Lindsey Graham Proposes U.S. Start Bombing Iran: ‘Time to Take the War to the Ayatollah’s Backyard’
Lindsey Graham suggested that the U.S. consider bombing Iranian oil refineries if Hamas follows through on its promise to start executing hostages.
Shut up, unindicted co-conspirator.
Ouch I just stubbed my toe. Better bomb Iran about it. I burnt my mouth on my pizza rolls. Time to bomb Iran.
papercut?
yup, that's a bombin'
Lunatic
Yes, let's escalate the conflict further, surely this will save lives!
Maybe we could compromise and put landmines in Lindsey Graham's backyard?

I was trying to finish my degree before WWIII... Fuck it, I didn't want to do all of this homework anyway.
Why would that start WW3?
Hey check it out, this guy hasn't heard of Franz Ferdinand! /s
As to not be rude or dismissive: the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand is generally credited with the start of World War I. The implication being that a world war has been started over a seemingly small event that had tumultuous consequences thereafter. The further implication being that we may already be past a Franz Ferdinand assassination type event and may be worryingly headlong into a path to large scale warfare once again.
Because the world is interconnected a lot more than it has ever been before. A single shooting in a very minor nation went from a terrorist attack to a full world war. The world is in a very precipitous state ATM. Many countries are looking for opportunities to take advantage of any weaknesses in world order to subjugate their neighbours. Now is not a good time to go gun totting frivolously.
It's Iran just the default country to blame when something bad happens?
Trump gave Israeli national defense secrets to Russia, which would love US attention partially diverted from Ukraine, and who happens to be a close ally of Iran (Iran is supplying Russia with weaponry)
Iran is one of the main sponsors of Hamas. Iran has also been under US sanctions of varying degrees for about 45 years, so it would be happy should the US lose face or power.
I'm not saying Iran is responsible, but they were likely middlemen.
Them, Russia, Cuba. Used to be Venezuela, Libya, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, but our jackals already messed them up, so no need, now.
He's always so eager to start a war, as long as he's not fighting it.
Yeah, how about we not do that.
Don't mind him... His Russian handler threaten to release his kompromat again.

And yet he's totally fine with the over 2800 Americans dead or injured from domestic mass shootings in 2023 alone.
What could possibly go wrong. I just can't imagine any negative consequences for US from bombing Iran.
