re: US Intelligence says Iran can withstand a US Blockade for many months

But it’s in the WA PO

Iran has killed thousands of American troops over the past 30 years.

Maybe if our troops weren't in the middle east this wouldn't happen

We backed Iraq in a war against Iran and allowed them to use chemical weapons. Why are we pretending we have some moral high ground again?

Don't start bringing objective analysis, data, experts, facts, and assessments of recent events into the Iran war discussion. This is about how it makes the base FEEL. You see we drag our mighty warships and trillion dollar bomber systems over Iran and they can't stop us. And we destroy a lot of their stuff. And we kill a lot of their people. And it makes us feel like we're winning. It makes us proud to be patriots under Donny Nine Inch. It's like that smell. That gasoline smell. It smells like......victory. Don't remember that we didn't accomplish anything. Just remember how it's supposed to make us feel.

And all this before football season starts.

Hang on brother.

It's called "Stacking the Deck".

Bud I don't know how to explain this to you but if there is a global recession it will include the United States

I know why you care about it, but Bunk has made his life about America first. No globalism.

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

Selective memory? Iran is directly linked to the bombing of the USS Cole, the bombing of embassies in Kenya and Tanzania and literally hundreds of other attacks against US interests that killed Americans. So frick right off with your idiotic bullshite moron.

The USS Cole bombing was in 2000

Does the U.S. seem like a country that waits a quarter of a century to seek revenge?

Not to us directly. To the world economy yeah. Which is why those that need it open should doing more.

“ and its leaders are in hiding,” (Quote).

Duh. Wipe out the troops that are above ground and the leaders become irrelevant. There should be massive drops of communication devices such that the opposition can pinpoint local targets. Drones and A-10s should fill the skies over Tehran instead of playing around with fishing boats pestering shipping. What am I missing?
