    Yes. Trump is hoping a change of regime will bring Iran back to how it was in the 1970s.

    I think the US will directly engage in an attack, this specifically to destroy the underground nuclear facilities that Israel lack the capacity to impact.

    If Iran surrendered, went through a regime change, or voluntarily surrendered their enriched uranium/any completed weapons then this might be avoided. The US would probably prefer that outcome, but it doesn't seem likely to happen.

    The Israelis would love the US to engage, and may otherwise be hoping the threat of their engagement makes one of the above more likely. Perhaps the Iranians will be spooked into moving the materials that are the target, making it potentially easier to attack - Mossad seem to be deeply ingrained into the Iranian political and military structures, so if this happens they'll be on it.

    Yes, on two counts
    1) It is an oil nation - USA acts by default
    2) The most dangerous man in the world - the Orange One - is at the helm. Instability personified.

    They already are, as are the UK, by proxy.

    It’s indirect at this point, but much like the Israeli genocide of Palestine, both the US and UK are complicit through military assistance and public statements that ask Iran to de-escalate having been attacked by the genocidal state of Israel.

    Directly, probably. It's the same old tired ******** as Iraq and weapons of mass destruction. Iran doesn't have nukes and is a long way off having them. Even Tulsi Gabbard, Trump's own Director of National Intelligence (hah) said as much a few months ago.

    It's all just lies and misdirection.

    Yes; simply to test their biggestly bomb, the biggestly bomb in the world, a bomb the likes of the world has never seen before, a bomb only the USA could build.

    If so, how do you explain the underground seismic tremors, nowhere near geological fault lines, and without any aftershocks? For me it's most plausible that these were nuclear tests, and indicative that they had enough enriched uranium and competence to be testing nuclear explosions.

    I don't think the US will help Iran, in the same way as China is "not helping" Russia.

    Trump pulling USA out of the Iran Nuclear deal in his last term as president caused what's happening now.

    Watch Threads then decide.

    A nuclear war is futile on the grander scale of things.

    So let me get this right, it's ok for Israel to bomb the **** out of the hospitals in Gaza, commit unspeakable war crimes, set to on Iran but then a retaliatory attack from Iran and here they are playing the victim again, saying this hospital in Southern Israel was the intended target. They're an absolute disgrace.

    Indeed they are. The terrorist, genocidal state of Israel. Our close allies.

    Makes me sick.

    Yep, reminds me of the Viz page, Was it SWANT? Special weapons and no tactics. "Get me some guns, and make them big guns"
