US Perspective on the Iran - Israel / US War

[Shags202]

Bottom line is over 10M b/d are making it through the southern passage while Iranian exports are zero and its economy cratering.

Qatars energy woes are a strategic boon for the US. An Bab el Mandab is primarily a Saudi/Euro problem.

You have no argument to make. Iran played its last card and lost.

I made several arguments that were clear and rational I even spaced everything out dude for a country that probably has redirected a few thousand ships by now since the start of the war taken out dozens of tankers themselves blew up multiple sites all over the Middle East if we want to call this winning be my guest funny thing is even in the American perspective your voice is the minority….neither straits were Americas problem before all of this Hormuz shipping lanes has it now become a US problem why….i honestly believe your a guy smarter than most but you pretending everything is rosy is boring if trump told you the earth is flat would you believe it

And yet gas is now going up up up diesel up up up cost of living is going up up up and we are still bragging about a dozen or so ships instead of the previous 140 that were traveling before this war.

Qatar ability to produce natural gas for the world has seemingly halted

Saudis are being crippled fairly easily

Quarter of a billion to half a billion to protect these ships…..yes yes Arabs will invest in American weapons that cost more than just making amends as the aggressor…..weapons offensive or defensive that won’t be coming any time soon but they will pay in advance for those weapons like suckers

Houthis have come up triumphant in Yemen…..guess who helped them there but everything is rosy

Man I agree Hezbollah is very quiet reminds you when they went quiet before they started banging up the idf



And yet we brag about a dozen ships….okay Trump Junior

Better to admit your wrong or just say hey mission accomplished we are packing up and going back home where we belong and where we should’ve invested the money spent on an idiotic war on Americans….i heard Trump is giving everyone 5000 if republicans win the election weird why not just give it to them now….oh wait he’s lying like he lies about everything else

This is you:

28 February 2026: US is doomed. The world is finished. Iran has won.
28 March 2026: US is doomed. The world is finished. Iran has won.
28 April 2026: US is doomed. The world is finished. Iran has won.
28 May 2026: US is doomed. The world is finished. Iran has won.
28 June 2026: US is doomed. The world is finished. Iran has won.
28 July 2026: US is doomed. The world is finished. Iran has won.
28 August 2026: US is doomed. The world is finished. Iran has won.
28 September 2026: ...

Meanwhile, everyone around me is still doing exactly the same things they were doing on 27 February 2026. If anything, things have actually got better.

Some of my relatives have got married, and more people have been recruited into my team.

Iranians are still living comfortably in the West while cheering on the IRGC fanatics at the same time.

So, after all these predictions of doom and the imminent Iranian victory, what has actually changed?

Eeeemm I don’t think I’m one of those guys that said America is doomed I’m a realist I don’t recall saying Iran will become victorious but they are not losing if they were they would be waving that white flag over half a year ago like some predicted
