CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Gen. Dan Caine, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has said in Situation Room meetings that while the U.S. forces amassed in the Middle East could carry out small or medium strikes, there would be a potentially high risk of American casualties and a negative effect on American weapons stockpiles.
“When we initiate contact, we should expect Iran to launch 100 missiles at U.S. bases, because that was what they did to Israel in June,” said Maj. Gen. Paul D. Eaton, a retired Army veteran of the war in Iraq. American troops, he added, have neither Israel’s vaunted Iron Dome air defense system nor its vast bunker network that helped keep casualties down during the country’s armed conflict with Iran last June.
Mr. Trump, General Eaton said, “has failed to make the case to the American people for why we are conducting this war of choice.”

I wonder if this has anything to do with me, once again, pulled out of training and waiting at the airport for a 29 hour flight.

In Trump’s Case for War, a Series of False or Unproven Claims
"As they made their public case this week for another American military campaign against Iran, President Trump and his aides asserted that Iran has restarted its nuclear program, has enough available nuclear material to build a bomb within days, and is developing long-range missiles that will soon be capable of hitting the United States.
All three of these claims are either false or unproven.
American and European government officials, international weapons monitoring groups and reports from American intelligence agencies give a far different picture of the urgency of the Iran threat than the one the White House has presented in recent days"
Sound familiar? Remember the "they have WMDs and they are here, here, and here" only to be proven false BEFORE the bombs dropped?

Israel and then the US have launched "pre-emptive" strikes against Iran. At least 10 locations hit. The US claims it is targeting Iran's ballistic missile stockpiles and production capacity.

Iran's ayatollah and president targeted: Sources
Three sources briefed on the U.S.-Israeli attack told ABC News that Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and President Masoud Pezeshkian were both targeted.Trump says US aims to destroy Iran's military, topple government
He urged opponents of the Iranian authorities to rise up, saying "the hour of your freedom is at hand.""When we are finished, take over your government. It will be yours to take," Trump said. This "will be probably your only chance for generations."
But in a section of the short speech that was aimed at the US public, Trump acknowledged that "the lives of courageous American heroes may be lost" in what the Pentagon dubbed "Operation Epic Fury."
