I’m legit taken aback at how this isn’t the biggest news in decades. Trump is insane. These threats, and his claim not to care about being called a war criminal, are so obscene it’s hard to fathom. Yet it barely makes the news.
That is not true. Half or more of us are disgusted. His supporters will say it’s just his bluster and didn’t expect him to follow through. It’s sickening.
Where is this? I'm seeing this in the news everywhere! News media websites, TV, social media... It's been by far the thing I saw the most during all of yesterday.
They should show Murphy’s statements before the first US bombs dropped.
Iran had executed 40,000 of its own citizens. This presented an exceptional quandry for the US president. Sit by and do nothing, or try to stop it? Trump publicly mulled the issue for weeks, which was the time for fair discussion on the issue.
Those that opposed bombing Iran ( at that time ) now have a legitimate platform to criticize Trump. Those that remained silent should be silent still.
Is that 40,000 number going to turn out to be the nurse Nayirah of Iran? Does that number come from a credible NGO? Is there a mass grave in a known location? Grieving mothers?
Murphy is the typical ignorant politician. Iran has been chanting Death to America since 1979 and was on the verge of getting a nuke.
9/11 happened because we failed to act when we had the chance to take out UBL in the 90's. Trump is not waiting for us to get nuked. His actions are simple self-defense by putting the Persians back in charge in Iran. So oil prices go up for a month, big deal.
The world will be FAR safer when that terrorist regime is gone.

Trump is not insane. He is self serving. Monitor his and Kushner's portfolio.
It might be hard for people in other countries to fathom, but Americans, by and large, want this.

I stick with Nate Silver on how to weight and average the polls.

That is a fair question.
Here is the Wikipedia page for the issue ( though Wikipedia is also suspect ).
