Trump's egg lie today is ridiculous, but typical.

Several powerful Iranian-backed militia groups in Iraq are reportedly preparing to disarm for the first time, responding to growing pressure from the U.S. under President Donald Trump to avert a wider conflict, according to a new report by Reuters.

Senior Iraqi officials and militia commanders revealed that disarmament talks have progressed significantly in recent weeks. The apparent shift follows a series of private warnings from U.S. officials to the Iraqi government, threatening military strikes if the militias were not dissolved.

“The factions are not acting stubbornly or insisting on continuing in their current form,” said Izzat al-Shahbndar, a senior Shi’ite politician with close ties to Iraq’s governing alliance. “They are fully aware of the potential for U.S. military action.”

So honestly, WTF happened when pedojoe was in office? A June, 2022 NBC report headlined "Iran-backed militias' attacks against U.S. targets are up. The U.S. hasn't responded with force since last year." There were seven attacks in May, 2022, as many attacks that month as February, March and April combined, and there have been a total of 29 attacks since October without a kinetic U.S. response. Just things like 10/7,

    Yeah!

    The border's secure. And, Iran and its minions, seem to be tucking tail.

    It's not, IMO, so much that Trump's amazing but that "that feckless dementia-ridden piece of crap's" string-pullers were a disaster.

    "reportedly"

    Let's look on the positive side... let's say they do ratchet down the conflict. For how long? Is this like Bush thinking he was going to turn Afghanistan in a Jeffersoinian democracy? You got mortal enemies for thouseands of years and a guy who can only be president for 3-3/4 years. Then you also have the arms manufacturers who are going to make it known they like conflict. And the military who needs to justify their ridiculous budget. And here we have two naive, innocent posters who think Trump is going to save the Middle East and turn the Gaza Strip into a beachfront resort.

    Guys... come on. Time to grow up.

    So now you're saying you don't like terrorists🤣?


  4. by oldedude on April 8, 2025 9:38 am
    I also understand your point. And that was on my mind also.

    First- Are they really? Their known liars. So like you said, it may be or it may not be.

    Second- what are they using the time for?

    Third- are there splinter groups (because they don't speak for everyone) that will still attack.

    Lots more questions, but your questioning this is noted.

    Now that we have Trump saying Europe and other countries need to defend themselves. How about doing the same with some of the countries in the terrorism part of the world doing the same? Israel is loaded with cash - they can pay their own way. Iraq wants to be a real country (which only happened recently in the world history sense)? Then they can work something out with Iran where they (begrudgingly) get along instead of fighting all the time and never accomplishing anything.
