Bunch of fckers on the thread must work for msm. Lets see what has happened:
The major bank in the country has collapsed.
Bessent has not only freezed country assets but also a billion of IRGC leaders "get a way" money (by the way I thought they were just radicals, seems they like cash US cash)
Inflation is now at 89%, given some of you beetches complain about 25cents more for a gallon of gas wonder how they feel
Their own people have now stolen billions as they try to skirt sanctions and thiefs are stealing from thiefs
Despite the msm claims, very little oil is leaving the country and further hampering their desperate cash flow
Their military is missing payments
They have now increased the timing and lengths of the rolling blackouts, with manufacturing hardest hit
They cant get shat out of the ports, even the stuff that was there given all the bridges and tunnels bombed
The railroad bridge overland from China has been blown.
And then there is the destruction of most of their military and assets.
But here is the take from some aholes on here:
Well they just rebuild it will only take two weeks. Heck china will ship everything for free.
A fcking spitball hits a container in the strait and its a disaster we cant protect ships.
A fricking drone hits a neighboring country....we are doomed, doomed I tell you.
Some of you take a break, ask your mom if you can go upstairs to the bathroom and grab yourself a hotpocket, and let the United States take care of busiiness.

Dear SA,
It's already wider regional war. Ignoring the 12ver radicals in Iran wont make anything better.

Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman urged President Trump to avoid further strikes on Iran during a call on Saturday, expressing concern that additional attacks could trigger a wider regional war, according to Axios.
The appeal comes as Trump weighs strikes on Iranian energy infrastructure following Iran’s missile attack on a U.S. base in Jordan and continued disruption of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz.
Qatar, the UAE, Türkiye, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan are all reportedly pushing for de-escalation. Qatari mediators have also held talks with Iranian and U.S. officials on reopening the Strait of Hormuz, with limited progress reportedly made.

If tweet fails to load, click here. Absolute clown world
I’d never thought I’d say this, but Trump can’t get out of office soon enough. This is beyond absurd. The way he’s handled this conflict has been reprehensible. And what’s worse is that there are people on here who will do mental gymnastics and still find a way to defend him. I just can’t anymore.
Get someone in the White House who actually represents the average working-class American conservative, doesn’t get easily manipulated by foreign powers, and isn’t bought out by the DC elites. Until that happens, it’s all theatrics.

Yup. Trump was posting photos of fighter jets and other weapons of war earlier today. You knew the latest and greatest peace deal would soon follow.

By Wednesday, the IRGC will probably be attacking our bases or ships again and the whole process will start again.
They do not fear or even respect us at this point because Trump has shown them time and again, that there are no real repercussions for their actions. Anything we do is just for show lately and has accomplished nothing. They don't believe he will ever take real action and if it appears that he may do so, Qatar or Turkey will be at their fingertips to work their magic at the last minute.
These guys are fanatics and they don't give a shite about their economy, money or any of that crap normal people care about. They want their hidden Imam to appear and they believe ushering in the apocalypse is the way to do it.
They will NEVER give up their nuclear weapons program as long as the Islamic Regime is in power. NEVER. There is no deal on this planet that man can conceive that they will honor. Their entire political and military ideology is built around the pillar of death to all infidels. You can't negotiate that out of them... EVER.
We need to quit listening to all these shite hole muzzie nations that are shaking hands with the Islamic Regime of Iran in backrooms and get this over with. Show that part of the world what happens when you frick with the big dogs and actually put the fear of God in them for once.

You seem to think you are entitled to know what that strategy is.... and your assumption is that because you cannot "see" it and no one has told you then there must not be one...
Interesting....
If you read the room you would realize neither Rubio or Vance would be on board if there was no strategy....

Nope. And that's the problem. They are all such cowards that they will never stand up to true evil or the enemies of everything and every freedom we enjoy here. Heck, all of those people are actively trying to take away those freedoms from within. And YOU support them.

