Iran has most definitely not been preparing for this for decades. They were expecting a unified Iran/Russia/Syria with the Houthis, Hamas, and Hezbollah to run shields and Iraq to refuse to let us strike from their borders.I don’t think Trump has control when this war ends. As I said in a previous thread, Iran is incentivized to keep this going as long as possible and bring on as much economic pain as they can. Plus, you got Russia who is probably loving this considering we just removed their oil sanctions. They’re certainly going to want this to keep going as well. Iran has been preparing this scenario for decades. Then, there’s the Israel factor. Are they just going to stop when Trump says so? Netanyahu himself said he’s been waiting for this for 40 years.
He hates Trump, there is no rational thought involved in that!Iran has most definitely not been preparing for this for decades. They were expecting a unified Iran/Russia/Syria with the Houthis, Hamas, and Hezbollah to run shields and Iraq to refuse to let us strike from their borders.
They also expected us to be too preoccupied with China to worry about them. The admin has been setting this up since they got into office it seems. The strategic planning and coordination to move assets and shape the battlefield to our likening doesn’t happen overnight. The level of detail in this will be studied for years at the War College.
I don’t know where you guys come up with some of the nonsense that you do.
What an ignorant, ill informed commentary! Oh sure, Iran is "incentivized" to continue their own destruction? They've been preparing for the complete elimination of their entire line of succession for the country's future leadership? Meanwhile, Israel is simply waiting for Iran's resurgence, so they can do what....knock more Hezbollah fired rockets from Lebanon into Tel Aviv out of the air?Iran is incentivized to keep this going as long as possible and bring on as much economic pain as they can. Iran has been preparing this scenario for decades. Then, there’s the Israel factor.
Do yourself a favor...scroll to the 7:40 mark of that clip @WVUALLEN posted in the OP...listen to it until the end (@ 8:30) then go back and re-read what you've posted here and honestly tell yourself it makes any sense?I don’t think Trump has control when this war ends. As I said in a previous thread, Iran is incentivized to keep this going as long as possible and bring on as much economic pain as they can.
China and Russia intelligence are involved. And, I don’t know why you would be quick to dismiss that Iran hasn’t been preparing for this for a long time as if it’s a fact. We’ve been involved in numerous regional conflicts in which they’ve had a front row seat, and they’ve always known they’re a target and this day would come.

I just laugh at your incoherent rambling essays. I’m sorry you’re so desperate for my attention but I don’t have the time for your partisan nonsense. As I said in a previous post, you don’t know me but continue to spout off your broad generalizations as if you do, and I’ll continue to laugh and ignore your ignorant posts.@EER_Nation...
you're so tongue tied and obviously media mind controlled lobotomized, that whenever someone points out your inaccurate, ill educated, and unsubstantiated media/Democrat talking points...all you can muster as a defense is a pointless laughing emoticon. (Like this)
Care to factually refute what's been pointed on this forum to you as your totally misguided, misjudged, misunderstood analysis of our successful ongoing campaign to degrade then eliminate Iran's capacity to field a nuclear weapon that threatens not only our Middle East allies, but America itself?
What's so "funny" about how laughingly uninformed you are?
@EER_Nation ....responding with emoticon...

Poor guy...TDS has so raved his normal thought processes, he's reduced to a cartoon caricature as a substitute for well thought or & rational responses.![]()
Then I'll continue posting your absence of any rational defense for your misguided commentary. What's so "funny" about the fact we've disarmed Iran, erased their radical leadership, established full control over the skies and sea lanes of the Middle East and stand as the pre-eminent military power on the planet?I just laugh at your incoherent rambling essays.

You're wrong. Dead wrong. Ask the dead Iranian Mullahs. What possible scenario are you analyzing where Iran is "escalating" this conflict? Are you kidding? You can't be this uninformed.China and Russia intelligence are involved. And, I don’t know why you would be quick to dismiss that Iran hasn’t been preparing for this for a long time as if it’s a fact. We’ve been involved in numerous regional conflicts in which they’ve had a front row seat, and they’ve always known they’re a target and this day would come. They’re not dumb.
I agree these things don’t happen overnight but it certainly has not been a masterclass of military strategy like you’ve tried to paint it to this point. Despite the destruction US-Israel has brought, Iran’s escalating, not slowing down, so when I hear that this war will be “over soon” or it’s “over when I say it’s over” - there’s no evidence we have any control over that at this point and this will continue to drag on. It comes across more as wishful thinking in which the admin is looking for a way out but that’s just my opinion.
I don't need your attention...I'm simply commenting on your postings & horribly ill conceived analysis of the situation in Iran! Not only can you not back up factually anything you've commented on, when your errors are exposed with hard facts you simply run off with your arrogant nose hung in the air as if everyone is just supposed to accept your faulty assertions as fact?I just laugh at your incoherent rambling essays. I’m sorry you’re so desperate for my attention but I don’t have the time for your partisan nonsense.

They did not think we’d escalate to this level. I’m aware China and Russia are involved. But what has changed is a couple of major things. Russia is out of Syria and Assad was deposed. Russia has also bogged down in Ukraine. Hamas was decimated to the point of not being a deterring factor. Hezbollah was significantly degraded.China and Russia intelligence are involved.

I can't dissect that bot point-by-point like you do. I don't have the patience to explain the obvious to him, and I'm just left incredulous over his fundamental lack of understanding of the essential forces in conflict here. Still, you do an excellent job explaining what he's oblivious to however I doubt it matters much to him because he's so blinded by his irrational hatred for Trump and ultimate desire to see him fail both personally and for America.They did not think we’d escalate to this level.

To the point of you saying it’s escalating, it’s actually reduced about 2/3rds from what it was initially. Like all things, the enemy gets a vote, and now they’re throwing a Hail Mary to clog the strait and inflict economic pain on the region. Theyre trying to force pressure on us to either put troops on the ground to secure the area, which they know the country will likely not support, or draw the world into pressuring us to negotiate so the straight opens.
At any rate, they’re getting their butts kicked and want to negotiate to try and salvage their regime. At this point, the people of Iran have to rise up to take their country back
He hates Trump, there is no rational thought involved in that!Matter of fact he's loving every minute of paltry resistance, or trouble Iran can still manage to scrape together, even though they've been essentially decimated.
He's never said this was good for America, and he honestly hopes it ends up worse for Trump...only then will he be happy.
Excellent post, btw @DvlDog4WVU![]()

They are rooting for Iran, because they think it will hurt Trump. They couldn't care less about what Trump and our troops are doing for America and the world.
If it were homObama, Hilliary or Pedo-Joe, they would be all in.
Fact.

I'm absolutely fed up with "drive-by" posters like him from the Left who occasionally show up on here regurgitating their Left wing media spin and talking points.You are an anti-American Nazi.

They never engage, never defend their erroneous assertions, always lie, always are emotional or calling names, arrogant, ignorant and you're absolutely correct... they are nothing but anti-America Trump haters.
So tired of them all. I'm not responding to their sophistry anymore, none of 'em. It's a waste of time anyway.
They have wives? You mean like real Women...with vaginas who like real men? Do tell!They do that because they have no conviction. They are weak men who let their ugly wives run the household.

Irrational emotional tirades is truly hilarious coming from youI don't need to know anything more about you other than to read how genuinely ignorant you are, and how thoroughly unprepared you are to defend even one sentence of your non fact based emotional tirades.
Care to "unemotionally" refute any facts I "emotionally" pointed out? I realize it's a lot for a media spoon fed bot such as yourself to digest, so I'll make it easy on 'ya.Irrational emotional tirades is truly hilarious coming from you
