U.S. Bombs Iranian Coastal City, Reports Fox’s Griffin
www.mediaite.com
Jennifer Griffin reported on Thursday that the U.S. attacked an Iranian port city with airstrikes, which were initially believed to be carried out by the United Arab Emirates.

Griffin added more details to her initial post, writing, “A senior US official tells me that it was a US military strike on Iran’s Qeshm port and Bandar Abbas moments ago but added this is NOT a restarting of the war or end to the ceasefire.”

    Just so I understand, americans asked for a ceasefire, then proceeds to bomb Iran. This sounds a lot like the israeli and Putin model of ceasefire: you stop shooting but we can continue to shoot.

    Similar tactics at the beginning: simultaneously invite Iran to Geneva for peace talks, and order bombing of multiple sites in Iran.

    Unfortunately the world can no longer trust america. And for those of you who say “ its not me, I didnt vote for him”, I don’t believe you because you elected him twice.

      And for those of you who say “ its not me, I didnt vote for him”, I don’t believe you because you elected him twice.

      That’s not how elections work. Especially not in America. Less than 50% of the voting populace can vote for a candidate and they get all the power.

      Not only that but there’s a shit ton of evidence that there was voter fraud for trump, so it’s really insane to say we voted for him.

      Did you vote for Tony Abbott? Well he was elected so you must have. Smdh.

      Remember the failed US-Iran ceasefire talks few weeks ago? Israel was still launching missiles in the middle of them.

    Calls for ceasefire.

    Fires.

    “This is NOT restarting the war or ending the ceasefire!”

    “We just made a deal with you and broke it… now, let’s make another deal about your nuclear arms! We promise to honor it! For really reals this time.”

    I don’t see anyone mentioning in this thread that this is a response to Iran attacking US ships transiting Hormuz.

    Getting ready for the ground invasion. The funs just about to start. Watch the economy tank, the banks fail and hopefully the end of the ‘unipolar’ moment
