Donald Trump appeared to offer confirmation that the United States is now participating in Israel’s attack on Iran in a Tuesday social media post.
Amid escalating tensions and the exchange of bombings after Israel attacked Iranian nuclear facilities last week, Trump has faced questions about the extent of U.S. involvement in the conflict.
In a new post on Truth Social using the term “We,” Trump wrote: “We now have complete and total control of the skies over Iran. Iran had good sky trackers and other defensive equipment, and plenty of it, but it doesn’t compare to American made, conceived, and manufactured “stuff.” Nobody does it better than the good ol’ USA.”
Hey Republicans, you can fire him at any point. You can also reign him in at any time. Why aren’t you?
Do you have any idea how much money war brings to the USA?
We all know how this is gonna go if we go down this path. Ah, the good ol’ days.
You mean the old good old days?
I forgot about those! I totally had some as a kid, you have brought back some memories.

Our economy is just about fucked, so why not start a war? That’s what we do, right?
“Be vewy vewy quiet. We aww in totaw contwow now.”
And his cultists will have conveniently forgotten about our abandonment of the Kurds during his first term, and suddenly be pro-expansionism again…
The narrative was that Israel had gone behind his back and it made him look weak. Now it looks like Israel is winning and Trump needs to claim he was part of it. No, not “part of it”, the reason why.
Particularly in foreign politics, he badly needs a win: turns out international trade is not as easy as imposing tariffs and waiting for countries to call him with big offers and Diplomacy (who knew) takes more than a “Vladimir stop” post on social. He needs something quick to show in-between golf games to get his popularity above “get my teeth drilled by the dentist” level again.
Behind the scenes, it’s a complete Cluster Fuck. Good luck to those in the military or planning on joining who did not vote for the orange turd. For the MAGA in uniform, you deserve the shit that is going to fly all over the place with this war.
I wonder how long this has been in planning. Technically, the US military is prepared for desert operations.
Sure pal, yeaaa, like he did with the Ukraine-Russia war right ? The way he lied to everyone and still does, the way he does not say that other people behind him are in charge and not him. Once again the US along with it’s friends does it again!
Even if we aren’t. He will claim the W and act like it is all him. His ego needs it right now.
So is Trump claiming that in under 12 hours the US cleared the entirety of Iran of air defense systems?
Pressing X to doubt here
With how powerful our military and air force is honestly it’s more believable than not.
As powerful as it is, it’s still bound by laws of physics and all. They need to go there, setup camp, plan, execute, etc.
The US Army is strong, sure, but it ain’t a god
in under 12 hours the US cleared the entirety of Iran of air defense systems
Given how insanely powerful the US Armed Forces can be, objectively speaking, that’s honestly not entirely unbelievable.
live near a US Air Force Base. It hasn’t mobilized.
I know, just saying out of all the unrealistic bullshit that comes out of Trump’s mouth hole, this isn’t that unrealistic.
Meanwhile Iran sent a few more missiles to Israel last night. That’s how much credibility this clown has.
This is probably how that bill will be passed in the senate. US goes to war… we need to spend spend spend!
ConflictWAR with IranArmed conflict is the legal proper term for war. War is a layman’s expression. Armed conflict has more legal and ethical weight.
I know armed conflict mongering when I see it 🙃
Appreciate the info though friend. Thanks.
No, here war mongering is the correct term. It’s a layman’s expression to denote a particular political attitude that seeks to stir conflict for political gains or profit. It has no legal connotation either. You might be interested on the term war profiteering, a term that doesn’t exist under International Humanitarian Law, but has been discussed for its ethical implications.
“He wasn’t in control at all”
It sounds like he’s talking about American technology used by Israel, not about America acting directly.
