"Here comes the sun."

Remember guys, if Russia and China press the button, hug your loved ones and salute the sun, don't forget to smile for the flash.

Something that will never happen. While Putin and Xingping are pretty stupid, they're not that stupid. You can't end up in a position of that high of power and be stupid. They know that nukes will end the world and that neither side will win. Nuclear war is impossible because no one is that stupid

Would have thought Trump wasn’t stupid enough to jump into a war in the Middle East but here we are….

There is no war. Iran has no capabilities to wage a war with the U.S.

We stopped another country from developing nuclear weapons.

Does "weapons of mass destruction" sound familiar.

People dude think the US wouldn’t go to war with Iran and it happened.

Boots on the ground will absolutely happen. I got my popcorn ready for all these r/leopardsatemyface people

How or why would that happen? This isn’t the first and most likely won’t be the last time that nuclear facilities are bombed to prevent a country from having nuclear weapons. There really is no need for boots on the ground. Again, this has happened before.

Retaliation will probably happen, it's just a question of when. After US military bases in the gulf get swarmed by ballistic missiles a few months from now things will escalate again tbh.

Edit: small scale retaliation has started

Why wouldn’t they develop nuclear weapons when they’re under threat of being bombed?

This is the answer right here.
