US-Iran War Mudpit Thread

You can nit pick all you want, but things, in the ME, for the first time in many decades are going swimmingly and moving in the right direction. 

So the Strait of Hormuz is open again, and business is booming?

Traffic moving along unencumbered and unmolested without incident?

Computer say's "No" Orby...

[andy06shake]

A little bit of levity, because, well, why not...

95 dollars a barrel.  Such fantastic  winning!

Don and Pete, good evening.  Losers.

Failure? The campaign to re-model the ME is going absolutely brilliantly with a minimum of casualties. 

Syria, taken out now on side. Iraq, destroyed as a threat. Iran destroyed as a threat. Saudi going brilliantly. Abrahamic Accords, one of the most incredible movements in 100 years, orchestrated by the genius President Trump. Israel never as strong. Russian influence massively diminished, perhaps eliminated from the region. A god send for the people. Now Iran, on the ropes. Pushed away from Syria, pushed away from Israel's borders. Having its military erased, along with its nuke development.

We even have the problem, for decades, of Lebanon, possibly about to be resolved. Shia influence eradicated along with Hezbollah and Iran, Sunni and Christian taking back control. Lebanon's leaders this week in the Whitehouse, making plans to get that Lebanese region buzzing again. Another old issue, about to be resolved, because of President Trump. 

You can nit pick all you want, but things, in the ME, for the first time in many decades are going swimmingly and moving in the right direction. The region is being remodelled, indeed saved from the mess it's been in.

"Swimmingly"?

No.  It's a colossal disaster.

But, there's none so blind as them that won't see.

I wouldn't even worry about it. Unless you are in Iran. 

Orby, the USA attacked a country that had not threatened them and that posed no threat to the North American continent.

The USA are not the good guys in this scenario.

It has been alleged that Iran funded all sorts of terrorist groups, but probably so did some people from North America, too.

The Hamas attack on Israel was evil and reprehensible, as was Israel's response by shelling Gaza, instead of by legal means of prosecuting only those who committed those crimes. There were too many innocent non-combatants in Gaza to respond that way.

That is why the ICC court of the Hague has declared Netanyahu a war criminal. That is also why Putin is declared a war criminal, for his unprovoked attacks upon Ukraine. The USA's attack on Iran was unprovoked, too.

In the initial attack on Iran, US ordinance demolished a school, killing more than 150 children. Trumb ordered that attack and he has shown no remorse for his mass murder of those children. He is evil.

You don't bring peace and lawful justice by escalating warfare. More innocent people will die in such stupid destructiveness. The world has seen enough of this warmongering madness which is often futile, economically damaging, ethically immoral and deadly to all participants.

What that idiot has done has damaged the standing of the current USA administration internationally. No one joined in with the USA, despite the appeals of that idiot, even countries that have suffered collateral attacks.

The world isn't seeing the USA as defenders of peace and law. They are now revealed as another dangerous militaristically belligerent rogue nation - bad guys - evil dudes - a gang of thugs fighting among themselves and also hurting others who just happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

The US and Israel have to destroy the Iranian regime.

The evil Iranians have made the Strait their own, charging and denying passage to what the entire world needs.

If the US backed off now, Iran would control the world's oil supply, we'd be kissing their asses.

Fortunately, we're stronger, bigger, and by God, fucking meaner than these bastards.

So they will lose and the US will have once again, saved the world.

You're welcome.

For those still against this, then you have fallen to the side of Iran and might as well wear a fucking burka and wave their flag.

As much as these clowns cry, piss and moan about Iran, they must already be doing just that.

We've seen their kind waving Palestinian flags for several years now, no reason not to believe they are doing it for Iran as well.

Too true.

They've shown their true "colours"

If the reports of additional specialized medical units and more stealth fights and bombers and etc are heading or have just arrived in support of the already deployed, it seems those additional options available just got a bit more real.
Obviously Iran would not have a good day if this escalates more so now begs the question. Why are they asking the US to do so?
Is it a bluff or do they think they have some sneaky trap that our vast think tanks and superior intel agencies are not aware of?
Have they received more robust assurances from any friends they may have? And if so who would be dumb enough to agree?
All of this is just a shit sandwich. And not the tasty kind ;)

Iranian leadership has enjoyed 47 years of doing what they want without punishment.

Look at Iran as a spoiled kid who finally rage-quitted.

They don't know how to respond to a strong President who doesn't pander and look at foreign policy as an instrument for the next election.

Trump is actually doing something right, regardless of the media and the ECL screaming.
