Listen, as an America First-friendly person, I don't blame NATO for not wanting to get involved, Jones replied. That doesn't bother me. I also don't blame our president for telling them, Hey, we've had your back for a long time. Look at all the money and resources we spent in Ukraine. We need a little bit of help right now.
They cannot have a nuclear weapon. They cannot have ballistic missiles. How long is it gonna take to make sure they don't have nuclear weapons? How long is it gonna take to make sure they don't have ballistic missiles that can destroy Americans? They've been killing us for 47 years. This had to end at some point, and I don't want it on American soil.
The problem is from the outside, like the rest of the world, you look at this unnecessary aggression by the United States government, and then you tack on whatever propaganda they have already been spitting out about America for the last 20 or 30 years, and then this war with Iran gets really ugly. Because that's how you start a World War III.
Well, I'll start with my biggest concern moving forward, and it's just the sheer lack of planning and thinking through all of the second and third-order consequences. Sullivan criticized the problem, in part, as being due to a lack of clarity around the administration's objectives were in acting militarily.
There are some in the Senate that advocate for war everywhere. Lindsey Graham is one of them. He does NOT tell the President what to do, nor does he control Congress. I have spoken with the administration a number of times, as well as other members of Congress over the last week or so, and nothing has changed regarding boots on the ground. NO BOOTS on the ground.
Over 40% (45%) of the UK public opposes the ongoing military action by the US and Israel in Iran, while only 22% support the strikes. Concerns about escalation and economic repercussions are rising; more than three-quarters (76%) of UK adults are anxious that the UK may be drawn more deeply into the conflict.
America doesn't have to constantly police every region of the world. Our interest, I think very much, is in not going to war with Iran. It would be a huge distraction of resources. It would be massively expensive to our country.
I think they heard the president's message yesterday loud and clear. It is my understanding over the past several hours they've agreed to cooperate with the US military. Well, not really. Our Madrid correspondent Sam Jones says her comments sparked another angry reaction from top Spanish politicians, with foreign minister Jose Manuel Albares telling Cadena Ser radio on Wednesday night: Our no to war' stance remains clear and unequivocal.
Does it make any sense to you that Iran was planning preemptive strikes against us and our civilians, knowing full well of the massive military assets we had moved into the region, the aircraft carriers and so on? Obviously, it doesn't, Kelly concluded, while saying she would never repeat such a claim like Jennings did because she would not allow them to use me like a fool.
