I’m not advocating for the Iranians; what I fail to see is how this current action against them will soften their stance or stop them from chanting death to America. If anything, this will likely radicalise them further and make them more determined to acquire nuclear weapons, that’s if they don’t already have them. As a matter of fact, since the US started interfering in other countries’ affairs and overthrowing leaders they don’t agree with, the world hasn’t exactly become any safer, and I don’t see that changing in this case.

I would also argue that, with the enormous debt you guys currently have, that money would be better spent investing in your country and the citizens, but what do I know. Make dem sha end the war make we for rest.
Someone is dedicated to your death and destruction based on some ideology. What will you do about them? Appeasement will never work. Just like Nigerians are finding out about Boko Haram that Appeasement do not work.

Why cant Iran be normal like other and just live and let live, why must it be death to America

When Obama did the Appeasement method by giving them money they just used the money to sponsor Hezbollah Hamas and Houthi to make their region and the world unsafe especially for Americans

Do you think they should have appeased Hitler in Germany or Milosevic in Kosovo so we dont make them upset

The debt and economy only matters when you are safe. If Iran achieves their ambition will any economy matter at that point? If one Iran nuclear bomb drops in America today will the debt and economy matter

Kirk questioned the qualifications and competency of Michelle and the Judge implying they were DEI beneficiaries which could have potentially harmed their careers and financial wellbeing. Mind you this was unprovoked dragging that they didn't do anything to deserve from Kirk.

Mueller on the other hand rightly questioned the link that Trump had with Russia which is a potential national security issue.

Nobody is saying that Trump should deliver an eulogy at the man's funeral but will a dignified silence kill anyone?

Anyways Trump has sent the precedence so no one should cry about how Dem/Libs are sick, retarded blah blah blah if someone decides metaphorically and literally to piss on his grave.

Donald Trump must find a way to cut short his ill-considered conflict with Iran

A war without a strategy

IT IS RARE for one head of government to order the death of another. Yet on February 28th America’s president and Isra-el’s prime minister did just that, killing Iran’s 86-year-old su-preme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The decapitation of the Iranian regime reflects the devastating operational success of “Operation Epic Fury”. But Mr Khamenei’s place was immedi-ately taken by a triumvirate. The next supreme leader could be named soon—perhaps his own son unless he, too, is killed. That augurs something more subtle and worrying: that the op-
eration is failing to achieve its political goals.


It is naive to say, as some of Mr Trump’s cheerleaders do,that because Mr Khamenei was wicked (and he surely was), any sort of war makes sense. When you command a machine as lethal and overwhelming as America’s armed forces, united in this operation with the battle-hardened Israel Defence Forc-es, you have a special responsibility to define what you want to achieve. That is not only an ethical requirement; it is a practi-cal one, too. War aims direct the campaign; they define the sacrifices the state imposes on its own people and the enemy; and they determine when the fighting should end.In this war, Israel’s aim is clear: to demolish the threat posed by Iran’s regime.

By contrast, Mr Trump and his cabinet have offered a mess of shifting assertions—about Iran’s mis-siles, nuclear weapons, regime change, follow-ing Israel’s lead, a “feeling” Iran was about to attack and settling scores after decades of en-mity. Politically, vagueness gives Mr Trump
room for manoeuvre (see Lexington). Strategi-cally, his failure to say what Epic Fury is for is its biggest vulnerability
(see Briefing).
The result is a split-personality war. One face is operational. America and Israel have destroyed Iran’s navy and grounded its air force. They are
wrecking its missile capability and its arms industry and tar-geting the regime and its brutal enforcers. Dominance of the skies means that America and Israel can fight on at will. Inter-ceptor missiles are meanwhile defending bases and cities in Is-rael and the Gulf countries, even as Iran strikes at more targets than it did during the conflict last June. So far, at least, there are enough interceptors to keep going.

