I still think that the Islamic Republic is inept, but that is just my opinion. We need a true nationalist government.

They might very well be playing mind games to bring Iran to negotiation table OR they might be planning a shock-n-awe operation like they did in Iraq. Let's see.I could be reading it wrong but it looks like various Trump administration officials are coming out with statements that make it seem like they are backing away from the corner they put themselves in.
Iran called their bluff.
it seems the US knows very well it is unable to destroy Iran's nuclear infrastructure and it is bluffing to force IRI to negotiate
They need boots on da ground to conquer Irani's, but thats just too much work and money bhai......How many Super sonic Missiles has Iran mass produced , for past 6 months ? Since last firing on Israel ? Do you think they have been just sitting around twiddling their fingers like Syrian Head of state
They were not sitting on their asses all that time since a seize fire between Iran and Israel.
There is always calm before the storm
Israel keeps destroying it's reputation world wide with Genocidal work they are doing , fully exposed all over the world , Iran has already won
the battle
How many Nations voted in favor of Palestine as free state , almost 95% of world did
Same applies to Iran and The general stated as much in the same hearing. The zio empire is in no position to launch a full scale war against Yemen, let alone Iran. To invade Iran an adversary force will need a minimum of a million men who willing, not only to kill but, to also risk their lives. Compare with the Russian SMO in Ukraine.![]()

US not ready to fight China – Trump’s pick for top general

The US military would be unprepared for a protracted war with China due to shortcomings in the defense industrial base, President Donald Trump’s pick to lead the Joint Chiefs of Staff has said.
In his written testimony to the Senate Armed Services Committee on Tuesday – part of the confirmation process – retired Lieutenant General John Caine stressed that rivalry with China remains one of the most pressing issues facing the US.
”The threat posed by China to American interests in the Indo-Pacific is real and growing. The US needs to work with allies and partners to deter China’s aggression in this region,” he claimed.
He warned, however, that the US is not currently in a position to respond to the perceived threat. “Unfortunately, at this critical moment, the Joint Force is contending with an acquisition process and defense industrial base that are not optimized for protracted conflict. The US does not have the throughput, responsiveness, or agility needed to deter our adversaries,” Caine said.

Identifying the Indo-Pacific as a key theater for the US, the general remarked that the Chinese military “has made significant military improvements to include adjusting its military structures, fielding modern indigenous systems,” adding that “numerically, China has the largest navy in the world.”
He added, however, that Beijing “still has deficiencies in commander proficiency, long-distance logistics, urban warfare, and… modern warfare experience writ large.”
Caine also addressed the broader geopolitical landscape, arguing that while China, Russia, and North Korea are engaged in limited cooperation, “these countries are not acting as a bloc, nor are they trending toward a NATO-style alliance.”
The US and China are at odds over a number of issues, with tensions especially high over the self-governed island of Taiwan. Chinese leader Xi Jinping has said that while Beijing would prefer “a peaceful reunification” with what it considers a breakaway province, it has not ruled out the use of force to accomplish this.
Beijing has accused Washington of being “obsessed with suppressing China,” warning that this will only hurt the US.
Soviet Marshal Ogarkov knew about this American capability before the outbreak of the Gulf War, because he himself was an enthusiast and was the head of GenStab when the USSR was in the process of modernization and reshaping, highlighting Soviet capabilities that the Americans copied and ended up using in the Gulf War, such as modern C4I processes, use of guided munitions, among others.Soviet Marshal Ogarkov cautioned that the American military capability has evolved after the Vietnam War but other Soviet analysts did not share his view. Most of the analysts of the time understood American military capability through the lens of the Vietnam War. Then Pakistani COAS Gen. Mirza Aslam Beg also assumed that the Iraqi Army will prevail. Good analysis and projections can provide the basis to avoid geopolitical miscalculations but such homework is not the forte of every setup or regime.
