Trump underestimated his enemy!

News articles. Do you ever read them?

@Foxmeister

Are you going to produce your news sources to support your claim that DT said he had no idea Iran had so many missiles and drones?

Or…. Just say you misspoke, misunderstood, or just plain got it wrong and let’s move on.

It’s important because folks come on this board and attack our POTUS with statements that are untrue.

There is plenty to criticize DT on without false information.

Additionally, your service in military intelligence should make you fully aware of the importance of accurate information, without bias, that is supported by facts, not speculation on how you think someone will act or what you imagine they are saying to their subject matter experts

Peace to you

Good news!!! Cease fire!!!

Hopefully optimistic this will be the beginning of the end of this war!!!

Despite those spewing hyperbolic misinformation, it appears DT has once again been proven right.

Should this hold, Iran will be better off, the Middle East will be safer, and DT will continue to be vilified by all the haters who would rather have the world burn than DT get credit for being right.

Peace to you

This news conference was four weeks ago. Go to the 17:50 mark. He's reminded he said this war would be over soon. He states here it will be over very soon. 21:48 he states we wiped Iran out in the first two days, yet to this day the war is not over. He also states their missiles are wiped out, yet they have still been launching them. 23:42 he goes into how Iran was only weeks away from having a nuclear weapon, yet, following the attacks on their three nuclear sites he said it would take them years before they could resume developing them. Was he lying when he said that or was he lying in this press conference?

This from another thread for perspective.

And the reason that there are still Iranian people who are resisting is because the purpose is not to wipe the country off the map.
There is a marked difference between previous people who have said things like this war in Ukraine will probably last for twenty years and we’ll finish this up in weeks.

I would much rather have someone who plans to finish the job quickly and go longer than planned, than to have someone plan for twenty years and go longer than planned.

He should have thought about how to keep the straits open before he went to war. He's just playing catch-up now.
He should have realised the fanaticism of the Iran regime when it slaughtered thousands of its own people back in January. And by assassinating the Iranian leaders, Trump ends up not knowing whom to negotiate with.

That is a two edged political sword (the alternative would be to continue doing business, as the EU has, with a regime that slaughters thousands of its citizens).

Personally, I would be in favor of the US using her own oil and let nations who cannot produce what their nation needs fen for themselves (but this is problematic for maintaining profit margins and refineraries would have to shift in refining "sweet oil").
