This would end Iran economically

they can and have (during iraq-iran)shifted the role of kharg to other islands . this is just handing them the american deaths they want on a platter

WAR IS A RACKET
BY SMEDLEY D. BUTLER


This short anti-war pamphlet was written by a Major General in the Marines who was an American military hero, but became disillusioned with the profiteering, propaganda, and injustice of the military-industrial and intelligence-foreign policy establishments , and came to oppose American involvement in foreign wars designed to benefit financial and industrial interests.

Someone is deleting my posts on the economic warfare aspect of this conflict which will end up doing more damage than all the bombs and missiles combined.

Been trying to show on this forum for a year and a half now where this is headed, but can't put it all together when my posts are being deleted.

The Iranians are the third most capable US adversary after China and Russia. Weakening them to this degree is a major strategic victory.

so you beat up your 3rd biggest threat only to give a huge win to your 2nd? is that the big plan?

the Russian war machine was about to lose steam early this year now word is they are preparing for a major offensive.

Let it be, we have the right to know what American perspective of war is....
One sided chest thumping is overbearing.....we can draw our own conclusions .

And you think what you will get on PDF is the American perspective by the miniscule presence here?

When exaggeration becomes spamming, things need to be slowed down a bit.

If a post was deleted it was either off topic or violated forum rules.

That is the problem. Both sides are just trying to spin things their way, and the ones that are allowed are the ones supported by the management according to their own policies, which is only to be expected, and all very understandably so.

Trying to be fair only gets abuse and ridicule by both sides as they see it from their own points of view, please be forewarned.

Reports circulating on social media suggested that the US nuclear aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln had moved more than 1,000 km from Iranian shores after being targeted by Iranian drones.

A post shared by RT on X (formerly Twitter) cited “latest Chinese satellite intel” indicating the carrier “has now retreated to roughly 1,000 km from Iranian shores.” The post also said the Lincoln carrier group was “quivering in the lee of Port Salalah in Oman, in the north Arabian Sea.”
