@benshapiro

I expected the Iran war to be shorter, and have argued consistently that it should be shortened through more concerted action, not foolish MOUs

"more concerted action" -- you really have to love the gall of this little nigga. My understanding is that he basically lives full time in a heavily jewwwwiiisssshhhh enclave in Florida despite his company being based in Nashville. What a faggot.

The only way to end this and get what Americans really want is a nuclear strike and a ground invasion. That would really make the goyim happy here.

It'd be fine if they had any notion of what happens after the bombing campaign. How to avoid Iraq debacle 2.0 has been a topic of some note in the DoD over the last two years

There's only two options:

1) lose the war. Cut bait. Iran wins unilaterally. We go back to our lives like nothing happened.

2) listen to Jews. Trillions in debt increases, thousands of Americans die, no clear win condition other than Iran failed state

Your call

I'd just like to point out that this was all completely needless and these same objectives could have been and were being achieved to an acceptable level with a little time and finesse, and I have said so every step of the way

If you read the tea leaves, 1) is what the administration wanted. The MOU. Trump begged Iran for a deal in which Iran got everything. Trump knows it's a cluster. He knows it's tarnishing his legacy. He knows midterms are on the line. He knows oil shock, inflation, and interest rates are on the line.

We know Ben wants 2). Bibi, Bari, Israel wants 2). They wanted 2 from the beginning. Trump said OK I'll half ass it. And we'll probably win quick and easy. We didn't. And now 1) is impossible because Israel won't behave. They're pushing 2) from the beginning. This is their agenda and they'll pulling us headlong into it. The tail wags the dog.

Congress isn't going to fund the war so it'll sputter out. A real war on Iran would cost trillions and involve hundreds of thousands of troops.

Cr

I will be very surprised if Israel doesn't rake us over the coals until we do what they want. Congress is on the take. No one wants to appear anti Israel. GOP would do it right now. And half the Dems. They just need an excuse. If you're Israel your move is a burning of the Reichstag moment. If Iran kills enough Americans it will trigger the ground invasion, unrestricted warfare, everything on the table. It's coming soon.

CR, who in the fuck would give a fuck about "losing" this war? Just "anyways, gotta go!" and leave europe with $10/gal gas (incl. the Strait of Hormuz / Iran Infrastructure Reconstruction tax).

Seriously after the US shale revolution there is NO reason for us to be dicking around in the middle east. Or, to quote a brief xo forcememe, no non-israel based reason.
