Iranian President Dr Mahmoud Pezeshkian had written a letter to the American people at the start of the illegal war against his country. He knows the American people aren't the enemy, but MAGA, Israel, and AIPAC are.

Tehran knows all about our munitions shortages, leadership shuffles, staggering economy, demoralized military, US alliance problems, and the mid-term elections.

Iran will simply wait this war out, watching the US economy crumble while anger grows in the streets of Amerikkka.

fwiw, imo, Iran looks to be going out over the tips of their skies with this latest list of demands.

Iran has absolutely no reason to trust the US, generally, and this administration in particular.

The strait used to be as open as Luvsorangeturds' dookie chute was at Angola.

@#10 ... The strait used to be as open as Luvsorangeturds' dookie chute was at Angola. ...

I am not aware of the analogy presented.

A search engine surfaced this ...

But that doesn't seem to be relevant.

So, I ask, what was the meaning of your #10 comment?

@12 ... You're stupid ...

Possibly.

But all I did was ask a question, asking for more information.

And what I received was an insulting reply.

thx.

The addition of the word "prison" helped with the search engines.

Also, "dookey chute" was new to me.

But after looking around, I now understand ...

I'll leave it there.

But I will say that is a new term for me that describes such sex acts.
