So, NaMBLA, let's get this straight.

You think UAE paying Danegeld to Iran is a symptom of me being soft.

Surely it's exactly what I warned of? You started a conflict, screwed your allies, demonstrated you can't defend them, and now they are defecting.

I thought you said you were kicking ass?

Oh look, so it seems the US has got a worse deal than it had on the table before the war.

NaMBLA wins again.

“I hereby fully authorize (...) the immediate removal of the United States Naval blockade. Ships of the World, start your engines. Let the oil flow!”

All thats happened so far is that the US is withdrawing its troops? Salsa Sunday. Man, this guy is unhealthily obssessed with mexican food

What are you talking about? Trump is getting the nuclear dust at some point in the future, and Iran has pinky sworn to never develop nuclear weapons.

That's a huge victory!

The deal seems to codify the same thing the US, Russia and Canada are doing in the arctic. No transit tariffs, of course not. That would be against UNCLOS that at least Canada has signed. But there are service fees as everyone considers the arctic passages to be internal waters along the same lines Iran is arguing. So yay! Service fees. Not tariffs, silly. We are calling it something different, so it is different.

I actually prefer premortems to post mortems. The US screwed up. Sure, leadership in Iran died, but I think the people who stepped up in their place are not completely unhappy about that. They did get to step up after all. Amazing that a country with 90 million people has leadership to spare.

Oh my god this is hilarious.

An utter calamity, but still hilarious.

All you fuckers saying JCPOA was terrible, what the fuck do you call facilitating a $300m fund, removing sanctions, normalising diplomatic relations, military drawdown from the US's regional bases and permitting them to charge for straits transit; all in exchange for Iran merely committing to its existing obligations under the NPT.

There's not even an obligation to reimplement the enhanced safeguards.

Oh yeah NaMBLA - the US really kicked arse. I'm so glad it's Trump not Harris in the oval office.

"what the fuck do you call"

I call it utterly retarded. This easily makes trump the worst or amongst the worst wartime presidents ever. The leaders in Vietnam were pretty bad. Lincoln fucked up massively but at least he won.

I also call that sebbing it up. That's exactly what you would have done. And harris too.

Harris would actually have done even less. At least trump kicked ass for a month before sebbing.

No NaMBLA, I would have simply maintained JCPOA.

Under that, you had military infrastructure, options to snap back sanctions, intentional support, no HEU and very limited enrichment and ability to monitor.

Now, you have non of that. Because you basically have insecurity issues thinking that is not an acceptably masculine solution to the problem.

Pretty much everything about you is explainable by your lack of self confidence and overcompensation.

It's why you guys are obsessed with trans issues, why you are obsessed with cuck, interracial sex etc.

NaMBLA:

As opposed to starting a conflict you had no idea how to actually translate into tangible outcomes; blow though most of your stocks of munitions essentially disarming yourself, lose most of your bases in the region, then agree to compensate Iran, remove all sanctions... for less guardrails than JCPOA got?

And I'm the fucking apeaser?

I don't know NaMBLA - maybe you are right. Why not have another go and then sign over Alaska to Iran. That will show them how manly you are.

Thing is, utterly retarded as Trump is, he's not as dumb as you. You'd have kept on going until you ran out of munitions with a MEF stranded on Kharg getting slaughtered by FPVs and artillery.

Trump, fool that he is, managed to realise he'd fucked up badly. You, on the other hand, still haven't figured it out and never will.

Thicker than Trump is an achievement.

Hey Lying Pedophile - many humans aspire to growing into something respectable in adulthood - admirable even. What made you choose a path that you know beyond a shadow of a doubt is despised as the coward's way of shifting blame and harming innocent people to pay for all your unintelligence and cruelty towards members of your own species?

* Sorry, by what all humankind means by "cruelty", your mentally ill cult has rebranded "strength".
To crush a small puppy beneath the tires of at SUV is "strength" in your world.

Hard to say. Trump would have gone for the nuclear option without adults in the room. Who knows what dummy would have done with adults in the room and better information about actual US capabilities.

I think Trump is actually shit scared of nukes. Blase about threats, sure, but a fair few things he's said over the years make me wonder if it's like Reagan where something cut through (in regeans case, a movie) where it clicked.

He's of the right generation for that to have been instilled, unlike NaMBLA.

Could be wrong.

25km isn't beyond the range of artillery. Maybe FPV drones if they aren't doing the repeater stuff Russia and Ukraine are doing.

"25km"

No part of kharg island is within 25km of the mainland.

Plus they can't see their targets even at 25km. Marine entrenchments don't show up on Google maps, unlike Saudi oil refineries.

And even if Iran wanted to move in artillery to fire blind at 40km... the US would tear a division of artillery to shreds in an hour. Not to mention all the supply vehicles... this would be a logistical effort in the face of the enemy that no country on earth except maybe China could even contemplate. This is mechanized large scale warfare... What the US dominates at to a level unheard of in almost the entire history of war. It would be medina ridge and the highway of death all over again.

Lol Neville the master strategist.

Bandar ganaveh is a city of 100k people with decent road access 45 to 50km from kharg island. This is beyond the range of 152mm tubes and way beyond the range of remote controlled drones. Irans most obvious move would be to fire grads at maximum possible range from within the city, using the standard muslim tactic of human shields, resupplying the force disguised as food trucks and ambulances, hamas/Hezbollah style.

Such limited and distant fire(and obviously we would still bomb many of those vehicles even inside the city) would have no chance of significantly disrupting a marine regiment. It barely harms jewish civilians.

I wonder if Trump, facing the reality that plan A pushed by Israel was not going to work, did some Trump maths on where the money is going to be, and is now working on becoming an Iranian friend.

The recent tensions between Israel and US on this front is a bit surprising, and Trump pivoting to profiteering off better long term relations with Iran would not surprise me one bit.

All a bunch of guessing of course, but knowing the flippancy of the Trump admin and lust for money, it makes me wonder.

Lol.

"logistical effort in the face of the enemy that no country on earth except maybe China could even contemplate."

How much of your precision munitions have you used up already?

"This is mechanized large scale warfare"

Yeah, which is how Russia's invasion of Ukraine started out. If only the Iranians had some way of learning from that conflict.


"What the US dominates at to a level unheard of in almost the entire history of war"

Everyone who has tried to use that doctrine in the current age of drone centric warfare gets their arses handed to them; including that US in war games against Ukrainian forces.

It's like cavalry going into ww1.

"It would be medina ridge and the highway of death all over again."

It really wouldn't. You've used half your stocks of standoff munitions trying to eliminate Iranian air defence, and they shot down one of your helicopters on the other side of the gulf last week.

You aren't going to be doing CAS over Iran.


"45 to 50km from kharg island."

Both Russia and Ukraine have been using fixed wing drones to deliver gov quad and hex FPVs and then operate through relayed signals at that range.

Russia uses Iranian drones as the delivery vehicle. It's highly likely they are collaborating on the technology.

But sure, go pull a Putin and double down on your failed special military operation. It's not a war! We will topple the regime in a week! Etc.