The other face of this war is political, and it emerges from Iran’s strategy, which is about sowing doubt and confusion. To survive would count as victory for Iran’s regime. So far, it is suc-ceeding. Far from falling apart, it is rushing to escalate hori-zontally—a fancy way of saying it is lashing out in all direc-tions. This has a number of consequences.One is that other countries are being sucked in. Iran has at-tacked the Gulf states, which have bet their future on being ha-vens from the chaos gripping the rest of the Middle East. Fighting has also erupted in Lebanon as Israel smashes Hiz-bullah, Iran’s main proxy. France and Britain will defend their bases from attack. On March 4th NATO air defences shot down an Iranian missile bound for Turkey.Another consequence is economic (see Finance & econom-ics section). Iran has tried to shut the Strait of Hormuz, cutting off perhaps 20% of global oil supplies. It has also struck energy infrastructure, including the world’s biggest gas-liquefaction complex and Saudi Arabia’s largest refinery. The price of Brent crude is up by 14% since February 27th, to $83 a barrel. A mega-
watt-hour of natural gas in Europe costs €54 ($63), over 70% more than last week. As Asian buyers scramble for supplies,
prices could go higher. The global economy could yet suffer a hit. If oil reaches $100 a barrel, GDP growth could be lowered by 0.4 percentage points and inflation raised by 1.2 points.The third potential consequence is chaos inside Iran. Roughly 40% of its 90m people belong to ethnic minorities, in-cluding Arabs, Azeris, Baluchis, Kurds and Lurs. The Arab spring showed how countries can fall apart. America and Israel are putting pressure on the regime by backing Kurdish insur-gents—a reckless idea that could end up stoking Persian na-tionalism or civil war. Mr Trump may not care about this, but he could not ignore the effects spilling over Iran’s borders into the Gulf states, Iraq, Syria and Turkey.The risk is that Mr Trump cannot bear to quit so long as the markets and polls deny him the acclamation he craves—andt hat may last for as long as Iran can release even sporadic mis-siles and drones. Today barely a third of Americans favour the battle in Iran (90% backed invading Afghanistan in 2001).

America may be an energy exporter, but its voters detest costly petrol. He may be tempted to seek an undeniable win by bombing the re-gime out of existence. But even with America’s military clout, he might not succeed. Mean-while all those risks would continue to harm the region and the world economy. Mr Trump would do better to narrow his war aims. His goal should be to degrade Iran’s military capabilities and then stop. He is almost there.Some will argue that the job would be only half-done. Obvi-ously, leaving the regime as a wounded beast would be heart-break for the oppressed Iranian people. Even if Mr Trump wants peace, Iran could continue to lash out for a while, at least, revelling in its status as a symbol of anti-American resis-tance. The surviving regime may reject a nuclear deal—indeed, like North Korea, it may think a bomb is its only protection. If it rebuilds its nuclear programme, Mr Trump may have to strike again in months’ or years’ time. It is a bleak prospect. But it would be better for America to declare victory early than limp out of an unpopular war because of exhaustion.

Less fury, more forethought

These are the fruits of Mr Trump’s impulsive approach. Before this war, Iran’s regime was weaker than at any time in its 47-year history: it could have fallen without a single American bomb. Mr Trump may get lucky, but he is more likely to end up having to deal with regional chaos or a new hardliner. Sur-rounded by sycophantic courtiers, Mr Trump has become rash in his second term. His opportunistic grabs for power when-ever he sees weakness are dangerous. America needs a strategy in Iran, just as it needs one in the world. ■
The Economist March 21st 2026



Operation Blind Fury
The reckless campaign against Iran will weaken America’s president. That will make him angry


NEVER BET against Donald Trump. No politician can defy political gravity like the man whose supporters stormed the Capitol on January 6th 2021, only for him to be re-elected in 2024 with a bigger share of the vote. And yet it is hard to imag-ine a crisis more precisely engineered to intercept the trajecto-ry of his presidency than his ill-judged, heedless war against Iran. Even a short war will alter the course of his second term. One that lasts months could bring it crashing to earth.The reason is that the fight against Iran diminishes Mr Trump’s three political superpowers: his ability to impose his own reality on the world, his remorseless use of leverage and his dominion over the Republican Party. Even without Iran, the potency of these Trumpian strengths was likely to wane after the midterm elections. Wars accelerate change.Start with Trump v Reality. In politics, the president has shown a remarkable ability to twist facts and, sure enough, he insists that he has already triumphed in Iran. Yet the war tells a truth of its own. Iran’s regime cannot win in any conventional sense. But despite widespread destruction of infrastructure and the assassinations of senior leaders—including the securi-ty chief, Ali Larijani—Iran’s regime survives for now and its 400kg or so of near-bomb-ready uranium remains at large. What is more, Iran is waging its own parallel war against the global energy industry. As it strikes ship-ping in the Strait of Hormuz and the infra-structure of its neighbours, the markets are keeping score. With Brent crude spiking to more than $110 a barrel on March 18th, following an Iranian missile attack on a Qatari natu-ral-gas hub, the regime will conclude that its strategy is working.


If anything, time is on Iran’s side. America and Israel will gradually run out of useful targets to strike from the air, or run low on interceptor batteries to see off Iranian weapons. By contrast, Iran appears still to have plenty of drones. For as long as it restricts traffic in the strait, oil prices will climb and the damage to the world economy will grow.

