Iran

[LouderVol]

If it was left to Congress then there currently wouldn't be a South Korea and there also wouldn't be a Kuwait. There would probably be Russian nukes in Cuba.
Gaddafi or his successor would still be in Libya, Hussain or one of his crazy sons would be leading Iraq and joining Iran.

There is a reason the President of the United States is called the Commander in Chief and not the United States Congress.

lol, might want to dig up the history there.

Man can not control the or manipulate the Laws of God, Physics, economics, or human nature. To think otherwise is very arrogant and foolish.

There is only one god and he does not tolerate blasphemy. What do you pretend to know about the supply and demand of oil?

 

[Vol8188]

Starting to think? It's like Iran being "2 weeks away" from nukes for the last 40 years straight

You intentionally misunderstand the two weeks claim.

It's like Chris Murphy suddenly woke up and realized what America's "Axis of Evil" foreign policy is based on. It is based on endless war.

 

[adam.vol]

This seems accurate to me based on their inability to come up with a narrative that lasts more than a few days. Unfortunately, it does not answer the all important “what are they really trying to accomplish?” Because something tells me that this is going exactly to someone’s plans.

? Hitting the bottle a little early.

I thought Maverick took out Iran's nuclear capabilities a few years back. That Tom Cruise can do anything.

 

[Vol737]

If they have so many missiles, why do they not use them? Why fire 10 missiles in 24 hours?

Degraded launch systems capability. They have them, but we have gone after their launching systems effectively so it takes longer and makes it more difficult to reload projectiles onto those launch systems.

It’s an honest question. What do you pretend to know about the supply of oil?

I don't worship Israel, I just recognize that they have the world's 2nd best military.

IDK about that. Poland and even England would be above Israel IMO.

South Koreans are no slouch, and are still technically at war.

Unless they have done a massive upgrade since the early 90s they're not much.

Not for an all out war

They have elite intelligence, IAF and special forces tho

Not sure where the Israeli military ranks world-wide, but I think they're capable of dealing with Iran without us.

 

[NashVol11]

There should have been a strategy for this well before starting a war

 

[OrangeTsar]

What’s reality? All I see is you getting snagged. Hook, line, and sinker. They’re price gouging, same as always.

Karl Marx called. He would like his copy of Das Kapital back please.

 

[EasternVol]

So in your world, they were not at the level as John Kerry. Got it.

I guess we should face the reality that real estate developers don't make the best nuclear proliferation negotiators. I do understand that it's difficult for some to accept though.

 

[EasternVol]

When supply is down or even threatened, the price goes up, when a plane is out of fuel it goes down, simple. Commies think they can artificially control prices. The laws of God, Physics, economics, and human nature can not be violated.

That correlation is some magical thinking. Nixon imposed price controls. Was he a commie?

 

[ButchPlz]

Absolutely wild take.

The confidence some people have posting when they don't even know basic, recent events boggles the mind.

 

[OrangeTsar]

You seriously underestimate the Isreali military.

And he also seriously underestimates the power of the God who protects Israel.
The Bible is pretty clear that once God gathers the scattered Jewish diaspora back to the land, no one will ever dislodge them again.

Nixon was 100% a big government central control guy. Not a commie but definitely a hard core federalist.

Nixon wasn’t a Commie. Nor was he a true economic conservative.
He made several economically illiterate moves in his presidency.