Why has Trump halted Iran attacks, and what is the deal he is hinting at?
quote:
Trump insists ‘perimeters of a deal has been agreed to’ as he pauses attacks on Iran. But is there any substance to his claim?
United States President Donald Trump says the US and Israel have agreed to halt new attacks on Iran, provided a deal to end the months-long conflict is reached “rapidly”.
The region has been on edge, fearing that the fighting could escalate once again after Washington and Tehran traded threats of renewed heavy attacks, including against energy infrastructure.
Trump said on his Truth Social platform early on Sunday in Iran and late on Saturday in the US that Iran and other Middle Eastern countries asked him to hold off on the attacks because “the perimeters of a deal has been agreed to”.
Iran denied Trump’s claim that Tehran asked the US to refrain from conducting new strikes. Citing military officials, the agency said the allegation “was nothing but a new lie” and that the Iranian armed forces were “on high alert and ready for any eventuality”.
Meanwhile, the Strait of Hormuz, the waterway critical to global energy supplies, remains shut, and shipping is disrupted as well in the Red Sea by the Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen.
Here is all you need to know about where the war stands on its 156th day:
Trump earlier said in his post that the US was “locked and loaded and ready to go against the Islamic Republic of Iran” but Tehran and other Middle Eastern countries asked him to hold off on new attacks.
“Based on this request, I have agreed, for the future benefit of the WORLD and, likewise, the survival of a successful and prosperous Iran, to cancel the attack, subject to being able to rapidly make a DEAL,” Trump posted on his Truth Social platform.
He said the deal “would include the Immediate, Complete, and Total OPENING OF THE HORMUZ STRAIT, and an end to Iran’s nuclear threat”.
“The Country of Israel joins me in this commitment. Get to work, everybody, and get it DONE,” he wrote in the post.
Trump and the White House did not offer any further details on what the deal would entail and who is mediating it.
Meanwhile, the US news website Axios reported that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) spoke with Trump on Saturday and expressed concern over his plans for large new attacks against Iran.
MBS reportedly urged Trump to de-escalate and refrain from launching the attacks.
Another issue plaguing Washington is the depleting stocks of munitions, and more importantly, the Patriot anti-missile interceptors
The Center for Strategic and International Studies estimates that US Patriot interceptor inventories have fallen from about 2,300 before the war with Iran to fewer than 827.
“We have depleted our interceptors… which are, obviously, necessary to protect American troops,” Democratic US Senator Chris Van Hollen told the US-based ABC network. “We are depleting these every day, despite the fact that we could face other potential conflicts around the world.”
US media outlets have reported that General Dan Caine, the chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, has raised concerns about falling US interceptor supplies. Trump has dismissed these concerns.
What is the Iranian position?
Tehran has not officially responded to Trump saying he had suspended the planned attacks or on the discussions to reach a deal.
Iran’s acting defence ?minister, Majid Ibn al-Reza, on Sunday said Tehran sees every threat from its adversaries as “real and credible”, even if ?it is made as part of psychological warfare, state media reported.
“We will neither be ?caught off-guard ?nor remain passive,” he said, adding that ?Iran would use ?threats as ?a basis to increase its military readiness, strengthen ?deterrence and enhance its military capabilities.
Last week, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi spoke with Pakistan’s military chief, Field Marshal Asim Munir; Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan; and Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud in separate phone calls to discuss the risks of further US escalation.
Speaking to Munir and Fidan, Araghchi said Iran would respond decisively to any “aggression” and discussed the consequences of “destabilising actions” by the US and how they could affect the Gulf, according to Araghchi’s Telegram account.
Iran also warned Washington against any “adventurous action” and said it would retaliate decisively if US forces followed through on Trump’s threats of new attacks on Iranian targets.
Araghchi also told Saudi Prince Faisal that any attacks by the US and Israel or participation by regional countries in such actions would be met with a “proportionate response”.
Nournews, a media outlet affiliated with Iran’s top security body, reported on Saturday that US attacks on Iranian energy infrastructure would prompt Iranian strikes on oilfields in Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates as well as the gasfields of Qatar and Israel, saying, “All will be burned to ashes.”
What’s the deal Trump is talking about?
There has been no clarity on this from either side or any regional mediating country.
Regional powers – including Qatar, the UAE, Turkiye and Pakistan – have been pressing the US and Iran to de-escalate and return to diplomacy to find an end to the war.
Pakistani and Qatari mediators have “cautious optimism” about the resumption of the stalled US-Iran talks, Pakistani government sources told Turkiye’s Anadolu news agency on Sunday.
According to the sources, mediators were expecting “positive developments” on the resumption of talks by the end of this week.
“Pakistani and Qatari mediators together with regional partners are in touch with Washington and Tehran for the resumption of talks after convincing Trump to hold off on fresh attacks on Iran,” a source familiar with the ongoing diplomatic efforts told Anadolu.
The last ceasefire, brokered by Islamabad and Doha in June, unravelled quickly, triggered by a dispute over control of the Strait of Hormuz, through which nearly 20 percent of global oil and liquefied natural gas supplies flow. In his latest statement, Trump said the so-called deal would immediately reopen the strait.
But there has been no indication from Tehran of a change of position over the waterway, which it has said would never return to the pre-war status quo. Tehran has been open to managing marine traffic in the strait with Oman.
Trump and US allies in the Gulf have firmly rejected such a set-up to manage the Strait of Hormuz.
Adding to the energy industry’s concerns, Iran’s Houthi allies in Yemen recently began threatening the Bab al-Mandeb, the strait at the other end of the Red Sea from the Suez Canal, another export route for Saudi crude oil.
