They're both losing, do you know how much it cost the U S to stationed their troops in the Gulf daily.
The same way it didn’t cost them much to station troops in Afghanistan, Syria, and parts of North Africa without getting affected.

Oga don’t cry more than the bereaved. The US isn’t complaining to you. They have what it takes financially to fund a war for a long time. Infact only two countries presently have such economy and that is US and China.

North Korea is not just poor, it is a very poor country. Just because you can join some Nucleare elements together to make a Nuclear weapon doesn't mean that the country is doing well economically. Even their Nuclear missiles cannot fly beyond she shore of Japan
Bro I dnt think you understand, as at 2024 they had 50 war heads. You made mention of not firing pass Japan, the have inter continental ones
As at 2025 it will cost over 40 Billion dollars to build one small Nuclear power station not talk of weaponized one.You do realize they are just 25 million in population?

US is being sponsored by the gulf nations especially the Saudi crown price has single handedly sponsor this war, hence pumping villions of dollar to Trump. Dont pla, US is not that dump to keep sending trumps to starit without having a way to make their money back.

……and the US has suffered over $5,000,000,000 in losses, coupled with a crashing USD and decline in international reputation.



In addition, the US military industrial complex will NEVER recover from the humiliation, disgrace and rubbishing of their hardwares.

The whole world now knows Expensive does not translate to reliability and efficiency.

Let’s just say Iran redefined warfare!
I'll had agreed with you if you were Iranian or currently live in Iran. The honest truth is that, with kind of unprecedented infrastructural damage that Iran have faced, it'll be a miracle if they recover in 50 years....

The sad thing is that they went back to reopen the Straight

With the all the Temu and Russian air defence Iranian spent billions on dollars to purchase, yet could not protect their supreme leader and same billions were spent by Maduro to secure Caracas, yet American captured him like a common criminal. Leave sentiment apart, American hardwares still beat both Russian and Chinese hardware.

Stop mentioning how the leader of Iran was killed! It was a surprise attack and only cowards do that!

A gunshot from the back is cowardice——street code

No war declared and you pulled a fast one and still celebrate it? Was that in active war?

Forget the Russian and Chinese and tell us what the Iranian hardwares did!

The only time US aircraft carriers and destroyers fled a ACTIVE combat zone was against Iran!

No country has hit the US and Israel the way Iran did!

These are records never to be erased from history!

No matter how you feel, Iran could not protect their airspace, even I am not sure they can protect their ground space, if American could entered and rescue their Navigator, Iran is just like saddam hussein Iraq of 1990, He made more mouth than this, but baghdad fell fast.

You are 100% right, this is pure American Propaganda. The truth is that the insurers refuse to cover the costs for boats belonging to "unfriendly" nations because they will have to spend too much because of the risks. Some insurers even cancelled all contracts for vessels belonging to particular nations who are not friends with Iran. The result is that boats from "unfriendly nations" are crippled by the unaffordable high costs of the insurance that they can no longer afford to pay. The insurers do not want to lose money and they know that your vessels will be more at risk if you are not,"friend" with Iran so the insurers will categorically refuse to insure your vessels to avoid financial losts.
if it's propaganda Iran will debunk it stop typing epistle on another country matter and u leave Ur own

You are a citizen of a country that has access to all country that matters in the whole world ?🤣🤣
What does that have to do with this conversation sir? Who asked you? Well, I’m not doubting at all. I know you are saying the truth🤣 Online lowa my friend.
So you mean an average North Korean isn’t poor and the country is doing very well according to what you heard from the ones you once met in China and Brazil, right?🤣
You haven’t addressed any of the things I said, I asked and I’m asking again, why is the North Korean government the one giving its citizens the permission to travel abroad and why are their journeys abroad mostly state-sponsored. Also, why are you not traveling to this ‘beautiful and super wealthy country since you are a citizen of the country that has the strongest passport in the world?🤣

Bro, that's not correct.
USD has been rising since January, and sharply rose because of the war.

The USD is a Safe haven currency, more investors, strong economy, more power

A missile or drone launched from thousands of miles away killed their most important person and it's a surprise attack? From Thousands of miles away

What were the air defense for? What about the other leaders who were killed after, one by one, is it still a surprise to them.

Actually, China's economy was aided by the US during the time of President Bush.
Even President Xi said that last year.

Hello!

Seems you have a problem with Comprehension!

Was war declared during the sudden attack?

Let me orientate you as its glaring you could not afford gas or data at that time.

It was during negotiations! Iran had no reason to be protective while negotiating!

Move is a cowardice move! If you got a real street OG in your family, let them tell you!

Game demands you declare, before you stand over that body and rain clips!

Bro, go do your research. The US president George W. Bush signed a significant deal to help China's economy, that deal also help them to join world trade.

Funny thing is President Xi (China's President) said it last year at their Anniversary.


Plus USA is
Largest oil producers of oil
Largest in international Trade
Highest in agriculture, etc .

You can achieve that with $38 trillion in debt!

Now imagine if China was that indebted?

You said US invested in China? Were they threatened or forced to do such? They saw it has a thriving economy made possible by the Chinese!

Why haven’t they invested in Nigeria? They opted for cheap Labour, which they also benefited from. Exported their manufacturing and while theirs is already in shambles!

Chinese made China work! Stop making it look like they did them a Favour!

Chinese built the largest speed train network from proceeds, what did the US do? Fought wars!

The US does not even have a speed train! As a matter of fact! New York, Chicaga, Florida and Las Vegas cannot even stand at par with China’s 4th largest city!

You think it’s about bombs and printing money out of things air when they have slave like Africa who consumes it?

Richest my foot! They have so much overprinted that they can’t even print out their debt!

Debt already surpassed GDP 😂🤣😂🤣
