News snippet: United States President Donald Trump has said that Washington is considering “strong options” in response to the protests in Iran, including possible military intervention.
“We’re looking at it very seriously. The military is looking at it, and we’re looking at some very strong options. We’ll make a determination,” he told reporters on board Air Force One late on Sunday.
He said Iran’s leadership had called, seeking “to negotiate” after his threats of military action, and that a “meeting is being set up”.
But he added that “we may have to act before a meeting”.
Trump’s latest threat came as Iranian leaders issued a stark warning against military intervention, with Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf saying “In the case of an attack on Iran, the occupied territories [Israel] as well as all US bases and ships will be our legitimate target”.

I’ll be curious to see how any moving on Greenland and the subsequent shutting off of their international bases and ports by host nations play into Iran airstrikes. Would pretty effectively expose that while powerful the US relies on its allies also.

I have to admit I did not see war with Venezuela, Greenland, Mexico and Iran happening all at the same time.

„very strong“ is the term he uses when he has absolutley no idea what to say.

At this point, would it be quicker to list the countries that Trump & Petey are NOT considering military operations against?

Trump’s own Gestapo kill and attack protestors in the street.
It’s ironic he’s threatening to defend Iran protestors.

We live in a country where a billionaire pedophile president can talk about military plans in the Middle East. He has immigration officers in America harassing and murdering civilians, running oil jobs while bombing cartels (and making money), and intentionally causing dissent between his own people and then blah blah blah about Greenland.

Trump’s Venezuela move actually looks strategically calculated rather than impulsive.
China has been Venezuela’s primary oil customer under sanctions, and Chinese diplomats were reportedly in Caracas days before the U.S. action to shore up deals with Maduro, which suggests Beijing viewed Venezuela as strategically important. Disrupting that relationship isn’t about the U.S. “taking oil,” it’s about denying China access to sanctioned, discounted crude and signaling limits to Chinese influence in the Western Hemisphere, something even Reuters has noted in its coverage of Beijing’s reaction. At the same time, Iran is in turmoil, with nationwide protests over economic collapse and mismanagement, leaving its energy sector and exports under domestic and international stress.
China relies heavily on Iranian oil, especially via sanction-dependent channels, so instability in Iran adds another layer of pressure on Beijing’s energy security. While this alone doesn’t “solve” Taiwan, energy and logistical vulnerabilities are a key input in China’s risk calculations and raising costs, uncertainty, and operational friction matters when contemplating a massive, fuel-intensive operation like a Taiwan invasion. In that sense, these moves function as strategic deterrence using economic and geopolitical leverage, not direct military action.

Trump says anything to keep anyone from asking follow ups to illegally withholding 99% of the epstein documents. Why they didn’t release their legally required reasons for redactions.
And democrats are of course doing nothing like normal. How is the opposition party this fucking bad.

How is bombing Iran helping with the civic unrest there? It will only help the regime, as it will make the demonstrators appear as US stooges. It can only make things worse.
He just does not know when to shut up!!!

He said he would intervene if violence is used against peaceful protesters. So either he acts because he said he would otherwise he would appear as a coward or the Iranian regime bribe him with gold and nothing happens.

I mean now would be the time, to help the protestors. And I do mean NOW. We already opened that can of worms so you might as well help the people and do it fast.
Would I trust him to do it right though? Hell I guess not.
