Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Sunday, March 15, 2026

Donald Trump said on Saturday that the United States may carry out more strikes on Iran's vital Kharg Island oil export hub "just for fun", rejecting the prospect of a swift peace deal with Tehran. "The terms aren't good enough yet," the US president told NBC News. The Iranian regime wants to make an agreement, he claimed. After days of conflicting messaging from the White House on how much longer it will continue to wage war on Iran, Trump alleged that US strikes had "totally demolished" most of Kharg Island, and told the network that its military may hit site "a few more times just for fun".

"a few more times just for fun".

Well, Trump's a sociopath after all. No conscience. Moral behavior an impossible abstraction. The suffering of others twice as impossible.

Yeah, I'll bet that he will have fun.

Monstrous sumbitch.

The longer the Iran War goes on, the quieter MAGA becomes. This is interesting, given that when they think Donald is on the rise you can't shut them up.

When your god proves to be made of tin after all, that's a huge comedown.

Unfortunately, the human sacrifice stage of worship to Lord Trump has only started.

Anyone up for a discussion about Huner's laptop?

Let's be clear. The US and Israel are losing BADLY.

Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz

That strait controls 20% of the world's oil, 25% of the world's natural gas and 35% of the world's fertilizer (we are entering the planting season for like 70% of the world's arable land).

There are no feasible military options to reopen the strait. UNDERSTAND THAT. There are no feasible military options.

Western allies-Europe, Japan, S. Korea, Australia, India, Taiwan all rely heavily on oil from the gulf. Taiwan has enough oil for like 10 days of power left. Then their industries go black.

Who has oil? Russia.

We are pushing these nations towards Russia and China.

the Gulf state's relationship with the United States was based on our security guarantees. That is being shown to be a paper tiger. Now the gulf states have limited options for security, but they are likely to take serious body blows to their economies.

Make no mistake, Iran will be dictating terms to the US and Israel.

And that will be HUMILIATING.

And it all didn't have to happen
