Mirasteel:The US killed him? Post a link that proves that. Who assassinated the previous prime minister Ali Razmara? Secondly, the British were the ones that had a problem with Iran not the US. The US came in because Britain needed help. Thirdly, how is nationalizing another countries assets right in your eyes? |
Mirasteel:You should read the story… misinformation should be a crime. The British had a deal with Iran Mosaddegh, a defense minister at the time claimed the deal was impartial and pushed to void it. The then prime minister, Prime Minister Ali Razmara was against it. HE WAS ASSASSINATED IN March 1951. Britain took the issue to the ICJ and UN but they ruled that they had no jurisdiction. Iran refused to pay reparations or renegotiate, but instead nationalized foreign assets. Britain with the help of the US enforced a blockade operation AJAX and overthrew mosaddegh who was now the prime minister and helped the Shah rise to power. They had a good relationship with the Shah until the revolution in 1979. |
michlins:IRGC fought the US to a standstill? This Iranian media must write their news with charms. Isreal begged for a ceasefire? Kindly post a link where Netanyahu came on air and asked the IRGC to stop bombing them? The IRGC bombed the GCC which had nothing to do with the war and you call that courage? Think for a minute, what are aircraft carriers for if they wanted to launch attacks from the GCC? They have over $300bn in damages, leadership vacuum and a revolting populace. And you may have been right that Isreal would’ve struggled to decimate Iran before the start of the war, but as of today, Isreal alone will reduce Iran to rubbles. Trump gave them time to dig up their buried missile and drones and that’s why you can type what you did. Look up who asked for a return to ceasefire after the IRGC bombed Isreal and they retaliated. I’m beginning to feel Trump wants to retain Isreal as his checkmate to Israel’s excesses, to just remind them why the need the US. |
It’s a classic carrot stick model. Give them a little taste of what they’re missing. No one in the world has a problem with the average Iranian, they’re smart, beautiful people. But the IRGC fanatic shite cult must be decimated. You cannot be a self proclaimed emissary of God. Your people chose moderation, transparency, justice, and civility not a theocracy.
|
Trump is indeed a businessman, astute and clear eyed. All eyes on him. America couldn’t be more blessed. He isn’t perfect but he’s what they need now against the backdrop of sleepy J**. |
@OP, tag those who need to see this. Bloody hypocrites, it’s not about killing or evil but that they’re not the ones doing it. |
The timing coincides with the start date of the World Cup. Very smart move, while eyes are on the match the IRGC will have something else to contend with. |
allthingsgood:It was a hoax. You must understand that the US has the best surveillance system in the world. Largest number of low orbiting satellites. In addition to Mossad and CIA agents in the region. The could see the moves and knew it was a delay tactic to ram up to 70% enrichment. The IRGC knows the moment its moves away from its anti Isreal rhetoric its relevance in the region diminishes. They’re not that important to the global value chain. The world is just full of hypocrites, how many Nigerians would’ve loved to live in Iran of 10 years back. A young man was tortured for weeks because someone in the car he was in drank alcohol. |
Originalsly:The strait is owned by both Oman and Iran, legally it’s an international waterway that should not be towed. Whose military tech is better than the US? The Chinese tech didn’t save Russia, Venezuela or the IRGC. |
Adebisi444:It’s refreshing to read what you wrote. But the issue is that Iran is a theocracy. Which is worse than monarchy and communism combined. So they justify their actions by saying bismillah. |
Adebisi444:To a carpenter every problem should be solved with a hammer. Even the human body takes order from the brain. Even when this war is over, Iran would continue to have power struggles, because unanimous decision would be difficult. There was a professor all over the internet that said Iran would never negotiate with the US, that he was 100 percent sure, but today they’re in talks. Their president has shown that he is against the leadership of the IRGC. They’re not economist or diplomats, they’re fighters and victory is either being a martyr or absolute destruction. |
What people must understand is, war planes, jets, helicopters are not made for decorations. If the U.S. didn’t use some of them in this war, they would’ve been retired in 5-10 years because China, Turkey and Russia are making more advance jets. And a jet or helicopters ability to dominate the battlefield is only as good as the technology it possesses. Stealth, speed, maneuver system, and fuel efficiency. So to those saying the US lost something of immense value, take a seat, they were not in-disposable. |
I think a rogue unit did the attack. One of the downsides of having a decentralized army. One group is speaking with Trump another is sabotaging peace efforts. |
I hope the Nobel peace prize is worth it Mr Trump. The job isn’t finished and you know it, hopefully you have a man for the job like with Syria. |
Nnamdipapa:Your argument contradicts itself. The US president has the power to go to war but inform Congress within a set number of days. His lawyers are very good at looking at loopholes to exploit to the advantage of the nation. If he wasn’t bothered about Congress why is he concerned about midterm elections? The house just ruled that the war should end so why hasn’t he gone against this ruling? His military budget is still pending Congress approval. I blame America for not allowing bylaws to override certain processes in times of war. Which Russian senator would antagonize Putin? Or Kim Jon that had an election and was the only one on the ballot? Or Xi? My advice to Trump, you are clear eyed and have done a good job cutting through the BS of other nations. You’ve accurately called out the EU for who they really are, charlatans. Not one of them could stand with Ukraine. President Trump this is not the time to doubt your intuition, there’s a storm rising in the east, end it before it matures. |
AfonjaPriest:This is partly correct. The unverified 168 school girls killed has been the center piece of this war, notwithstanding that the IRGC has killed numerous civilians (children and adult) in the GCC. The Western media promotes this news more than the IRGC itself which would kill American kids without batting an eyelid if the tables were turned. People forget that, at the end of the day in war, the decision rests on the soldier at the frontline. Trump or Netanyahu had nothing to do with it. So surgical strikes is the hardest thing to do in war. But it’s the way to go. My issue with pro-IRGC supporters is that you folks don’t really revere human life, you just want to be the one with more bodies in the ground. The IRGC killed athletes teenagers no condemnation, Amini? No condemnation, Hamas executes Gazans in public, no condemnation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kRlqkQ4CZvk |
frankson1:Okay… do your research. You can use deepseek, it’s Chinese so I believe it will be more credible by your standards. |
HenryStarlife:The President of Lebanon asked the IRGC to leave Lebanon alone. They told Hezbollah to disarm. The IRGC is the one that doesn’t care about human lives, if they did, they would ask Hezbollah to move to Iran and not fight from Lebanon. |
Again, to those that don’t understand, the IRGC is no match for the US, talk less Isreal. The best decision hegeseth took was allowing the US and Israeli forces work together. Their efficiency is unmatched. The US should train their soldiers in the Middle East. Re-channel NATO contributions to the Middle East, and see value for your money. By the way, Iranian backed factions are laying down arms in Iraq. Hezbollah is only running on borrowed time.
