We support U Trump ..Iran can only identify Target but they dare not attack any of those target because that would be the end of that Rogue regime that destroyed the prosperity and happiness of Persia .. American B52 bombers on standby to destroy 52 targets in Iran.

Abeg trash...the only reason the Americans care is because of the oil. Like what about the fucker in Cameroon Paul Biya who has been in power since 1982 phucking Cameroon sideways. What about Libya the phucked up.

Iran should better thread with caution. Trump is not Obama o. Someone who promised to build a wall around Mexican border and also cut China to size. as stupid as those campaign promises sounded back then, Trump has already achieved them. He is no politician, he comes from a successful business background. Talk and do. Iran has emotionally talked itself into trouble. Saudi Arabia won't mind attacking US facility codedely and tag it on Iran as any attack on US in the middle East would be deemed an Iranian attack. The mumu egoistic ayetollah won't even want to deny it. Isreal is standing by the corner waiting for the slightest reason to go all out against iran. It's a terrible situation for Iran, they were over pampered by the Obama administration. When Sadam Hussain was alive who know Iran. Democrats made Iran feel like a world power by allowing them access to their frozen funds in exchange for halting nuclear advancement. Iran has been using those funds to fund terrorist organizations like Hezbollah and hamas and fight proxy wars against the US and Isreal. Thank God Trump has shredded d deal and impose heavy sanctions. Let's see where Iran will get d funds to prosecute a full scale war.
so why should the Americans especially Obama administration permit Iran to continue their nuclear program and even give them funds if the Americans are not terrorists themselves.
Americans sponsor terrorists by proxy.
They even use the Japanese to provide these terrorists with Toyota Hilux and Mitsubishi l200 trucks

If person pass your power, just admit it and pledge loyalty to enjoy your life on earth.
As far as life is concerned, we are never the same. Some people are greater than others, some countries are greater than others. The USA due to their strategic alliance with Israel, God's covenant people are greater than other nations' of the world that including China, Russia, Germany, France, Britain etc.

The West is trying to lure Iran to a full blown war but Iran is trying to take the bait.

There are 45 US military bases clustered around Iran. Why do u think there are world powers? Because they can launch a full blown attack at any part of the world in under an hour.

This is not war, this is an invasion. It took d press of a button to kill ur top Army Commander...God forbid I fight a war with ghosts.

Iran is on d brink of collapse. Their grave is already dug, but it seems they want to pour d sand by themselves.

$1 = 42,000 Iranian rial. I have an Iranian friend and he wants the government to use their money to feed d country rather than a senseless war.

Why did Iran put their country close to US bases? grin

[s]America are behaving stupidly n foolishly in this regard. What Iran did to America to justified this stupid acts, u killed top General of a sovereign nation in His soil based on allegation that he sponsored your own defined terrorist same as they defined Saddam Hussein n Ghadaffi, can any nations do the same to America, can they invade their soil and bastardized the place the way America are doing?

This is highly unfair n unjustified drumming of War all because Trump want to win second time n want to stabilize their unholistic economy.
I wished the world can raise up to America n say enough is enough of terrorising small Nations[/s]

If wishes were horses beggers will ride!!

You and who will rise up against America?!

Which country will support Iran that has been sponsoring terrorism around the world, against America that citizens of the world are rushing to live in?

This a President who values the lives of his subjects or citizen's. Imagine Trump threatening to destroy 52 sites of Iran if any threat comes to 52 Americans held as hostages in Tehran?

I'm not a fan of trump but we need such president in Nigeria instead of the one who values his cattles more than the lives of his subjects.

Yes the US is the #1 military power in the world but spending does not necessarily make you the strongest and give you a true advantage. A case in point, the US spends billions to build stealth fighter jets, littoral class warships, the aegis system and so on, these are supposed to be state of the art equipments that are not supposed to fail and should give them an edge in the event of a war. Well unless they are dealing with some 3rd world country without basic defenses.

Russia spends millions to develop missile defense systems such as the S-300 and S-400 that have proven capable at intercepting such cutting edge technology that the US parades all around the world.

