    you want troops on the ground?

    Genuinely don’t know what reality you’re living in if you are typing this question after reading my comment.

      I believe their meaning was, ‘Do you have to see boots on the ground before you call it a war?’, not accusing you personally of wanting war.

        Thank you for clarifying.

        My only point with my original comment is that people are freaking out as though this is about to be Iraq War take 3. I see no evidence of that. It would require an invasion.

        I mean how many dozens of times have we done something similar to this without anything becoming of it? Didn’t Trump literally assassinate an Iranian general during his last term?

      Oh. So this is just Tuesday. I guess you should call Iran and tell them. They will be so relieved.
