These guys are just so embarrassing. Not only is it shameful to Americans ( position they’ve put us in), they’re also endangering our troops by their loose use of terms that don’t paint a true picture of what’s going on.

The term "obliterated" is being used too much lately...like how come you obliterate something 3 times a day and it still shows up huh

Words clearly mean whatever they want them to mean.
And their supporters just cheer them on.

Its a sign of an inferiority complex if you have to tell lies to random internet people

Lol @ trying to cover one lie with another.

You should go get checked out for your inability to not lie.
Your lies seem to get more and more grandiose every minute.
The problem is that your lies seem to become your reality and the basis for everything you believe.

I literally have never voted in person because we are always all over the place. It’s inconsiderably xtuepid to expect people to fly back to their home states for elections. Trump and his supporters have tilted the scale on absurdity.
Yup.
I probably go to the bank 2-3x a year everything else is done electronically.
We should be able to make it that easy for people to vote.
Wonder why Republicans don't want that.

Law enforcement officers have to do their job their job to keep law abiding citizens safe

How can one person be arrested 10 times

That's the type of person who inflate crime stats for black people

The times police have stopped me, they only gave me a ticket and I was on my way in a few minutes didn't even leave my car
They never had to lie me on concrete like career criminals
I guess Black Republican Tim Scott is a career criminal.

“In the course of one year, I’ve been stopped seven times by law enforcement,” Scott said. “Not four, not five, not six, but seven times in one year as an elected official.”

Yes, lived that double life.

Oga, you are broken.
A cop will pull you over, make you prostrate on the cement, look at you while "patting down" (feel. ing up) your wife while licking his lips at you and you'd say thank you for his service and shake his hand.

You know when that happens they will have a reason to blame the president. They do not have any coherent policy besides to block everything Trump does

It's like a patient who doesnt want to use the doctors prescription so he can blame the doctor for not getting well
Except Trump was the one who basically fired the old DHS head, Noem.
If it were working as swimmingly as you think why did that happen?

Democrats are doing what Republicans won't, using the check they have (funding) to sop the abuses at ICE.
You seem to be even nuttier than Trump and think ICE killing American citizens protesting is A-ok.
Maybe you should direct some of that faux-concern you have about people in Iran being gunned down while peacefully protesting to the US.

Barely? Let me tell you why this is not accurate. Because the actual cost of the war is being suppressed by The Clown King, his entire administration, including Centcom.


The AN/FPS-132 early warning radar system stationed at the Al Udeid base in Qaatar valued at over $1bn is destroyed. This is the principal early warning missile system as part of the layered system that protects the entire middle east. At a replacement duration of nearly 10 years and cost upwards of 1bn dollars, it is already a huge doubt if that base will ever come alive again.


On top of this, the Iranians have destroyed 2 x AN/GSC-52B SATCOM terminals on the Fifth Fleet US Naval Base in Bahrain and cleared the entire Fifth fleet base. The USS Ford and its entire carrier strike group had to retreat, and are now looking to reload at Indian bases.


The Iranians also destroyed 4 x AN/TPY-2 Terminal High Altitude Area Defence (THAAD) Battery and Missile defence systems in the UAE. To put things in perspective, the US has only 10 of these things stationed around the world. Only 10. It's so bad, the US is now looking to move THAAD systems from Korea.

Just so you know, the delivery duration by Raytheon for one THAAD system is 3 years. To put things in perspective, the first of 7 to have been delivered to Saudi was delivered only in 2024. Raytheon has not communicated delivery of the remaining 6 units. The combined costs of those 7 units........$2.3bn.



Iran has shot down about 12 x MQ-9 reaper drones in only 3 weeks. There's only 250 made by General Atomics. General Atomics stopped making these. They can never be replaced . These things cost $30m a piece.



Iran has shot down 4 x F-15 and 1 x F-35 fighter jets, despite what CENTCOM says. It doesn't look good for the US to admit that 4 fighter jets were downed by Iran, especially as the F-35 is sold as "stealth"..... It puts the entire western Military alliance is a state bewilderment. Each F-35 is $83m. It takes about 18months to have one delivered.



Iran shot down 1 x KC-135 and destroyed minimum 5 x KC-135 Stratotankers at the Prince Sultan Air base in Saudi. Price per unit, modern adjusted value - $80m per unit. KC135s are EOL. They can never be replaced.





Iran has systematically exploited a supply vulnerability in the US' and Israel's missile defense systems by launching in waves, using a combination of drones, missiles and hypersonic missiles in each wave. It's public data that the US had only ever received delivery of 920 missiles from Lockheed Martin.....Ever! The Patriot, THAAD, Arrow, David Sling, and Iron Dome systems all require multiple missile launches per instance, to achieve 92% success rate at neutralising a single inbound projectile. As a result, it's only a matter of time. The US and Israel will run out of Air Defence capability.

Maximum Production capacity for these missiles, at least for the THAAD and Patriot Systems, is 92 and a paltry 600 respectively, a year !!!!
The US is looking to quadruple production rates, but Lockheed Martin is saying it will take about 7 years to reach those increased numbers. 7 years ! I am not making this up, this is unclassified, publicly available data.


Now answer honestly, do you really think based on this, Iran has not done significant damage to the US' military? The only difference is that it is not fought on US soil, and so much of this information is bare from being shared on MSM.

The US can see that this war must not run on for months, or else it will spread itself seriously thin, and become a paper tiger overnight. This is why wise heads are prevailing and urging Trump to wind this down quickly. Shock and Awe has not worked against the Iranians. People like us have always known that.



