Why did it have to happen?

For all the reasons that you won’t see on cnn or msnbc…..don’t always be so naive.

Anyone who has been keeping up with this knows why it happened. Diplomacy with the country of evil has never been effective. The world has also been shown the military strength of America while taking down the evil empire responsible for the proliferation of global terrorism.

I agree it should have happened but congress should have been involved.

For a surgical strike that needed to be done, and required speed and secrecy for effectiveness and safety, I agree with POTUS authority. For any prolonged authorization, Congress needs to approve. Sadly, in our current state of affairs, we have too many sympathizers, grandstanders, purposeful leakers and--quite frankly--people exhibiting almost traitorous behavior to put a strike like this up for debate.

When even the IAEA says Iran has nuclear material for offensive war use, and has sanctioned them for violations, it's time to do something.

There was already something in place to prevent them from producing nuclear weapons. This reminds me of the time Bush said that Iraq had missles of mass destruction. What is the protocol for this type of air strick? Is it a requirement that Congress has to be notified? If so, he is not a dictator and cannot make that decision alone. 

During the Obama administration, the US pursued a policy of engagement with Iran, culminating in the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), also known as the Iran nuclear deal. This agreement, reached with Iran, the US, and other world powers, aimed to restrict Iran's nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief. 

 
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
  • JCPOA:
    The JCPOA was a landmark agreement designed to ensure Iran's nuclear program would be exclusively peaceful. Key provisions included Iran limiting its uranium enrichment capacity and stockpile, and allowing international inspections. In return, UN, US, and EU sanctions related to Iran's nuclear program were to be lifted. 
     
  • Sanctions:
    The Obama administration also significantly increased sanctions against Iran, particularly targeting its oil sector and financial institutions. These sanctions were aimed at pressuring Iran to negotiate and accept the nuclear deal. 
     
  • Diplomacy:
    The JCPOA was the result of years of diplomatic efforts, including secret talks between the US and Iran.

This kinda makes sense.  It was reported that B-2's were heading towards Guam as a distraction.  But, as this article states, Trump could have told Iran he's coming and they couldn't do anything about it.  This articles also states the theory that the B-2's were for China's warning to NOT attack Taiwan while the Iran bombing was taking place.  To be honest, as I've stated before, China's not going to do anything on the Don's watch!
