The post mixes hyperbolic victory language with admissions of persistent problems, creating an inconsistent narrative.

He also starts by saying they "will" do it, and then pivots to "hopefully" after admitting the problems and how 100% military victory won't solve them

Your headline is misleading.
The Strait of Hormuz has been closed for 2 weeks.

"Many countries will send ships" then two sentences later, "Hopefully, they will"
Trump doesn't have a plan. He's really shitting the bed. Figuratively, and probably literally too.

Is there anything this guy says that isn’t total bs?

1. Claim: “We have already destroyed 100% of Iran’s Military capability”
• This is immediately contradicted within the same post. Trump goes on to say Iran can still “easily” send drones, drop mines, or launch close-range missiles into the Strait — actions that require surviving military assets (drones, boats, missile systems, etc.).
• If Iran’s military were truly 100% destroyed (“totally decapitated” and “badly defeated” as he also phrases it), such ongoing threats wouldn’t be possible or described as “easy.”
2. Claim: The Strait will “soon” be open, safe, and free — with international warships joining the U.S. to ensure it
• This optimism contrasts sharply with the post’s own description of persistent dangers (mines, drones, missiles) and the need for ongoing U.S. bombing/shooting of Iranian boats/ships.
• He admits the U.S. must “continually” engage in aggressive actions along the shoreline and in the water “one way or another” to clear it — implying the strait is not currently open/safe, and the multinational coalition he hopes for (China, France, Japan, South Korea, UK, etc.) isn’t yet materialized or confirmed.
3. Overall tone of total victory vs. ongoing active combat
• The post portrays Iran as utterly defeated (“totally decapitated,” “no matter how badly defeated they are”) yet still capable of significant disruption via asymmetric tactics. This creates a whiplash between claims of complete military annihilation and the reality of a continuing, unresolved threat requiring sustained U.S. firepower.

China?
wtf.

So we’ve destroyed 100% of Iran’s military capability but they’re still able to launch drones and lay mines?
Sounds like we haven’t destroyed 100% of Iran’s military capability.

Your flow is down to a trickle little boy. Down to grasping at straws now.

You think presidents draft complete war plans themselves? There's not enough hours in a day...
He's picking action plans other military experts have created based on the intel/council he's getting.
America isn't winging this. It's all planned.
That said, it does seem obvious that not everything is going according to plan.

No war plan in the history of all war, or plans, has ever survived first contact with the enemy.
The plan is simply that, something to start with and adjust off of as necessary depending on realities on the ground.

I want to know how most of you think this will end and how we will get there.
Genuinely curious to see your plans.

Cool, this presupposes there actually is a plan which proves my point.

Yes. And I think the war is going pretty well so far.

What error in reading comprehension brought you to the mindset that I have any plans, expertise, or foresight related to this conflict?

Antifa has flooded this thread. Their feeble attempts to convince normal people here we are failing in Iran is laughable. The only thing failing here is their pathetic views.
