Cognitive Dissonance

No silly lil man. But when one president wants to kick everyone's ass, followed by another who just wants to lick their nuts, it's no wonder why everyone over there is a little confused as to how to act with the current president.

Riiigghhhhttt. Iran's just confused, that's all. They just weren't sure if we wanted them to burn down our embassy and kill an American or not. Who can blame them, right?

There's enough blame to go around, but when ya play silly games, ya get silly prizes.

Sooooo.....now they weren't confused after all? Now we're back to everything is America's fault again?

What part of "there's enough blame to go around" went over your head?

No, it just flew right next to your previous claim that they were just confused by changing US philosophies. Those theories don't really coexist very well.

Retaliation against a non-civilian, military target who is operating in a foreign country by a national government doesn't fit any definition of terrorism. You might want to look it up. And no, it is not wrong to retaliate after they attacked our embassy and killed an American. We didn't retaliate when they were disrupting shipping, shooting down our drones or bombing our allies' oil fields. But when you kill Americans, retaliation is necessary. And we retaliated by killing exactly zero civilians. Now, go ahead and explain exactly how that is terrorism. It should be pretty interesting to hear those mental gymnastics.

Its terrorism either way. When a serial murderer gets killed before he can kill more people, I consider that a win.

so you agree that it terrorism from both ends,but that somehow the terrorism executed by US garners a better resolution?
your logic is so twisted here that I think you may have broken your brain.
do you need help? some assistance?
should I call someone to come check on you?

You are both wrong. If I push you one day, then punch you in the face the next day, and then kick you in the shin the next all to terrorize you, then you cannot do anything to physically defend yourself day after day after day. Otherwise, you are a terrorist as well. Stupid logic indeed.

Westerners have been exploiting the region for over a hundred years...but don't let that get in the way of your argument or anything.

Riiigghhhttt.....and the region has been acting the same way for thousands of years....since long before there even WAS a west.....so there's that.

I'm referring to the media, jackass.

Nowhere does it say the word "democrat". In fact it didn't specify anyone at all. So that says something about you automatically assuming.

Also, I guess Michael Moore and Rose McGowan aren't democrats then?

They may not be consciously rooting for Iranians. However, given that it is 100% clear that any American with TDS hates Trump more than they love their country, the net result is the same. Dems, Pubs, Libs, whomever.

I know she's an extreme example (extremes make good examples, don't they?) but look at that mental patient Rose McGowan, actually apologizing to Iran for the US killing their terrorist general. It's things like that, that fuel the perception.

eyy all i think is that we shouldn't have another war

Sooo...you're looking for war with Russia AND Iran...even though Iran just clearly just signaled that they're backing down. Sounds smart....

KILLING TIME is on the left. Of course he does. They love the America-hating terrorist nations.

If I was president I wouldn't be threatening other nations with war in the first place without just cause THEN backing down because I was only talking shit and trying to look tough for my brain dead cult members

Face it dumb ass Trump is a 100% blow hard who betrayed America when he defended Putin and now yet again has made America look weak.

For all the crying you traitors do about Obama and worship a guy who is clearly just as bad its pathetic

Soooo.....maybe you could go ahead and give examples of when he either A) Threatened another nation with war without just cause and B) Where, exactly, he backed down from Iran? Please, I'd love to hear them lol.

It won't matter one bit to you because FACTS scare the shit out people let alone Trump cult members

But here you are,

1. He routinely tossed empty threats of war at NK if they didn't stop developing and testing their nuclear abilities. At the same time bragging about him and Kim writing love letters to each other.

by the way? Trying to bully and dictate to other countries what they can and can't do is 100% laughable. Only America runs about the globe attempting to do such things. Doing so only invites opposition and war.

2. Your Orange Jesus FACTUALLY stated than if Iran attacked an American base not only would he strike them again. He would destroy Iranian Historical sites.

This is what Trump FACTUALLY said and had he done so? It would have been a war crime.

He backed down right after Iran FACTUALLY attacked an American base 2 bases as a matter of fact.

3. I am actually happy he back downed. America doesn't need a utter piece of shit imbecile as president during a genuine full blown war.

Finally support a traitor all you like I'll keep my small amount of genuine integrity and sense of morality

Along with my genuine patriotism for country. You and the cult can put Trump the traitor above country

Ok, let's look at your 2 claims here.

A) So, you've decided to completely abandon the "just cause" part of your argument? North Korea doing ballistic missile tests, developing nuclear weapons and threatening their neighbors repeatedly was not "just cause?" Nor was Iran attacking the shipping and oil fields of our allies or them attacking and burning down a US embassy or killing an American contractor? None of these are just causes at all huh? Well, that's an interesting argument. "You shouldn't threaten anyone but burning down their embassy, killing their citizens and funding terrorism, those are fine."

B) Trump "backed down" from Iran? Ok, I'll accept that you are 100% uninformed as to what happened. It's probably not your fault, you probably watched MSNBC or something. Not only did Iran INTENTIONALLY miss every US target is this staged "attack," they even went so far as to WARN our allies (and thereby us) an hour in advance that this was happening to make sure no American got hurt. Why? Because they needed to save face but did not want to face retaliation if they accidentally killed anyone. And how COMPLETELY has Iran backed down? They even made a point of saying, Ok, that's it. That was our "revenge." We'll stop all this crap now if you don't retaliate. AND they are now talking about the complete disbanding of the group that lead the attack against the US Embassy in the first place.

Refusing to stomp on the throat of an enemy who is surrendering is not weakness it's common sense if you aren't interested on going to war. It is utterly insane how propagandized you are. It's actually a little scary.
