Just think how close we could've been to avoiding all of this. If something happens, I refuse to be drafted and I refuse to enlist for another pointless conflict. F the military complex and f Donald Trump.

Amen, this is a massive scam.

[Progressive Pessimist]

I don't think we're necessarily going to engage in a full scale-war, but I think we will see an almost as bad never-ending cycle of provocation and retaliation until a Democratic President gets elected and has the unenviable job of finding some way to clean up this mess of self-fulfilling prophecies once again!

When will this country stop allowing history to repeat itself!?

Lmao the army wouldn’t take you even if there was a draft.

I will take your spot from Australia if you are that soft.

Go ahead. I will not die in a conflict that could've been avoided with a little common sense.

The US cannot take 20 American casualties and do nothing. No doubt there will now be direct attacks on Iran.

And anyone who says Hillary would have done anything close to this is a liar or mentally retarded.

Given Iran targeted military sites only, I hope the orange moron won't attack any civilian targets.

Hopefully it's untrue, I'm just going by what I'm seeing here.

Stickied for a couple days.

[Convicted Felon Donald Trump]

Iran had no choice but to retaliate.

We now have no choice to escalate things.

All could have been avoided had Donald Trump not chosen to assassinate an Iranian official, a target that was avoided by both George W. Bush and Obama under the correct calculation that such a move would spark a war and/or result in high casualties.

Trump would not have assassinated an Iranian official had he not been impeached.

He would not have been impeached had he not broken the law.

Trump has blood on his hands. Every life lost going forward in this conflict is directly on his shoulders.
