@CoachD178 I’m glad you compiled all that data boss hypotheticals are great now if only there was a way to know for sure who was better between Miami and ND like possibly if they could play against one another to determine it on the field
Mark Levin was at the White House today, lobbying for war with Iran. To be clear, Levin has no plans to fight in this or any other war. He’s demanding that American troops do it. We need to stop Iran from building nuclear weapons, he and likeminded ideologues in Washington are now arguing. They’re just weeks away.
If this sounds familiar, it's because the same people have been making the same claim since at least the 1990s. It’s a lie. In fact, there is zero credible intelligence that suggests Iran is anywhere near building a bomb, or has plans to. None. Anyone who claims otherwise is ignorant or dishonest. If the US government knew Iran was weeks from possessing a nuclear weapon, we’d be at war already.
Iran knows this, which is why they aren’t building one. Iran also knows it’s unwise to give up its weapons program entirely. Muammar Gaddafi tried that and wound up sodomized with a bayonet. As soon as Gaddafi disarmed, NATO killed him. Iran’s leaders saw that happen. They learned the obvious lesson.
So why is Mark Levin once again hyperventilating about weapons of mass destruction? To distract you from the real goal, which is regime change — young Americans heading back to the Middle East to topple yet another government. Virtually no one will say this out loud. America’s record of overthrowing foreign leaders is so embarrassingly counterproductive that regime change has become a synonym for disaster. Officially, no one supports it. So instead of telling the truth about their motives, they manufacture hysteria: “A country like Iran can never have the bomb! They’ll nuke Los Angeles! We have to act now!”
They don’t really mean this, and you can tell they don’t by what they omit. At least two of Iran’s neighbors — both Islamic nations — already have nuclear weapons. That fact should scare the hell out of Mark Levin. Yet for some reason he never mentions it. How come? Because it’s not the weapons he hates. It’s the ideology of the Iranian government, which is why he’s lobbying to overthrow it.
It goes without saying that there are very few Trump voters who’d support a regime change war in Iran. Donald Trump has argued loudly against reckless lunacy like this. Trump ran for president as a peace candidate. That’s what made him different from conventional Republicans. It’s why he won. A war with Iran would amount to a profound betrayal of his supporters. It would end his presidency. That may explain why so many of Trump���s enemies are advocating for it.
And then there’s the question of the war itself. Iran may not have nukes, but it has a fearsome arsenal of ballistic missiles, many of which are aimed at US military installations in the Gulf, as well as at our allies and at critical energy infrastructure. The first week of a war with Iran could easily kill thousands of Americans. It could also collapse our economy, as surging oil prices trigger unmanageable inflation. Consider the effects of $30 gasoline.
But the second week of the war could be even worse. Iran isn’t Iraq or Libya, or even North Korea. While it’s often described as a rogue state, Iran has powerful allies. It’s now part of a global bloc called BRICS, which represents the majority of the world’s landmass, population, economy and military power. Iran has extensive military ties with Russia. It sells the overwhelming majority of its oil exports to China. Iran isn’t alone. An attack on Iran could very easily become a world war. We’d lose.
None of these are far fetched predictions. Most of them comport with the Pentagon’s own estimates: many Americans would die during a war with Iran. People like Mark Levin don’t seem to care about this. It’s not relevant to them. Instead they insist that Iran give up all uranium enrichment, regardless of its purpose. They know perfectly well that Iran will never accept that demand. They’ll fight first. And of course that’s the whole point of pushing for it: to box the Trump administration into a regime change war in Iran.
The one thing that people like Mark Levin don’t want is a peaceful solution to the problem of Iran, despite the obvious benefits to the United States. They denounce anyone who advocates for a deal as a traitor and a bigot. They tell us with a straight face that Long Island native Steve Witkoff is a secret tool of Islamic monarchies. They’ll say or do whatever it takes. They have no limits. These are scary people. Pray that Donald Trump ignores them.
You are an absolute moron. France was so thoroughly bankrupted by their support for the American Revolution that it was a major factor in the FRENCH Revolution.
Also, France didn't begin supporting the Patriots until the Battle of Saratoga, which was the turning point of the war, putting the British on the backfoot. They were not writing checks to the Continental Congress the second the Declaration of Independence was signed.
@mikitaisbased Honestly pretty good post but if you knew your history better you would know the French bankrupted themselves funding us which led to the king and queen being executed and driving the country into complete anarchy for over a decade. Is that what you would like America to do?
@ttayehh24@disclosetv Well historically speaking we made the British pay us all their gold reserves in WW2 for support. As well as forcing British and French pay us back after world war 1. The US doesn’t give support for free one way or the other we get ours. Also the US had to pay the French back
@juliavkril True but also true is that Ukraine is losing and we’ve already spent over 250 billion in taxpayers money trying to keep a sinking ship afloat. One only can wonder what that could have done for the American people if it wasn’t just set on fire by our government
@Cluffalo Just gonna be honest the conservatives have sold us out more than the liberals every have. At least the liberals believe in the slop they are trying to get passed the conservatives just blindly sell out the people for profit
@slicktp441@CBSSportsCFB@CoachNeuheisel@JonesN4mo I’m saying they have a better record combined with Bama’s 2 terrible losses. you can’t get shut out by 6-6 Oklahoma and deserve a chance to go to the playoffs
@slicktp441@CBSSportsCFB@CoachNeuheisel@JonesN4mo Bama has 2 losses to .500 teams. Have lost 1/4 of their games. Yes they have a great win over Georgia but if you basically get shut out by a 6 win team I’m sorry that’s unacceptable. Sadly the reality is brand matters and the sec will always get the nod
@RGIII The sec will always get in. your brand means everything in this sport what happens on the field doesn’t matter. Teams just have to know if you aren’t a blue blood you must be perfect because you will not be given the benefit of the doubt like an Alabama or an Ohio state
For all these people saying South Carolina should make the CFP they lost to Alabama and ole miss how could you ever argue they should hop both of them when they all have the same exact record
