Why should I watch Fox news which is pro Trump and which would lie for Trump? I would rather watch the truth from your so called anti Trump media


The lying CNN that won't verify before they put up stories..

They just settled a lawsuit with Covington Catholic High School student Nick Sandmann, paying out $275 million...

Keep watching CNN and BBC.. They keep hating and putting up fake news yet peeps they hate will keep on going high.

If Iran wants War with America, well hear this,
It will look like the biblical story of Yahweh and Egypt.. The world will wake up one morning only to discover that Iran no longer exist.

Don't ask me how it will happen for I will not tell. ����

Are you sure you read through the article you cited or just decided to use it cos the title suited your argument, help send the link though if you still have it. I read through the 2006 Lebanon war on Wikipedia few minutes ago, the Israelis have been occupying southern Lebanon for more than 15years
The whole of southern Lebanon was occupied by Isreal b4,they move out cause of Hezbollah resistance. Only Shaba farms and 4 villages still remains. Now let us talk about the war of 2006,how come the mighty Isreal loss to Hezbollah?Wikipedia is not a reliable sources,google reliable news website like,BBC,Aljazera,CNN.

Why are you people this daft?

They informed the Iraqi government because they didn't want to cause another trouble of killing foreigners on their own soil. The Iraqi government informed the Americans . That was what happened. Or you think they are terrosit like the USA where they'd kill a terrorist in a foreign soil? No these iranians are intelligent. Moreover it was just a warning strike. If they wanted it to be brutal, they wouldn't have told anyone. Don't be dull, read and digest.
Its obvious your brain is not working well... Go and watch CNN, BBC AND AL JAZEERA... BIRD BRAIN DEY TALK TRASHY TRASH.

They know what Iran is capable of and the surprises up their sleeves. A country that deceived the whole world some years back about stopping their nuclear program. A nuclear program they started in the 1950s and you think they would just abandon it thats if they've not developed weapons of mass destruction yet. I only pity two countries if this situation should escalate. Iraq whose soil will no doubt be turned into the battle ground and that tiny, weak and cry baby country called Israel that relies so much on military support from the us , Europe and all her other allies. Israel would have been a long forgotten country all these decade if not for their sugar daddies in the west that always come to their aid whenever they're in trouble..

You have been very biased in your details from thread to thread. For people that believes your write-up are those who are not exposed to foreign policy or sentimental like you. When you quoted 1950 for the beginning of Iran nuclear program or research, I concluded that your personal judgement beclouded your reasoning. I don't just want to make mouth. Am very versed in international politics. I could have helped you more for any topics you would need but you are brainwashed by your own beliefs.

shocked

Some idiots are saying Iran bypassed US defense system. How would you know when you dont read wide but narrow. There were no missile defense system in the bases. Even the warning system was from US homeland Mississippi. They only had bunkers were the few military personnel went into the moment the alarm was triggered. Mind you that satelite and heat sensors were able to track the projectiles of the missiles. If it were coming to the base that houses over 5000 US personnel, all these talk would not be happening now. Iran would have a rumble of dust by today.

Peace is projected through strength. Trump has achieved his aim by killing Soleiman but would have done more if any life of US soldiers were lost. 'America First' is now a conciousness in the heart of every terrorist and sympathizers.

It will take US according to analysts 30 minutes to destroy 90% military Architecture of Tehran. How do you even compare US military might with that of Iran in open warfare.

And the sense you have made is that buying weapons of mass destruction is of more importance than improving the livelihood of the citizens? Armory comes after livelihood nigga! America, Russia and China do not have hunger issues in their lands, and FYI India and Pakistan are not capable of being on the offensive unless they want to vanish from the globe, them no dey the league abeg. Developing weapons by Iran is a misplaced priority fueled by blood thirt


I get your point but you follow the world the way you see it. The world have gone past stomach infrastructure. The way America is becoming Arrogant and the western world it's better you improve your Arsenal to avoid invasion.

Iran and Pakistan are not push over because of Nuclear weapon it means they can hurt you even if you win the war. No Country want to suffer a loss. America don't want any Country to stand shoulder to shoulder with them. That's why they don't want other countries to have Nuclear weapons. That's one of their strength for manipulation. That's why their craze is limited to Russia and China because they pose the same threat.


I see America as the cause of terrorism not Iran.

but dont you think the US has already achieved its aim but killing the general? Its not like they ever wanted any war. Shame on Iran for firing more than a dozen missiles and not hit anyone.

both achieve their aim
Trump wanted to kill d man ...he succeeded
Iran doesn't want any confrontation with d USA until dey have nuclear weapons....dey ar also getting it

and Iran will even restrategize beta ....not to trust any useless deal by d west ....abi you think because one man was killed dat is all......

UN brokered peace and both parties agreed for ceasefire. there are more human casualties on Lebanon/ Hezbollah side than israel however israel suffered more economically.

crackhouse:
Trump have achieved his aim which is very important to him. .... Iran retaliating without causing any casualty is a win win for trump. Trump kill soleimani and during his burial 40 Iranians died as a result of stampede, Boeing 737 crashed killing mostly Iranians, what else is left? Enough Iranians are dead within few days so it will not be wise for America to continue causing them more grief.



you need to read wide ....the Boeing plane there ar 63 Canadian on it ...while the rest at from 7 different countries

you need leverage before you negotiate. just like how top footballers do

You clearly lack knowledge in what commerce entails. You do not make a simple situation worse and discourage the other party and still claim you are in any position of strenght to negotiate anything.

1) trump backed out of the nuclear deal Obama and the UN engaged Iran in

2) He then attacked an irani top official on iraqi soil and also killed 3 iraqi top officials in the same attack as they were also in the vehicles Soleimani was in

3) Iran now enraged tears up the nuclear deal and refuses to abide by it any longer

Lesson you need to learn. USA has lost all leverage they thought they had before because Trump dumped the nuclear deal first and backed off without consulting the UN or even Iran. Iran is now the one who has leverage because they never broke the deal and stayed faithful which all other UN nations have confirmed.

UN and America have now effectively given Iran leverage no thanks to Trump

Iran won d game after all. Why would US even want war with Iran that is supported by Russia, China and North Korea. Iran is up to the task of striking US any day any time. American citizens may have escaped the missile strike, however, it is still in a slap in their face. Their aircraft and equipment got destroyed! No country in the present world has ever launched missile on US bases and accept responsibility. Iran just did that and US couldn't do a thing. Iran is winning the game!