Mr Trump’s second superpower is leverage. Now that other countries’ leaders have come to expect rough treatment, they are learning how to resist. When the president called on Amer-ica’s allies to help open the strait, warning that NATO faced a “very bad” future if they refused, they turned him down. He quickly reversed course, pretending he had never needed help. Likewise, Iran is opposing Mr Trump by accumulating le-verage against him. In recent days it has signalled that it will grant safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz to ships from friendly countries—a sign that it means to use access as a bar-gaining tool.

Even if Mr Trump wants to end the war, Iran could continue to fire at ships. If the waterway remains closed until the end of April, the oil price could reach $150 a barrel.Given that leverage, Iran may hold out for more than just a return to the status quo before the war. It may ask for sanctions to be lifted, or an American commitment to abandon some bases in the Middle East or to restrain Israel. If recession looms in America and stock markets start to fall, would Mr Trump escalate by, say, seizing Kharg island, home to Iran’s ex-port terminals? Or would he buckle?

The answer depends partly on the last of his powers: his hold on his party. Mr Trump was elected on promises to spare voters from war and inflation. So far, 13 American service per-sonnel have died; ground operations inside Iran, to recover that uranium, or on Kharg would put many more in danger. Av-erage prices of petrol and diesel have reached $3.88 and $5.09 a gallon, compared with $3.11 and $3.72 at Mr Trump’s inaugu-ration. Republican support for the war is strong, but softening. A vocal faction of MAGA, notably Tucker Carlson (interviewed on “The Insider”, our video show, this week), talks of betrayal.

In private many elected Republicans are seething (see Un-ited States section). M[b]r Trump’s failure to heed warnings about the Strait of Hormuz is typical of his contempt for strategy and his hubris in thinking he knows better than people who really do.[/b] Republicans are now highly likely to lose control of the House in the midterm elections in November. Their chances of losing the Senate too have risen by ten points, to about 50%. The worse the defeat, the lamer a duck the president will be and the less influence he will have over who inherits the party.Were the war to drag on, leading to very high oil prices and tumbling stockmarkets, Mr Trump could seek a way out and look for a win somewhere else—in, say, Cuba.

Markets would doubtless register relief if the fighting stopped. But Mr Trump is not in full control of this war. Iran’s attack on the gas hub in Qatar shows it still has cards to play. And even if the fighting ended tomorrow it could take four to six weeks to restore oil produc-tion, four to eight weeks to settle oil markets and two months to normalise shipping. The risk of renewed Iranian action would remain. Prices may stay high for months. Every day they do weakens the president.
Mr Trump’s politics depends on the strength that comes from winning. If he seems a loser, expect him to exact retribution. A weaker president could become a more dangerous one.


Tanking

Mr Trump is freest to act abroad. He may abandon NATO. He may cut Ukraine loose to punish Europe. He could bully Latin America in the name of fighting crime and drugs. He may demand money for defending Japan and South Korea. He will be maximalist on tariffs. Even if he does not succeed, that will further erode America’s alliances, to the glee of China and Russia.

But Mr Trump is also liable to lash out at home. He has al-ready endorsed the idea of withholding broadcasting licences from media outlets that criticise the war. He wants the Federal Reserve to slash rates, but his war makes that less likely—expect further clashes with the central bank. He could target perceived enemies or send immigration agents to more Democratic-run cities. He could threaten to meddle in the midterms, either as theatre to rile his opponents, or because he intends to influence the results. It is hard to see how Mr Trump ends up a winner in Iran. Be warned: he makes a very bad loser. ■

Point to one country where US bombing has made things better, or made the US and the world safer.

By the way, there’s no better person to speak on this war than the former U.S. National Counterterrorism Center Director, Joe Kent.

As seen on X, here’s what he had to say: ‘I will not, in good conscience, send young men and women off to die on foreign battlefields… We’re at a critical juncture in the war in Iran; we need to let our leaders hear that we do not support this war.

US bombing in Kosovo made the region better and made the world safer

I believe a reevaluation of all that has been going on for a while now and this war might be the final straw

A compromised ally is worse than an opp. So when you have an EU that is more aligned and scared of offending terrorist regimes then truthfully speaking all bets are off

As it stands the gulf states are more useful to America than the EU. All you listed is fantastic in theory but for today 2026 the EU is mostly a recurring bill. They're even more in line with Jihadi and terrorist sympathizers than the gulf states.
Lol.. The US will always need the EU.
While I respect the military might of the US, let's not forget the EU can also decide to not do business with the US.
It's the same way Canada is beginning to call bullshit on the US.

