US-Iran War Mudpit Thread

[Knows]

I thought we blew everything up a couple times by now. How did Trump miss an entire Naval base.

Trump doesn't like to destroy infrastructure. But they will do whatever they have to. Iran is trying to take out the water supplies of their bordering countries. And they are firing missiles back now. Yet you are still against Trump? Strange.

Trump is now back to his original threats of bombing infrastructure. It sounds more like something Trump has wanted to do from the beginning.

Iran is now threatening to stop energy exports due to the blockade., which means more bombing of there neighbors.

Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard threatened Wednesday to halt all energy exports from the Middle East over the blockade.
“The export of oil and gas from the region will be either for everyone or for no one,” it said.

Looks like it could be a bumpy ride before it gets better.

When you invent strange claims, you get strange results.

Here's what's going to happen. A bumpy ride for Iran and no one else if they don't make a deal and keep it.

How have your predictions on this thread fared so far?

Bam pow zing whizz bang bang. All right as long as there are colourful explosions on TV, eh?

Has Iran caved yet? Is the regime walking back its demands?

What happened to Trump’s proposed 20% tariff on traffic through the Strait? How long did that demand last?

The US is running out of munitions. Has Iran’s retaliatory capability been even noticeably compromised?

You remind me of those poor fellows who expected the Rapture last Tuesday, and when it didn’t come they just changed the date to next Tuesday instead and kept right on believing.

Too right.  The MAGA crowd would be all over that.

Cognitive decline/dementia is a very sad thing.  But in the case of the most powerful man in the World it is also deeply worrying.

It seems to have increased his narcissism and vengeful nature.

He seems to have no plan out of this terrible mistake of a War.

Probably because there isn't one.

Oh, he can end it anytime he pleases, Carpy.

The enemy is not at his gates.

I mean, Israel would not be too happy. 

But he can take his baw and go up the road whenever he wants.

The problem is he cannot face the criticism or ire it will draw from what remains of his supporter base.

His goose is essentially cooked, and he turned on the oven...

What missiles, I thought Trump demolished and destroyed all those? 




Strange...

Don and Pete well done so far you've destroyed the main threat in the ME, again, done an absolutely wonderful job of destroying the Iranian military for the good of the non Shia world.

Right, you have these things called mid terms or something coming up, not a problem, You just need to let Bibi off the leash and green light him to finish of the job in Iran. Just keep those massive all white Boeing freighters relentlessly supplying the IDF, Israel can do this on their own as long as you keep the shipments arriving, Don't even think about it, just do it. So you withdraw from the air campaign, hand the honorable duty to Bibi, then declare America is out of the conflict. Until 04/11/26

That sounds less like military strategy and more like fan fiction with fighter jets.

Iran's military wasn't "destroyed" and it clearly still exists.

And wars don't end, Orby, because someone writes a victory speech.

As to the classic "just let Israel finish the job" plan.

Sounds like the first draft of a disaster movie if ever there was one.

Iran is not a video game boss with a health bar buddy...

It's one of the world's oldest continuous civilisations.

Comprising about 90 million people and about the size of Alaska on steroids.

Iran's military is destroyed Andy, increasingly so every day and if Trump does the right thing the IDF will finish the Iranians off, for the good of humanity. These mid term things can not get in the way of finishing the job. Iran has no navy, its tanks are gone, much of its missiles are gone, its airforce is effectively non existant, its MIC that supplies the weaponry is wiped off the Iranian map, the nuke programme is set back 20 years. Iran's economy is totally destroyed too, inflation and iinterest rates through the ceiling. Job well done, but it's not quite finished yet. Total war is required to finish off the Iranians. They will collapse, or go back to the stone age. It's no monster movie Andy, it's happening right now in front of your eyes. I'm very pro Trump. I'm a Brit. I'm also a Zionist Christian and very pro Israel. Also an Imperialist, as one knows already. I just am honest. Can't help it. Proud of it too. To me Don, Pete and Bibi are doing exactly what needs to be done. Absolute legends in our time.

You can say it as many times as Trump, Orby, but it won't make it true.

Or the Iranians any more inclined to capitulate or surrender.

And calling a country's destruction a "job well done" is not a strategy.

Again, it's video-game logic.

Iran is not a defeated cartoon villain waiting for a final boss fight.

Wars have consequences.

And framing a modern war as some kind of holy mission is exactly how religious maniacs justify endless conflict.

History clearly shows what happens when politics becomes a crusade.

Do you ever consider that the Middle East is not our stage for fulfilling ancient prophecies?

Or that the millions of ordinary people who live there are not characters in somebody's end-times script.