|
Nnamdipapa:I think you should update your information. They’ve gone back to the ceasefire. The US is restricted by Congress and useful idiots. They have the might but not the ability to act unhindered. |
The IRGC has returned to ceasefire…. Why? Isreal took out all their missile launchers in 9 strikes plus a petrochemical plant as bonus. The IRGC should call Hezbollah to order. Rebel factions in Iraq have agreed to disarm and join the Iraqi army, as should be.
|
Mirasteel:In one breathe you claim sovereignty should be respected, in another the IRGC should take over Lebanon. Choose your morals. |
A country where the president is held accountable and forced to explain his actions. I wait for the supreme leader to grant an interview unscripted, or his protégé in arse-hole rock to follow suit. |
The IRGC should enjoy their moment. The World Cup will be over soon. How some people believe that the U.S. military is exhausted is laughable. And quit all the base BS. Most bases had nothing more than bunk-beds, hence no need for interceptors. The Lebanese president and prime minister has told the IRGC not to use them as bargaining chips. This forced matrimony is typical of extremists, same thing they do to their women. https://edition.cnn.com/2026/06/05/middleeast/lebanon-israel-hezbollah-peace-intl Hezbollah should go fight on Iranian soil and not From Lebanon.

NBC news… we can all go back to sleep. @OP I wish the US and Isreal can have major problems so the US gives up on Isreal and terrorist states that behead its citizens, honor killings women and hang teenagers with a crane can destroy them and America would have instant peace and the IRGC wouldn’t chant death to America anymore. And all of a sudden, extremist Muslims wouldn’t push for sharia laws in the west anymore, and the New York mayor wouldn’t allow praying in public, and Christians would have churches increase all over the Islamic world and all will be right with the world. Did i word your fantasy right? |
What burns for 30hours and doesn’t sink? Anyway, incidence and error reports are the corner stones to advancement in technology. |
Emu4life:This same mindset has left Nigeria in the dust in the committee of advancing nations. Iranians are hardworking and incredibly intelligent. Successful businessmen in the UK and US, where they have a street named in their honor. They’re not animals you provide with the basics and leave without ambitions. They have what it takes to be greater than Saudi Arabia and UAE combined but the regime channels most of their resources to fund a revolution they do not believe in. That’s the crux of the issue. What’s wrong if the minimum wage is $10k per month? Do not project your Stockholm syndrome on others. |
Tactical deception. Has always been Trumps strategy. Keep them guessing. Fear would drive the IRGCs economy to collapse as they continually invest in weapons at the expense of economic growth. In time a civil war would erupt. And let’s remind ourselves of 1 thing. The IRGC has a choice to be North Korea, minding its business in its evil coven. Not sponsoring resistance/islamic revolution across the region. |
There’s something Trump is waiting for, he doesn’t care about the ceasefire. His past antecedents have shown that he never takes the short end of the stick. One of my theories is, the culmination point, the IRGC getting so broke that they self ingest - attrition warfare. The CIA would reveal this in the future. |
While others see this as a weakness and a setback, this is what the rule of law entails. This is democracy at its finest. It takes a certainly level of eternal subservience to prefer Russia, China and the IRGC over the western governmental system. Where everyone has a voice. IRGC supporters know more about what’s happening in the US than in Iran and they call Trump the tyrant. They watch a leader and cleric seat kids and tell them to say death to certain people and when they’re old enough they should kill these people even if it costs them their lives. The US should know this truth, if their partners in the Middle East don’t feel secured they’ll move to Russia or China. And Russia would do a better job on Iran without batting an eye lid. And when this happens lazy American would be crying about more than the price of gas at the pump. Already, NVIDIA lost all its market share in China, and it’s fighting to retain its place globally.

Omotaday:Do you know how small Isreal is? If the IRGC was as successful as they claim, Isreal should be off the map today. Trump has/had a rare advantage that Putin did not have and that is the GCC, Iranians in diaspora, are in support of the attack on the IRGC. Isreal is willing to go all out. Their morale is high after their victory with Hamas. Any military personnel would tell you what Trump is doing kills morale. A weak IRGC gives the saudis easy victory over the Houthis. Nonetheless I have a feeling he has a joker up his sleeves. The extraction mission they had was more than what was aired, followed by his trip to China. We just have to wait and see how it all pans out. |
