Moderating:
A reminder, this thread is still technically for current events going on. Yes, we’re getting few enough updates that we haven’t moderated for that heavily, but that’s it’s intended role. If you want to do a deep dive into reasons for the conflict, please consider going back to the related:
Even if it’s been inactive for a while, it’s the more appropriate option. If you want to do a full deep dive into the US/Iranian historical conflicts, please spin off a new thread.
How to Reply as a linked Topic
Click Reply, in the upper left corner of the reply window is the reply type button, looks like a curving arrow point to the right.
Choose Reply as linked topic and it starts a new thread. As an example, you can choose GD, IMHO or The Pit for it.
That is actually the best method.
And for @QuickSilver and @iiandyiiii, the ongoing sidetrack on the general appropriateness of war is another topic that should have it’s own thread. Again, spin it off - please do not continue it here.
