    So they think they’ll bomb and invade Iran and knock out its government, then the people will take to the streets and greet them as liberators? Maybe with flowers? I think I’ve heard this one before somewhere.

      Nah. Trump will bomb a couple of random Iranian targets, claim that the grand-pumbah of islam was killed and then he’ll declare victory and leave, just like last time. Iran will shoot 1000+ missiles at Israel, Israel will spend $200million of US military AID to blow up 90% of the missiles and the remaining missiles will kill 17 people and then Iran will declare victory. Israel will sortie 2 American f-16’s to blow up some long abandon “nuclear sites,” and then Benjamin will get his propaganda win.

      At the end of the day a few billion dollars will be wasted, and literally nothing of substance will happen.

        Don’t count on it being so easy. Israel won’t shoot down 90% of missiles. Remember that last year Iran warned israel and told them where the missiles were coming from. This time it could be all-out war, with iran using its newest missile tech.

      Trump will hope that Iran will collapse after a limited missile strike and the angry mobs will do the rest. It won’t be simple and it’s obvious he’s delayed the attack so far.
