What a loser of a president

Worst-case scenario for world economy, actually. The US was hoping for a quick Venezuela-style success, but Iran looks like it’s going to be a lot tougher.

This is about the worst possible result the USA acheived from their initial invasion. Son taken dads place, Army and Government in agreement. Iran digging their heels in for the long haul and ramping up economic disruption. And they won’t negotiate with the USA because Trump attacked them during diplomatic negotiations, while also lying to them. And lets not forget that day 1 school bombing, that won’t help sway the people, will it.

A long war means no Epstein news. Trump considers this pure gold.

It’s a real shame that there wasn’t a previous Iran – Iraq war that lasted 8 years and cost around 500,000 lives that we could have looked back on to see how they might react to being attacked and invaded. Some sort of historical context like that would’ve been super helpful here.

Trump just started a war that could cost the world trillions of dollars.

A large portion of Iranians are living in poverty and dealing with rampant inflation. Exactly what is the threat?

Well they probably know any deal made with the US is worth less than used toilet paper and that there is no scenario where Israel accepts anything short of complete submission so their only real option is to bleed the global economy until mounting pressure forces the US and Israel into amenable terms. Frankly I don’t see a scenario where this happens because a long and hectic war with Iran will give Trump more ammunition to declare nation emergencies and mess with elections.

It’s been a little more than a week. Regardless of how you feel about the political implications, it seems a bit early to judge the success or failure of any military objectives.

The problem with the IRGC is that they assume that the Americans do not know their strategy. I am 100% sure at this point that the Americans plan to occupy Hormozgan Province as well as Kharg Island.
Occupation of the former will largely end all Iranian attacks on shipping at the strait. Occupation of the latter will strangle the IRGC’s economic lifeline as that Island handles like 95% of Iran’s crude exports

The only thing this regime has left is bluster, the losses they’ve incurred already are in the hundreds of billions. They’ve been set back decades militarily. With no hope of even reclaiming their skies ever again, they’ll be sitting ducks for Israeli bombs, the same conditions as Syria and the rest of the formerly hostile region have to suffer. You cannot govern a nation and maintain stability under these conditions.

This isn’t dissimilar to Ukraine in that a) can’t trust negotiations and b) so much destruction it’s just a matter of degrees and the population generally gets more and more entrenched the more they’re murdered from above
Just sad…poor people of these countries just want to have a livelihood and raise their kids, like anyone would

We may already deploying ground troops from what it seems like. I work for a company that have a lot of military servicemen canceling services for being deployed in the next few days.

US spent 20 years in a a much less organized country known as Afghanistan. The same fundamentalists took over within a day of the US leaving.

Cool, I was getting tired of how awesome the economy was already anyway. I’ve been saying, “Someone should make this worse and also blow up children somewhere that I’m not!” and there was President Trump answering my prayers.

This is pretty much what happened to Iraq after Desert Storm. Sanctioned, isolated, and bombed periodically. The people never rose up because they were still repressed, the same as they were prior to the war, and there was no alternative coherent alternative.
The U.S. expects to bomb a country and then there to be popular support for the country doing the bombing? On what planet?
They’ve learned literally nothing from Cuba, Vietnam, Iran itself dating back to the 70’s, Iraq, Afghanistan. And on and on.

Sorry, is the IRGC seriously saying that Iran isn’t currently experiencing “economic pain”?

Pretty much as long as Iran controls it coast line along the seas and straight, insurance for ships remain sky high due to drone danger. The US will either have to maintain a naval picket line, which in the long term will inevitably lead to a ship getting hit by an air or sea drone and cost the US a ridiculous sum of money and hinder our ability to counter China, or the US will have to invade and either take control of the country or at least enough of its coast line to host air defense systems.

We’re following Putin’s lead for some reason. We now bomb schools and hospitals. We’ll slowly get our asses kicked as Iran fights an asymmetric war. Trillions later Tramp will claim some sort of victory and start chasing the next squirrel.
HelloFellowKidlings on
Anyone who thought we would just roll in there and be out in time for dinner really isn’t paying attention. This is exactly why Trump was always so paranoid about other presidents starting war with them, he knew he wanted it to be his move to be able to declare emergency powers.

They probably don’t know the size of western Europe, either.
Good luck with regime change there, Donnie.

Well they don’t have to do anything but not surrender. The US and Israel are already running out of bombs. This bombing is also a great excuse to do whatever the fuck they want now.
They know from history that the US will eventually give up. They know Israel can’t invade across two or three countries. So, really, all the iranians have to do is keep saying “no.”

70% – 90% of the total food for the GCC goes through the Strait of Hormuz. This is going to begin a humanitarian crisis on top of the oil shock to the economy. Governments around the region will begin to break down the longer this goes on.
