Per the Constitution

from Jay Kuo

We did not have to join Bebe in his total annihilation of others in the region

1) Iran has been “weeks away” from having a weapon since 1995.
2) our own intelligence services said that they did were not close to having one, so if Trump is getting different intel it’s likely from Netanyahu’s government.
3) The response that was working was the agreement that was in place—lifting sanctions in exchange for no enrichment—that Obama put in place. Trump tore that up and these are the consequences.
4) Bombing Iran will have many unintended consequences not yet foreseeable.
5) North Korea and Pakistan have had nuclear weapons for some time now and not used them. They act as a deterrent. Ukraine had nukes but gave them up, and we see the result. Other countries will race to make these weapons rather than be subject to attack from great powers.
