Pretty terrible. But it beats the city Iran may nuke if they continue to enrich uranium.

This seems like a good thread to save and come back to a few months down the line.


When Trump wins and proves you panican TDS nerds to be the losers you are... AGAIN. I agree. Save it and we'll check back in and laugh.

Considering every administration previously (Trump episode 1 as well) allowed this problem to fester, it was time to do something.


And the Epstein files were certainly a catalyst for that

You have to go all in on regime change now or this will make Iran much more of an adversary in the future.


How’s our long term success rate on regime changes historically? Is it over 0%?

Are “preventative wars” constitutional? Seems to set a pretty insane precedent and also insanely aggressive. How’d all this work out in Iraq?

I am interested to see what they do to stop Iran from blowing up ships in the strait. We have to find a better way to handle drones than what we are currently doing.

In the end, the Iraq war achieved the desired results with a lot more casualties than necessary.

This is results and almost no casualties. (for us anyhow)

Well we haven’t achieved much of anything so far and we have taken casualties. We need to keep pressing to ensure an Iran with a regime that won’t fund its traditional proxies and won’t threaten to close the strait of Hormuz.

Estimates right now say we have hit 5000+ targets in Iran. Killed most of their senior leadership, buried nuclear facilities again, sunk every boat they had, decimated their entire air force, hit every military base they have (or had).

But yeah no achievements?

I'm curious to see how this plays out as well.

The achievement that matters is having a government in place that we can manipulate, whether that’s the current Ayatollah’s regime or a new one

That sounds great and all. But let's be honest, after Afghanistan and Iraq, can we really expect that to be simple? Insurgents know the playbook to grind out a war for a decade or more, forcing us to lose support for the war, then they get to keep being shitheads after we leave.

Trump's approach is to beat them into submission with very little loss of American lives, turn everyone else against them when the shut down the oil shipments in the gulf and fire missiles on their neighbors.

I think Trumps approach is worth a shot before ever considering a ground war.

unfortunately they are still putting up a fight so its not nearly as flawless as you think. And the longer they keep fighting and having a supreme leader isnt going to bode well.

we whooping arse but can't really compare a campaign that is using only air and naval assets to ones that had ground forces involved.
