Do you usually make posts when these same units are always deployed and in the same areas? Do some of you think the military just sits on US bases when there’s not a conflict? The overall goal of the military is to eliminate enemies and protect safety for us and our partners 24/7 365.


There's a lot of red arse in this thread. I'm asking the PT regulars what their opinions are on how the US should proceed with Iran and the whole forum is bleeding out.

Who is better than Trump to fix what Trump broke? That's an awfully absurd question. I would say it is his responsibility to fix it since he broke it. We have seen nothing to suggest that he is capable of doing so.

You shouldn’t voice your opinions in public moving forward

Yeah you are right Trump broke it. They have just been building up thousands of ballistic missiles for the fun of it. It's not like they ever planned on using them. It is also not like this cancer has been festering and manufacturing terrorism for decades.

as of today many military strategists could make a solid argument that Iran has indeed won this military conflict.



You and your fellow Reddit retards are not even close to any kind of strategists.

No shite, should have just kept this to yourself instead of advertising your profound ignorance though.


You're one of the red asses, what's your plan?

I can show you my posts since this military conflict started where I state the timing sucks elephant balls but now that we're in it we have to win it.

The OP is looking for intelligent responses on how to defeat the Islamic Regime so we can all throw a fricking parade.

Agree, it would make a iraq look like a picnic. People forget the Iranian army is largely intact. It would be a brutal door-to-door combat type of thing with an invasion.

The other factor are the midterms. Something‘s has to be done soon. I’m convinced gas prices will determine who controls the house and Senate.

Trump’s biggest mistake as a President was getting drug into this mess. He promised no new wars and getting out of the ME. Then he did this. Makes me think the Israelis really are sitting on some tape from the Epstein blackmail operation of him banging some 17 year old.

My opinion was I'm not sure of the best strategy to defeat the Islamic Regime, that's why I asked the PT regulars what they think. What do you think?

Trump can bomb every power plant and major highway and water plant
and bridge in a week.

90% of the the Iranian population will die in one year.

Iran has been killing Americans since 1979. This isn’t going to be a super quick solution. I’m happy we took out as many leaders as we did. Hopefully we take out many more.

I’m patient.

We goals have been achieved? There is no long term nuclear deal. They still have uranium and global shipping is worse than before the war.


We blew up a bunch of shite and the IRGC is still backing out of deals.

All reasonable, and pull and apply all drone and other asymmetric assets from Ukraine and apply them to Iran while forcing Ukraine's long overdue surrender.

Let's hope and pray the Democratic Socialists do not take power after the midterms and our military planners figure out a strategy to claim victory over Iran.

I know this OP has triggered the dog shite out of a lot of regulars.

It’s possible that Joe Biden could run for President in 2028

It’s possible he could win

It’s possible he would be better to fix this than Trump.

It’s still possible.

You're saying we can't beat Iran head on so we have to sacrifice Ukraine to Russia (an ally of Iran) to beat the Iranians?

This is what winning looks like I guess.

I like how you just glossed over the fact that Trump is the one that broke it in the first place
