Watching people say shite like this, then saying BASED in the thread where Trump tweeted that our allies should re-open the Strait on their own, has given me whiplash.

Arm that protestors with thousands of Ukraine like FPV drones, and the regime's forces will crack.

B. Isolationist action
It's the ending of an interventionist action.
An isolationist action would not have troops there to withdraw.

Yes, but of all of the criticisms by isolationists, which one has been parroted more often the last month than any other? Ding, ding, ding.
Again, you're creating a false choice and ignoring that just because the worst possible outcome may not happen doesn't mean that a terrible outcome happened (due to ignoring isolationist philosophy and engaging in the exact opposite).
This is not a binary scenario and your false choice is a fallacy.

Why did we have to go and start a GD war? Why not just “obliterate” Irans nuclear capacity every single time they get anything going and call it a day?

Is it? I see it around $12-$15.
Western Canadian Select (WCS) crude oil is trading around US$55–$60 per barrel. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil is trading between $100 and $107 per barrel.

Please link me to the military intelligence, including the classified material, that proves that the US had no legitimate interest in this action.
That's what all you YOU guys ignore.
Then we can't question any action by the government if someone used secret squirrel intel to reach the decision. We can't question Iraq or Afghanistan either, we'll just have to trust Cheney's explanation.
I'm not ready for that black pill.

He can’t just keep flip flopping based on how he feels that day. A global energy crisis has spawned out of this. NATO countries are openly breaking with us and are already or soon to be cutting deals with Iran behind our backs.
The craziest outcome of this is the EU getting closer to both China and Iran, and China exerting more dominance/relations with Iran. This is basically finishing the job tariffs tried to do.
It would be an absolutely terrible outcome for Trump's 2nd admin. Historic self sabotage and economic suicide.

This is disastrous to American legitimacy. And it shows that our military is incapable of actually removing the Iranian threat without a significant loss of life by our personnel.
We’re very close to handing Iran a strategic victory.
I know we tend to laugh at some of the guys on here like Decatur and RFK who staunchly defend the trans-atlantic alliance, but maybe it was dumb to burn it all down.

Most would prob wind up being used against Americans, it’s insane to even think about arming those people

Poland told us to frick off just today. We requested for some of their Patriot missile batteries be moved to the Middle East.
We’re burning goodwill everywhere.

We can't sustain our economy by relying on poor countries like Poland, El Salvador, and Venezuela

All of which renders your observation about our heavy crude imports completely effing meaningless.
The US will make bank in this environment.
Trying not to be insulting, but your post lacks basic understanding.

Careful. Like with tariffs, SDV is about to ask how much more YOU specifically paid for a barrel of oil. I've never bought a barrel of oil in my life, so oil prices don't affect me!