If you think the US will lose say 2 or 3 B-2 stealth bombers, or an aircraft carrier or a bunch of destroyers in the event of a war with Iran and they'll keep on coming, then you do not know what you are talking about. And believe me, the Iranians can, if the Syrians using an S-200 Soviet Era missile battery could shoot at and damage the Israeli F-35I over Syrian airspace, then I think the Iranians can do better with help from Russian Voronezh radars. (Israel did deny this ever happened and claimed it was a bird strike). There is something called the cost of war. Just like in Vietnam, if the US sees they are losing they'll just pack up their bags and leave. And this is why other countries have picked and chosen the type of technology to invest in order to deter the US of ever thinking of going to war with it. Think of Hypersonic Weapons, Nuclear Weapons, Submarines et al, they are all weapons of deterrence so that if the war mongering USA thinks it can, they'll be forced to think again.

The US may be able to defeat any conventional army head to head (without use of nuclear weapons) BUT there is a cost to everything. Is it a cost they will be willing to pay knowing fully well if they commit all their resources and lose they become weakened leaving a power vacuum for others such as China to fill.

Iran has an arsenal of short to medium range ballistic missiles that will give the US some trouble especially their bases across the middle east. And Iran will fight dirty through asymmetric means which means this war will only be protracted and the casualties on both sides will be heavier than in any recent wars. And please be reminded as well, WARS ARE FOUGHT AND WON ON THE GROUND AND IN THE HEARTS AND MINDS OF PEOPLE. The Iranians are about 80-90% United behind their leaders. They may protest economic hardships within the country but that does not mean they want a Western imposed democracy, they are doing just fine under their Islamic rule and despite a truckload of sanctions. And eventually, they'll just become more creative and be forced to create from within rather than depend on the outside world. Also just imagine this, the US were never fully able to occupy Afghanistan and Iraq both of which even when combined are not equal in size to Iran. The US is still fighting in Afghanistan till this day. And that is Afghanistan, fighting the Taliban, a bunch of rag tying tribal warlords. How much more a fully motivated Iranian army who are experienced at war and are ready to die to defend their country.

The US is not stupid, if they get lured into a full out war with Iran, it will drag on over another 10 years atleast. The end result will be more deficit to the American economy thereby making America weaker and China stronger in the longer term. Don't forget Iran is a major partner with China when it comes its belt and road initiative. Iran is a Russian ally, in the event of war same as Syria the Russians will limit American Airpower, that means they must put boots on the ground and I guarantee you that will be the undoing of America cos the Iranians know their topography better than anyone else and they have been defending it for the past 2000 years.

I do not like wars and I do not wish for both countries to go to war but if they do, believe me it will not be the outcome everyone thinks. If Iran is wise they'll sit this one out and respond later down the road. If the USA is wise they'll focus on building their domestic issues at home and avoid unnecessary wars.

Iran is not like Iraq, its military and its citizens will defend their
country to the very end
Plus the terrain is extremely hard to navigate, more complex
than that of Afghanistan that billions of $ was wasted on
Trump is just trying to divert attention from his impeachment
brouhaha and this one will shock him cos Russia will likely
side with Iran

Many super nations especially from Asia (China,Korea,even
Russia) will indirectly side Iran just to clip US's feathers and
dominance.
If the war happens,Russia or China will be the next world
power

According to wold news, Trump tweeted till late midnight yesterday showing that he is very much concern about what will be the next move by Iran. Both Bush and Clinton was given the option of assassinated this same man that was killed but they both weight the option and see that the casualty will might be unbearable and it was dropped. Trump single-handedly assassinate and thought there will be no consequences. No one pray for war but he who leaves in a glass house should not throw stone. How many Iranian have you seen outside their country whereas Americans are everywhere.

Hopefully this threat of war between the USA and Iran will fizzle out. There is no point taking sides as all parties in it will be affected and it will also affect proxies in the middle east, Asia, Europe and America.

Truthfully the American foreign policy with seems to be too meddlesome. If Saddam Hussein and Muammar Ghaddafi were left alone the world would not be seeing the kind of crisis facing the middle east and parts of Africa today.
The spill over effect of the American destruction of the Ghaddafi regime is what we even feel now in Nigeria with ISWAP.

We also hope that this attack will not fast track the impeachment of Donald Trump with the House of reps claiming that he did not see authorization to launch that attack.
What are you saying? As long as the Republicans have the majority in the senate, impeachment is a mirage. Trump will surmount impeachment and win his reelection.

You made very important points in your comment. It will be foolishness and stupidity for Iran to start any skirmish with US, considering the role Iran is playing in accommodating and funding terrorism in that region and the world as a whole. The effect of any war with US will further put the Arab region in more sociopolitical and economic problems. So many countries in the Arab world, especially KSA and the west will relish the opportunity to put that government in check. They better not start what they cannot finish.
