The U.S. military operation against Iran, which began on February 28, may already have cost the American economy more than $151 billion, although the Pentagon officially acknowledges expenses of only $37.5 billion. These conclusions were reached by The Telegraph after analyzing the direct and indirect consequences of the conflict.
According to the newspaper, if hostilities continue at the current pace, the total losses to the U.S. economy could reach $311 billion by the end of the year.
U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth previously said that the war had already cost the budget at least $37.5 billion, but experts believe this amount reflects only part of the real expenses.
Harvard University professor Linda Bilmes, who specializes in the economics of war, noted that the official estimate does not take into account long-term costs, including servicing the national debt, rising fuel prices, restoring military equipment, and the broader economic consequences for the country. In her view, the total cost of the conflict could eventually approach $1 trillion.

Higher steel output lifts Türkiye above Germany as global production slips amid weaker Chinese output

Anyways it looks more like empty words, vague promises, declarations (usual verbal diarrhea) from Trump. Too many different variables, conflicting interests, grudges and the vision of a mentally ill man-child will turn this "idea" into a failure.

$2-4b equipment losses is utter nonsense. they lost > 30 MQ-9s, which is $1b in itself.
plus all the radars and other aircraft losses (F-18s, F-15, F-35, E-3, etc), the number is significantly more than that.

IRGC propaganda doesn't work on the Americans, I am afraid.

I wonder what this war has cost Iran so far?
In April, Iranians were asking for $300 billion in reparations. Their domestic debt has sky-rocketed to over $100 billion according to IMF estimates, and I also heard somewhere that inflation has gone over 100%.
Armies usually don't survive for long when soldiers haven't been paid on time.

Israel will not interfere in Hamas’ disarmament: Hamas member to Al Jazeera
Ghazi Hammad, a member of the Palestinian group Hamas, tells Al Jazeera that the issue of disarmament is contingent upon Israel’s withdrawal from Gaza and the progress of reconstruction.“Israel will not interfere in the disarmament issue, and the national committee is the one that will carry out this task”, he said.
He said negotiations to reach a final agreement, “were tough and harsh” and that Hamas tried to reach the best possible formula that could be achieved.
“Hamas remains steadfast in its national goals, represented by preserving the rights of the Palestinian people,” he said.

There can never be peace in Palestine until the zion entity if eliminated. Everything else is just bullshit that will only harm the Palestinian people.
Israel's very existence is on Palestinian land and they will never accept Palestine, and it doesn't matter what the american pres says. Its useless garbage as we know zions cannot be trusted at all.

Personally I will take a one state one people deal let Israel annex it all but the only way to legitimize it is to grant all people in Palestine citizenship but Israel won’t they’re to afraid so they will attempt to keep the apartheid going until real legitimate leaders rise up in America who aren’t in the pockets of groups like aipac

50% of Chinese oil imports are from the PG. I think yous got no idea what you're saying that this percentage can be easily replaced now that Iran controls the SOH.
Do you understand anything? or do we hold your hand here mr Afghani?
