Trump says he's considering limited military strike against Iran

Trump said Thursday that he would make a decision in the next 10 to 15 days on whether to attack the Islamic Republic. He has left open the possibility that a deal could still be reached with Tehran over its nuclear program.

Trump has previously said an attack on Iran would be "far worse" than the limited strikes launched by the U.S. last June against its nuclear facilities.

This if true, is GOOD news.

Aggressive War is BAD. Standing down and refusing to fight for the "Chosen" on Demand can only be a good thing.

If the Squatters in Palestine want to fight Iran they can do it Alone.

Of Course they Won't... they need Assistance with their Wars of Choice.

They are too Small and too ------ to Prevail Alone..The 12 Day War proved that.

And Iran will sit there and absorb a "limited military strike?"

"Gee, thanks for only kicking in my balls and breaking my arm, but not gouging out my eyes, so I'll just kick your shins twice."

Iran will consider any attack, even limited, as an existential threat and respond overwhelmingly. That could possibly mean two aircraft carriers at the bottom of the sea.

Go read the history of the Shia. Anyone remotely involved would have to look over their collective shoulders for the next 200 years.
