Negative. This is blatant misinformation and rewriting of history to fit a narrative.

At the start of the conflict, notice the third bullet:

U.S. President Donald Trump announced the strikes in an eight-minute video posted to Truth Social shortly after operations began. He framed the action as major combat operations with these core justifications:

- To defend the American people by eliminating imminent threats from the Iranian regime, described as a "vicious group of very hard, terrible people."

- Iran's "menacing activities" directly endangered the U.S., U.S. troops, bases overseas, and allies.

- Preventing Iran from ever acquiring a nuclear weapon — Trump reiterated that Tehran "can never have a nuclear weapon" and accused the regime of rejecting opportunities to renounce nuclear ambitions while rebuilding its program and developing long-range missiles.

- Broader historical grievances: For 47 years, Iran had chanted "Death to America," supported terrorism and proxies, waged campaigns of bloodshed, and targeted the U.S. and others (referencing events like the 1979-1981 hostage crisis).

Dude…Bibi has literally been telling the world that Iran is “two weeks away” from a nuke for the last twenty years. When the dust finally settles on this one, it won’t be long until we hear the same argument the next time the Israelis want to drop bombs on Iran. How many times do you need to hear the same worn out argument before you realize you’ve been duped by the boy who cried wolf?

Have the Iranians been actively attempting to develop nukes? Of course they have? Have they been two weeks away from that capability for the last twenty years? Almost certainly not. Are there far less disruptive ways to address the problem? Of course there are, but they’re less likely to result in the lavished praise Netanyahu and Trump so desperately seek. This whole thing is about egos.

To cut & run now translates concession. An outcome the enemy hasn’t earned. Seemingly undeterred by the last trimming, confident they know us better than we them. Our leader climbed to power on bold risk taking and deal bluster. Also has a piece of an ear missing. But neither fuehrer nor savior. Denies having ever lost an election. Dismiss any chance of US admitting failure here.

I would have been happy had any side done this over the last 47 years. Time to close their chapter in history.

Yield to Tyranical Theocracy who repeatedly burns our flag and boasts how they can Contamaciously shout and chant "Death to America"?

I certainly welcome and end to the war, and its subsequent benefits to the global economy......

It always used to bother me in my youth during sports how some people who try to get in cheap shots, and if you retaliated it was often you were penalized (the original infraction often unnoticed by officials) but damnmit the MFer never tried it again. Older, wiser and competitions more pressure packed I often tolerated such cheap shots.......but is that right????

I don't really no how I feel at this point. Cognitive dissonance.

We’ll be mired in the region for a decade or more trying to “close their chapter in history”, we won’t achieve the objective, and the second and third order effects will leave us worse off than when we started. How many times do you need to see this movie to know how it ends? Unbelievable the naïveté of people who should know better, but have decided to go all in on their “team’s” spin machine.

The alternative is a Nuclear Iran. Unbelievable the naïveté of people who should know better, but have decided to go all in on their “team’s” spin machine. It's funny how that works.

Sounds like right now it’s an Iranian battle between the realists and the true believers. Realists know that once they reach total oil storage capability and start capping wells those oil fields will be permanently degraded - unless they get fracking technology from the Americans. True Believers will take their little speed boat and go out to engage a missile cruiser while saying it is all the will of Allah.

Sounds like you’re sold on worst case. Our objectives meritless. But are they really? Deny a preeminent state sponsor of Sharia code ICBM/MIRV leverage. Ensure safe passage of vessels on a critical free trade route. Create precedent that nuke ambitions short of existing superpowers capability will inevitably face deterrence at a cost too high to bear. Big picture wise, I’m more than less encouraged, so far, this move CAN payout.

I found a transcript from the Twitter type speech by Trump.

You are correct.
What I stated about when Trump first used Iranian nuke development as a justification for starting this war is objectively false.
You rightly called me out on it.
I Am embarrassed and should be less careless when I assert a fact. ( as opposed to conclusions drawn)

Mea Culpa.
