USA Goes to War Against Iran
Time for a dedicated thread to the war.
How long will it last and what will be the probable outcome?
Yeah, cool. Get back to us in three weeks when the strait is opened and your Hot Pockets pummel in price, lmao. And who do you think Trump gets his information from? They said Iran posed no threat. Like in the past, he believed another country's leader over his own intelligence experts (for whatever ep-reason).Just like here - all his real military veterans told him that if he
Yikes! The Iranian propaganda has gotten to you.
It’s estimated that Iran can last only up to three weeks more given the current blockade. Probably closer to 12 days. The IRGC is very concerned that a protest by the people is imminent.
You all want to continue saying the US is losing the war?
I think people are saying it because they believe it to be true. If these were two countries of equal size and equal military resources then one could state easily that the US is winning.
But, when you are the most powerful country in the world, and you have pounded the crap out of another country (to the point where the other country has no airforce or navy), and that other country is standing you up for peace talks, you are probably not winning. .
Trump has obviously decided that he can't (1) leave, or (2) stop the ceasefire, or (3) increase pressure on Iran to surrender to US demands through more elevated and destructive attacks, or (4) get the straight open with or without the help of allies.
And he is "winning?"
UAE leaving OPEC I've been traveling so haven't seen any analysis. Thoughts?
The important thing to the US is only the petrodollar, and UEA went to Washington to work out swap lines before they left so probably it's not a big deal except that opec may continue to fall apart and current analysis cannot parse the outcome of that.

exactly the united states cant come out and say it. but its attack on Venezuela and iran is all for oil hegemony and to weaken china and its working. They have gotten multiple oil producing country's in line and in our sphere of influence. Thanks iran for helping out and bombing the uea
Just going to mention that the UAE is the United Arab Emirates (where a friend of mine was getting strafed by Iranian drones and missiles a few weeks ago) and UEA is the University of East Anglia in Norwich, Norfolk, England. Bit different.
Iran’s exact nuclear capabilities and their ability to threaten the continental US is debatable. Whether or not the US needed to attack Iran at this moment is debatable. However, saying Iran is not a threat (to the US I’m assuming) is idiotic and obviously no security or military experts said such a thing.
Iran’s threat to the US comes from waging slow and constant asymmetrical warfare using various methods ie cybercrime, funding terrorism and regional proxies who harass our allies and interests, etc. and obviously any limitations to their nuclear programs are simply temporary measures to avoid scrutiny. No one is confused about Iran’s nuclear program’s real purpose.

That's an old school take when the US was a major importer.
It's all about Semiconductor dominance now.

well when it comes to nuclear weapons in the hands of terrorist religious fanatics who threatened to destroy their neighbor. you don't have time for a nice debate. you have to act better to be wrong then nuked

I agree that Iran and the freedom loving people of the world should destroy Israel. but Iran is far more moral than the rest of us and follows the Islamic way of war.

Were you expecting me to work that into my OPEC analysis or you just want to talk about semiconductors.
The US is a net exporter of crude oil, but we have the wrong kind that we can't process in our plants so we export that and import the light sweet dank ass crude or whatever the ****.
If you have ideas on breaking the lithography and manufacturing monopoly of TSMC and ASML I'm all ears.

By your logic Germany was "winning" in the spring of 1945.
What’s your evidence that the Islamic way of war is more moral given they genocided all non-Abrahamics and took sex slaves?
I don't think victor ever answered about being or converting to islam but his whole pattern of posting is very weird.
Somewhere in between ''gotcha'' and straight up promoting, which doesn't really fit with his supposedly marxists influences.
I imagine there is little sense to make of his ramblings but still, this makes no sense.

I have explained it many times. its quite simple. Shia Islam (with an assist from Hamas) is now the vanguard of anti-Imperialism and righteousness in the world.
what did Marxist China do to stop the live streamed genocide committed by the Jewish state for fun and profit? they continued trade with Israel. what did China do to help Venezuela, Iran, or Cuba? some, but not nearly enough.
I am not converting to Islam obv. and checkrais's accusations about Islam are obv bullshit and only morons or Islamaphobes believe them.

Interesting take.
No mention of russia?
It really seems you are throwing yourself at the most recent discovery you made and completely misinterpret/amplify the signals.
Who knows what you'll say in a few months/years.
why would I mention Russia? I dont like Russia. although, they did run the murderous US blockade on Cuba so that was noteworthy.
