They just had to with the title huh.
Congress not doing its job again and letting the orange toddler invade another country with no consequences.

Mediate is just reposting it. Give the original journalists the credit.
How's that "peace president" going for you now, MAGAt fuckheads?
This is all a distraction from him RAPING CHILDREN. That nasty old bastard is starting wars just to try to get us to stop focusing on the fact he was mentioned 38-fucking-THOUSAND times in the trumpstein files.
Bombshell report
I see what you did there.
This pedo fucked so many kids.
So let's check the MAGA scoreboard:
America First, no foreign entanglements - tell it to Venezuela, Iran, Greenland, NATO, Canada, Mexico, Colombia, Cuba, and more.
Lowering Prices on Day One - Day 400, and prices keep rising.
Release the Epstein Files, and expose all those Democrats - Whoops it's nearly ALL wealthy MAGAs, nothing important.
Lower the Deficit/National Debt - During a MAGA administration? Don't be silly, that's only for Democrats.
Deporting Criminals - Mostly deporting asylum seekers, people going through the legal process, mothers, fathers, school kids, dying children and adults, veterans, etc., all without due process.
Making America Safer - They could have taken credit for an historic downturn in crime, but instead they released Paramilitary Death Squads into the streets to beat and murder innocent citizens in spontaneous firing squads.
Punishing all your Liberal enemies - turns out, even MAGA judges won't go along with something so illegal and unconstitutional.
So, at this point, what's the attraction? The open, enthusiastic corruption? The gaslighting right to your face? The virtuosic incompetence? The concentration camps they're building?
I'll bet it's the Pedophilia. All MAGAs are pedophiles, by either being one, or excusing and defending MAGA, who are, like I said ALL pedophiles.
Most peaceful president of the entire history. If you consider that war is peace.
War is peace. The chant is simple. Ignorance is strength, The less we know, the less can break us. Freedom is slavery, Choice is a burden kindly removed. Two minutes of hate, A lifetime of calm. The guns speak loudly So the mind can stay quiet. War is peace. Repeat until it is true.
That's not very becoming of an anti-war president, recipient of the exclusive and coveted FIFA peace prize.
Surely the "no new wars" people will stand up against the tyranny of their government.... any day now...
Clarification: I mean the people who said they voted Trump because they bought his convenient "no new wars" lie -- NOT people who actually don't want wars.
People only like to fight tyranny when its a mossad operation
And the world renowned "Doormat for US Imperialism" prize:
He proved his commitment to Peace, when he changed the name of the Dept of Defense to the Dept of War. That's the kind of commitment that the Nobel Committee looks for in a candidate, and we all know how committed Trump should be.
Surely this goes agains the spirit of the noble Fifa Peace Prize.
This is really going to hurt his chances of being nominated for The 7-Eleven Big Gulp© of Peace.
I dunno, Trump knows how to gulp I hear.
"Please stop talking about how I am a child rapist."
-- Trump planning to invade Iran
Because wars always, always, always boost support of a President in the USA.
Vietnam didn't help LBJ.
Reagan, Bush, Bush again..
Also, read more, LBJ was elected again in 64, he choose not to run again and just drink himself to death.
When it comes to Iran, I just want the people to be free from their oppressors finally. If the current clown in office is the one who will take all the credit for freeing them from those psychotic freaks in power, then so be it. But who knows when it comes to Trump? He says things and sometimes actions follows, but most of the time he just says shit to confuse and distract people. I cannot wait for the day he leaves politics.
So we are going to "free" Iran again? Pardon me while I go throw up.
Truly, I too hope that the Nazi pedophile empire bombs Iran, in order to free them. "Them" refers to Israel, specifically. I hope he frees Israel from having any regional opponents. As for the Iranian people, they'll have to pay for opposing America.
Uh... wut?
Isreal has been beefing with Iran forever and they have the most to gain from destabilizing Iran.
I challenge you to lookup all the times throughout history that Isreal had a problem with Iran's nuclear program.
Also, did you forget the current Iranian government is a reactionary response to the last coup attempted by the US on Iran where the US installed a murderous dictator? Kind of reminiscent of Hussein or Putin.
That may all be true, but I still want the Iranian people to be free from their oppressors.
And if we are going to make excuses for terrible regimes, then we might as well give Israel the same get out of jail free card because the only reason they have become what they have become is because they have been hunted and pushed out of close to every country they have lived in, including the territory that is currently named Israel. They have not been accepted in the middle east and have been attacked since the beginning.
But unlike you I'm not gonna use that history to justify their current behavior and disregard for human life. They are responsible for their war crimes in the same way the regime in Iran is responsible for their crimes and genocide against their own people.
No amount of victimhood on history justifies their conduct and I want the Iranian people to be free.
Would you trade their oppression for an even worse one. Are you fine with America and Israel making the decision like so many nations have done so before.
Iran has had no less than three coups in the 20th century and major powers such as the US have been heavily involved with several regime changes
Are you advocating that this has been good for Iran and it needs a nation to bomb, to invade, and replace their leadership. Do you think they have no right to self determination.
No one is making excuses for their shitty regime with large amounts executions being their most reprehensible actions. Not to mention massive social oppression like what is happening right now.
I don't think that anything positive is going to come from Trump and Netanyahu murdering more innocents. Are we really saying that the only way forward is to allow the US to fuck with their country another time now?
Seems obvious enough to me. What's not to get?
First off...
Fuck Israel, genocidal scum!
And to think...the government of Norway could have totally avoided all this, if they'd just given him the Nobel Peace Prize when they had the chance. Now we're heading straight into WW3, all because the Prime Minister of Norway doesn't know who he works for. smh.
/s
Some kind of "special operation" then?
Yuppy. It's because all good buddies are getting arrested or losing their jobs over seas.
And it’s still getting drowned out by his association with Epstein.
Bored of peace
According to Axios, this is why (I'm guessing it's mostly about the oil because he's a moron):
- Long-running nuclear dispute. The U.S. and Iran have had off-and-on talks about striking a nuclear deal for months.
- Protester killings
- He already sent aircraft carriers with threats - Chekhov's aircraft carrier
- Pressure from Israel
- The oil factor
- A sense of regime weakness

It is 100% Israel.
Attacking Iran would destroy they oil markets.
Hmm I thought the main reasons would be that there is a great public support for a regime change right now especially among Iranians and that there is a potential new leader (the son of the Shah) who might provide stability afterwards.
Has trump ever been known to think about that kind of stuff? lmao.
Bully smells weakness.
Bullys are weak. Distraction and legacy are all he's concerned with
