If you understand who's proxy regime Iran has been for more than a century, you know who Trump is really threatening right now at the NATO summit.

He's threatening the crime syndicate behind NATO.

He's literally sitting there at their summit threatening the fuck out of them in code and they have to just sit there and keep those fake, frozen smiles on their faces while he does it.

Trump’s Iran errors are catching up with him​

Turns out winning a military campaign isn’t so easy, even when you have a commander-in-chief with the attention to detail, diplomatic skill and strategic brilliance of Donald Trump. Having come to power vowing an end to “forever wars”, the US president now finds himself reaping the consequences of his blunders and sinking into a quagmire of his own making.

I see Iran's China made YLC-8B radars "supposedly death to stealth aircraft" along with their Russian made radar networks are working against Yankee air power about as well as Venezuela's did.

And we aren't even bothering to use our stealth war planes to wipe them out. Were using USN 4'th Gen "Growler" Jabo's. Our HARM missilery is so good we can launch them from 100+ miles away and even if they turn the radars off, which they are no doubt doing, the missile itself will use its own MM wave radar to hunt down the radar targets themselves.

U.S. Navy’s EA-18G Growler Destroyed Chinese-made YLC-8B Anti-stealth Radar and Type 305A Radar in Iran.

Based on reports from early 28 February, 2026, multiple Chinese-made air defense radar systems, including variants of the YLC-8B (often mentioned alongside the YLC-8B series in discussions abo…

They tried that and Israel shot almost all of them down.

And while were at it could you explain to me how we "lost" this war with Iran because I'm a military Historian and have no idea what in hell your talking about.

We lost a couple airplanes and no pilots. Iran lost an entire air force. We didn't lose any naval warships. Iran lost an entire Navy. We lost one radar "I think". Iran lost almost all of theirs. Iran got their entire nuclear weapon production chain blowed to hell. Our entire 4,000+ nuclear triad of ICBMs, gravity bombs, cruise missiles, Bombers, submarine launched missiles, our still intact. In their entirety. Somewhere out there. In fact were building an entirely new generation of that triad right now. Missiles, bombs, stealth bombers, submarines, stealth Jabos...ect...ect...ad nauseam.

Our economy is back to doing very well. Iran's is held together with chewing gun and goat shit. It cost's $1,371,883.96 Iranian Rials to buy $1 USD. Thats one dollar for well over one million Rials. Thats 1931 wheelbarrow in Germany fiat. Iran needs the oil to flow far more then the rest of the world does and they need their infrastructure taken apart like they need a 2nd arsehole. Speaking of which IAF Jabos took out almost the entirety of their leadership on day 1 of this conflict. Helped by America. Whats left is terrified of their own people, let alone us. A people so desperate and full of hate for its leadership that 40,000 walked into heavy machine guns without walking out.

They have played it pretty smartly I'll give them that but I expected that. Iranians are Persian in background which means they think Asian and not Arab. The Arabs couldn't fight their way out of a paper bag but the Iranians will fight and fight smart, as well as ruthlessly. But they are way over matched and America is to smart to fight on their asymmetric level. We kicked the living shit out of them.

So I'm sorry you hate Trump Fat, if indeed you even know why "other then others in your orbit also do" but when you say stupid shit like this you sound like your head is up your ass.

Iran shut off the flow of goods in the Gulf and started charging for the right to pass. That's why they are the winners. They also did quite a bit of damage to Is-ra-hell and others. Sure they were hit back but I'm sure they expected it and planed for the event. Obviously it isn't enough to stop them.
 
Iran is in the Find Out stage of FAFO



They make agreements behind closed doors and then turn around and tell the press they never agreed to anything.

Obviously they are just trying to embarrass Trump by making him claim they have an agreement and then denying it.

But there's something about being bombed into oblivion that will knock the arrogant BS right out of you.

Trump's message the last few days has been this: "We can break everything you have and you can't do anything about it so you need to stop messing around."
 
Yeah start with the bridges and power plants. God help the innocent Iranians caught up in this sh!t.

Except, we can't, they shoot back and break tons of our stuff too, their neighbors that host US bases have their stuff broken too, Trump will beg for peace like the last 4 or 5 times...
 
Take this one fwiw, dyodd and make of it what you will.

The fight over Hormuz boils down to one poorly worded clause in Trump’s deal​

President Trump’s memorandum of understanding with Iran was supposed to open the Strait of Hormuz and relieve the pressure on the global economy. Instead, it set off a test of wills that has exploded into violence twice in the past two weeks.

The root of the dispute is Paragraph 5, which says Iran will make arrangements to restore shipping through the strategic waterway and then work with Oman to determine how to administer it in the future. But it also includes an Iranian pledge to ensure safe passage and remove military obstacles such as mines.

Syria deal gives Trump potential route to bypass Hormuz​

When Donald Trump sat down with Syria’s president this week, he was not in a good mood.

Just hours earlier, the Iranian “scum” – as the US president called them – had blown their chance at peace, and the ceasefire was annulled after Tehran fired at vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.

But Ahmed al-Sharaa, who once had a $10m (£7.5m) US bounty on his head, has become a firm favourite, and a potential solution to the US president’s greatest problem: finding a way to loosen Tehran’s chokehold on a key conduit for shipments of gas and oil.

In Mr Trump’s eyes, he is “fantastic” and has done a “great job” bringing together a country that was “a real mess, very disjointed”.

Trump doesn't care about the stuff of the US Iran breaks.

He wants to pull back from having bases across the globe.

If Iran destroys the bases, so what? We're leaving....

How do you know they made the agreements? Most honest reporting out of the area stated they were hardly even present at some of these so called meetings. Nah, there is a lot more going on there.

Could be rouge DS elements there in the Country, could be the military IRGC, who knows but its not like they are just one group.
