BTW your information is from media sources that don't paint the entire picture. I've seen everything we've done and it's far from a loss. Only problem is that it's classified so I can't share because I value my job. The reason why it won't get released is because while we use 4th maybe 5th generation weapons so we don't want to openly disclose everything that happened. In other words, I'm fine with idiots calling it a loss.

Common sense goes a long fricking way.

Nobody is arguing our military isn't badass and we can bomb the shite out of anyone and control the air, or anything like that. But this operation, to be successful, required a lot more than that. Don't get it twisted.

Why? Having to deal with a humanitarian and refugee crisis in our own backyard?

We didn't get regime change
We didn't remove their nuclear capability
They have shown they can shut down the SOH and we can't do much about it



These are facts. We've already got people proclaiming a Noble Prize for Trump because he "ended" this war. The delusion is absolutely unreal.

Removal of nuclear from Iran and no weapons for Iran is my red line


To add, a lot of death and destruction.

There is someone in the other thread proclaiming victory b/c our allies, who had no part in starting the war and who didn't want to lose the war, couldn't open the SOH in a conflict of which they weren't even participants.

Biggest red line


Any control over the Straits of Hormuz traffic, such as fees for passage, would be a second.

We cannot withdraw any forces. That's also a deal killer.

There’s a big difference of unfreezing their own money and giving pallets of cash.

No nuclear material refinement
No nuclear weapon/weapons grade material
No ballistic missiles/development
No reparations of any kind
No restrictions whatsoever on Strait of Hormuz
No attacks on people of Iran

Any violations of any point and we send the ordnance.

No one in this thread knows all the plans and options currently available to the Trump Administration. It may be entertaining to discuss but you should acknowledge that the ultimate outcome of what occurs in the days ahead will not be known for months or years.
