Not saying they are lying, but they are lying.


Their military capabilities these days are digging deeper holes to hide in.

Why is it not possible to think Russia and China are resupplying them weapons covertly? if you think this isnt happening your really naive.

Of course they are. It’s just a question as to scale and quality. And with shipping closed it would be either what can come in from a plane from china ir what Russia can free up come their own war.

By no means would it come close to making up what they have already lost or shot/fired.

Sucks for that pilot. From what I've heard, once your body has been subjected to the ejection process more than once, they typically ground you afterwards due the damage it causes to the spine via rapid compression during the ejection process.

Maverick would get shot down 10 out of 10 times on short final with his gear down.

I always consider the source.

Discernment is a key skill we should all develop.

All sources of "news" have an agenda, a bias, a slant of some for. Always have and always will.

Interestingly enough, I listened to a podcast earlier this morning about the history of Qatar and Al Jazeera. Al Jazeera has a bias toward Iran as a check against the Saudis who have tried to bully Qatar for decades.

They also almost always try to paint Israel as the villain.

Those who understand discernment know how to cut through the obvious bias in order to ferret out the facts.

I use a variety of sources for news, both domestic and international.

It sounds odd to say this, but I find that the Daily Mail is one of the least biased and thorough of all the global news sources. They have even scooped the Oklahoma media on stories that were exclusive to Oklahoma.

Why does it have to be China or Russia? Why not Pakistan or Afghanistan? They both share borders with Iran (and each other).

I don't know why we're there anyway. Israel today is not the Israel that was talked about in the Bible. They use the United States like Ukraine did when Joe Biden was in office

Keep in mind that, prior to the ceasefire, they were down to almost nothing.

It is not that farfetched that they have been able to resupply to some small degree during the ceasefire.

I don't think they're claiming that they are stronger now than ever. That would be ludicruos.

Anyone who voted for Trump (as I did) knew, or should have known, that he had stated several times in the past that Iran must not be allowed to develop nuclear weapons.

The question is, how close were they, in reality, to having nuclear weapons?

Iran kind of shot themselves in the foot when they bragged to Steve Witkoff that they possessed 1000 lbs of 60% enriched uranium. They should have kept their mouths shut.

So, when Bibi was trying to convince Trump to go all in, Iran popped off and made Bibi's case for him.

Iranians are liars. You can't trust them for one second.

Have you ever heard them tell the truth in all the years.

Basically, they are cowards.

I know this is not ideal, but the American people need to start wrapping their heads around after bombing them to the dark ages we will need troops deployed to take out their military.

Get all the Uranium out that Obama the worst President in USA history gave them. And Biden the Incoherent one that in 12 years led our country to this point.

I dont have children but those of you that do better start thinking about do you want a world with Iran having a Nuclear weapon. China, Russia would not be safe either. They hateanyone that does not worship Allah.

I don't believe that is the question. If someone really really wants to kill me, it isn't smart to wait for them to enter the gun store before trying to stop them.

The fact that they have been saying for decades that they want to kill us is enough.

If you don't think that is enough well they have killed hundreds of Americans either directly or thru proxies. Is that not enough to stop them before "they are close"?

Screw letting them get close. They want us dead and that is enough right there.

It kind of sticks with the pattern. Trump says we are hours away from the deal, the Iranians refute it and say talks are shut down completely, Trump calls the reports fake news, it is soon reported that there is no deal and talks have ceased.

Qatar has used its wealth to rival Saudi Arabia's influence in the Mooselimb world Libya post Qaddafi was a Saudi vs Qatar proxy war before descending into a couple hundred Bloods and Crips sort of battleground. Qatar allied with Iran. After Shell built Pearl GTL complex in Qatar, they lost all contracts and JV's in Saudi Arabia, where it had operated for decades.

FTR, a client had $20 billion sitting in an account from the Bank of Qatar, for purchase of oilfields and to build a refinery in Libya post Qaddafi. It never settled down enough to access the money sitting in the Paris branch.

This is why we should have destroyed the roads and train tracks coming into Iran. At least the bridges should have been taken out.

Yes. If they actually follow their faith. That is why it is illegal to allow Muslims to immigrate to the USA. It is a shame that we do not follow the law.
