US President Donald Trump has called on the world’s major powers to abandon the “defective” Iran nuclear deal, after the country hit back and bombed a base holding American troops.
Iran fired a number of missiles at two Iraqi bases housing US troops yesterday in retaliation for the American strike that killed a top Iranian general last week. No lives were lost.
The hashtag #NoWarWithIran is going viral as tensions continue to escalate and fears of a World War Three rise.

As with every wartime period in history, what we will see when we look back, if we are even here after this one, is war-mongering men beating their chests at one another. Seeking ego-fuelled glory by using their armies to destroy their enemies and show how powerful they are. So they can be lauded as heroes and remembered for all time. As they've done for centuries, in every needless conflict, over the same things. Ridiculous, ridiculous men.
Testosterone. The most destructive substance on the planet.
Objectively, Iran and the US are like two peas in a pod.
I doubt there will any long-lasting conflict, we've seen this movie before. Because,
1) Trump is all talk, this is a distraction from his Impeachment.
2) Iran has the deterrent factor of nukes.
3) Iran's alliance with Russia and China.
1) Trump is all talk and he just droned this enemy?
2) No, it’s doesnt. It has a nuclear program which I doubt will ever go into production as was the case in Syria and Iraq where the threat of creating nukes attracts the attention of Israeli F-16s.
3) The US has many more nukes and neither China or Russia care enough about Iran to find out how well the US ones work on their cities.
Anyway, I thought Trump was an agent of Putin? That’s what Rachel Maddow told us every night for more than 2 years. Now he is acting against Putin’s allies? Oh wait, Trumps in with the Ukraine too who is against his master in the Kremlin, er, um, can the Trump haters actually make up their minds and tell us if Trump is working for or against the Russians, at least this week?
Completely disagree with points 1, 2, and 3.
Regarding Trump, it's funny how his supporters always get triggered by the slightest of criticisms. Reminds me of Kim Jong-un true believers.
Anyway, as long as Australia doesn't get involved in another US invasion I'm not too interested.
Haha good one. Trump literally just blew up a terrorist but according to you he's "all talk"... and how is that impeachment going anyway?
And as I predicted Trump backed down from any military intervention, even after Iran bombed US bases in Iraq.
Your timing is horrible mate ;)
