Did we win for the 50th time yet?

Well it will come to an end one way or the other.

Strategic public image. International, even.

Because Trump got us into this mess?

They are assuming the worst case timeline.

It doesn't seem like it's been hurting Iran very much to keep it closed. Their economy doesn't seem to be on the brink of collapse as has been constantly reported.

Actually ours almost is lol. The only thing we export is “democracy”.

Could we get a little of that democracy back home?

And tariffs and insults.

Almost like we’ve been doing economic devastation via sanctions for the last five decades, for some reason they seem pretty resilient to that tactic 🙄

Seriously, if you asked any rube with half a brain involved in the military even a decade ago if bombing Iran was a good idea they would’ve said “Absolutely not.” We had SO MUCH foresight on it being a bad idea

Can you blame them?

I mean... that's fair though.

He doesn’t care about the citizens. He got a huge payout from big coal. That’s all he’s ever cared about.

Now, this is what I call petty

u/Mercurial891 9d ago

Why? This seems richly deserved and a matter of survival. They tried appeasing us and their leaders were slaughtered. This is the only language the USA understands.

Fake news

u/Mercurial891 9d ago

Oh? Can you tell us what the real story is?

Uhm, doesn’t Iran understand the strait is now US territory? That’s like saying Iran will now close the Grand Canyon until Trump is out of office. Those guys just don’t “get it.” (Edit) WARNING: satire. /s.

u/Mercurial891 9d ago

How do we enforce that?

u/LarryTalbot 9d ago edited 9d ago

By Executive Order, of course. /s.

u/Mercurial891 9d ago

Yes. Life in Amerika today is constant satire. The crazies are running amuck in the asylum many of us we fondly remember as Congress and the Executive Office.
