The good news is once Iran opens the strait to traffic the U.S. will be able to pay a toll and finally sail their Navy to Bahrain and hoist the mission accomplished banner.

Iran has Trump bent over a barrel and is going to frick him dry

That stupid bastard should have never fricked with Iran. One of the worst moves in presidential history.

After further review, this thread title looks like it is for a bad Iranian propaganda movie.

They had other plans.

How does Iran have the ability to make these threats, enough to where they are taken seriously?

Why can’t the US guarantee safe passage? The strait isn’t that big.

All you clowns who keep spouting off: "Trump needs to take the gloves off and get serious". Do you not understand that he has run through every available option in the last 6 months? It didn't work. They won. We lost. Now it's time to go home. Trump knows it. Everyone in the world knows it. Most important: Iran knows it. They took our best shot and they're stronger than they were before. Better get used to that idea.


Spot on, unfortunately. We have lost this war.

You pussies would have surrendered to Japan after Guadalcanal! I'm embarrassed to have you as my countryman.

China and Russia are providing weapons.

Trump’s “War Dept” is a totally loser especially spending hundred of billions a year more than Russia/China combined.

"China and Russia are providing weapons."

Iran is being told what to demand by both of them. Not an original demand came from the Iran so called leadership.

They could give a Fukk about the Iranian people. They don't think Trump would do it and if he did do it they would love watching us burnup a lot of weaponry.

That’s correct. Time to leave. But the issue is that the US bombing campaign caused the IRGC closing of the strait.


This is the hook. Oil prices are relatively low right now because we are draining our reserves and China theirs. When those run dry and us and China have to begin buying oil on the open market , watch out. If Trump had 3 more years of oil in the SPR, he’d probably just leave. But, we only have about three more months.
