There's something humorous about them charging for safety and security when they are the ones lobbing the missiles. They are emboldened that's for sure.

Iran is in the best position not an impossible one. they could close the strait forcing us to use all our reserves. USA kicked the hornets nest because Israel told us to and we're getting stung.


I’m on the right, but understand that even my right wing politicians say false things to give them political cover.

We are a net exporter of oil. I’m sure there are some items (fertilizer or whatnot ) that flows through the Hormuz that we enjoy having, but to think there would be some catastrophe in the US is wrong.

Well George, you’re so friggin smart. What would you have done in Iran? Would you have sent in ground troops to take out the leadership or would you have just blown up everything including the innocent civilians. What would you have done George differently than what Trump did since you are a international political scholar.


There were lots of options beyond that. Screw the ceasefire that only the US obeyed, continue the blockade and capture their oil fleet outside of their waters. Bomb their energy facilities. For ground troops, let Saudi or UAE put their troops on the other side of the strait to open it up, why does it have to be ours?

Instead we went with give them $300bb to make them stop. Maybe $1 trillion would have been better, more control am I right??
quote:

I like the idea of U.S. and U.S. allies making private investments in Iran. $300 billion of private investment would basically give the U.S. and its allies major control and influence over Iran.


You were the kid that was bullied for lunch money. Tell your offspring that trying to pay the bully off only makes him want more.

If it goes badly, Vance will be thrown under the bus.


It’s already gone badly. Vance better hope people forget, but it seems armed conflict boondoggles are not easily forgotten: 1.7bb to Iran by Obama, the afghan pullout, and of course Iraq and Afghanistan
quote:

All that may be true. But what do you do when the people paying the bills for total war don’t want one and would vote in November to shut it down no matter what.


We became a cuck around April. They would have capitulated by now had we not been a b and agreeing to a ceasefire. Instead we finally signed the 39th, but “beautiful”, deal.
I’m definitely on the right, but this deal makes me think whoever was involved with it (JD Vance?) is a complete idiot and judging by these threads and the up/down votes in them some good portion of the right agrees with me. Give me Rubio in 2028.
For every $1 in federal tax you should get 1 vote. It’s extremely fair and is self balancing
Israel didn’t want this war to end. Just keep enforcing the blockade, what’s the big deal?
We never bombed their energy sites. Israel did it once and Trump got so mad. They would have been begging if we had bombed them
Baseball is arguably one of the most boring sports to play and watch. I think it’s cultural conditioning to say that it’s good.

American football, ice hockey, basketball, tennis are top tier

Soccer, volleyball, middle tier

Baseball, softball, golf, swimming. Bottom tier
Bomb their oil and natural gas fields and refineries.
Soccer matches are full of LGBT crowd. It’s not like that world wide, and is the opposite in fact. I went to a local one (quite fun and cheap) but started noticing other fans waving large gay flags. Then I knew I had became one of them…
My proposal:

Raise benefit age, probably +3 years

Reduce who receives benefits and/or cut benefits when beneficiary dies - for spouses / children

Reduce eligibility for disability and make it required to resubmit for eligibility every few years. SSDI is full of little-f “fraud”.
Become an Army/Air Force/Navy fan. They’re the only true college football teams remaining and usually at least one of them is good.
Let’s break it down. Oregons only losses have been to Indiana. Alabama also lost to Indiana, but has a quality loss to Florida state among others, so yeah, Alabama is better.

ODU played them pretty close, lots closer than Alabama. Crown them the #3 team.
Yes, but biggest blowout was the raping of Alabama
