That depends how you look at it - this thing isn't over and there are a dozen countries that had been relatively super secure and safe for practically decades that are getting shitty iranian drone attacks.

This will have a negative knock on effect on the world economy since those countries (gulf states) are huge buyers of luxury goods and other retarded shit.

People are clapping for this and I kinda am but at the same time if the US/Israel/Gulf States can't stop Iran's missile/drone attacks quickly, this may have a huge, negative and lasting impact on the world economy and people are going to look at Trump in a very different way 5 or 10 years from now.

The damage/impact for now is sort of minimal in some sense but it has brought the world's busiest international airport to a complete standstill - that is not a small thing.
Real talk though. What Iran is doing is far less severe then the projections of an all-out war between Iran and the USA in the Persian Gulf. Its possible the Jewbilee last year seriously degraded their capability. But even during the 12 day war their ability to strike at Israel was seriously lackluster.

At the time though people chalked that up to Iran's long range stuff being more limited when compared to their short range weapons. What we are seeing now though is that even the SRBMS and kamikaze drones Iran has are nowhere near as effective as advertised. They have very little to show for their efforts beyond nuisance disruption to civilian areas.

Either the USA and Israel seriously decapitated their capability in the opening hours or their capability was largely smoke and mirrors.
 
My opinion is that Iran, China, and Russia (to an extent) also massively fund socialists and regime apologists in the US through dark money networks, i.e. antiwar groups in New York funded by Neville Roy Singham were mobilized 10 minutes before Trump actually declared war. Heck, I'm sure that conveniently timed environment lawsuits tying up fab construction in the US can be tied to China as well.

Cuba is a prime example of what happens when you don't lance a communist boil, it ends up spreading everywhere (African wars in the 60s, Communist wars in South America, Cuban Missile Crisis, Sao Paulo Forum, Venezuela).

Furthermore, Iran ties into Trump's strategy of isolating China before they can move on Taiwan, considering that 20% of its oil imports come from Iran and Venezuela, often sold at discount. Ultimately Vietnam and the GWOT soured Americans on forever wars, but if Trump can act decisively and win, then he will prove that might makes right, and that America truly still is the hegemon.

Oh I 100% Agree , but it isn't just the left. anybody remember /SG/ Sandnigger General or whatever tf it was called. that general on /pol/ shilling assad and hezbollah their was entire sub genre youtube channels about it. Those where 100% funded by the IRGC
 
Bong here, official word from the .gov website is a terror attack is likely. “Threat level substantial”, 3/5.
The UK government is committing to the "defensive operation". That is, we are sending warships and warplanes with anti-air capabilities to the region to help shoot down Iranian drones and missiles attacking allied military bases, shipping and Gulf states in the region, but we will not be participating in the direct strikes on Iran itself.


So, if there is a terror attack, it will be muslims chimping out at the UK for using its military assets to protect muslim states like Qatar or UAE that Iran is currently chimping out at because they are too inept to hit US assets directly. The UK will not be bombing brown people in Gaza or Iran, it will be shooting down killer robots in the sky to save brown people and Western military personnel. At best they can claim they are doing terror attacks because they are pissed off that the Brits are making it slightly harder for Iran to kill Americans.

This may seem retarded, but Islamists do not need logic to chimp out and slaughter innocent mums and kids at Tesco.
 
Either the USA and Israel seriously decapitated their capability in the opening hours or their capability was largely smoke and mirrors.
Or they're more patient and smarter than people think and they're spamming cheap drones to not only cause fear and to saber rattle but to figure out where anti air defences are and exhaust their ammunition.

If this were Command & Conquer and almost anyone was playing this map right now, they would be spamming drones.

I find that hard to believe, their president / religious leader is dead, so are most of their top ranking generals from what I understand. Being patient here doesn't make a lot of sense unless there's some military strategist that think this is his chance to take over the country. If I was them I'd be so pissed off I'd fire everything I had before the US/Israel have a chance to destroy them.
 
Seriously, with Palestinians, you lose BADLY. Lmao
Why do you think every Arab nation refuses outright to take Palestinians in? Because they do nothing productive, just cause trouble and stir up shit everywhere they go.

Jordan tried taking in Palestinians, the refugees tried to overthrow the monarchy. Egypt tried, they got nothing but headaches for their trouble. Nobody likes them.

honestly I would have bombed Israel first
Unironically this.
Taking out Israeli sub pens would make the world a safer place and reduce the pressure Turkey and the Saudis have to get nukes of their own.
That, and a grudgebearing people need to learn forgiveness before being trusted with WMDs.
 
As a moderate conservative, and good friend of the recently passed Senator Bloodfeast, I have to say the following.
" MORE BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD MACHINE. DESTROY AND KILL UNTIL ONLY ISRAEL REMAINS THE SINGULAR PRESTINE JEWEL IN THE SANDS OF THE MIDDLE EAST. WE NEED 1 TRILLION MORE LITERS OF BLOOD BEFORE OUR DARK GOD IS PLEASED WITH OUR WORK AND BLESSES US WITH ANOTHER THOUSAND YEARS OF SUPREMACY OVER EARTH, HER PEOPLES, AND HER NATIONS."

Thank you for your time, and God Bless America, and Israel.
 
Also Iran striking the Gulf has been the biggest self-own, considering that the Gulf was previously moving against allowing the US to strike Iran from their bases.

I think they were hoping that this would dissuade the Gulf, but like Hitler's blitz, this basically informs the Gulf that they will never be safe until the Iranian regime is gone. This might actually point to a degradation of decision-making skills within the central circles of Iranian government after the Iranian-Israeli wars back in 2025, and maybe starting even as early as Trump's assassination of Soleimani.
