Trump sagt, der Krieg gegen Iran könnte bald zu Ende sein.

Was it his voter base, who are worried about the price of gas?
Was it Putin, who is worried about his drone supply?

We will probably never know…..

So ya’ll just turned the regime into an even more radical and inhumane direction without much change other than killing an 87 year old man?

Has he asked the Iranians about it?

Regime change was only to find someone to pay Trump bribes.

They’ve been known to use misdirection fairly well surprisingly, I would not be shocked if somehow ground troops are in tomorrow

I thought it WASN’T a “war”? So the nonwar to affect regime change may end after a week, not weeks or months, having achieved its goal of, not regime change? Meanwhile the oil price spike fed grey market oil revenue to Russia.

Orange Caligula can dream on. This time he will feel the consequences of his actions. Unfortunately we all will. By involving the whole region (major oil producers) the Iranians have him cornered.

We are witnessing a start of a big recession, but on the plus side it will help accelerate the green transition.

“Mission Accomplished” – every stupid Republican Politician. Unbelievable that people voted for a man who is a trafficker in the Epstein Files

Iran’s ability to threaten the region (or America, for that matter) has never been contingent on its conventional armed forces. It’s primarily stuff like missiles and drones with a secondary emphasis on the support it provides to regional non-state actors, over whom it has varying levels of control. Whittling down Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis did a lot more to undermine Iran’s ability to threaten the region than downing their positively archaic air force, which was arguably not even a match for its immediate neighbors, and mining the straits is harder without their navy but not impossible.

This statement is also very, very dumb. Let’s assume for a moment everything in the claims about Iran’s capabilities are true. What’s Iran’s most sensible play here? To lean into it. To make it *look* like this assessment is correct. If they do that, Trump basically told them America will leave. The fastest way to end the bombing campaign and retain as many assets as they can is to play dead for a couple weeks and wait for America to sail home. From there they can then reevaluate and decide whether to resume operations or to lick their wounds and rebuild.

Basically, Trump didn’t learn his lesson about openly declaring your intention to end hostilities after the debacle with the Taliban. That time, he cut his negotiators off at the knees, got nothing for it, and the Taliban simply waited and prepared for an offensive the moment America was committed to the withdrawal. That turned out so badly the Republicans tried to pin Trump’s deal on Biden. But here he is, doing the exact same thing all over again.

Hope so 🙏

Simply pathetic.

So likely killed 175 schoolgirls, many civilians, claimed this was regime change, getting rid of their nuclear capability (even though definitely did that a few months ago) and a host of other nonsense.

Reality was it was costing $1bn a day, $3m to take out a $20k drone of which Iran has 40,000 of, negative stock market, sky high energy and Iran successfully dragged v in other Gulf countries and its fair to say this is one of the US’ greatest humiliations on the world stage.

It is now a country that does the bidding of Putin and Netanyahu with its most incompetent, cowardly President in its history. Just wow, what a laughing stock the US has unfortunately become.
