American is a joke, they have never win any war without the support of others.
Bad decision, badly executed
Yet they are the world's only super power, so how is this possible if they've never won any war alone? Think so you can see how senseless your comment is

The Iranians are “obviously negotiating very skillfully” and “clearly stronger than one thought,”Merz added.
He is clearly being clever by half.
It is the whole west that is humilating itself by launching an unprovoked war on Iran under the pretext that Iran is building nuclear weapon, same despicable format they used to destroy Iraq.

Nobody is stupid except those who fall for your deception.
The west did not attack Iran.

Us did.

You only support Iran because of religion. If the entire Iranian leadership were to renounce islam and revert to Christianity, you'd not think twice about withdrawing your support and transferring it to Israel should Israel switch to an islamic country. That's not being progressive. That is the trait of a fanatic hiding behind the veneer of progressiveness.


I support Iran no matter what. I have total disdain for Zionism, and I consider the current Zionist state of Israel as a farce. My support for Iran has nothing to do with religion. It's all about my ideology, which is anti western impreIiasm. I am a Christian. Most Christians won't lend their support to any country that stands against Israel and the US. But worse still are those who support anti US imperialism because of religion, but are too ashamed to admit the reason for their stance.

Ayatollah and scores of IRGC Commanders dead
Iran's naval fleet completely obliterarted
iran's Air force obliterated
US naval blockade on the Strait of Homuz is making Iran to lose 500million dollars per day
US does not use the strait of Homuz.

It is your BROKE country and foolish parents that caused your frustration. Bola Ahmed Tinubu is trying his best but the country’s revenue is only a tiny fraction of the budgeted expenditure.

Tinubu is human but he is not a magician.

Our population should nt be growing at all.
You lack good sense of reasoning otherwise you wouldn't have insulted someone's parent. Is it the 30k data monthly pay that has made you miserable and out of touch with reality ?

Logical! Never knew a woman in Nigeria can be this reasonable in analysing international geopolitics
That statement already reveals the problem, you’re surprised by logic because you attached it to gender in the first place.

Clear thinking is not a male trait or a female exception, it is simply the result of paying attention to facts, patterns, and incentives instead of emotions and bias.

If the analysis is solid, engage it on its merits. Anything else is distraction.

It is not as if Trump has had rosy relationships with other leaders. They won't be quick to forgive and forget the tariffs war. Now he expects them to help?
It ain't gonna happen. He finally bullied a stubborn kid and other victims are surreptitiously supporting the kid.

Either you like them or not. The Americans have done the whole world a great thing by reducing the Influence of the iraninas and their politically correct European leftist. When adolf Hitler came for them they chickened out. Now that Putin is coming for them they are already peeing in their pants . Same set of people look as demons are being raised
don't mind them. They have destroyed Africa. I still wonder why they pretend as if they are not aware that Iran sponsors terrorism

Sunnyshinylight:
This take is emotionally satisfying, but it is strategically shallow.

Calling the US “humiliated” because talks are stalling ignores how high-level geopolitics actually works. Stalemates are not signs of weakness by default, they are often deliberate pressure points. The US is not negotiating from desperation, it is negotiating from layered leverage, military, economic, and diplomatic.

Let’s break the reality:

- Iran is under sustained economic pressure, sanctions are still biting hard.
- Its currency instability and internal strain are not signs of a country “winning.”
- Engaging Russia is not strength, it is dependency shifting.

Now contrast that with the US:

- It controls the global financial system backbone.
- It has unmatched naval dominance, especially around critical routes like the Strait of Hormuz.
- Its alliances, even when noisy, still outweigh Iran’s network.

Germany complaining is not a fracture, it is normal alliance friction. Western partners disagree publicly all the time, but when it matters, they align structurally. That has been proven repeatedly.

Also, “talks stalling” does not mean the US is losing control. In many cases, it means the US is tightening conditions and refusing to concede. Diplomacy is not about speed, it is about outcome.

People keep making the same analytical mistake:
They confuse resistance with strength, and noise with power.

Iran resisting does not automatically mean it is dictating terms. It simply means it has fewer options and is stretching its position as far as possible.

If anything, prolonged negotiations favor the US more, because time amplifies economic pressure, not military theatrics.

So no, this is not humiliation.
This is strategic patience playing out in real time.
the usa moto of the bird says peace through strength

That is they were a world power that rules based on beating you to surrender or at worst beating you till you beg for peace

Apparently Iran is in no haste to beg for peace, America is the one tacoing, surrending via extending more deadline, and crying for meeting with Iran's that Iran is not desperate for

A nation that is begging for a deal as trophy to run out of the red sea which it's stuck in

Changes nothing! The Strait of Hormuz is still under blockade. The blockade they started has been effectively enforced by the US. Iran is losing revenues of hundreds of millions in dollars. If this continues for the next 2 weeks I'm afraid for the implosion that may happen within their country when they can't sustain their government. I hear they have submitted a revised, indirect proposal through Pakistani mediators to end the ongoing conflict. This is to tell you that they are feeling the heat from within and without.
Emotional response as usual. We sabi una well.

Like you know more than the German Chancellor sitting in a village in the east where light nor dey angry

IRGC is saying do any how see any how. Trump broke Obama's pact with Iran because of racism.

After trying to arrest Obama and failing you are now trying to destroy his works.

Big fallacy, if not strait of hormuz that iran is using as an leverage by now, iranian government would been overthrown
Let's flip it the other way. If not the huge oceans surrounding America it would have been destroyed for the longest.

Geography is a part of war and America has lost.
