I don’t blame people one little bit for not wanting to get tangled back up in the Middle East. Hell I’m not to excited about the prospect myself. But there is the way the world should be and then there is the way it really is. This fight with Iran has been coming my whole life. You could always see it on the horizon like a gathering storm. Let’s just get this over with now while we have them beat down. If we wait it will be worse later it always is. Clinton failed to take out Bin Laden because he didn’t want there to be collateral damage. Look at what that choice lead too.

We attacked them for no reason at the behest of another country. We had no plan. We have no resolve to do what it takes to actually ‘win’.

I’ve never seen anything like this and honestly don’t know what the end game should be here. I’d like for Iran and Ukraine to simply go away. And you know what? If we stop funding it, it they will go away.

They are retarded, and so is anyone that thinks they have won.

We control their oil exports and all major ports.

They are broke.

No money, no income.

All we have to do is wait them out.

They are gone - over.

LOL. Wut?

Name a country. Usually we decapitate the opposing country’s government and we are the one dictating terms.

Many of our bases are smashed.
Munitions are running low.
The Strait is unresolved at best.
SRP is at lowest levels in about 40 years.

All they have to do is wait us out.

It's over.

China is inferring the US isn’t going to save Taiwan in a prolonged combat outside of providing munitions.


First of all, China does not have the resources to take that battle on at this point and time. Secondly, the Taiwan island is a geographic fort. The amount of forces and therefore losses for China to take that island would leave them in shambles. The only benefit that China has to take them is for the labs that produce chips. Guess what, we are about to make them here. Taiwan is about to be as important as Cuba.

I would imagine there’s much more geographic benefit to the island than simply the chip factories. Also, China has expansion aims well beyond Taiwan. That’s the first stepping stone for them. They want the US out of their neighborhood.

China will not start a kinetic war with Taiwan as they will not with the US. They infiltrate from with in. Look at what is happening in the Democratic Party. Divide and conquer. They are smart and relentless.

The reparation line is over there behind BLM. Shuffle on over there and wait quietly.

Because Iran has been bringing the war to us since 1979. That is being addressed rather than kicking the can down the road.

I'm also going to ask for reparations. How long do you think I'll have to wait for pay? You think it's possible the US government can use direct deposit?

The people in hell want ice water too.

China’s doctrine is reunification with Taiwan. They seem more hellbent on it than we were with Cuba.

So be it. I will say good luck China. Welcome to Vietnam, Korea, and afgan all rapped up into one. China is all about the long game. They want Taiwan but want it without the losses.

I support Trump 100%, but..... this shite MUST end. Take out everything that makes a functional society possible.
Bridges, railways, power generation, etc.
The fricking leave. Let the ME countries handle their own shite. Or, allow Israel to do whatever they want.
