    I don't understand the Iran war by the US, I'm guessing I'm just ignorant.

    As far as I can see they've assassinated the leader of Iran and his whole family, except his son, then got his very angry son elected as leader... then declared victory and said it's over?

    @GossiTheDog You're trying to rationalise the irrational.

    But, the #iran war almost feels like it's more about a "pump and dump" scheme for the rich to quickly and massively profit from oil investments, than it is about regime change.

      @GossiTheDog If they can wreck the stock market then they can promote meme coins and rugpull more money out of everyone.

      Countries can bribe Trump to stop causing Iran to bomb them. Then Trump can add another war/peace participation trophy to his wall.

      Saudi Arabia sure paid the Trump empire a lot for something. 🤷🏻‍♀️

      Next up is decap and occupy Cuba, which then will look like de-escalation and home-court scuffle. That’s a personal favor to Rubio, their best boy.

        @GossiTheDog They're using my money to drop bombs on people I've never met for reasons they can't seem to articulate. It's all just great.

          @GossiTheDog Trump was suckered into fighting Netanyahu's war for the Middle East

          now its damaging the US economy (read: the rich) so he wants out

          but Trump doesn't want to appear subordinate to Israel OR to have turned against them

          if he can't find a way out, some achievement to cling to as the goal all along, he'll have to double down

          obviously most people are not driven by trying to prove themselves a big man and consider admitting mistakes and being humble to be a virtue

          Trump isn't most people

            Follow the money!

            Who knew the war was coming and how much money did they make speculating on the market in advance?

            😠

              @GossiTheDog And Trump said something like, “We had some ideas on who we wanted to take over, but we killed them too”.

                        Trump has started a war he doesn't want to fight. He wanted the Iranian people to fight it for him, and when that didn't happen he expected the Kurds to step up.

                                    I still don't understand the US war on Iran. They declared war, then said it wasn't a war, then it was, then it wasn't, then it was, then declared victory, said Iran's military was totally disabled.. and now they're begging for help from the rest of the world as things keep getting blown up?

                                    Like - what is the plan here?

                                    There's not point asking the UK for help, we probably sold all our boats to Lidl.

                                        I still don't understand the US war on Iran. They declared war, then said it wasn't a war, then it was, then it wasn't, then it was, then declared victory, said Iran's military was totally disabled.. and now they're begging for help from the rest of the world as things keep getting blown up?

                                        Like - what is the plan here?

                                        There's not point asking the UK for help, we probably sold all our boats to Lidl.

                                        @GossiTheDog there's no plan, only concepts of a plan.
                                        Now on a more serious note, they don't know because their handlers (Thiel, Putin, Netanyahu, etc.) haven't told them yet.

                                          It is the spaghetti plan.

                                          They are throwing everything at the wall in the hopes that people won't (a) notice all the crimming going on, and (b) notice how little they are doing about the Epstein stuff.
