Funnily enough theres just as much of a chance that its either an Israeli plot or israel just made it up to scare trump…
Can’t really trust trump or Netanyahu at all
Every single party involved in this headline is so utterly untrustworthy that I don’t know what to do with it.
There we go again with the bothsidism bullshit
Yeah there is an element of that, but I don’t think it’s entirely controversial to say that it all gets old very quickly.
Critical thinking takes work and research, which is fine for a specific topic or when you’re reading something with existing context like something historic… but keeping on top of something where all the belligerents are pushing out narrative on a daily basis becomes fucking soul-destroying to fact-check and evaluate.
I don’t think this is a “both sides” fallacy. It’s just being super fed up of the constant shitslinging and media manipulation.
It is alwqys a bothside fallacy when you you equate the agressed and aggresor
He just had their leader assassinated and is threating to do it again.
Don’t act surprised if Iran decides to play the same game.
Exactly, do I think this would be good? No. Would I feel like the US has any grounds to cry foul if Iran assassinated Trump from the perspective of a US citizen? How could I? Where do I even begin to construct the accusation against Iran without it becoming immediately hypocritical…?. and this is the alarming problem with the US government.
To be honest I think most USians would breathe a huge sigh of relief, even if it’s just quietly, in private.
The full-bore-psychos might see him as a martyr though 😬
The only way Trump is remembered in even a slightly positive light is if he is martyred. Killing Trump would be the best thing for Trump’s ideology one could possibly do.
Trump alive is a constant reminder of how stupid Trumpism is, how incompetent and how violently incurious it is.
The people we are at war with keep trying to kill us.
I mean… If anything it’s the opposite here. The US is at war with Iran, and by trying to kill Trump they’re probably attempting to stop the war by killing a single individual. So the “us” that you’re referring to includes only Trump in this case.
Have you considered that in fact it was meant as a thought Trump might have, his amazement and feeling of unfairness that a power he is bombing and actively targeting the leadership of might reply in kind.
I wonder if there’s some Iranian bureaucrat crunching the numbers and finding out that assassinating Trump is the most cost effective way to complete the peace process
I’m sure the intent there is to keep the peace process running smoothly.
Just the Iranians?
I find that hard to believe.
This is one of those situations where you have to monitor an elder so he doesn’t get scam called but he’s the potus so you actually can’t do that. Kind of fucked.
So there is no plot after all
