Because the financial perspective is the only one in which the USA can said to have losses here and is the front Iran can put counter pressure.

As far as believing US military propaganda goes. The Dems would 100 percent leak if losses were higher, bases got demolished, and a carrier got fucked up. Point blank.

They arent. So that hasnt happened.
you don't need dems to leak anything lol the iranians themselves would loudly celebrate and gloat if they got any serious W against america. all the OSINT channels would be flooded with footage of burger assets getting blown up, we would literally never see the end of it.
 
The big issue I have with claims that the us is hiding loses including casualties seems to forget that information leaks from troops on the ground. I don’t get the idea that the us is suppressing information of terrible losses unless you already mistrust the United States already.

An Israeli airstrike struck a vehicle in a possible assassination strike in the Jnah neighborhood, southern Beirut.

This is possibly the KC-135 that crashed. It was a part of the 459th Air Refueling Wing jet based at Andrews AFB.

ENTRY21 flight (x2 B-2) with Santa Maria HF 6628 this morning on their way back west for Whiteman AFB after an Iran strike mission.
I like how the plane democrats and rinos killed because it wasn't produced in their pork barrel districts and so only 21 were ever made are doing 90% of the work in this war.
What a amazing plane, nearly invisible to chink or pajeet radars yet it can carry a absolute fuckton of bombs and fly across the world, with the pilots eating hot pockets in the microwave inside the cockpit and drinking coke in their mini fridge for the 24+ hours flight.
 
If anything causes the US to lose, it would be this. Iran is held by a very ideologically minded group posing as a government with a singular grand objective. You can blow all there shit up but unless you go in and remove them, they will just bunker down and wait for you. The IRGC never gave shit about the people of Iran or even the well being of the county as a whole, other then what they could siphon off from them for their retard goals. They'll take cover in civilian populated areas just like every other muzzie militia so we can't just bomb em, forcing us to send people in. They're already hiding underneath bridges and over passes. I hope trump and the D.O.W. has a better plan for regime change other than just hoping the Kurds or some other group starting an uprising.

If I were Trump, I would pressure the UN to stop recognizing anyone from the IRGC as part of the Iranian government and kick out any of the envoys they have in the UN. That way you can make the narrative be we are at war with a violent and retarded extremist group that's suppresses the actual government. Kind of like ISIS. That's what the IRGC really are at the end of the day, ISIS if they actually managed to win.
 
Something I'm still missing about Trump's plan - how can they secure the strait without someone's infantry on the Iranian side?

Even if the planned uprising happens, the revolutionary guard isn't just going to disband within a day.
Estimates I've seen place Iran as completely running out of launchers in about a week or so. As that goal begins to wind down, they can shift focus to destroying their fleet of speedboats and other short-range shit that's not a big deal to a military vessel, but makes tanker insurers wet their pants.
CENTCOM has already told civilians to avoid ports along the Strait, as they've become valid military targets.

Against a rational country you just make bigger problems for them everywhere else, but Iran isn't rational. I guess the plan is to strike them whenever they do anything and hope that no one is willing to do it.

Keep destroying their drone bases and missile launchers and go hard on their military port facilities. The reason they want hohol expertise is that Ukraine routinely faces far larger missile and aerial drone attacks from Russia than Iran is putting out now, and the hohols do far better than the Gulf states have at defending them. Even at its narrowest point hitting stuff out in the Strait requires drones (aerial or naval) or vehicle-/speedboat-launched missiles, squads of IRGC grunts with mortars or shoulder-fired missiles can't hit that far

Big, fuck off targets aren't the long term problem. It's the shit like Drones and little, fast boats with explosives that will keep the Strait a dicey place indefinitely so long as someone who hates Israel and the West still holds ground.
