Trump declared war on Iran. Why is anyone surprised?

This is literally how WW1 started.

Iran just issued threats to the UAE that if the jets we just launched from there attack targets in Iran they will begin attacking the UAE as well.

WW1 began with the assassination of a politician.

It's an act of war to assassinate the #2 guy in a country.

It can be. But Ferdinand wasn't assassinated by the President of the United States. He wasn't assassinated by a drone strike.

He was killed by a Bosnian Serb nationalist. Several countries started pointing fingers as to who truly was at fault. Everyone knows who did it in present day.

The Major General of Iran was killed by a drone strike that came from our country, ordered from the President.

NOTHING is literally the same as what happened in WWI

A completely hollow claim considering that you don't have the build-up of alliances that made the world wars work. Other than maybe Russia, nobody is going to have Iran's back.

It's an act of war to assassinate the #2 guy in a country.

Which isn't even close to the actual conditions involved. It's the flimsiest of comparisons and one of weakest arguments.

WWI's beginning was a whole lot more complicated than Ferdinand's assassination. It was one of the contributing factors, certainly, but far from being the only thing.

And Britain outright lying to Germany behind the scenes telling them they wouldn't get involved if war broke out, which is part of what emboldened Germany to move on France, and royally pissed them off when Britain declared war on them for it.

Nah

Just a regional war. Iran will be shocked and awed to death. The USA will probably get a the troops she needs from recruiting/current reserves.

so I just want to make sure I understand, orchestrating an attack on the American Embassy, attacking ships in the strait of Hormuz and killing an American contractor are not declarations of war?

Basically, Iran shot on an empty base, and there are no known casualties so far. And they claim that's all they will do, so long as the US doesn't retaliate.

Let's see if Trump and the generals are dumb enough to do it, anyways.
