I’ll bet you wished we had. But we haven’t. Mostly because people like you pretended it wasn’t happening or wasn’t a big deal. And now you’re soiling yourself because Trump isn’t bombing the shite out of things. Just a few weeks ago you were soiling yourself when he was

Because negotiations progressed. Good lord. Have you never taken part in a negotiation?


I remember you doubting my acumen because I was so certain that the perjury charge against Comey would be dismissed because Halligan wasn't eligible. Fun times.

Here, I find it almost impossible to believe that President Trump isn't lying when he claimed that negotiations had progressed in between Rubio's news briefing on Operation Freedom which ended. about midnight Tehran time and Trump's announcement about 3 a.m. Tehran time. You think Rubio was left out of the loop?

You're psychotic. Point to ANY post where I complained about Trump's conduct of the war...or admit that you're a vile liar.

What on Earth are you talking about with "people like me?" Again, find anything I said in favor of Biden...or admit that you're a liar.

To Bbonds’ point, Iran has said 1,000 times they are not talking until the blockade is lifted. Maybe this gesture gets them to the table.

The blockade was not lifted. According to President Trump we are suspecting the humanitarian Project Freedom AT THE REQUEST OF PAKISTAN.

Again, hard to believe any of this. Why would Pakistan not want us to help commercial vessels transit through Omani waters? How would that be an impediment to negotiations with Iran, but the blockade of Iran (an act of war) is not?

I was under the impression that Project Freedom is intended to not escort any “new” ships into the strait, but instead to escort ships out that have been more or less stranded. Perhaps I’m wrong though.

You're not wrong. That was the intention of the late, great Project Freedom.

Two different parts of the equation. The blockade is designed to crush Iran's economy. Operation Freedom was to help the US economy.


He may be waiting to allow more time to arm the people. He may be waiting, because behind the scenes, what they are doing is working. It would not be strategic to tell everyone, including those in our country rooting for failure, what the plans is.

reading this thread is like watching a blind man trying to find a hand hold.

The blind man is the MAGA cult members and the hand hold is whatever coalescent talking point that hasn't yet been put out by the cult leaders.

We get it bro, anyone who doesn’t agree with you is a MAGA cult member yadda yadda.

Anything new or fresh to add, by chance?

Refute your point? You’re entire post was a metaphor about a blind man. I guess to refute I could just say “That’s not true.” I’m gonna go with it:


That’s not true.
