Sounds like they're expecting casualties. "... (get your) personal affairs in order"

@19 JFC. This is The Guns of August redux.

Only one Congressman has a child serving in the US military-- he's an NCO in the US Army-- and ZERO children from the mega-oligarchs or the Trumpf Crime Family (TCF) are serving.

AIPAC-recipient candidates from both political parties better start looking over their shoulders this year or these lepers should start wearing disguises in public.

Trump willing to end war without reopening Hormuz'
The Wall Street Journal, citing US officials, is reporting that Trump has told his aides he is willing to end the war on Iran even if the Strait of Hormuz remains largely closed.

The WSJ reported that Trump and his aides have assessed in recent days that a mission to pry open the chokepoint would push the conflict beyond the president's timeline of four to six weeks.

Trump decided that the US should achieve its main goals of hobbling Iran's Navy and its missile stocks, and wind down the fighting, according to WSJ. The US would then pressure Iran diplomatically to resume the flow of trade and press allies in Europe and the Gulf to take the lead, it reported.

WOW

Trump is ready to declare defeat!

I wanna be... a TACO Man!

US President Donald Trump told aides he is willing to end the military campaign against Iran even if the Strait of Hormuz remains largely closed and leave a complex operation to reopen it for a later date, the Wall Street Journal reported on Monday, citing administration officials.

The report mentions that Trump's first option remains to open the Strait by negotiating an ending of the war with the Iranian regime, while a second option would be to demand that its allies, especially the Gulf States and NATO, lead the operations to reopen the Strait.

Other military options are being considered by the US President, WSJ noted, citing the officials, but they are not currently his immediate priorit

Let's take stock

Piggy killed and old man and replaced a moderate Iran regime with a hardline regime

He blew up a bunch of stuff that can and will be replaced

Iran still has it's nuclear material

Iran

Got sanctions lifted

Got control of the Strait of Hormuz

Will be collected tolls, in Yuan for oil traversing the strait

Gulf states are now living in fear of Iran

World economy has taken a blow that will take years to recover from-how bad the damage will be will depend on Iran's requirements for the strait

We've depleted our stocks of crucial weapons

Israel has seized 1/4 of Lebanon and will be at war with them for a while-this is a big question as to whether we can declare defeat and leave as Iran may still bomb Israel and the Gulf States over that little war crime

Lots of infrastructure damaged

SOO MMMUUUUCCCHHHH WIIIINNNNNIIIINNNNGGG

Thanks magat scum

Why Iran thinks they're winning:

THEY ARE WINNING.

Because Iran knows it does not have to defeat America.

It only has to survive America.

Iran's oil income has doubled since Feb 28.

"Steel wins battles, gold wins wars."

By the way I predict no winners in this war, only losers and bigger losers. Winners are the non-combatants like Saudi Arabia and China.

Lewzer lashes out at the UK and other countries, telling them to "go get your own oil" from the Strait of Hormuz. "You'll have to start learning how to fight for yourself, the USA won't be there to help you anymore, just like you weren't there for us".

Drumpf is saying now that the Straits don't matter, that they are other people's problems.

And that the new leaders of Iran are more moderate now... which is the opposite of what experts say.

He's going into full TACO mode now that he's gotten gas prices well over 4 bucks a gallon.

"We're not going to be there too much longer. We're obliterating the s--t out of them right now, it's a total obliteration," the president said in a phone interview.

"But we won't have to be there much longer -- but we have more work to do in terms of killing their offensive, whatever offensive capability they have left." ...

Trump said that other countries can sort out the Strait of Hormuz, which Iran has closed for 31 days, causing global energy prices to soar.

"Well, I think it'll automatically open, but my attitude is, I've obliterated the country. ...," he said ...

Pressed on a Wall Street Journal report that said he was willing to end the war without reopening the strait, Trump said: "I don't think about it, to be honest. ...

Iran has 'necessary will' to end war but seeking guarantees, President Masoud Pezeshkian says

... US Secretary of Defence Pete Hegseth said that the next days of the Iran war will be "decisive" while refusing to rule out US ground forces playing a role in the conflict.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said on Tuesday his country had the "necessary will" to end the ongoing war with Israel and the United States, but is seeking guarantees that the conflict would not be repeated.

"We possess the necessary will to end this conflict, provided that essential conditions are met, especially the guarantees required to prevent repetition of the aggression," Pezeshkian said in a phone conversation with the president of the European Council, according to a statement from his office, reiterating a key demand of Tehran's. ...
