    Look at the liberals living in denial. When you take out the leadership of a military, decimate it's weapons, obliterate their defense industrial complex (blast furnaces, foundries, aluminum works, iron works, etc), and deprive them of developing a nuclear bomb (the mission), then it's a clear win. Vessels are starting to flow again in the Strait of Hormuz. With the mission completed, Trump showed grace and mercy to the helpless Iranian people by stopping the overwhelming destruction of their country.

    Liberals simply see an alternative reality. They are wishcasting an Iranian win -- which is super sad because the Iranian regime (what's left of them) are filthy, lying dogs. At their core, they are cowardly and dishonest. The world is a better place with the Islamic theocracy never being able to access nuclear weapons. And Trump stepped up to ensure this is the case. Presidents before him did not have the courage or leadership capabilities to do so


    GOOD DAY

    OH joy, strait fees for 3 weeks! they've truly made it now and have a clear path to prosperity ahead while being isolated from the international community! While every gulf country wants their islamist hardliners completely obliterated!

    Their little tactics stop the second the Americans and Israeli's leave - something Trump has control over.

    Hahaha being isolated from the international community? My dude lay off the crack pipe. You have countries from all over the world cutting deals with them. Malaysia, France, Australia, India, Japan, Pakistan just to name a few. The only country in the world that's isolated is America right now. Italy, UK, France, Spain, India are all refusing to allow us ships to use their base.

    It's so funny how yall think your MAGA propaganda works on us non cultists. Iran is going is control the strait of hormuz permanently cuz no country has the will power to send tens of thousands of troops to keep control over strait.

    Clueless cultist

    Thanks Trump voters!!!

    We Called Out the Pentagon for Undercounting U.S. Casualties in Iran. They Keep Doing It.
    After we exposed what one source called a “casualty cover-up,” the Pentagon offered another lowball count.

    You are wrong. Vessels have begun to move. Proof below. You falsely limited your response to oil tankers, which is not the only ship that passes through Hormuz. That’s where you whiffed. But soon those will start passing as well.

    If you had a shred of dignity you would apologize. My analysis of your intellect is not flattering. Low IQ, emotional, rushes to judgement, misses the fine details, and remains perpetually frustrated. Your admitted struggles with body odor only compound the situation.

    You conflating the 2 and pretending Trump and Hitler belong in the same sentence makes you lose all credibility. It also shows youre overly emotional and not a capable adult.

    I went to the park and hit some baseballs today. That makes me Shohei Ohtani if I scream it loud enough, I guess.

    Hey dumbass my tweet literally said dry cargo ships did pass but less than 10 in total passed compared to 150+ daily before the war. You claimed the strait of hormuz was open when that's not the reality. Your own article talks about how ships are still weary about passing and overwhelming of them are waiting.

    I'd never apologize to a low iq propagandist like yourself. You spew nothing but lies and propaganda on these forums.

    It's the GCC that would in no way allow this to go on. It would speed up their incentives to build pipelines across the peninsula to avoid the Gulf, with MBS has already spoken of the need for before the attack. Every source indicates Iran knows they won't get the money nor is it feasible for ships passing through to do it beyond this month.

    It's just something for the media to feed emotional jackrabbits like yourself.

    Iran has nothing to lose and doesn't care about the prosperity of it's own people so it has no issues with short term self sabotage. But the countries with actual futures won't allow it, nor will the concept of a toll go on beyond tihs month.



    It's getting kind of old - you whining like a child and making up stories while every gulf leader says the exact opposite.

    It's hilarious that you think the GCC have any power to stop Iran from controlling the strait. Their entire political calculation was buying hundreds of billions of dollars of US weapons in the expectation that America would rescue them. The Saudis couldn't even defeat the houthis in Yemen LOL and you think Iran is afraid of them?

    Trump won't send 50k solders to seize the coast or the islands nearby to wrestle control back from the Iranians. They'll bribe him like he's floated and he'll move on. The idea that Iran is somehow isolated is so delusional when their more powerful now than ever before



    The only thing this war will have accomplished is making Iran a superpower with the ability to choke off energy supplies at any moment.

    People need to realize that Trump has this thing where he always needs to be associated with whoever is considered the winner of any situation.

    So just don’t be surprised as it looks like Iran is winning and getting the best of him that he then continues to associate himself more and more as a personal friend to the Iranians he’s talking to. He does this all the time. Just look at Mamdani and how he went from calling him a terrorist to kissing his a$$ in the Oval Office because Mamdani was the clear winner.

    The best story that sums up Trump is Al Sharpton telling the story of how he used to go to boxing matches with Trump and for weeks leading up to it he always backed one fighter publicly, and when his guy got beat he ALWAYS came out of that fight saying that he backed the other fighter and acted as though he was the guys agent and promoter.

    Trump is going to essentially turn on the United States in the middle of a war with an adversary and do things in the interest of Iran just because they are winning. You think I’m kidding or just have TDS…. Just wait. Come back to this post later.

    That last line is Trump's mentality in a nutshell. There's a reason he and Hegseth changed the name of Secretary of Defense to Secretary of War. It's not about having a strong military to defend and protect our country anymore. It's more about what Trump envisions as conquests. He wants to go around the world taking what he wants or controlling what he wants, for either a share of the oil and minerals, or simply taking the land completely. To him, these conquests (aka warmongering) are his new thing, and use his military to do it. I still laugh that this deranged fool thinks he deserves a Peace Prize.

    If the bet is come May 1st American and American allied tankers will be passing through and utilizing the Straight without any sort of duty/fee greater than whatever existed prior to the war starting then I'll take that bet.

    Vance will be leading the negotiations, which is one of the things Iran asked for a few weeks ago. I get why they don’t want to talk to the other two idiots. Vance is probably a 1% improvement over them. SoS is in title only.

    Vance will lead the negotiations on the U.S. side during this weekend’s talks in Islamabad.

    The U.S. Is Pushing Southeast Asia Toward China. The Iran War Made It Worse.

    A new survey of Southeast Asian opinion leaders shows they prefer China to the United States as a partner, while the region’s biggest geopolitical concern is U.S. global leadership.

    In a new development not shown in prior ISEAS surveys, more than half of respondents now said that U.S. global leadership had become their biggest geopolitical concern. This displaced China’s “aggressive behavior in the South China Sea,” which had been the region’s top concern in 2025. (“New U.S. leadership” was the third-highest concern among respondents last year.)


    “This perception demonstrates regional anxiety about inconsistencies in policy and the credibility of long-term commitments under Trump’s leadership,” the survey reported. Even in Singapore, a longtime U.S. partner, this fear was so pronounced that more than three-quarters of Singaporean respondents listed concern about U.S. leadership as their biggest worry. Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand—a country with close trading ties, a U.S. partner, and a treaty ally, respectively—now also have massive concerns about U.S. economic influence in the region.

    Still waiting for someone to explain to me how we "won" when the following realities exist on the ground:

    1) The Iranian regime has not changed

    2) Iran controls the Strait

    3) Iran has made zero concessions regarding its nuclear capabilities

    If I'm Trump of course I'm throwing JD into the path of this oncoming train. Vance is effectively just a stooge getting as many albatrosses as possible hung around his neck at this point. Don't be surprised if this accelerates after the midterms.
