QuinQ:Stop deceiving yourself. Iran has won this war strategically. No defence systems yet America's planes are going down at an alarming rate in the middle East. Right now, US has ran out of interceptors such that they are now force to relocate the South Korea defense system into the middle East. This is not Libya or Venezuela or Syira. This is the Islamic Republic of Iran. Hegseth has changed the US war plan 5 times in 10 days! This is a strategic defeat. All their military bases and assets in the middle East are being ripped apart by cheap Iranian drones worth less than $10k. So what exactly is the essence of any country signing a defense pact with the American if they can't even protect their own military bases? America deployed one-third of their naval assets into the middle East for this war yet a country with no so called air and naval defense system is still able to block the strait of Hormuz. It seems to me that we are really joking. Despite over 47 years of sanctions, Iran has achieved great things with little. |

11doubledee:Do you know how much oil Iran produces? That country is nowhere near a poor country. Food is not their problem. They have one of the biggest drone production in the world that they even donated to Russia. At the moment, there is zero military uprising within Iran. The West thought that by now Kurdish militias in some border lands will rise up but the Kurds have learnt from the US/Iraq war. The only solution to this war is for the West to sue for peace. Trump is sounding foolish as the day goes by saying Iranian military is obliterated then still warns Iran not to use their military. At the moment, 5000 marines have been dispatched to Iran and many may not go back home. The only solution right now is to call for peace and end to aggression on all sides. The more it goes on, it won't favour the US most especially. This war will cost republicans badly in the next election. |

saddler:Who are the terrorists sef ?Is it the Iranian army defending the nation against aggressors or what ? Because i dont really understand, colonialism is a disease i swear, All what the US under Donald Trump is doing to Iran, the US itself cant accept such bullshit. That is why i see it as a needless and unjust war. You dont attack a country in the middle of negotiations, that is Pearl harbour episode 2. I pray to you God Almighty, in this life and in the one to come, never give me the chance to ever be a western imperialist asslicker. |

Sundaymessi:Do you know what iis defence? It is ENTIRELY up to US when and how to hit Iran. Any restraint is from within US itself not because of Iran. See circled below. What has Iran done since US obliterated the island? If this were a boxing match the referee would have since stopped the fight

QuinQ:Iran has natural resources so you can't say it is gone. The war will teach US future leaders who may want to tow the path of arrogance and impunity like Trump that wars are not won by brute force but by strategy and ingenuity . The US should just pray before the end of Trump era he does not create too much enemies that will eventually lead to the end of the empire like Genghis Khan. This is a president who talks to leaders of allied nations anyhow yet you expect them to rally support for you when fighting an unjust and needless war . |

have.been following war now since the killing by hanging of sadam Hussein,they are not what will they they are,they can not win a war alone except they go with 10 to 20 countries I mean nato,but Trump believes they are better without Allie that do destroy things together. madridguy: |

It's getting serious beyond the expectations of aggressors, let's watch as events unfolding on this conflict. |

Iran aiming at ships in the Strait is the equivalent of a deadly sniper you can't see. The fear is demoralising. No one wants to be next to get killed In this scenario, no ship wants to be next. |
| Re: The Only Thing Prohibiting Transit In Hormuz Is Iran Shooting At Ships - Hegseth by dappydozzy(m): 6:45pm On Mar 14 |
madridguy:Dont mind them. They couldn't stop the Houthis in the Red Sea, so it is Strait of Hormuz where you would stop Iran. Even naval ships escorting oil tankers is suicidal, while passing through a narrow waterway. The US go learn in a hard way, meanwhile i am expecting them to do father christmas with billion barrels oil reserves. |

rumors has it that Natayahu was killed in Tuesday missiles attack along with brother and Mossad director,but is becoming true,no tweet for him which is unused from him. ChiefOloye: |

OnionBandit:The Iran won was won the very day the Grand father of all the terrorist organizations in the world 🌍 was slaughtered like a common criminal. Iran is just trying to lose in honour. Even their new supreme Leader is not even supreme. He is half human being. Iran is a drowning man they don't want to drown alone. |

Magnetic010:Don't get it twisted. IRAN was sending everybody, until US ( Trump actually) goaded by Isreal (Netanyahu actually) decided to stop sending them. It is now that they don't send anybody. At least, not anybody that supports US and Israel. |

jaxxy:What they are shooting doesn't really matter here as long as it inflicts damage, we are talking about oil vessels and tankers here. They will explode easily. US don buy market really. Even all the US aircraft carriers are in international waters, nothing near Strait of Hormuz, the Strait is no go area. |

HacheNoire:You guyz don’t have sense. Is America fighting Iran or for a regime change? If America is fighting Iran it won’t take them 2weeks to completely wipeout every living souls there. But they are not after Iran but the regime. That why they said they must be involve in who rule Iran. |

DeepSight:Saudi is an host to an aggressor making it a target, especially military bases.These military bases geographically surround Iran which justifies why Iran is attacking them especially in Wartime like this . What would an American be doing inside Kabba for Iran to consider it a target, will that American be a diplomat or a soldier or what ? And what will be the mission of such at Kabba ? |

Danisaint112:Over hyping in progress Israel were only striking those without means of retaliation, those who can't manufacture their weapon Iran is totally different from anything they engaged in A country under sanction since 1979, believed in themselves and ventured into weapons production to secure their land? Give honour when you witness such courage. PM of Israel is dead already with his war generals and intelligence officer and some ministers Persia isn't by word of mouth US air tanker refuelling aircraft destroyed in Saudi Arabia airbase Iran should take their flowers, I didn't expect they withstand this far with all arrogant speeches from US and Israel leaders? Truly is not by weapons but dedication to service NB: Deluded ones will tell us they fighting for regime change and not at war with Iran. They already humbled is expected they switch narrative So much for US-Israel the deluded ones were saying they will teach Russia how to perpuate war. With their narrative of after two days Iran is toast to a new beginning They never seen anything |

FunnyDude:Most countries know it before that they are being fleeced by their Military industrial complex and that the cost of running their wars is expensive, that is why Iran went into local production of cheap drones but effective and deadly, mass production of missiles to run out patriot and THAAD interceptors. Everyday, the cost of the war keeps piling up for the US. The day, China finally takes over the Island of Taiwan, that day wont be funny at all. Even all these Patriot , Iron Dome and THAAD defense systems na wash, barrages of hypersonic missiles carrying cluster warheads will penetrate these systems and deliver massive damage and destruction on targets. The US needs to upgrade miltarily as quick as possible else gobe dey smell. What is preventing other countries from confronting US is because of the 30 nation NATO alliance. Not because of their military armaments. They dont even have the largest navy in the world, China has the largest . |

HacheNoire:Says people who repeatedly said Iran have destroyed the US warplane carrier 4times, killed Nathanyanhu 10times starting from last year 12 days war, destroyed Israel and Tel Aviv 1000000times and yet planes keep flying from the US warplane carrier, the dead Nathanyanhu keep resurrecting, and Israel and Tel Aviv still looks beautiful before the 12 days war and after the 12 days war uptil now. Is it the same set of brain dead cells I will now believe. You people have never get one single fact right so how would people take you guys serious. Tomorrow now you people will now propagate yet another one that trump has been killed by Iran missiles. Bunch of confused terrorists |
