Forever wars is not using the full force and might of the US military to end the war.
Which is what the MIC/DC/Halliburton/BlackRock cabal made their billions on.
Trump is stopping that bullshit.
It depends on which news report one relies on to discern what is happening amidst the fog of war. The argument can easily be made that Trump is relying on the advice of Lindsey Graham and Mark Levin too much.
I want to believe the Tom Luongo narrative. That Trump is playing 4D chess to checkmate the City of London. But it's clear that regardless of outcome, we are going to be over there for years.
The fact that Trump wanted the 2026 military budget increased by 50% last year tells me that they knew all along we would be invading Iran. And mark my words, there will be boots on the ground to root out the IRGC from the cliffs overlooking the Strait of Hormuz. Trump's other option is to declare victory and bring everyone home, but he knows that will be mocked globally as defeat. The midterms clock is ticking.
It's now a staring contest between the USA and Iran. And I do think Iran believes we will blink first. The blockade continues to be effective. So we shall see.
GADZOOKS!

Consider your words marked. And, good! Who the fuck cares? That's what the military is there to do: shit that we need done that requires the use of force. It was never supposed to be paid pension summer camp.
Let 'em go root out the IRGC.
Throbber doesn’t want American soldiers to die. Ever. Even though they know the risk when they sign up.
That said a couple of MOABs will do a fine job of rooting out anything hunkered down in the cliffs surrounding the Strait of Hormuz.
Throbber happens to believe the US has more secret bombs and DEWs and all sorts of shit they haven’t used yet. No use throwing deep if the Corey Dillon of militaries is gobbling up 12 yards per carry.

The no plan keeps developing
It’s been another day since yesterday though.
Quagmire 2.0!
Fudgie’s too young to remember Quagmire 1.0.
Need boots on the ground to secure the nukes....
You mean the fissile material, that according to tugtards they don't have. You know, despite Iran claiming they do now...
The pilot rescue already showed what it could look like.
Either that or give it another month of blockade and see how effective their fast reaction forces are while starving in a cave.
My college roommate who retired as a Colonel was over in Jordan for a year about 10 years ago. As boots on the ground. And this was before we were stuck in this quagmire of a forever war.

Facts are what they are. Iran has bottled up the strait. They can use this as leverage in perpetuity now whereas prior to the idiot's war they couldn't... they retain their basic governmental structure and we have not taken a single inch of Iran. Normally in a war you actually have to take their land and dismantle their government. None of that shit happened.... it's a quagmire... That fuckin dimwitted Hegseth shot his wad of most of the US's expensive arms (missiles and whatnot) leaving us in a state of depletion for years to come. But it didn't seem to do that much. Now fuck off you idiotic trumptards.
As each day passes the strait becomes less relevant
Nature adapts and so do nations
Iran doesn't control it anyway. America does. Iran can't do shit
