    Imagine if Iran had allied with ISIS, killed the US President and bombed several US schools, then a couple of weeks later Iran’s leader goes “anyway, we are winding down this war. It is someone else’s problem now.”

    That’s not how war works.

    They can start all the wars they want, tell me aliens exist, send out checks, it doesn’t matter. I’ll never shut the fuck up about Epstein and these pedos.

    Retreating. The word he is looking for is ‘retreat’. Also known sometimes as ‘surrender’.

    Even if the US retreats I hope Iran keeps that strait closed and eventually collapses all those gulf pedo-slave states.

    There has to be a price for collaborating with Americans and Israelis. If you want oil and be a US ally then you’ll have to rely on the US to share it’s own oil with you.

        Well closed in the sense that it’s strictly controlled. Iran can rebuild by charging obscene amounts for the pleasure of trading in it’s gulf.

      It would be in Iran’s interest to evict the United States from the gulf permanently; the punishment the Iranians must inflict should be severe enough that the US and Israel never again try to initiate an attack like this.

      Thing is, can Iran understand this? In the past, their reaction against American aggression has been pretty tepid. That been said, the new Ayatollah has basically seen his family be decimated in a couple of weeks, so his response may be different this time around.

        Yes, Iran understands this. Iran is in full, single-minded cancer removal mode. You beat cancer or you die.

    Yeah that’s why nobody wanted to touch this mess with a 10 ft pole.

    TACO-in-chief! As well as being the best friend of the pedophile Epstein. Seems Operation Epstein Fury is a failure.
