Paranoid would indicate worry and I’m not worried. Just observing. And our intel in Iran and Russia is poor to nonexistent now. Definitely Russia is engaged in a quid pro quo with Iran for their drones and next ballistic missiles. Iran isn’t giving those things to Russia out of the goodness of their heart. If our intel was what you assert there would never be a problem because we would know and prevent everything.
Great, but why would ISIS start bombing Iran now?Because ISIS doesn’t see Iran as part of the arab world. They’re seen as persians. Not arabians. ISIS and Iran have been feuding for a long time. They recently bombed iran and killed 84 people. Also, reuters is now reporting the missles hit more than 40 kilometers from the US consulate. Lol, twitter claims another.
ISIS considers the Shia branch of Islam to be heretical and has targeted shrines and religious sites in Iran previously.

Iran is trying to justify expansion in the mid east. Whenever “they” say it’s isis take it with a grain of salt. Isis is an unintelligible organization that is being used for political purposes on a consistent basis.
Hey I have a question for you. You think this is some sort of new phase the world is going through or what? Do you think hostilities are going to subside and not escalate?
Yep. And I was pointing out that tweet earlier to show that a missile strike by Iran on ISIS will have things like "near a US consulate" or "in the same area as recent US base attacks". We've had proxy wars for years and they've used propaganda to get everyone to support them. We backed ISIS militants in Syria to fight Assad and then would hunt those same people when they took their profits to Afghanistan to wage war with us.... and would turn right around and fund them again when they showed back up in Syria.

Kinda feels that way doesn't it. This one doesn't look good.
Totally agree. Iran making lots of unpleasant noise.
Trump was working on peace deals in the ME. Lots of leftist like to say they didn't do anything and that's why it broke down so quick but it's the man in office that caused it to implode.
They wouldn't meet it. They'd be dead before they saw it.
Agreed. Embarrassingly painful times back then.
If we let him play on the US basketball team I'm sure all would have been forgiven.
I tend to agree. You can't even go to the weather channel to check the weather forecast without seeing multiple video's and articles about a new ice age, global warming and all the ice melting, an impending collision with an asteroid, blah, blah, blah.
Well if there is going to ever be a global war, it most certainly is closer, no "seems" about it.
You haven't been looking at legit polls then. They all show 80% of MAGA don't want to be involved at all but enjoy bending facts to make a point.
The trend of Americans leaning towards international engagement, as opposed to isolationism, has seen growing support across both parties – even the America-first MAGA wing of the Republican Party, which leads the way with 73% support for greater international involvement, according to the new survey. Meanwhile, 69% of Republicans support the idea, as well as 65% of Democrats, the survey found.
If you use terms like "isolationism" and "Iran threat"... you will get a skewed answer. People like Rasmussen and Baris who have proved over the last 10 years to be more honest and more accurate in their polling have shown that MAGA pubs do not want to be involved. You go ahead and try to make this case and when pubs lose the midterms you'll blame Trump and not the NeoCon wing that keeps beating the drums of war.... but you don't care about the future... so there's that.The trend of Americans leaning towards international engagement, as opposed to isolationism, has seen growing support across both parties – even the America-first MAGA wing of the Republican Party, which leads the way with 73% support for greater international involvement, according to the new survey.

The survey was released less than a day after the Trump administration ordered a massive surprise strike on Iranian nuclear sites in a move designed to cripple Iran's nuclear weapons infrastructure. Approximately 73% of registered voters questioned in a recent Fox News national survey said they think Iran poses a real security threat to the U.S."

I'm likely wasting my time but how about linking a couple of those polls. I can't find them.
"over the years" isn't today. Show me their last poll results on the subject. If not since Trump took office, I don't see their relevance. Why would anyone?
