      Even if the war ended today it would take months to sort out supply chains.

      Frankly, I think Iran would be foolish to quit now. I know they have probably been hurt, but truth is their asymmetric advantage is huge and easily maintained.

      The Strait is a warzone. By all honesty, the US closed it by waging war. Iran just has to stay hostile to keep it closed.

      You can start a war any time you want, but you can’t always end it when you want. As long as Iran has an RPG and a row boat they can keep the Strait closed and the US will waste billions trying to stop them.

      Trump and the US Military look like fools right now. Blowing up civilian infrastructure will make them monsters and war criminals.

      Fuck trump. Release the files now. Or wait until the democrats receive a massive W in the midterms. The last 12 months of chaos is completely unnecessary and is only benefiting the top billionaires

      Trump doesn’t care.

      Combine three attributes: .

      1 He can’t back down.

      2 His art is the deal is always: do as I say.

      3 He commands the most powerful army in the world.

      He will already up the ante on that basis until the end.
