That is why you are numb after herdsmen killed 8 OBAs in your region, but you are busy shouting iran, Israel.. USA. grin


Saturnalia:
When war rages between Countries or Groups, Players often resort to extreme measures just to compel the opponent to surrender and fulfill one’s will.

The unlawful Amerikan bombing of the Iranian School that killed 156 schoolchildren is an example.

This is also the reason why the United Snakes of Amerika always bombs Hospitals, Infrastructures, Power Plants & Schools in every Country where she wages war.

So in all fairness, I support Iran 100% on this move with a tumbler of chilled Heineken Beer. grin

After all, all is fair in love and war.

It seems the US has ditched all the lessons it learnt from Vietnam. Conventional warfare is not the only path to victory.

Iran MUST NEVER be allowed to own a nuclear weapon because then no country, not even Isreal or USA, will be able to touch them if they decide to close the Strait of Hormuz or seize the underwater cables or hold the rest of the world hostage in some ways.

Very useless country being controlled by Islamic terrorists lipsrsealed lipsrsealed

US military generals ...and experts all warned against going to war with Iran ... that the US will lose. The US went to war with Iran before...using proxy Iraq. Didn't win. Iran been preparing since for a showdown with the US ... and we're seeing how well they are prepared and how the US is not....the reason the US is not entering the strait....the reason why they have moved out the aircraft carriers 200 miles out to sea ..the reason their battleships etc do not come anywhere close to the Iranian coast. Iran is very strategic .... this is just another card. The strait was open to all ...free of charge ...no controls .....the cables were safe...but Trump listened to Netanyahu and swallowed the bait....went to war with Iran on behalf of Iran who has backed out from the firefight and moved to fight women and children in Lebanon. Controlling the cables is not as bad as strapping a few mines on them . Iran has the US and basically half the world by the balls. Countries economies can collapse....Europe will now pressure Trump...grab him by the ehmmm.n

Some Islamic terrorist sympathisers here are happy to cut of the nose in order to spite their face. Like it is America that will suffer it.

Why wouldn’t they use every tool available to gain an edge? Sun Tzu said “Maneuver to hit the enemy where they are unprotected and unprepared.


It seems Iran is holding more cards than what trumpo thinks, Welcome to the penalty phase of FAFO
Nothing strange from a lunatic iran regime that shut down internet from Iran citizens over 4 months running.......
You dont worry...your regime can go ahead and cut all the cables....but let it be known to you and your regime that the response to it will make you guys and your murderous regime start to cry the breaking of international laws as usual

This is a welcome development from Iran.
Hope you also welcome the response to the madness when received by your Iran regime just as it is the case with the strait

Poor people always support Iran against the US. Why?

No wonder the Qatari PM rushed to US to tell the Americans to de-escalate from silly renewed ceasefire violations after it brought war on Iran.

Iran has its intranet and satelite communications so cutting those cables has little or no effect on it.
Alright...you think it's only your iran that has intranet or whatever.....let them carry out the madness first and see who cry international laws noise later

Iran is humiliating America at every turn. They are prepared to wait out the US for a long time. Next week, Trump will be visiting president Xi if China. Iran knows that if the war is still ongoing, Trump will be discussing with Xi from a position of weakness.

Another thing is memorial weekend is 2 weeks away in the US. With summer approaching, a lot of Americans will be travelling. The increased fuel prices will generate so much anger against the Trump led government.

By the end of May, most countries will have run out of crude in their strategic reserves. At that point, we will likely have crude oil approaching the 200 dollar range. This will bottom out most economies and trigger massive recessions worldwide. Iran knows this. All they need now is time and patience.
Do you even know the meaning of humiliation or you just want to use unnecessary words?

Do you even understand why this war is on?
