Some thoughts on Iran (Public Board)

When we bombed Iran nuclear sites last year, I was surprised we didn't finish the job and take out the Ayatollah and his evil regime. Israel wanted to do that, but Trump didn't at the time. He gave Iran every opportunity to stop pursuing nuclear weapons but when all diplomacy failed there was no other choice but to kill them and deal with the aftermath. They had to be killed because they were pure evil and a threat to the world.

It should've happened long ago but no other President had the guts to do it.

^ This is the one dimensional version that the Trump administration has been pushing.

1) Israel forced the hand of the US by vowing to go forward with its own attack regardless. Israel is basically a fourth branch of the US government (Executive, Legislative, Judicial, and Israel, except Israel should be listed before the rest.) Marco Rubio essentially said this.

2) Iran is a rogue state that is a top money maker within BRICS, hence it's a "hole" in the plans for a CBDC... a remaining state where business can be transacted without the possibility of being bound to digital currency rules. Basically destroying Iran supports the petrodollar and preserves US currency dominance.

3) Israel internally wants a Greater Israel. Mike Huckabee, Zionist shill and nut-case Christian dispensationalist who wants an "end times" war, explained this to Tucker in an interview.

I'm indifferent to Israel. I don't hate Israel and I certainly don't hate Jews. But we're totally fighting Israel's war.

The world is probably better off with a neutered Iran. But the US has an extremely bad track record of rebuilding Middle Eastern countries after toppling their governments. Iraq is finally doing OK but it's held together with duct tape. And look at Libya and Syria.

Iran is probably gonna wind up being yet another consumer of billions in US foreign aid when this is over.

I suspect that Iran won't self govern seamlessly. At best it will turn into a humanitarian nightmare and at worst an even worse government will take over.

Israel and the US are working together to rid the world of Iran. Israel wanted to take out the Ayatollah and other leadership in Iran during the attack last year on Iran's nuclear facilities, but Trump convinced them not to. He wanted to get Iran to agree to give up its nuclear bomb pursuit. He tried diplomatic talks for several months, but they refuse to give up on nukes.

Iran bragged to our Diplomat, Steve Witcoff, during their last meeting that they have enough enriched uranium to make 11 nuclear bombs in a matter of weeks. That was the wrong thing to say and why they were bombed shortly thereafter.

There's no doubt that Israel is a big influence on our government. They are our best ally in the ME. The US and Israel can save the world from Iran through their partnership. The US will take out the infrastructure and Israel will take out the leaders. Someone has to fight the great evil in the world.

Ever since Mike Huckabee became Ambassador to Israel he changed from a down to earth minister from Arkansas into a Zionist. I didn't hear the Tucker interview, but Huckabee has talked about what the Bible says Israel is entitled to.

Trump is going to oversee who they pick to run Iran on an interim basis. It looks like the same thing he is doing in Venezuela.

The rest of what you stated is a variation on the same Biblical dispensationalist creed. Casting Iran as ultimate evil.

Sounds like you care a lot what Israel wants and thinks. I believe Israel is fucking nuts.

The war action 100% down the line contradicts what Trump stated in his campaigns multiple times and what he ran on.

The US is in over its head. We have no idea what pieces will be in play. And from what I've been reading a ground invasion is pretty much certain. The scale of this and the bloodshed will be a lot more like Vietnam than Iraq.

Half a dozen

I've seen at least half a dozen narratives. I think that's intentional. Get people confused and switched off.

I think what's happening is the Pharisees are weakening china. China is the biggest threat. Here, Iran is supplying oil to China and relatively cheaply. So removing that source of oil weakens china.

Undoubtedly, China is very unhappy with what the US and Israel are doing. Iran was their cheap oil source and now it will no longer be dependable. Plus, the leadership in Iran that China worked with is gone. Its a major set back for them. First, they lost Venezuela as an oil source and now Iran can no longer be depended on.

Weakening China so they can't attack Taiwan is the icing on the cake. I read somewhere in the past month that the US has been importing more goods from Taiwan than China. That's got to hurt.

I just said Huckabee talked about what the Bible says Israel is entitled to. They're entitled to a lot more ME land than just Gaza. Huckabee said Israel isn't interested in doing anything like that.

Israel just wants to live in peace and safety in their region. Trump wants peace in the ME and it won't happen if Iran has nukes. The arab countries in the region are happy the US and Israel are destroying the Iran regime. It has been the bully in the region for almost 50 years.

I don't see this as another Vietnam War. I think it will be fast. The US is destroying Iran's entire military weaponry from the air and sea. That's the mission. As far as the ground mission goes, the US is using armed Kurdish fighters on the ground in Iran. This will end up like Venezuela did. Some existing or interim leadership will take hold to stabilize the country.

Every Muslim Country Needs Reform or Regime Change

by FSK, Saturday, March 07, 2026, 00:03 (41 days ago) @ JoFrance

Every Muslim country needs to, at a minimum, implement these reforms.

1. Make it legal to publicly criticize Islam.
2. Make it legal to convert away from Islam.
3. Anyone who commits violence objecting to (1) or (2) needs to be treated like a criminal.
4. No more treating non-Muslims as second class citizens.

If they refuse, they should be bombed and conquered. This needs to happen with ALL Muslim countries. Iran just happens to be the biggest troublemaker and biggest offender. Even "enlightened" countries like Saudi Arabia or UAE fail on 1-4 above.

Maybe Iran will lead the way to that now that they're free of the Islamic hard-line regime. Iran was once a more western country in 1979. Look at this picture. Its hard to believe considering what Iran is like for women today. They need to get back to this.

Now that the hard-line Islamists are gone in Iran, other countries will become more moderate when it comes to Islam. Its going to take awhile, but at least they may be on the path.
