Let me explain something to the morons out there. President Piggy is going to have the Singular achievement of losing a war without having controlled the country. Let me explain. We lost Viet Nam, We lost Afghanistan, We lost Iraq. But in all of those wars we controlled all or a substantial part of the country for an extended period of time. That will not be the case with Iran. Let's be clear about something. In the 100+years where air power has been a thing, NO war was ever won by air power alone. No Regime FELL by air power alone. So, brag all you want about destroying this that or the other thing or murdering countless children. ALL IRAN HAS TO DO TO WIN IS SURVIVE read more

Another thing.
Iran is exporting MORE oil since the war began
Piggy has effectively lifted sanctions on Iranian oil.
Iran is making a great deal of money as a result of the 2 above factors.
Iran is ALSO extracting a toll on tankers traversing the Strait of Hormuz. Iran is selling its oil at a premium and exacting a toll and being paid in Yuan.
The value of the oil at sea that Iran will be able to sell with sanctions lifted alone is around $15,000,000,000
The "pallets of cash" Iran received as part of the JCPOA that republicans whined about was valued around $1,700,000,000
So, understand this, Iran, as a result of this war, has had their sanctions lifted.
Does anyone think they will agree to cessation of hostilities and a return of sanctions?
In summary Iran could end up not giving up its nuclear material, will have sanctions lifted, make MORE money from oil, extract a toll on oil traversing the strait
That is a deal only piggy could accomplish
