him. You don’t get it. Could that be what got him to the very front of the group picture at NATO? Makes us proud.
He's the world's oldest bully.
