From the Washington Post?

So. If FOX reported on the same CIA document, would you give it more credibility?

Well good for them right? What other things have they concluded? Maybe they should swear that laptop is fake or that Trump selling nuclear secrets out of his Florida home

I don’t believe this. If they had that much they’d still be regularly attacking bases, ships and energy infrastructure. And Israel.

During a ceasefire?

Where was your “head” when Biden was sleeping in office for 4 years?

You mean the assessment that says the regime's going to collapse in 90 days if we leave our boats there?

Sir I pulled you over today because you brought facts and reasoning to the Poli board. See that sign back there, it reads feelings only, party over everything. This is only a warning by next time it will be a ticket.

I don’t believe this. We would see it if they suddenly had tons of military capabilities. They’re not holding out. Their remaining fragmented leadership, particularly the IRGC, are blood thirsty and trying to do anything they can to disrupt the US and cause damage. Look at how little they’ve been able to accomplish. The media isn’t even calling out the Trump admin for saying the ceasefire is still on after Iran has attacked US assets - bc the actual effect of those weak attacks is nothing. It’s like the 2 yr old having a temper tantrum and hitting their parent. It doesn’t even register with most parents

So 4 liberals who hate Trump built a briefing that they now illegally leaked...

So we blockade them for 3 to 4 months.

No biggie.

Their ballistic missile firing had dropped to only a few a day prior to the ceasefire

They don’t have that many left.

Yeah that same ceasefire that found them attacking our destroyers yesterday in the SOH. You actually think these are honorable people? What a dipshit you are.

We preemptively attacked a country that wasn't a thread to us. I don't know if we need to be talking about honor.

2) I hope Tulsi Gabbard can track these lying rat bastard leakers down and put them in jail. They deserve nothing less.
