You have to feel bad for Oman on the other side of the straight. You never hear a peep from them. They must be looking around and think y’all are crazy.

They named their country for this moment. So that one day they could look across the straight, and say...O man...

Thank you, try the veal.

BBC breaking news:

Explosions reported in Saudi capital Riyadh

We are now getting reports of explosions in the diplomatic quarter of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia's capital city.

According to Reuters quoting sources, a fire has broken out at the US embassy, which is located in that area.

Trump is also saying that instead of 4 days, the operation could take four weeks, saying, “I don’t get bored. There’s nothing boring about this,” and also never outright rejected putting troops on the ground.

I don’t know about you but I support the United States acting to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon and to prevent its regime and to stop them from funding terrorist organizations that continue to disrupt the region.

There will never be peace in the region with the current Iranian regime in place and Hamas and other terrorist organizations operating.

War is peace! Aside from the massive bloodshed and loss, oil and gas will skyrocket. Grocery prices and goods will become even more unaffordable. Poor people will continue to suffer and die.

That’s what everyone said about Iraq too.

I don’t think anyone is arguing that Iran is a destabilizing state, but you’d think we’d learn our lesson.

Will you support the civil war that ensues? The new president is Iran said Iranian military groups are acting independent. That’s how you get a protracted civil war.

- U.S. embassy in Saudi Arabia in flames

- six U.S. service members confirmed dead; more wounded

If they got rid of their nuke capabilities in the summer why are they back there again in full force?

Yeah, I'm sure you support *this* United States in just about anything they do.

And by just about anything I mean literally everything.

Donald Trump deserves the fate as the Ayatollah.

It's too bad it didn't go down the same way as it does in the movies where they shoot each other and both die.

Trump is such a wrestling guy that it really should have been Jr and Eric against two of Khamenei's kids, Hell in a Cell. US wins and Iran changes regimes, Iran wins they get nukes.

Who ripped up the deal Obama made with Iran regarding nukes? Donald Trump.

Who claimed a few months ago that Iran’s Nuclear program was totally obliterated? Donald Trump.

Who buys the ridiculous clown car lies vomited out by Pedolf Shilter, child rapist, that change on a daily basis?
