This has always been how the world works, just just can see it clearly now with social media. Get a dog.
Dear Facebook 
More than anything he needs to FINISH THE JOB!!!
That's Because you live in an Instagram world and have no concept of reality.
Things like this don't wrap up at the touch of a button because you want them to.
We have completely obliterated, militarily, an entire country in 40 days. Go check world history on the timeline of that.

Huh. Wonder where all those attacks on US bases in the region are coming from.
Glad you started a new thread.
Before starting the next war, he should send everyone an Outlook calendar invite to insure that it fits with our busy schedules!

'Member when a certain someone claimed he'd end the war in Ukraine before his first day in office? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
I member when Ukraine was nothing but a money laundering operation. Oh right. Still is.
What is the urgency? The navy is getting good live experience enforcing a blockage right now. The air force executed thousands of sorties and missions and this will pay dividends for years to come. Gas prices are up but the US oil companies are doing well as a result and presumably your 401(k) as well. I have faith the market will correct eventually.
It is better that the Middle East transform dramatically. So long as Iran was a hegemon in the region, there is always a threat of terrorism and no you don't want to see a nuclear-armed Iran ever. The time to take their nuclear ambitions back at least 5-10 years was now and Trump took the option rather than waking up to an announcement in 2028 that Iran had joined the club and is now immune from any military coercion.
Not saying OP is necessarily one of these people, but gosh people are manipulated by media. This war has been very successful for the USA by any measure.

If you spend your time hanging on every word from Trump or Trump critics it will drive you crazy, it's a constant battle of competing narratives. Be patient and look beyond the noise at the big picture and understand that most of what you hear is posturing and politics until something is done. Trump is the master of trolling and playing games in negotiation, never take him literally.

Ruling class is just using this to make more Money/power, same **** different year/generation.
We aren't quite at 70 days since the conflict started, and we think it is taking too long? Our society is cooked. Sorry, we can't enact a military operation, cease bombing and put a country under siege, and finish negotiations as quickly as people can consume a tiktok video.
With that said, we can almost involuntarily extricate a dictator that fast though.
Yep. Iran diminished and its missile and nuke programs majorly set back, its sponsored terror organizations crushed and reeling. Israel normalizing relations with most of their neighbors and making peace with Lebanon. China put on notice how vulnerable their energy supply is to us if they start trouble.
Seems like we coming out with a Middle East we can leave alone and not have to expend so much attention and resources on in the future snd a much better strategic position long term.
It couldn't be expected to be much better than it is now. Maybe short of a new government in Iran.

My preference is to blow up Karg Island and every power station and bridge and every time a light comes on, bomb that too. Then every time an Ayatollah or Republican Guard sticks his head up, have the Israelis kill them.

The Islamic Republic Iranians are insane, evil and horrible.

I don’t get enough credit for the things I manage not to say.
because this "war" has gone on for so long compared to other wars?!?!?!

Here is the alternative:
"The situation is fluid, and we don't have a concrete update yet".
If that is better, just turn off your phone for a few weeks and check back later.
It takes a special kind of brainwashed useful idiot to politically defend government fraud, waste, and abuse.

Stop viewing Iran as if it is a War and start realising it is just another Tuesday and you will no longer get so exhausted over it.
Ignore it. Live your life. Unless you have a relative or friend serving out in the Persian Gulf currently, the only effect it has on us here in the states is the price of gas, which goes up and down anyway.

The impatience looks ridiculous, but that's the reality when you're dealing with one of the most important economic chokepoints on earth. You can't keep it closed for long before pandemonium ensues.
I was listening to a podcast with an energy analyst named Rory Johnston. due to oil surpluses that topped up reserves in the months leading up to the start of the campaign (which trump probably knew about and which bought him more time), Rory estimates that we have until August or so before things start getting really hairy. So we're a little under halfway through that.
I'm optimistic that we bring this to a close in the next few weeks. Everyone involved and those not yet involved have too much to lose.
This thread proves there are still sane people in this world despite the ongoing assault on our attention spans and logical reasoning by traditional and social media.
Good to see.

You must be feeling very relaxed and rejuvenated if you're operating in Tuesday while the rest of us are in Thursday
Picked Tuesday because its more stressful than Thursday but not as FUBARed as Monday.rgag12 said:You must be feeling very relaxed and rejuvenated if you're operating in Tuesday while the rest of us are in ThursdayBTKAG97 said:

Back in my day wars lasted years, not days.
Gig 'em! '90

This is why anyone trading against it is foolish. The insiders are making a killing though.
Iran is going to have to be obliterated it seems.
Trump is a pacifist at heart and thus his resistance to do that. So we have what we have.
