This is f*cked up…

Dropping bombs is one thing. Managing what happens after that is the hard part.
And this is why we said he has no plan for that. The Strait of Hormuz is still a problem.

The hard part = no plan

I hope the citizens of Iran remove this regime. But I hope Trump doesn’t ask them to do it. Let the other leaders ask. He’ll get credit whether he asks or not. But sending them to get slaughtered without progress made wouldn’t look good. Hopefully the threat of ground troops if Iran misbehaves is enough. But it should only be a threat and only an implied one at that.

Not that it matters, but Hannukah is a good place to start, and Romans routinely killed a ton of Jews too. So some good, some bad. But Jews aren't running Pakistani rape gangs in the UK, and stoning women and hanging teenagers for protesting. But yeah, all same same.

And you failed to address the main point of how Israel supposedly goaded us into the war Iran started with us in 79. But keep going.

He killed essentially all of their leaders and destroyed their entire military capability, and set back any ability to re-build by decades. I don't know how you define "collapsing", but that sounds like a reasonable use of the term to me...

Just like his graceful pull out of JCPOA.
Just like his graceful handling of Ukraine.
Just like Greenland.
Just like Canada.
Just like his presser with the PM of Japan.

Master of diplomacy.

Meanwhile, Russia & Iran are helping each other out while Ukraine sends interceptor drones to our gulf allies. Russia is experiencing a double windfall from the Hormuz spike + temporarily lifted sanctions.

Master of strategy.

His lemmings aren’t capable of connecting past to present (or present to future) enough to understand how mentally retarded this is all making him look.

China can rebuild that pretty quickly once they exert dominion over Iran in this state. Iran still has plenty of oil to sell China

I asked you to explain what happens in the Temple, but ill answer. Daily throat slitting of goats, lambs, bulls etc followed by the smearing of its blood all over the temple alter. In other words, Really weird shite .

Considering whats being implied in those epstein files and with still millions to be released....I wouldn't boast about this if I were you.

I can get into that right after you honestly describe what caused the 79 revolution over there.

Actually at this point, if the Mullahs stay in power and retain the ability to shut down the straits, we lose.

Trump is great at creating a problem, fixing said problem and then taking credit for it. Reading between the lines he's basically admitting he can't fix the problem he started with the strait.

The goat frickers built Al Aqsa on top of two temples, which kinda proves who was there first.


Yeah? One of the oldest churches in the world in north Lebanon is built on top of a temple of Greeks which is built on a temple to Baal which is built on an Egyptian temple. So what?
