So US attacked Iran because they were going to close the strait anyway? That’s like saying I cheated on my wife because I knew she was going to do it anyway.

That's opening up a can of worms. Ukraine and Russia are now blowing up all kinds of civilian warehouses based on some of these BS excuses.


You cannot win a gentleman’s war. You do realize we nuked two cities one time right? Iranians are just as, if not more so, radical and dedicated as imperial Japan or Nazi Germany were. Hitting only some military targets will not break their spirit

Boom,

Ive watched four pages of this thread and you are an idiot.

Russia has plenty of oil to supply China..........then why arent they supplying it all, its a A HUGE DISCOUNT......

Venezuela and Iran were at A HUGE DISCOUNT why dont they buy it from them.....

What an idiotic analysis of the oil market and a basic understanding of supply and demand.

I said why. China's strategy when it comes to buying oil is to diversify where it gets it.

For this specific reason.

The 2 largest oil sources for China are Russia and Saudi Arabia. Iran and Venezuela combined make up less than 20% of it's oil sources.

Find another bullshite excuse for selling this ignorant war.

What was the purpose of these attacks again? Oh yeah, because Iran was fricking shite up in the strait and this was a retaliation.

We are at the point where just getting back to what things were 7 months ago will be cheered as a victory.


Let me ask you something. If you own your house(which is highly doubt, but) let's say you decided to throw bottles at cars that pass on the public street in front. And each time you did, someone came in and cut of 2 toes, each time you do it. And they burned the furniture in one room each time.
How may times could you afford to throw more bottle?
See, you dont "own" the street, but you can cause harm in the street regardless. Sooner or later, the losses they cause themselves, financially and asset wise, will be too great to keep the country viable. Especially when those assets move their ONLY commodity, oil.
We arent in a war, we are in an attrition competition. I'm am absolutely fricking sure we can last longer and obviously cause the only harm being done.

Iran was shooting ballistic missiles and drones at commercial oil tankers before the war?

How often do you think this is actually happening. We might hit one launcher for every 15-20 they fire. If that

It is. About the only thing we can salvage out of this war is hopefully getting the strait back to pre war levels of commerce.

All we’ve done is waste a bunch of very expensive bullets because Trump doesn’t have the balls to do what it takes to win the war. We look like a bunch of bitches on the world stage.

Boom and 747 are absolutely Chinese bots. I'm somewhat encouraged that this is the level of their artificial intelligence.
