"So, bluster on all sides, except Israel is continuing to slaughter Hamas and Hezbollah. Which is the entire reason that Iran launched the missile strike."

Israel is already calling it quits in Lebanon. They said they would be out within 2 weeks after being stopped at the border. Of course, they will still bomb women and children in civilian areas and the Iranians will allow this to continue because it is great for PR value for them.

"Israel has already gone through the HizzBawlzOff's leaders and is now taking out middle management and terrorist interns making photocopies."

Which shows how ridiculous and overconfident they were. A competent military would have waited to blow up the pagers until the ground war was already started as that would actually give a tactical advantage. Instead, they waited and now they are getting murked by ATGMs and they are pulling out after accomplishing nothing.

"Wow! Iran really showed Israel who's boss.

Reports are now that Israel didn't come within 100 km of the Iranian border, so yeah, Iran likely scared them off. The most likely explanation making the rounds now is that the Israeli early drone attack which was supposed to make Iran turn on the radar and thus give away their locations for the follow on attack targeting AD systems did not work as Iran did not take the bait and shot down the drones with more conventional AD systems. Thus, Israel and the US could not risk a bunch of F35s being shot down and Israel called off the attack before accomplishing anything. Basically, it was more or less a free airshow for Iraqis.

"@#8 ... ike for the fake Hunter Russian laptop hoax ...

You can't possibly be this stupid, but in case you actually are:

"Why is such a revenge Presidency good for the American people?

Because we are way beyond reforming at this point. We need to shut down whole government functions and jail those that corrupted the system as a warning against future abuse.

I don't think this person lives in Asia - the moved to the US or are maybe 1st generation born here. I think they probably live in a deep blue liberal -------- that votes 80% blue and then projects that onto their parents and former country.

I can tell you first hand that Vietnam is probably 75/25 in support of Trump. They love his tough on China policies as it directly benefits them. Also, they do not understand our immigration system where they cannot even get a travel visa to the US for fear of overstaying the visa yet have the southern border wide open.

In Korea, they love Trump because they didn't feel there were on the brink of nuclear annihilation when he was in office. Now, N Korea has moved combat troops to the border and the fear is that is Iran/Israel trade serious bombs, N Korea will invade and overrun Seoul within a few hours as it is too close to the border.

For Taiwan, it is the same as Korea. They support whichever party they think will protect them better from China. Recently, they have also become very concerned about the everything GAY coming out of the US as they are a more traditional society.

In Philippines, it is still dominated by religion and their positive experience with Duterte. The realize a completely dysfunctional country sometimes needs a strongman to bring real change. Also, due to abortion and everything GAY, they cannot support the Democrats.

Well, that is my take from actually living in East and Southeast Asia for the last 12 years. I don't think this author actually resides in Asia but rather resides in a blue bubble and is probably seen as a disappointment to their parents back in the home country as they go past 35 without a husband or becoming a doctor.