By the way, all the while, the US is aware that they have barely touched Iran's underground infrastructure. The US is also aware that not only do the Iranians have a stockpile of missiles, drones, hypersonic missiles, and now ICBMs with range over 4000km, they are aware that Shahed drones are being manufactured in China with industrial replacement capacity of several thousands a month, compared to unit scales of the US.


I have not even talked about the geopolitical and economic exploitation of the US.


I tell you, it is elite. Save for dropping nuclear bombs on Iran, the Iranians will outlast the US in this war and cause significant military damage to the US, despite it being fought on Iranian soil.... Everything you see up here was meticulously planned for years.
I know the weapons systems that have been lost.
Still not denting the US in terms of its projection of power.

Iranians may outlast the US, because the US doesn't have the appetite for war, especially the type of war fighting in Iran would take including how devastating it would be for the Global economy.

Let the silly people with no working brains continue to think everything is by gragra. As if they’re more patriotic than us.

Look how embarrassed America is now
Patriotism is loving your country enough that you check your emotions and hate for colored people and women so you don't vote for a narcissistic psychopath like Trump.

It is elite.... even if only just. I can count on my fingers the number of nations in the world that can stand up to the military might of Israel and the US simultaneously.

There are not many countries in the world that can, under US and Israel bombardment, still manage to

1. Wipe multiple US bases off the map over several countries,
2. Degrade America's capability to wage war by destroying early-warning radar systems over half the continent,
3. Shoot down US reaper drones and now F35s,
4. Reduce all GCC countries to puppets and sitting ducks,
5. Strangle and threaten the US' entire carrier strike fleet, forcing them to fall behind Iranian missile attack range.
6. Threaten US economic stability by attacking the very anchor of the petro-dollar......
7. Force Israel and the US to beg for military assistance from other countries.
7. Manage to reverse decades of economic sanctions during the war.......

....all at a fraction of cost it would take the US to do the same.

This is elite.



On the subject of Nuclear weapons, I don't like it either. I am nonproliferation to the core. But in the face of tyranny, nothing beats deterrence like Mutually Assured Destruction. If they don't get the bomb, the US, the Israel lobby within it, and Israel itself will never stop.

If Israel will not even admit having nuclear weapons and submit to the NPT, then even Nigeria should get one of they can.
The question is what was Israel's goal (I don't think the US had one)?
I think their goal was to set back/stop Iran's development while Israel continues to do so.
It's the same concept they employ with Gaza.
In that Israel has won.

I understand your perspective, but still not elite.
Iran has a lot of military infrastructure that will be expensive and take time to redevelop, and they have barely done any damage to the US military. They may have some hidden away, but still.
They do have leverage and a strategy of making it economically painful that Trump and co didn't sufficiently think through (I don't think Israel cared. They'll burn down the world if it meant they keep their land). But that leverage doesn't make them elite.

The King Clown! I just dey laugh.

When I told them they were in for a rude awakening, subject clowns said it was false prophecy.

I told them the restraint from Iran for decades was championed by the same guy they went to kill.

In just over 3 weeks Iran has brokered its way into elite status, emerged as a proper super power in the ME; totally flipping the economics of war, whilst strategically and systematically dismantling the US, its image, status and allies across the ME. The Fox News folks filled their heads and minds with one-sided stories.

So many things to unpack..... as I predicted would happen.....

Now, THEY WILL get that bomb, and save for dropping a nuclear bomb on Iran, the combined agency of Israel and the "almighty" US can do ph.ouck.all about it.
Trump is an absolute clown. And an embarrassment as an American President.
Everyone who voted for him should feel ashamed, but they won't.

I'm not sure Iran is elite, but they do have leverage which makes them a power.
They have shown why every other President was right to choose the path of diplomacy.
Until the US gets serious about renewable energy, Iran will always have us by the balls.
But the US is also beholden to the oil and gas companies so not sure how we square that circle.

As a Nigerian American I would prefer no other country have nuclear weapons but the US.
But it is hard to dictate to other countries that they can't have Nuclear weapons when you have one and Israel does as well.
We have to get serious as well about nonproliferation treaties.

I don’t click on links they post here. I wish people would be more careful with these lots.

There’s something to be said for anyone who doesn’t have any vested interest in a particular issue spending their lifetime on the internet discussing said issue.

First rule of safety; beware the unusual element. And this is very unusual.

I think anyone with common sense would be puzzled if I spent my whole day on the internet day after day discussing the politics of South Africa.

I don’t know why it’s not ringing the same bell when these randos are spending their waking and sleeping hours on American politics. I get that it has international relevance. However, they are not the only ones who are interested.

Yet, everyone else who is interested manages to conduct themselves in a manner that doesn’t raise questions about what’s in it for them.

My spidey senses have not led me astray yet.

Ur clearly a member of fraud.inc. With obviously some incentive to push this story that you are in the US.
Nowhere in the post does it say that you are in Seattle.
Nowhere in the post does it say you two are meeting up in Seattle. Which is very odd for someone coming to ur city.
And I travel a lot.
You posted some random Whatsapp convo that could be edited (you've edited your posts before).
But even the unedited version doesn't sound like you are in Seattle but that she will be in Seattle at some point.

You can post a personal WhatsApp conversation, but when posting pictures of your pretend car, block out the license plate, even the place the license place was issued even though you tell people(pretend) you live in Seattle.
And in all the years you say you have been in Seattle, you have never posted a picture that is not of Canada.
Would any of that make sense to anyone outside of Basilico?

And you've tried this before. You posted a picture of a conversation which ended up blowing up your story even more.
You claimed here you left Nigeria in 2024, yet in that convo you told the person you left Nigeria in 2021.
You seem to tell different versions of your "I left Nigeria" story to different people.
It seems obvious pretending to live in the US has a financial benefit for you. Or even worse just an emotional one.
