I'm not particularly interested in slapfighting. I just think the idea/rumors that Vance is working behind the scenes to sabotage trump or whatever are unfounded and schizo nonsense.
I’d like to believe he saw Vance being a doormat and just made those trooth to pressure the mediators to treat him properly.
He's not trying to insidiously "sabotage" Trump, you dumbfuck. Nobody is accusing him of that, and that's an autistic mischaracterization of what is being said as much as your cherrypicked previous message was. He's genuinely doing what he thinks is best, which is leading the nation in as isolationist a direction as possible. However, what he thinks is best is objectively retarded once the unprecedentedly bold decision to go in was made, and muddies the waters with half-measures. Hence the clusterfuck that followed the initial decision with the ceasefire and MoU.
I'd try to summarize but I'm busy verbally abusing Reuters journos for calling this a "military jet."
As far as I can tell, the new guy (Rodrigo Paz) got elected on a platform of basically unfucking the country after the native commie who ran the place (Evo Morales, also infamous for diddling a 14/15 year old girl) finished running Bolivia into the Andean bedrock. Neither Morales nor any puppet of his even got into the 2nd round, and due to retarded infighting Morales' party was also wiped out in the Bolivian congress equivalent (nuked from 75 seats out of 130 to literally 2). However the commies have been seething at all of Paz's efforts to undo their misrule, so they've protested against his economic reforms and have more recently been calling for his outright overthrow, no doubt so that Morales can snake his way back in.
the old avenger-class ships could probably do the job on demining the strait; there's only four of them still in service, but for a necessary trade artery like the strait of hormuz, i wager it would be worth it to divert them to there. the arleigh burkes are there to give them escort and air cover as well. imo trump is running a very tight ship and is worried about investing that many more military resources into the region than he already has both due to the war powers resolution and him not wanting to spook markets more than they already have been.
IT'S THE GOYQUAKE WEAPON
Hezbollah is Iran's main proxy, and Lebanon is their main command center. It's obviously Kayfabe.
My best guess is they're trying to plot a course from him that is popular with people who are both with Trump all the way, and some who aren't.
THE CIA'S GREATEST DOLLAR MENU ITEM
The notion Israel exists on its own is unkikely.
Stalin was 5'5"
Honestly? Because he's fucking terrified of taking casualties, and doing the shit necessary to impose our military's will on the situation would require that. The guy doesn't do military actions unless he thinks there's minimal risk, and he doesn't want to become another Dubya that just threw Americans into an asymmetric meat grinder like in Iraq. Most of his actions since the ceasefire started have just been "monkey see, monkey do" imitations of how Iran does negotiations.
Cough cough, Russia and Ukraine have become a cautionary tale. Longer than WWII. Its like a modern WW I horror with drones and trenches, but I agree, Trump needs to take some more risks here. Its a war and its a military, dying is part of the equation but thats the reality and you have face it.
This will remain a major weakness for America and the west.
EU always whines when Norway brings it out (but it's not like they have other sources they can admit buying from).
There is this correct belief that a full attack on Iran would result in its destruction and that of course is true; but not without immense losses being suffered by the United States. How it is framed as a simple easy act for the USA to take out the entire military power of a country like Iran is just a fallacy. It is a tough egg. Iran has called trumps bluffs repeatedly on this. Irans military will go to the bone with the USA if it has to and it will not be buried unless it takes a lot of others with it. On paper it’s obvious who wins; but in reality it will be a slaughter on both sides with a land invasion.
He's never getting that Nobel peace prize after he rattled Europe over NATO and Greenland. I think hes 100% correct on both stances, hell, I think we should just take Greenland, but someone should tell him the Nobel peace prize ain't happening.
Proof that manlets can't get laid without threatening to send her family to the gulag.
Yes but leadership should still be casualty-averse, lest you end up with the Prussian model of sacrificing entire divisions of men and boys for slightly better leverage at the negotiation table.
Hegseth is going to get on stage and give Trump the Nobel War Prize and then do push ups while "Real American" plays in the background.
