It appears that the missiles fired at the US ships were stopped by the Phalanx systems. If that is the case, then they were just seconds from hitting the ships. This is not a smart thing to do. Trump is risking the lives of hundreds of sailors and a billion dollar ship for a publicity stunt.

This is not sustainable or sensible. Eventually a missile will get through.

Also we have no operational mine clearing equipment and you are sailing into a mine field. That is just stupid.

This is not a smart thing to do.

Sounds very on brand for him then. I’ve given up on expecting there to be an end to this, I think it will just go on and on and on until Trump gets kicked out of office (and then some more because Dems are just as eager about this war and sucking off Bibi).


Isn’t the US Navy’s whole posture that it’s the biggest, strongest Navy there is? They have the whole mantra, something like “the subs show themselves when they want to be seen.” Always foreshadowing with leagues of ships sailing the high seas, blowing up their old ships for target practice, blowing up projectiles towed by aircraft with their CWIZ and enough precision that it obliterates the projectile, each individual piece of the projectile, and then the towed cord? Their nuclear powered rail gun technology. All the stunts, all the money, all the time and detail… and now imagine Iran stunts on the US Navy. That would be more humiliating than the air dominance fiasco.

Iran: Let me introduced you to my 20 thousand dollar drones.



They follow a pedophile’s orders, they get what they deserve.

Suckers and losers.



Wow look at that pollution….


But we’re totally not at war, nope, that’s all on pause…

We’re not at war, unless they need that to win a different argument then it’s “we’ve been at war with Iran for 47 years!” As always, they have no consistent ethical or moral framework and always argue in bad faith.

Also, don’t fall for the pearl clutching about the “death to America” chants. “Death to …” is their version of “fuck …”. When someone says fuck the US, they don’t literally mean have sex with the US.



Dayum those boats are big bois
