US-Iran War Mudpit Thread

[FlyersFan]

I honestly think he's being played by Netanyahu, the same way Putin plays him, or they both have something on him?

Played?  Could be.
Blackmailed?  I doubt it.
OR ... Iran really is on the verge of nuclear weapons 
and this had to get done sooner rather than later.

It's war time.
No one tells the truth in war.  (or ever?)
We probably will never know the truth.

I agree.  They should have taken care of this years ago.  Instead the UN gave Iran money to build even more weapons and expand their nuclear program in secret uninspected areas.  I am sure that their sixty percent enriched material is even more refined by now.  We could not bomb that material, it would have created a disaster in that whole region if it was blown all over last time we bombed the area....

I think it comes as vessels have started turning off transponders and moving through the strait.

The big drop came as Trump kind of did a mission accomplished statement (war almost complete).

I think people are confused, because they never knew the objectives.

We were hearing regime change, destroy all ballistic missiles, end nuclear program that we already destroyed.

Alas, Trump may have done one of his famous create a huge crisis then “solve” it 4d chess moves.

"REPORTER: "Can you give us an idea of what unconditional surrender looks like to you? What do you want from Iran?"

PRESIDENT TRUMP: "It's where they cry uncle or when they can't fight any longer — there's nobody around to cry uncle. That could happen, too, because, you know we've wiped their leadership numerous times already."

"So it's if they surrender or, if there is nobody around to surrender, but they're rendered useless in terms of military.""

Energy Secretary Says Oil Tankers To Resume Normal  Movement in A Few Weeks

BOOM!

He said that and the markets turned around.

It was down 500 points this morning, but it closed up 240 points.

BIG turn around.

Still 3,000 points lower at closing then it was a few weeks ago.

Gotta' get that back.

It's been a roller coaster today.

He said the war is ahead of schedule and complete, pretty much, markets pumped.

Then within an hour we got:
"We will not rest until Iran is totally defeated"
"WE HAVEN'T WON ENOUGH"

Hard to read the tea leaves. Feels kind of "Mission Accomplished" counting the eggs before they hatch. But he is Teflon Don for a reason, and has squeaked his way out of a lot of sticky situations. 

The thing that separates this from some of the crazier tariffs or other bluffing he's done is this isn't something you can just tweet to undo. The new Supreme Leader lost most of his family, Iran's oil industry got hit hard recently. Tehran got rocked. On one hand, they may take the L and start focusing on rebuilding their country. On the other, they may try to make the region and world hurt too.

Boots on the ground then No boots on the ground.
Just getting started then Going faster than we planned.
