I’m confused. I thought they had 48 hours to reopen the straight, but not really because talks were going well, but still 10 days until the US destroys all the infrastructure, but talks have been productive, and the war is going to be over any day now, but it doesn’t matter because we don’t need the oil, but we could take over the oil fields, but Europe should help us, but we don’t need them and they should do it themselves.
Dont forget “we shouldnt even be there”
No country has ever surrendered unconditionally from conventional airstrikes.
So we’re either going to see boots on the ground (well, they’re in the area), or more tiny hand flailing within that time frame.
That’s why I always have one old unupgraded pikeman hanging around since 560BC to take over cities.
Especially a country run by a threatened regime. If the IRGC give in, they’re dead. They also have established that they don’t care about the human cost.
Oddly enough, does this not also apply to the USA?
Absolutely correct. But I think the republicans are actually in worse state than the IRGC; they are the aggressors and clearly perceived that way by a lot of their base, and there’s still the idea of free elections.
Boots are already on the ground.
Everything is 2 or 3 weeks. 10 years from now, it will over in 2 or 3 weeks.
Iran has simultaneously been obliterated within the first 2-3 weeks of the war and will have nuclear weapons in the next 2-3 weeks.
Peace prize please.
FIFA “Here is your bribe…I mean Peace Prize, President Trump.”
Donald comes cheap.
These idiots and their scorched earth threats. Worst B-movie villains ever.
Any miltary strategist will say that you can’t bomb your way to a victory.
But you absolutely CAN bomb the news about your pedophile rape gang out of the front pages.
Still don’t know why.
Just know we can’t have nice things here.
Because it stopped a lot of the Epstein questions
Because they have lots of oil and aren’t Christian.
are brown*
Seems like it was never about nuclear weapons.
And the oil markets responded appropriately, WTI is now $112.
Bye bye any economic performance for all of 2026!
If he carries on like this is going to end up getting taken out by the oil execs.
Fuck you mean? All the US oil majors are ROLLING in cash right now, they still have plenty of supply but get to profit from global shortages. They love this shit.
Oh we’ll claw back into 2025 (if we aren’t already). How deep will we dig?
The situation has no way out. Leaving without opening the strait ruins the Gulf States that own a large part of the American economy that would go to hell. Opening the strait without troops on the ground is impossible, troops on the ground will be a pickle in lives and material as not seen since the Second World War. I think before this is over he will be seriously considering the nuclear option, I hope they can stop him before that
I hope a clot stops him before then because there’s a much better chance of that than any of the spineless people in government suddenly doing anything about anything.
We could always fold to their demands
It’s not going to happen, but paying him reparations would really be the right thing to do. Recognizing sovereignty over Hormuz no, that would not be fair or good or acceptable to anyone
Of course. It worked for Vietnam after all the combined ordinance used in WWII was dropped there and its neighbors of Laos and Cambodia. Oh no wait the US still failed spectacularly. Is the US gonna have another forever war just to hide the president’s role in a massive pedophile ring?
These clowns and their maximalist bullshit. Were they playing paddycake for the past 5 weeks?
I hope the sons and grandsons of MAGAs get hauled off to boot camp.
Just make it simpler. I hope people who voted republican find themselves homeless and begging in the streets.
With us running headlong towards Great Depression 2.0, this doesn’t seem far-fetched
It’s intentional, and no one with the power to stop it will. If you’re an American, I hope you like living in a shack and eating slop while working four dead end gigs. That’s our future.
I’m honestly just running the clock down at this point. My QoL is still quite good, so I’ll press on for now.
I’m in my late 40s and saw fit to get sterilized in my 20s. I wasn’t sure when shit would really start deteriorating, but I expected to see it kick off in my lifetime.
Will this be like how their military has been wiped out? Doesn’t he realise everyone just calls his bluff because he literally never goes through with anything he threatens.
Bro just two more weeks I promise we’ll be done we just need three more weeks to finish our goals bro just a month and we’ll have accomplished this mission bro we just need two more months I promise we’ll be done in Iran if we can just keep bombing them for three months bro we will have a peace deal in the next five months bro please just let us keep fighting bro just six more months bro
