US President Joe Biden has condemned Iranian attacks on military facilities in Israel, pledging a coordinated Group of Seven (G7) diplomatic response while highlighting the United States’s help in taking down “nearly all” of the attacking drones and missiles.
Biden, who cut short a trip to Delaware and returned to Washington, DC to meet advisers over the late Saturday night attack, said in a statement released by the White House that the US forces and facilities had not been hit.
The US president said he reiterated the “ironclad” support for Israel’s security in a call with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, with whom he has had strained relations over Israel’s handling of the war in Gaza.
“Tomorrow, I will convene my fellow G7 leaders to coordinate a united diplomatic response to Iran’s brazen attack,” he said.
“And while we have not seen attacks on our forces or facilities today, we will remain vigilant to all threats and will not hesitate to take all necessary action to protect our people,” he said.
Related to bargaining, I read the wiki article on Iran’s nuclear program the other day and was surprised at how hard they are trying to do their nuclear program “by the book” while the US keeps blocking everyone else from agreeing that they’re entitled as long as they follow the guidelines (paris agreement etc).
Literally this
Iran needs to get nukes fast. The US will be itching for war until it does.
Instructions unclear
Got Pakistani COAS’s head stuck in Biden’s ***
This is why I was cheering when North Korea got nukes.
North Korea is a horrific shit show but war against North Korea would almost certainly end in direct conflict with China.
Now that NK has nukes there is zero risk of the West initiating a conflict. The risk is too high.
Any change in NK will need to happen internally or by pressure from their allies. Which sucks for the NK people but is probably still less horrific than war.
The current problems in the DPRK stem from the brutal sanctions. Prior to the USSR’s overthrow when the sanctions had far less effect, the North was developing and urbanizing faster than the South, even with 20% of its population killed, and all its infrastructure destroyed, by the US.

Agree with you on the nukes of course. The DPRK would’ve ended up like Libya right now and the US might have been at war against China if they didn’t develop their nuclear deterrence.
I’m not interested in tankie propaganda about how NKs problems are all due to the West.
NK is a dictatorship and like all dictators Kim Jong Un and all his key supporters should be executed.

Well this has got to be one of the least persuasive things I’ve ever read:
Workplace democracy in action.
This is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever read on the internet.
Notice how you don’t address anything they said because it’s true.
The US has been the only country genocidal enough to use a nuclear bomb on actual human beings, and they did it twice at that. Having a nuclear deterrence to keep such a war-mongering country out is important. And it’s been working as we can see.
No idea what I wrote because the fucking thin-skinned mods removed my comment.
Bombing Japan wasn’t genocide you schmuck. Japan declared war on the USA. God damn there is some ignorant fucks on .ml
