What are we up to since Roe vs Wade? 40 Million?

Iran: The 1991 law of Islamic Penalties stated that though abortion was still legally prohibited, it could be allowed to save the life of the mother.
 
I just saw this on FB. I thought it might piss some people off, so here it is. I googled it for you too.

As of late 2023–2025 estimates, there are approximately 15.7 million Jewish people in the world. This population, which accounts for roughly 0.2% of the global population, is primarily concentrated in Israel (approx. 7–7.1 million) and the United States (approx. 6–7.3 million), with smaller communities in France, Canada, and the UK.

 
Trump will take Kharg Island tonight or very soon. He believes thats they key to controlling the SOH.

I think Trump said these are animals in Iran so apparently he doesn't consider them a civilized nation. One nation doesn't want to be destroyed for doing nothing. Another nation just wants to destroy at all costs.
So now the question is does Trump intentionally kill women and children? If I were a betting man I would say yes, he will kill them all and not think twice about it.

to the nuke question, someone on X made a good point. If he uses them then that opens the gates for China and Russia to use them as well. Probably not a road we want to go down.
 
Yeah Iran's leaders are good people. Ha talk about child abuse.

 
Trump has agreed to a two-week cease fire depending up Straight if Hormuz opening.

LOL at #5. US and Israel compensation is really US and US compensation. A rough estimate would be 3-500 billion just for Iran. Israel being the grifters they are will probably demand the US rebuild them as well. Thats at least another 2-300 billion. So in total around 3/4 of a trillion is our actual cost in all of this. I'd be willing to bet that someone with some real negotiating skills could have made Iran an offer in the 100-200 billion dollar range to give up all of their nuclear material and not do any way shit.
 
First 10 minutes gets you thinking... the next 20 explains what's next.

Strategic Overview - Iran, Ukraine and the Moon: The Lunatics are Clueless - April 6, 2026​

Host Mike Steger delivers a Promethean PAC Monday night strategic update contrasting U.S. space exploration optimism—Artemis missions and a planned 2028 lunar landing—with what he describes as decades of “globalist” damage fueling terrorism, drugs, and deindustrialization. He argues Trump’s tariffs and manufacturing push are slowly rebuilding the industrial base, while the most urgent crisis is Iran, citing Obama-era cash transfers, regional Islamist dynamics, and reports of repression inside Iran. Steger reviews a dramatic U.S. rescue of downed F-15 crew, Trump’s criticism that allies didn’t assist, and his portrayal of NATO as weak. He discusses mediation efforts involving Pakistan, Egypt, and Turkey, a looming escalation deadline, and the need for an off-ramp. The episode also frames Ukraine talks, energy pipelines, and a “Core Five” great-power concept opposing globalism.

How Trump Took the U.S. to War With Iran​

In a series of Situation Room meetings, President Trump weighed his instincts against the deep concerns of his vice president and a pessimistic intelligence assessment. Here’s the inside story of how he made the fateful decision.

The black S.U.V. carrying Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrived at the White House just before 11 a.m. on Feb. 11. The Israeli leader, who had been pressing for months for the United States to agree to a major assault on Iran, was whisked inside with little ceremony, out of view of reporters, primed for one of the most high-stakes moments in his long career.

U.S. and Israeli officials gathered first in the Cabinet Room, adjacent to the Oval Office. Then Mr. Netanyahu headed downstairs for the main event: a highly classified presentation on Iran for President Trump and his team in the White House Situation Room, which was rarely used for in-person meetings with foreign leaders.

Mr. Trump sat down, but not in his usual position at the head of the room’s mahogany conference table. Instead, the president took a seat on one side, facing the large screens mounted along the wall. Mr. Netanyahu sat on the other side, directly opposite the president.

Appearing on the screen behind the prime minister was David Barnea, the director of Mossad, Israel’s foreign intelligence agency, as well as Israeli military officials. Arrayed visually behind Mr. Netanyahu, they created the image of a wartime leader surrounded by his team.

Israel’s political forces are not happy with US-Iran ceasefire deal - here is why​

In a rare moment of consensus, Israel’s political forces agree in their criticism of the US-Iran two-week ceasefire. And while the centre-left politicians are unhappy with PM Netanyahu, the conservatives are criticising Trump.​

Hours after the two-week truce between the US and Iran was announced on Tuesday night, the office of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a brief statement, saying "Israel supports Donald Trump’s decision to suspend strikes against Iran for two weeks."

"Israel also supports the US effort to ensure that Iran no longer poses a nuclear, missile and terror threat to America, Israel, Iran’s Arab neighbours and the world," the statement continued.
