Yeah, about that Assembly of Experts picking the next leader..........

For all the good it did...

“Having Mojtaba take over is the same playbook,” said Alex Vatanka, a senior fellow at the Middle East Institute.

“It’s a big humiliation for the United States to carry out an operation of this scale, risk so much, and end up killing an 86-year-old man, only to have him replaced by his hardline son.”

FB friend:
What are the odds that the US has a Plan B if its current plan of "bomb Iran, wait for popular uprising to replace regime with pro-American leader" doesn't work out?
The stages of Bush's Iraq War popular opinion in America:

1: "I'm nervous but excited."
2: "OMG look at the cool explosions on TV! This is awesome!"
3: "Woohoo!! Mission accomplished! Thank you, Mr. President!"
4: "So ... uhh ... why is it still going on? I thought we won."
5: "This is kind of starting to suck."
6: "Wow, this cost us $4 trillion? We should never do that again!"

With Trump's Iran War, we seem to be at stage #2.

Kid got bored with his new toy already, big surprise. At least it happens to be the best move he could make at this point. Not the best move anyone could make, probably, but definitely better than anything else he could ever intend to do.
 

wonko the sane?

You may test that assumption at your convinience.

Yeah, well: someone should tell trump that just because he's done doesn't mean iran is. They have no reason what so ever to stop attacking us facilities and allies.

Yea, he just gave Iran renewed justification for targeting the US and its allies. Once again the man thinks severing diplomatic ties is the solution to everything because 'he's great at making deals'.

Imagine if terrorists started targeting golf courses. That might actually get some attention.

He still wouldn't care unless they hit one of his. But he'd still use it as an excuse to push Operation Epstein Fury.

Claude never surrenders looks for an off-ramp. It keeps ramping up its attacks until it either nukes the enemy or gets itself nuked.

So, minor heads up folks: apparently the FBI is warning of a possible attack by iran in california.

At least they're bothering to warn people this time. The question is whether they're doing anything to try to stop it, or if they're still following the 9/11 playbook on that front.
