Can’t quote all that. But I think it’s multiple objectives on this ceasefire and they can pivot to the most promising ones.

Try to find a power player internal who can lead a path forward. Watch what’s the regime is focusing on digging out. Set new targets. Let the regime run out of funds ans test the loyalty of those under it.

I believe the blockade doesn’t say you can’t load. just if you load you can’t leave. So Lloyd’s please let us know if they ever leave.

Really don’t like these details coming out

The Iranian delegation will NOT allow Vice President JD Vance and his team a photo-op with them. No direct talks, both groups will be in separate rooms, with Pakistan mediating. There is no trust left


The AI prompt writes itself.
To be fair the Iranians would not respond when we asked what address to fed ex the document to with the Israelis also listening.
Most likely there are multiple irans.

Maybe the deal was meant to let them fight.

But we should absolutely not be giving them time to regroup.

There’s no way this ceasefire won’t come back to bite us in the arse. Trump is making a grave mistake to stop and let them recover and think that they won’t do something out of revenge in the future. What a fricking idiot. By not completely eliminating the regime, he puts our country at risk in the future.


Yep. Only way to salvage is if there are still surprises to come

What is the general consensus among you guys - think we'll have a deal in hand or the blitzkrieg goes off at 8? Once power is out, it's on like donkey kong. Those rebels are just licking their chops to take out some IRGC.


I actually think it’s a feint. Yes we may do something more severe but I think something will kick off in a different direction. This may be a big bombing if regime bunkers and checkpoints followed by citizens rising up or any other number of possibilities.

At least you can identify a lying hit piece so easily.

If he was bloodthirsty don’t you think we would have hit sensitive areas long before now? The only people who believe this drivel are the TDS inflicted who lap it up like the most addictive soma created.

I don’t see any way to proceed without an actual regime change. They will now see obtaining a nuke as an existential deterrent and the only way to guarantee their survival. They already did before but didn’t have the Seoul threat to actually get them to that final step like North Korea did.

I don’t know how to guarantee the regime will fall but assassination missions will add up pretty significantly over time. Plus taking out checkpoints and any group of soldiers. At some point Iranian people will need to step up.
Not sure how many militia came in over the last few weeks but hopefully we are taking them out just as much as we took out the Guard and Basij.

Ultimately their coming in proves the regime can only hold on by force at this point.

Every dead hard liner is one less to cause the world problems in the future.
Will start this shortly. Enjoyed Replay and other similar concepts.
Hopefully they are safe as reported

Interestingly other than a plane being down every other detail Iran reported was false - type of plane, pilots captured etc.

Even with complete air control flying over enemy is still dangerous.
You could always set your contributions to invest in something stable and manually transfer over to stocks monthly etc. take a bit of work but if you are worried about out it it would be worth it.
Welp you can tell that grammar school is out for Easter break with the influx of troll posts.

He speaks in labels and superlatives. No analysis, thought or details. That’s how you know it’s a troll job.

Was fun. They play it safe but feels shorter than the run time.


Whole family enjoyed it. They did play it safe but executed well. Lots of good fan service moments.

Did feel a bit shallower than the first movie, which was not all that deep either. I saw a review call it hollow and I think that’s fair. Entertaining. I think it will lack a bit of the rewatch appeal of the first one.
Must be hard when a president doesn’t spoon feed you exactly what’s going on and instead uses communication to create leverage and response from others. It’s asymmetrical and exactly why Trump has always been successful. I don’t even like him and didn’t always vote for him. I just understand what he’s doing.


The war is won. It’s just a question of the terms. That’s all Iran is fighting for now. Who can remain in charge how much face can they save, what power can they appear to have. They are a proud people and the psychopaths in charge having pride and crazy combined is no small thing. I think we now have to make sure the regime is destroyed. I don’t know and most importantly they don’t know if Trump believes the same thing. And therefore that uncertainty creates opportunities and options. Which is exactly why Trump keeps them guessing.

Don’t know why I am even bothering to explain. Trolls won’t care. TDSers don’t care or lack the intelligence to even understand what’s happening. They are used to a president who only cares about his daily ice cream.

think they either 1) Got thrown off when Trump declared victory on day 3 -or- 2) Are waiting to “get bombed back into the Stone Age” — figuring that will be the best time to pick up rocks to fight for their country.


Or they are literally waiting like 2 heads of state and the potential transition leader for Iran asked them to for their own safety. It’s not hard.
Will the last IRGC general please turn the lights off?

Could do with a lot less trolls in this thread.
