Because they will smoke 100 people, 99 of whom are terrorists actively trying to blow up civilian cargo, but 1 is the wife of a terrorist, fully on board with his actions, and she'll be there cooking and cleaning for them and get blown up as well. But the media will pull her out of context and say the US is killing 'totally innocent iranians' and turn it into a huge PR incident.

This is fan fiction.
Just like the mainstream media, yes.

Won't this fuck with their water? This seems like a huge escalation for a war that was "complete". Civilians are the ones that will suffer the most from this.

Extreme cope. You're claiming this cunt Trump of all people gives a single shit about PR? Lmao...
Bold of you to assume that the Trump administration gives a single shit about the oppressed Iranian citizens.
We all know, that bombing a regime and leaving fixes absolutely zero problems, and succeeds only in breeding more zealots as their nation's infrastructure is torn to pieces. We've made this mistake how many times in the Middle East?

Aimed at what...exactly? So funny how "the west" is held to some impossibly high standard of precision but the other guys can just chuck hardware into the air, fingers crossed, and the press gives them a free pass on where it lands.

Iran would rather face a physical death than a ideological one. This war will only be finished imo with a complete capitulation of Iran by American ground troops or something else major.

Yeah, this regime only cares about themselves.
So only two realistic options are on the table, make peace with them or totally destroy them (full on ground invasion)

But the media has been doing this to Israel for decades, so why don't the US just let Israel take care of the problem? I don't know why the US has to be the ones doing it

Killing 150 children did very little to move the needle in the Trump base, they accepted any one of the stories, how it did not happen or Iran did it or they just put a school too close to their (possibly AI hallucinated) naval base.
See now also how threatening attacking civilian infrastructure is not terrorist anymore when Trump does it but Fuck Yeah America Gloves Are Off.

A surprising and alarming amount of 'it's fine for Iran to have nuclear weapons' sentiment in this thread, considering their current terroristic position towards the strait. This is a tiny fraction of the leverage an Iran with nukes would have.
Relying on MAD and hoping for the best with Islamic terrorists is suicidally reckless as a policy to begin with, but most of Europe cannot even meet the 'mutually assured' part of this equation.

Iran's nuclear program was totally and utterly obliterated last year by the biggest bombs dropped by the most beautiful planes.
How can they have rebuilt decades of work so quickly to now be an imminent threat?

No matter how the war shakes out brace for impact. Im going on holiday to the Maldives early next month and am assuredly confident that the next time I can go on vacation on a reasonable budget is well into the next year if that.
The world energy shock is coming
The US and Israel's illegal attack on Iran will provoke a global economic catastrophe

This is what I don't understand. Wasn't it all completed in the middle of last year. They were so happy with their accomplishment. I'm a bit confused.

because every nation who attacks other nation always creates fake narratives that would give them legitimacy for attacking others.

What do you think the secret 'real reason' for specifically attacking Iran's nuclear facilities was if it wasn't an attempt to debilitate their nuclear weapons program, as advertised?
If Iran then comes into negotiations bragging that it wasn't as effective as you thought and that they are actually still capable of quickly acquiring functional nuclear weapons, then you have to re-evaluate. Taking the risk of assuming Iran was only bullshitting for leverage was apparently not a risk the US administration was willing to live with.

Ugh, woe is me. A terrorist state butchering its own people are causing my vacation cost to go up. UghhhNo matter how the war shakes out brace for impact.

Bro, we work our ass off day in and day out and I know for me I try to be a decent person every day. Why should we be struggling to live when we work our asses off in a western world.
If a country is killing its own people, that's horrific. Is that what you believe is why the US stepped in. To save Iran's own people from their government?
It's obviously all complicated but why did this war happen now. Why is the us saying it's not at war when it started this war?
I'm confused as much as many.
What are the strategic reasons that the US started this war?

Been thinking about getting a hybrid, I don't want one that I have to plug in though because our complex only has 2 charging stations and the number of teslas in the parking lot has been growing steadily lol.

Mate, the school was previously part of compound the IRGCN have their headquarters in.
Yes, sometimes intel is wrong, and sometimes even the best munitions aren't accurate enough.
It's the only major civilian casualty event caused by the US and Israel, which in a war is an expectionally low amount of collateral damage.
I assume your just handwaving away Iran's far worse record of collateral damage in this war.

Lol im suporting the iranians that are on socmed. Believe me I want to see that regime fall. For good.
However, doesnt change the fact that people less lucky than me are gonna feel the brunt of it in a couple of months. Both can be true.

Plug in hybrids (PHEV) can also use a regular wall outlet (if you can park close enough to it) its just a much slower charge
Even total EVs can use a regular wall outlet it just will take a week to charge it
Our Jeep Wrangler 4XE only goes around 20 miles in all electric mode which is perfect for driving around town for us and we always plug it in a regular wall outlet to charge
When the main battery drains it then becomes a regular hybrid which is still decent on gas, for a Wrangler anyhow
