A senior US official tells me that it was a US military strike on Iran’s Qeshm port and Bandar Abbas moments ago but added this is NOT a restarting of the war or end to the ceasefire.

Israel is much more comfortable attacking people who can’t fight back beyond small arms fire and throwing rocks

The US has done a terrible job at this whole war, but that is Trump and his dumbassery.

Not that it justified the war, both sides are in the wrong.

I don't disagree there. Iran wasn't a threat to the US in its current form.
However, if the war is happening, I rather good come from it. And that good is for the people of Iran by having their government overthrown. I rather it come from them internally, but that can't happen due to the way the army is set up there.

Iran is one of only two quasi-democratic Muslim countries in the region, and to call its institutions “a regime” is unwise.
Iran’s governance system should stay, but people in charge should be replaced and the democracy strengthened at the expense of the cleric power.
Only under Obama did US take a half-decent step in this direction.

There is no democracy when they people you elect have no power. The problem comes from the top, when you have an all powerful Ayatollah who determines what can and cannot happen, regardless what people vote on. That is far from a democracy.
Trying to figure out if you are ignoring Albania, Bosnia, Kosovo, Indonesia, Pakistan,, Lebanon, Bangladesh, Turkey, or Malaysia on your list. That is before getting into African countries....

Hard to feel bad for the US as well, seeing that out of greed - it’s been nearly constantly militarily f****** with Iran since 1953.
73 years of US coups, assassinations, promoting and supporting an invasion, decapitation strikes during negotiations & many military strikes over the years
The Iranian regime is awful, but their attitude towards the US is understandable

They can have that attitude and actually treat their people well.
I do agree on principle. They do need an enemy, that is the US. But, apparently, also their own citizens. Hard to feel bad for any of the government there.

And so begins another round of Iran claiming to have sunk/heavily damaged US warships, showing an AI or old photo as proof then claiming they only used the photo for reference and then claiming it is true because you haven't seen the ships anymore then when the ships turn up perfectly fine the Iranians claim they never actually said they sank/heavily damaged them but really attacked them and "scared them off"
I'm genuinely getting tired of this, this isn't a defence of Trump, this is simply calling out what is Iran's equal amounts of ridiculousness
