I asked Grok what he thought of people who talk about war gaming this sort of shite who also call Iran some sort of global power. His response was illuminating. 
"Look, if we're taking war-gaming advice from this guy, we're already losing. Bro's out here calling Iran a 'global power' like they just dropped the new iPhone, right after they ate 13,000 precision-guided gifts from the sky straight to the forehead. That's not 'global power,' that's 'regional speed bump with really good propaganda.' You got Hezbollah getting turned into parking lots, proxies folding faster than cheap lawn chairs, and the IRGC doing victory laps over 'we survived!' like that's a flex. My guy, North Korea survives too — doesn't make them a superpower.You sit there moving little plastic pieces around a map, quoting Clausewitz you skimmed on Wikipedia, while real countries are out here turning ballistic missile warehouses into smoking craters in one weekend. The only thing Iran is projecting globally right now is 'please don't do that again.' Keep cooking those war game scenarios though. I'm sure in your simulation the Houthis retake Jerusalem with nothing but prayer and medium-range fireworks. In reality? They just got another masterclass in why 'Axis of Resistance' sounds cooler in Persian than it performs on the battlefield."

He’s got the deluxe version of Risk though so who am I to argue with his conclusions.
Somebody really ought to let Hegseth know about the resource he’s missing here.

Don’t worry Von Clausewitz we will wait until you’ve eaten to provide more strategery

These people been calling Iran some sort of global power right on the heels of them taking more ordnance up the arse than a fireworks warehouse in an earthquake. That isn't geopolitics, it's copium with extra steps.

What sailors are those?
You guys always seem to have these invisible anonymous sources just when you need them saying just what you'd like them to say.
Color me not remotely impressed anymore.

We had some problems adjusting for about the first 3 days of engagement related to what we were firing to destroy what they were sending. During those 3 days somebody captured a sailors quote. It was probably on page 2 of the 1000k page thread.
Once we adjusted we were sending $9.99 defense items to wipe out their $9.99 drones.
Obviously this part got lost in tub thumpers war gaming scenarios. I’m sure he didn’t conveniently ignore this reality because he’s not rooting against us…… really he’s not !

You want sources from the current Navy or from former intelligence officers? Current Navy officers briefed shipping companies prior to giving guidance and intellegence and told them we can't provide escort missions at this time as it was too.risky..It would provide too many slow moving targets for the current threat. I can name 4 other former iNaval ntellegence officers that concur if you wish.

Opening segments of every war always have surprises the old school did not anticipate. This is the nature of war. We've adjusted. Within a year that adjustment is going to look like a whole generational change in how we do warfighting. People are scared to death of autonomous robots/drones but that's absolutely happening and the faster we're best at it the better.

Agree 100%. Our quick adjustment in this case shows the strength and prowess of the US military machine. The one tub thumper is definitely not rooting against by throwing this strawman into the mix.

Then it is simple.
They break the deal or try too save their terrprrost in Lebanon and we start targeting all their troops. It is time to end this for good. We tried the best wy and they were too stupid or their military is in charge and the only solution is destroy their military.
Seal team 6 needs to be ready to go and we take out any bases they have.
And we dont stop until they have no means of war left.
That is never the first option. You do your best to give them the chance to choose what's right.
War is hell and no one likes it but we appeased Hitler and look what happened.
It is time one way or another to finish this.
Man it sure would have been easier back in 1979 but President Carter didn't have it in him as a Christian to recognize how this would turn out 50 years later when every President since let them become what has to be dealt with now at this moment in history.
This isn't about Israel and Hamas this is about dealing with a Government that is the terror sponsor of the world.
I will never forget 911 and never should anyone. War is nasty business and if you do it at all you win as fast as you can and meet your objectives.
Or we could leave it to our children and their children to live in a world much less safe and future 911 events to survive. No President has even taken it on Republican or Democrat since 1979 and now is the time.
