Trump could launch nuclear strike on Iran within days, commentator claims
(www.middleeastmonitor.com)
World NewsTucker Carlson is a dangerous joke, this unfortunately is not a joke however.
russian mouthpiece says what
Trump's so far gone he could also stuff lemons up his arse within days. And Tucker Carlson - probably the most unreliable journalist in the US - would be there for it.
Lil' Tuckie is on his own now and screaming into the void for hate-clicks, even with all that TV dinner money he has. Desperate to stay relevant, lil' Tuckie is. C'mon...what are we doing here?
Carlson isn't so well poised in this administration; why should we take this seriously? Crazy rant man tells crazy rant.
Let me be clear, Tucker Carlson is a racist (including antisemitic AND islamophobic/racist towards arabs), sexist, transphobic dirtbag who brings down the value of the entire human race by existing.
That being said, the establishment lets Tucker Carlson say things with a prominent platform that the center of US society only lets far right extremists fascists say. That is what is so supremely dangerous about Tucker Carlson, he speaks to unspoken truths but he does so only with hate.
that's weak as fuck mutually assured destruction
if someone launches nukes at America it takes them days to fire nukes back? that's not going to happen
The guy who fucks Russian breads.
so I don't like being in the position of defending a Nazi, but that bread does look pretty fuckable. I don't think we can mock this bread fucking nazi for being a bread fucker.
That bread is barely a day old.
I'm a panlibertarian. age of consent for baked goods is oppression.
oh, a pannophile.
I just think bread is most delicious when its freshly baked, and by the time its reached the age of consent it's mostly gross and old. I should be able to steal and fuck any loaf of bread I want while they're still oven-hot and fresh. all these bakers telling me 'it needs to cool first! its not done cooking and you'll burn your mouth!' and 'what the hell are you doing in my house? I have a gun' are basically slurs.
Just one Monday this year can we not all have to worry about the end of everything as we know it?
gonna need way more cop and billionaire blood in the gutters to make that happen. maybe get some more realistic goals.
Sorry, all I can do is 10 minutes. You better decide fast we're running out of time.
...either that or just fucking end it already. This neverending tease is exhausting.
Nahhh... Even Trump isn't that dumb. Anyone who uses nukes is suddenly Enemy of the World. It would be WW3 and we would be the Nazis. I think it would unify Europe and China kind of like the Allies and the Soviet Union back in the day. Stop the US at all cost.
Trump is absolutely that dumb because his narcissism and other issues take precedence over anything else. Some of his other staff are definitely dumb and crazy enough. The question is whether the people elsewhere in the chain would do anything about it. I like to think they would, but who knows at this point.
Nahhh… Even Trump isn’t that dumb.
Wher is your evidence of this? How about Stephen Miller?
If left to his own, yeah he probably is that dumb. However, he will certainly be repeatedly advised against it with a multitude of reasons why. He has backed down on stupid shit many times. You know, "TACO." Miller? Yeah, he's a fucking psychotic weirdo.
TACO is the single most dangerous phrase/acronoymn of the last 10 years because it disastorously misunderstands the nature of cowardice.
Trump is too cowardly to back down, even when it is directly in his best interest, yes he does back down all the time but plenty of times he loses against his ego and shoots himself in the foot anyways.
Have you ever read about how Trump pathologically cheats at golf? He is not a normal person and his tendency to TACO is a gargantuan escalation risk.
Adding to that, TACO came about in the context of manipulating the stock market escalating the conflict on a Friday and backing down on Monday; allowing his inner circle to buy the dip and sell when the market recovered.
Also Trump has launched multiple wars??
He is murdering people in the caribbean with missiles that cost 100 times the boat of innocent fisherman who maybe? have drugs they obliterate pointlessly are riding on.
He is rounding people up en masse with masked thugs aka ICE and thousands of people have already disappeard in the US to who knows where (we don't know where the people in Alligator Alcatraz after it was forced to close, we genuinely have no idea).
I am not trying to be alarmist about everything, but lets get the facts straight what is dangerous about Trump is how much of a coward he is, that is specifically the least harmless part about Trump.
Why is it so dangerous that Trump is a coward, because Trump often does what he says he is going to do, TACO is fantastically dangerous for the narrative it implies that Trump doesn't mean what he says. Project 2025 told us EXACTLY what it was, there was ZERO percent TACO to Project 2025 and I am so tired of this broken meme.
Trump doesn't have a Big Red Button. There's a whole command and control infrastructure between the President and a nuclear launch. I doubt he'd even be allowed to get the codes out the Nuclear Football.
Someone will come along and argue the the military allowed Trump to start an illegal war and kidnapped a head of state. Put together, those pale in comparison to the consequences of even a small, tactical detonation. I can't even begin outlining the events that would follow.
So you think he's going to start a nuclear war then. I disagree. If I knew you, I would bet money on it. Ain't gonna happen.
If I knew you, I would bet money on it. Ain’t gonna happen.
Everybody will bet money on mass nuclear war not happening, it would be illogical not to? It is a "win-win" kind of bet, either you are right or it doesn't matter and what you bet is meaningless.
I don't think the use of nuclear weapons is likely per say, what worries me is the incentive structure and the rapidly deteriorating lack of ability for leaders and international structures of power to protect the decency of humanity when it is easily within their material capability to do so... In my lifetime we have objectively never been closer to the use of nuclear weapons, which doesn't mean I am sure they will be used.
Do you not worry about hurricanes or other infrequent but catastrophic events? I feel like you are trying to flatten this into I am saying the sky is falling in an absurd way and I am not, I am pointing out something we should all take seriously as an unlikely but extremely devastating possibility.
Yes, it wouldn't make logical sense for it to happen necessarily, but you can't claim that is the same thing as saying it won't happen.
edit One last point, not only are we closer to the possibility of nuclear weapons being used than we have been in decades, but the nuclear powers of the world are making it abundantly clear through war and genocide that having nuclear weapons is the only way to deal on an equal footing with them... which may unfortunately be true but also the entire point of having a proactive conversation about nuclear proliferation is that the easy answer has always been to just build more nuclear weapons than your "enemy", the problem isn't that the strategy doesn't work it is that it ends up with their being an unfathomable number of nuclear weapons... so yes we should absolutely take this shit seriously.
Bruh he wanted to nuke the hurricane years ago and really got upset at the people who said no to him
He really gives the impression that he'll only feel as a man when he uses the atomic bomb.
All he did was throw the idea out in front of the press. There was no plan, no anger at being thwarted.
I'm sure even his dumbest military has advised him any strike in Iran will blow fallout into UAE and Israel.
The loss of exploitable real estate (deals) is the only thing holding him back, really.
