Exactly

I dont agree its too far because he is referring to Islamic radical terrorists as the civilization.

Oh yeah did he call you before he posted it? Nice cope interpretation

quote:

Agreed. The low IQ crowd doesn’t understand the strategy.

This is the same thinking women use, fake a pregnancy to keep the relationship together... still falls apart in the end.

CNN fake news.... polls lol... etc.

quote:

Of course he’s said the same thing at least 2-3 times before.

This should make it clear.

Mar 3: "We won the war."

Mar 7: "We defeated Iran."

Mar 9: "We must attack Iran." "The war is ending almost completely, and very beautifully."

Mar 12: "We did win, but we haven't won completely yet."

Mar 13: "We won the war."

Mar 14: "Please help us."

Mar 15: "If you don't help us, I will certainly remember it."

Mar 16: "Actually, we don't need any help at all." "I was just testing to see who's listening to me." "If NATO doesn't help, they will suffer something very bad."

Mar 17: "We neither need nor want NATO's help." "I don't need Congressional approval to withdraw from NATO."

Mar 18: "Our allies must cooperate in reopening the Strait of Hormuz."

Mar 19: "US allies need to get a grip -step up and help open the Strait of Hormuz"

Mar 20: "NATO are cowards."

Mar 21: "We don't use it, we don't need to open it."

Mar 22: "This is the last time. I will give Iran 48 hours." "Iran is Dead"

Mar 23: "We are giving them more time."

Mar 24: "The war is nearing its end."

Mar 25: "We are still negotiating."

Mar 26: "Iran is begging for peace. They gave us a gift. We will give them more time."

Mar 27: "Talks with iran are going very well"

Mar 28: "War will be over soon"

Mar 29: "Maybe we take Kharg island, maybe we dont"

Mar 30: "Open the Strait or we will obliterate all energy infrastructure and oil wells"

Mar 31: "We dont need the strait, we got plenty of oil. Get it yourself UK."

Apr 1: "War will be over in two to three weeks"

Apr 4: "Iran has 48 hours or I'll reign down hell"

Apr 5: "Praise be to Allah! Open the fricking strait!"

The guy could barely stay awake in his cabinet meeting today but this commenter will convince himself it's because he's working so hard to make some crazy deal and Iran is playing right into his hands...

The rose tinted glasses are screwed into some skulls around here for sure.

Is pessimism a symptom of TDS or did you have that before?

---

Ah nice, I'll let you know why celebrating this is even dumber. This "gift" is nothing more than a power play by Iran. "We control the strait" "We deigned to give you this 'gift' since you're whining about the price of oil" "De facto control is ours since you've accepted this gift"

They played ol 47 like a fiddle.

quote:

---

Seems more like a gift for Pakistan.

---

India or China probably. They receive most of that oil. Tankers were flagged Pakistani, but that doesn't mean the oil was going there.

They should just give him some gold-plated "Mullah for life" trophy like everyone else has done... plenty of folks from FIFA to Amazon to Mamdani know how to get in Trump's head. He likes shiny gold things that make him feel special.

quote:

---

He just doesn’t want to come out and blame Trump directly.


No, he wants to speak out of both sides of his mouth. He muttered some BS and immediately contradicted himself.

You end up with a world in which strategic trust has dropped. Everyone has to assume the worst. You are more likely to assign nefarious motives towards others, even when in fact, they are just trying to take precautions and engage. So just trying to take the world as it is, rather than trying to assign blame or to use pejorative adjectives.

"Strait of Hormuz is safe to use"

"US is dealing with it"

"Don't worry about it"

"We will escort ships"

"We can't escort ships"

"Somebody should help"

"NATO should help"

"WHY WON'T YOU HELP, COWARDS?"

"We don't even need the Strait"

"If you don't keep the Strait open we will bomb the shite out of you."
