@sunsporter1649 Here's the problem. Trump is plainly in denial, claiming regime change has already been achieved via assassination. He has this strange habit of behaving like a spectator, detached from the chaotic events he himself sets in motion.
He acts as if the global energy shock, the US’s abject failure to defend the Hormuz strait and its Gulf allies, Iran’s unyielding defiance under fire, and the absence of the predicted popular uprising in Tehran have nothing to do with him.
He doesn’t understand Iran is fighting an asymmetric war, that even the biggest bombs cannot obliterate pride and ideology, faith and history.
That's why he's desperate for an out. I challenge you to respond without a meme or a deflection.
This is what the U.S. does. We are fundamentally a war machine. Presidents boast of "no wars" in their candidacies, but we need ongoing war to survive and feed the defense industry. Sometimes that only involves selling weapons to other nations (like Israel), but sometimes it involves being directly involved. Thinking "it will be different this time" (despite the fact that Iran is a much more formidable enemy than Iraq and Afghanistan ever were) is also a key part of never learning from history, something we're great at in this country.
using expeditionary forces/special forces to carry out a set goal doesn't qualify as a "ground invasion"; we do it all the time in various countries.
yes, Iran wants to make a deal cause they're getting the shit kicked out of them. Their air force is destroyed, their blue water navy is destroyed, their air defenses are mostly destroyed, and continued resistance/threats are merely delaying the inevitable.
there's no need for a full on invasion, as once they lose complete control of hormuz strait, they'll essentially be rendered impotent... (it's the only thing they have left that can be used as any sort of leverage)
@wildbill83 Trump lies and boast his lies, the only way a person should believe what Trump says is when they actually see it happening.

Quite sure they're running low just like the US is running low but they are still at it. Doesn't sound like Iran wants to make a deal to me.
Iran POSED NO CURRENT threat for nuclear weaponry / Trump is lying this is not about nukes, nor is it about helping the people of Iran or the people of Israel.
