They have killed US troops in this war.
How many US troops have been killed in this recent Iranian retaliatory onslaught?...
We honestly will never knowHow many US troops have been killed in this recent Iranian retaliatory onslaught?...
And if Iran were truly able to retaliate why wouldn't they attack our naval forces?, you know, the actual source of our attacks on them?,.. They don't, because they can't,.. Because at this point Iran is left with lobbing miscellaneous junk towards empty stationary targets located in their neighbor's back yards.
just refusing to learn literally a single lesson from all our failed military adventures the past few decadesAnd if Iran were truly able to retaliate why wouldn't they attack our naval forces?, you know, the actual source of our attacks on them?,.. They don't, because they can't,.. Because at this point Iran is left with lobbing miscellaneous junk towards empty stationary targets located in their neighbor's back yards.
They are easier to locate, they are easier to hit as moving ships are a difficult target, and attacking shifts would be an escalation they are perhaps working into their equation.
Idiot.
As I indicated, it's all they have,... Nice signature.
Then why would they pursue it? Why would every administration from both parties going back decades warn about the danger of Iran obtaining a nuclear weapon?The nuclear option will never be used by countries that possess it.
the only people who don't recognize and admit the iran war for the foreign policy fiasco it is are the social media obsessed maniacs that praise trump for walking off a plane late at nightI mean, all Iran can do is blow up commercial oil vessels and shut down the strait of hormuz whenever they want because insurance companies and maritime companies won't want to lose their assets. How much power could they actually have?
Why waste your time attacking a vastly superior military when you could pester commercial vessels and have a larger impact?
Do you think we'd be engaged in this kerfuffle with Iran if they already had a nuclear weapon? It's a deterrent that very clearly works.Then why would they pursue it?
You know and we all know why people are confused. They dum(b).The nuclear option will never be used by countries that possess it.
It's being used as a "deterrent" in every case where someone's enemies are aware of the "potential".
I don't understand why people are confused?
That doesn't matter, what matters is they have the capability, we were told they didn't and they are trying.How many US troops have been killed in this recent Iranian retaliatory onslaught?...
That doesn't matter, what matters is they have the capability, we were told they didn't and they are trying.
you've been saying this for (not exaggerating) over 100 days nowIt actually does matter,.. It matters because at this point, beyond playing an Iranian version of Hamas, they don't have the capability.
you've been saying this for (not exaggerating) over 100 days now
i think some would disagree that their actions (and impacts of those actions) in the Strait amount to "harassing some commercial boat traffic"And beyond harassing some commercial boat traffic, a very Hamas type of thing to do,.. They haven't done anything.

but i realize you're one of these guys who claims this whole iran thing couldn't be going any better...so what's the point
According to who???It actually does matter,.. It matters because at this point, beyond playing an Iranian version of Hamas, they don't have the capability.
nothing they say on this mattersAccording to who???
Last year, June???, Trump was bragging that the bombing of the underground facilities had COMPLETELY destroyed Iranian sites.
Then, months later, Trump's excursion started. An excursion that was only going to take a few days to complete.
Here we are, 4/5 months later still dicking around with no end in site.
I swear you people can't be this dumb...and then I see you posting.
JFC
Me,.. I just said that, then you read it,... Me.According to who???
So...the Trump approach...keep repeating a lie hoping people eventually believe it as the truth.nothing they say on this matters
it is all just absolute, complete bullsh*t
we know it is...they know it is. but they have to just keep going...can't admit anything at this point

During comments to reporters between March 23 and March 25, he asserted that the United States had "won" the conflict and that Iran wanted "to make a deal so badly". During these statements, he claimed that backchannel talks led by his son-in-law Jared Kushner and special envoy Steve Witkoff were underway, and that Iran was ready to agree to never possess a nuclear weapon and to forgo uranium enrichment. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/...n-are-holding-talks-iran-wants-to-make-a-deal
As tracked by a CNN media tally following his latest remarks aboard Air Force One, Donald Trump has stated that Iran wants to make a deal "very badly" or "so badly" 39 times. https://www.cnn.com/2026/06/09/politics/times-trump-iran-deal-close
We should believe him yo
But they very badly want to make a deal(!) or maybe he's lying? One thing we know for certain is he doesn't have a fuggin clue what he's doing or how to end this thing that he promised would be over in a few short weeks. $115 BILLION later, it's obvious he's made a tragic mistake that will have us all paying for many years, when we could have avoided all of it if he had just left the original deal in place.this time he's rightTIC
Whenever Iran drops a missile or drone on a tanker in the strait, it shows me that they DON't want to make a deal. As I've posted trump screwed up the endgame in this war, He should have continued the bombing at the same time conducting negotiations. Plus if one thing is evident (and has been for 47 years), you'd better have some severe enforcement parameters, because Iranians seem to be experts in working around what they've agreed to.
How can you tell?@Rifler has gone full potato
Holy ****. A midget man with the cauliflower ears is calling a regular-sized fella a "tough guy?"We got a tough guy here.
"I'm a 'DOKTOR' who believes men can become women."I also chose #2. What about our decades in Iraq makes you think we'd have this wrapped up in 5-8 years if we went with #1?
You should piss up a rope, ya big ol' phaggot.The UN should rightfully tell us to piss up a rope.
GeNoCiDe is when A-rab phaggots fly in on lawnmowers to murder Jooooos and then demand no one should expect retribution.What does that make the US? We sponsor Israel's genocide in Gaza.
"Also, males SHOULD be in female sports."Yes, I'll elaborate. You supporting the SWARM is a byproduct of which has ruined NCAA sports. I think most of us are passionate about Hawkeye sports. Doesn't make you any more passionate because you donated money to help buy a team. Again, I'll be passionate (as much as I can be for 18-24 year old kids playing a game) without the label.
You're phaggot-*** believes dudes should be able to play female sports.Support the Swarm - hasten the demise of the NCAA.
Don't support the Swarm - hasten the demise of Iowa Athletics.
I choose to keep Iowa competitive while the ship goes down.
