Well, there is the Ghaddafi treatment and/or giving the protestors arms and suicide drones.

The Iran oil island and that big island at the top of the Strait would be small bites to invade and protect navigation. Make them American protectorates until after regime change.

He's right that Vance is dead in the water for a presidential run after these statements. He's going to get the Massie AIPAC-led skull-fricking.

Most Americans probably agree with Vance on this analysis but they'll be attacking him from other angles that aren't even Israel related...and if he pipes up and says Israel lobby is out to get him then he'll be in the antisemite checkmate state.


I hope your prediction is wrong, but you're probably going to be right.

If you are in the MAGA "No New Wars" camp, then you should definitely be backing JD Vance. But the MIGA portion of MAGA might be too strong.

The fact that he is Catholic is not going to help him with pro-Israel evangelicals.

I know that Rubio is Catholic, too, but he leans to the neocon side, so the pro-Israel evangelicals will support him.

Rubio is involved in all this mess but nobody pins it on him. Nobody has come out better from this than Rubio somehow.

Yeah, this has gotten comical. Iran acts as though they don’t know who is in charge and that very well might be the case.


Iran has been pretty consistent.

When Iran took the Strait of Hormuz hostage and started bombing other middle eastern nations, Trump came to the conclusion that the US could not overthrow the Islamist regime without a costly war. Trump decided to walk away from any more armed conflict.

Iran has employed realpolitik to push more and more, daring Trump to return to military action. The Iranians have correctly determined that Trump will not respond militarily.

Iran will continue to act as if it has no limitations or constraints. It will continue to fund Hezbollah, which will continue to send rockets into Israel. It will continue to assert that it controls the SoH. Iran is dictating the terms.

As long as Trump refuses to reengage militarily, Iran will continue to expand its aggression. Even if Trump restarts military action, Iran will not change course because they have correctly evaluated Trump's weakness and exploited it.

Thats a dumb take Tboy. Trump was bombing them for 2 straight nights just last week. They called him to stop and not do a third night. That is when they signed the MOU.

If they pull any shite, Trump has said they will bomb them again.

It is an uncomfortable take, but it appears to be correct. Trump may send a single bombing run or something, but there will be no real effort to beat down or overthrow the Islamist extremists that control Iran.

More like Qatar called and said they were not going forward with their several trillion dollar investment in the USA. That's what stopped and brought about this current situation.

There was a Qatari delegation in Tehran for over 17 hours straight that did not leave until the announcement of the ceasefire and the MOU. That's not a coincidence that Trump suddenly changed course while they were involved with the negotiations.

I've broken down earlier in the thread what most likely happened here. It will be about 50 years down the road before all the details finally come out, when all the major players of this issue are dead and gone.

The world will eventually see dirty Qatari money was the center of the USA's sudden capitulation, in a conflict that our military was running roughshod over it's opponent until the leadership called off the dogs and started a 10 week period of waffling and wavering that ended with this shitty MOU that really accomplishes nothing but kicking the can down the road.

I guess after the IRGC revealed that it could hit parts of Europe, Macron got a little nervous about that program.

Nope. I dont care why Trump stopped the 3rd day of attacks. The fact that we did the first 2 proves that we can and will do it again. If there wasnt an MOU, I have no doubt that Trump would have done the 3rd and many more days of attacks. The Qatari threat would have been ignored if the MOU wasnt done.

You think the MOU is shitty? Who cares! Its an MOU. If they dont perform in 60 days, the bombs drop again.

Have you DumfrickOcrats ever done business?

An MOU doesnt stop due-diligence!

The parties involved try to do their best to complete the deal. But, it doesnt always work out. Things change.

All you complainers can do is sit back and see what happens. Lets see!
