Go to Iran and see for yourself how the humanitarian situation got worse and China had to help them out with food and medical relief.

Terrorists will converge here now but keep mute on police brutality in their backyard.

Meanwhile the US will make much more than that but they won't publish that

What a waste.
The taxpayer must be livid.
For what is all this cost when there is nothing to show for it. Absolutely nothing.

That’s one country with stupid thirst for war.

Re: Iran War Has Cost The U.S. $25 Billion So Far, Pentagon Official Says by CSTRR: 4:59pm On Apr 30

As long as the US can still print domestically the international currency of trade, then anybody fighting them in a hot war is engaging in a fool's errand.

See the way they burnt through $25billion like it's nothing. They won't even feel it, as they can just print more money and export the inflation to the rest of the world through the petrodollar system.

The only way to defeat the US is to create an alternative international currency. In such a scenario, they would think twice before engaging in needless wars, and pete hegseth won't be as arrogant as he currently is.

China is smart enough to know it, which is why they won't ever engage in a hot war with America.

They really met a stumbling block in Iran.
Iran's ability to strategically use the Strait of Hormuz to its advantage and tactically hitting hard on the so called US bases in the Middle East neads to be commended.
Kudos to Iran for standing tall all through.
The bully and its Israeli ally met a stubborn and a no pushover in Iran going by its strong will to fight for its right and dignity as a nation. Not withstanding the amount of human and material loss, Iran is a country to be given its due recognition in the comity of nations. Win or lose, well-done, Iran🇮🇷.

God bless Iran 🇮🇷

If they succeed, they will have a significant control over Iran's oil just as we can see with the Venezuela

Are you glorifying broad day light robbery huh

What they did in Venezuela is against international law for goodness sake.

I have learnt that when the one we support is the aggressor, it feels good and all is fine but if reverse is the case, then they are wicked, terrorists and bla bla bla.