Let them google "Maths is rãcist". The same crãzy people began positing Mathematics is a racial construct used to perpetuate inequality, and only racîsts insist students study mathematics.

In some Leftist enclave, they made mathematics optional in some pre and post-primary schools, and insist students must be able to gain admission without any mathematics background.

These are the people Charlie was attacking. Some of them never heard about Charlie until his déath, but some of us have been following him since 2017/2018 because of his friendship with Candace Owens (when she was coming up). That was the period in 2018 Kanye tweeted "I like how Candace Owens thinks".

Charlie raised a lot of Black voices and helped integrate the Alphabet people into the Right. He was always campaigning for churches to be accommodative of people regardless of their sexual leanings.

Charlie was more liberal in ideas than most of us on this thread. His many videos and posts on X are proof. More liberal than me even.

Here was Charlie in 2020 campaigning against selective teaching of Maths, insisting not teaching Maths to Black kids under the guise of it being racist is actually racist because Maths is logical and the knowledge of it is how Black people can be empowered:

This is the man you people call racist?

Stop watching CNN if you want to be really knowledgeable about world issues. Avoid CBS too!

Let them google "Maths is rãcist". The same crãzy people began positing Mathematics is a racial construct used to perpetuate inequality and only racîsts insist students offer mathematics.

In some Leftist enclave, they made mathematics optional in some high school and insist students must be able to gain admission without any mathematics background.

These are the people Charlie was attacking. Some of them never heard about Charlie until his déath, but some of us have been following him since 2017/2018 because of hai friendship with Candace Owens (when she was coming up). That was the period in 2018 Kanye tweeted "I like how Candace Owens thinks".

Charlie raised a lot of Black voices and helped integrate the Alphabet people into the Right. He was always campaigning for churches to be accommodative of people regardless of their sexual leanings.

Charlie was more liberal in ideas than most of us on this thread. His many videos and posts on X are proof. More liberal than me.

Charlie was definitely a potential president without a doubt. He is irreplaceable, no wonder the coalition he managed to bring together is falling apart and fighting dirty amongst themselves currently.

I don't think he is a liberal fundamentally, he's an evangelical Christian conservative to the core and he wears that as a big badge of honour. However since his work is political and not just spiritual, he has to accommodate many people of different backgrounds and ideologies but with a common enemy which is the left. As far as you're a conservative, he'll embrace you and welcome you to the movement but when you hear him talk on spiritual and moral issues, you'll hear and see his real convictions.

The left really had no answer for him because of how effective he was and that was why he was taken out. I don't think anyone was more instrumental in getting Trump re-elected than him.

"Maths is rãcist." These are the people you support? These are the people Charlie criticized.

Even in Australia, the Woke Left spread their ideologh there that Maths is rãcist so forced university to teach watered-down Mathematics.

Just videos alone.

Google to find articles by top organisations championing the màdnéss that Maths is rãcist.

You'll never read/watch CNN show you these crãzy comments but go ahead, believe Charlie Kirk whom you only heard about few hours after he dîed is a rácist – same Charlie who was calling out these cràzies and willing to debate them...on campuses.

Its what liberals do best. Its called bigotry of low expectations. A.k.a we know you guys are not as smart to compete with others so let's lower the standards to accommodate you, So that I will look good

This is something I think black people should kick against. Dont lower your criteria to accommodate me simply give me the opportunity.

E.g when Biden was to pick Ketanji Jackson he said I will pick a black woman. Why didnt he say I will pick the best American. Then we see that oh its a black woman. But Biden has already qualified Ketanjis appointment to be a DEI when its possible that Ketanji was actually a smart woman who bested other men white or colored, bested other women whites and minorities to get to where she is but Biden and the left already told you she got picked because of her gender and race

This things permeate and make people start doubting your abilities. Thats when If you go to a hospital for a crucial surgery and see Dr Adamu maybe your mind might start wondering dont they have like a Doctor Emeka or Dr Onos instead of this Adamu who we no know how he take be doctor

From your example of those who got admitted without passing Maths or they waived SAT for. Because they think Maths is racist. They didnt waive Maths for everyone its just for these Neanderthals who cant understand Maths. If their colleagues start looking at them as quota system candidates do you think that helps them? Especially the ones who would have dusted the exams easily are all bunched together. Now if they graduate won't they be viewed as those who got Maths waivers and employers discriminate against them, even if they are forced to employ them maybe they will just keep them in a quota system position and not business critical because we know they were helped to get here

It happens in Nigeria to Northerners even some of us Dundee southerners will look down on every Northerner and assume we are smarter.
