- randunel 8mo agoSo US citizens like you actually expect other countries to accept being attacked by you without as little as defending themselves?
- anjel 8mo agoPlease show where I said anything of the sort?
- randunel 8mo agoYou are a us citizen and comment against the right of countries to defend themselves against the us. How come?
- anjel 8mo agoStill reading into my comment and intent. I simply posted as 1. an under-reported fact pertaining to matters of military strategy. 2. The lack of coverage in the US News Media BTW, you're also presumptuous AND mistaken about my nationality. As if nationality is a indicator or in your case a guarantee of a person's ideology.
- padjo 8mo agoIt appears to be the position of much of Europe's leaders too.
- chasd00 8mo agoAnyone can do whatever they want. I’m just saying sinking a us carrier doesn’t stop the conflict and, instead, makes it 2 or 3 orders of magnitude worse.
- tim333 8mo agoAccording to the Times of Israel Khamenei has been killed. I think that already counts as actual war.
- dredmorbius 8mo agoReuters coverage for those interested: "Khamenei's body has been found and he is confirmed dead, Israeli official says" <https://www.reuters.com/world/iran-crisis-live-explosions-tehran-israel-announces-strike-2026-02-28/ https://www.reuters.com/world/iran-crisis-live-explosions-te...> Times of Israel: <https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog-february-28-2026/ https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog-february-28-2026/>
- jopsen 8mo agoI'm not so sure. I think Trump would taco. A carrier is fair game, especially when you shoot first. There wouldn't be a coalition with half of Europe. Because of bridges burned.
