The boats are Pakistani-flagged, not American, and Iran made a deal with Pakistan to let through 20 boats. The US has nothing to do with it.


But if that's what he has to tell himself to get a "win" and end this shite show, then, by all means, go ahead.


I had no idea that you were really close to Pete Hegseth and them - Wow! Very cool!.. Can you let us know everything else they are doing since you seem to be the only one on this website with very private classified information from your friends over at the Department of War? Thanks

Why can't yall understand that we are at war. EVERYTHING is propaganda. His number one priority is military victory and safety. Telling you the truth right now takes a back seat to telling you honest news.

Remember when the media would say things like “Trump lied 2350 times” over his first term? Well now the media defends him (because they want war as well) and he actually is lying a bunch.

He creates a narrative, he and the party commit to it, and the party accounts for enough people that it becomes truth for half the country.

He has always lied a lot. Varying results (often works out for him).

The only difference now is that some lies go down easier than others. 2020, Ukraine, and Greenland tested the limits of him speaking outcomes into existence. 2020 only persists because it’s existential for the credibility of the RNC. This episode will be an even tougher test.

A war of choice, in the Middle East, where the goals have been fuzzy at best from day one.

Cult45 knows that Trump is a lying sack of shite, and they still cheer him on.
It really is amazing to see.

Right, to appease the price of oil from continuing to climb?

If Iran decides to charge an exorbitant toll, then traffic would just re-route to the Omani side.


Iran can shoot missiles across the strait. To the Omani side.

Have you ever looked at a map?

Since you didn't link your source, I won't link the NEW YORK TIMES article confirming what Trump said. How very un-libtard like, to disagree with the times. Almost makes me think you are only posting to spread your lies.

I’m just gonna list all of the so called objectives/goalposts that Donnie and his Israeli buddies have mentioned. Feel free to add on.

*Regime change via decapitation strike.

*Regime change via support of proxies, either the Kurds or Azerbaijanis.

*Destruction of Iran’s missile program.

*Destruction of the enrichment facilities at Fordow and Natanz, because apparently Midnight Hammer wasn’t enough.
* More strikes on leadership.

Now the goal is to reopen Hormuz.

When the media you hate and have declared a shill for the other side starts falling in line with your own talking points you should be asking more questions, not fewer.

It makes no difference how they are flagged.

There is a world oil market. These shipments will increase supply to the world oil market and drive down the price of oil for everyone.

Nah I would say it’s a pretty material detail if the public claim is “we received 20 tankers of oil”.

Also, do we feel the same way about Iran’s ability to export oil?

Also, do we care about who proportionally benefits more? Given the $40M Iran receives from those ships passing the strait alone and not including any of their own de-sanctioned exports?

Or Russia making cash hand over fist trading oil right now + trading weapons with Iran?

Is the hope that this ends with another diplomatic agreement like JCPOA? Y’all going to trust Iran more this time now that they hate us 10x as much as 10 years ago?

I’m just illustrating that MAGA has been so principally inconsistent on this front that it’s obvious to everyone not drowning in koolaid that they are just throwing shite at the wall trying to find the spin that will make this situation politically advantageous.

Movement just exists to retroactively make excuses for Trump at this point.

More like throwing catchup on the wall.

You've been consistently making good posts on the Iran situation. Odd how they don't seem to interact with you

Is it "bald" faced or "bold" faced?

"Bold" faced makes more sense to me. As in bold faced font.
It's "bald-faced" lie.

With many idioms, it doesn't help to use common sense.

"Bald-faced" means that the liar is not attempting to conceal his identity.

The smart ones agree

But yeah dissent on message boards often looks like

“good point?” Let’s leave that alone.
“Bad point?” Dogpile

I can’t pretend that’s unique to MAGA or even to the poli board.

I recommend that you gradually go quiet on this, otherwise you are going to be very embarrassed by events.


I pray that comes to pass. I do not suffer from cognitive dissonance like many on here. I'd be thrilled to be 100% wrong.

The goals are actually crystal clear but we have to talk in allusions and riddles, sadly.

I wasn't addressing the current situation. I was looking to the future.

If and when a cease-fire happens, if Iran thinks they can impose a toll on shipping, then everyone will just move over to the Omani side.

If Iran decided to fire missiles, then obviously the cease-fire would be broken.
