This makes sense from Israel's perspective, does not make much sense from ours.

But it does.
Middle East Peace makes TOTAL sense from our end.

Iran is in a strong position against the US strategically because they have significantly affected global oil markets.

no they haven’t. It barely broke 100 and it’s in the low 90s. The world has shown it has adjusted.

Dems in power, and pushing their green agenda had a more significant affect.

Can you tell me what strategic advances Iran has gained and what has the USA lost since the start of the war to make the claim that Iran is in a better position than the US?

He uses words to bully people into getting what he wants without actually doing anything.

So he just has to threaten and people listen? And why do people listen? Is it because he has followed through on threats previously?

You are such a retard that you prove your own point wrong in your argument.

I call BS on this leaked contents call. The article has its own meme.

I know the Daily Tail can be hit or miss. But TRUTH SOCIAL certainly spells it out as well.

Anyone who thinks the United States is in a weaker position now and that Iran has us by the short hairs is delusional. Plain and simple.

Our express war aims for the initial strikes were regime change & eliminating Iran as a nuclear threat, no? If it was simply to kill the Supreme Leader only to continue dealing with the IRGC then that accomplishes nothing. The IRGC has proven that they're both willing and able to withstand an air campaign. The Iranian people are not adequately armed in order to take on the IRGC on the ground. They've also effectively closed the Strait and we've proven that we're either unwilling, or unable, to open it back up.

That means the US has a choice coming up and all of these stupid "deals" that continue to fail are being used solely to buy us time to move more forces to the region. Eventually we're going to have to either go in on the ground in order to eliminate the IRGC or we're going to be forced to sign a deal with members of the IRGC which, we all know, cannot be trusted. So, Iran currently has us backed into a position where we'll have to strike a deal with them, meaning they survive and continue to run Iran, or we have to launch a ground campaign which no one will support.

Tell me which part I'm wrong about. In other words, yes, Iran has us backed into a weak position. Trump was stupid enough to follow Bibi into this war. Both Vance & Rubio called Israel on their bullshite, but Trump decided to disregard the opinions of both his Vice President and Secretary of State and trust the Israeli PM instead for "some" reason.

You, and the administration, can say, "we've destroyed their navy and air force" until you're blue in the face, but that was never our initial strategic aim. It was to deal with the problem of them pursuing a nuclear weapon once and for all by removing the IRGC. Unless Trump is willing to launch a ground invasion the IRGC isn't going anywhere. We've also greatly damaged our diplomatic power on the international stage by repeatedly calling officials to meet only to airstrike them. We've proven that our word cannot be trusted. Whether or not that comes back to bite us in the future remains to be seen.

You know, disagreeing with this endeavor doesn't make one any less MAGA, any less Conservative, it doesn't even make one necessarily less of a Trump supporter. But people on this board equate any criticism of Trump or his decisions to being a damn leftist. This place is as bad as Reddit at times.

no they aren’t. Ask yourself this, who can afford to just sit with this stalemate for the foreseeable future? The one whose ports are blockaded or the one whose ports are open?
