Im in favor of the offensive and more MAGA and pro Trump as anyone on this board, sso its not a piling on or thinking I know better.. but As meticulous as the Israelis are, one would think this wouldve been a priority item.

Given Iran's location and their assets, I'm not sure that is or was 100% possible.

Any type of conflict with Iran is going to disrupt operations in the Strait of Hormuz.

Also, Israel doesn't GAF about Hormuz. They don't need it.

All the "experts" have been wrong with regards to Trump. So I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.



People who gave up this soon aren't trump supporters. You just aren't retarded enough to vote for a drunk Indian.

This 100%.

When you understand why, and who, this war is being fought for, you know this.

You are surprised Trump didn’t have a plan? Have you been in a coma since 2016?

Ffs they hit the meeting of Irans top leaders earlier than expected.

That ability to erase 40-50 assholes skewed the timeline.

What's the evidence there was "no plan"?

Me too.

It's self - evident that Mr. Jeffries and The View are right in that this war is lost and that Trump is an international criminal for launching this illegal war of aggression.

Let's hope that the International Court and Judge Boasberg can Rule that the USA must return Iran and the Mullahs to Status Quo Antebellum.

AND - more illegal aliens to come here, too. We need them, for sure.

Ask any Pink-Haired Karen whether she would want to be ruled over by Trump or the Mullahs and every one of them will choose the Mullahs and say Allah hu Ackbar.

Nope, not a Trump supporter, I support America. And that’s who Trump was supposed to advocate above everybody else. It has been an epic fail, this go round. I had such hope that he was really gonna do some awesome things. But so far it’s been nothing but closing the border and that is it.


Not what I voted for

I think we thought that wiping out their leaders would remove their capability and willingness to do anything in the strait. We have pretty much obliterated most of the things they have and correct me if i am wrong but they didn't really do anything until almost a week and a half after we started the bombing...im still kind of amazed most of their army hasn't waved the white flag. I think many not in the know, me included, underestimate just how powerful Iran is,,,and we are still making them look like chumps.

The mission is going to plan, is Israel going to be wiped out before they achieve it is a different question.

The USA doesn't need the strait either.....China and rest of the area does!

We should totally stop all purchases from the ME.....we can drill/baby/drill here!

This will end up good for the USA, IMO.

Oh boy…

We should be able to navigate the strait of hormuz freely then right? And our allies also. And we can return everyone to our based and Israel won’t continue being pummeled with drones and missles right?
