      It’s says that Iran really hasn’t lost much. In my opinion their water situation is the key. I don’t even think President Trump will strike desalination plants.

      With this admin any hint of failure or weakness must be covered up. Makes you wonder what other, bigger failures they’re getting away with that hasn’t been leaked yet.

    3. More anonymously sources documents that nobody gets to see, but agrees with the MSMs prejudices?

      Color me skeptical.

      Well of course they’ll survive a blockade, they’ve already been sanctioned for years; their economy’s already adapted to it. And it’s not like they’re about to run out of oil like Cuba anytime soon either…

      So the administration lied. Again. Then said it was treasonous to report that the war, which isn’t a war, was going badly. Except it is a war, and it is going badly, just like everyone expected and thought. Because the real treason is being committed within the White House.

    6. Not exactly a suprise, we all figured Iran was doing much better than trump says because trump lies about literally everything to make it sound better for him.

      If trump says something is the best, is going well, is beautiful, is already happening, a done deal, a win etc…..it very definitely isn’t.

      That added to the released pictures internationally about just how bad the US was hit, it doesn’t look like we are losing the war. We are.

      CIA’s optimistic assessment is that Iran has 75% of launchers left and 70% of missiles left and trump went on live tv and lied that they only have 18-19% left. Lmaooo

    9. You mean to say the President is a lying son of a bitch? We’ve all known that for quite a while.

      Trump has been out played out thought in every sense of the word with Iran, he has no idea how to get out of this mess he has created, this administration has no idea what they are doing, Trump just lies and lies, I feel sorry for the sane people in the USA that didn’t vote for this idiot and now have to suffer the consequences for the ones that did, Trump has led America down a path of making it look like fools in the rest of the worlds eyes, Trump has done huge damage to the country’s image overseas, petty little corrupt Trump.

    11. >”*The leadership has gotten more radical, determined and increasingly confident they can outlast U.S. political will and sustain domestic repression to check any resistance*”

      Of course they can outlast US political will. Trump is already looking for any face-saving way to back out of this quagmire.

      And with mid-terms coming up, there’s no way Trump can keep fighting such an unpopular and unnecessary war for much longer.

      We already knew Donald has been lying to us. Hopefully MAGA realizes the extent of his lies.

      Do we believe the CIA now? Is it a fake report so that it justifies more attacks?

    14. Wait…the President lied about something to make a situation look better than it actually is?

      Shocked! Shocked, I say…

      Serious question – given the details in this article, and assuming they’re mostly true, how long before Trump gives up the facade of “winning” and just goes all in on a ground invasion? Any takers for a nuke? A full scale retreat?

      No way we just continue to lie-fest for the next six months without some sort of escalation, right?

      Orange Nero lied?!?! Let’s all show our ‘shocked’ faces again.

      In other news, water is still wet and my fellow Conservatives have nothing left of their spine to stand with. Anyone who is truly conservative should have seen Trump as an existential threat to their beliefs since 2016.

      Attack, attack, attack
      Admit nothing, deny everything
      Always claim victory and never admit defeat

      How can they have 75% left when Trump simps spent days arguing that the objective was to destroy Irans military capability and the objective was reached?

      Why are they so utterly spineless that they lap up being lied to constantly.

      Seems like you’d want to carefully evaluate all this *before* you start a war, but what do I know
