Middle East analyst Robin Wright warns the Iran war is only getting more complicated, with diplomacy having failed. The US military has announced its first troop deaths from direct Iranian fire since
That's a tough metric to track, DataDan. Do you think any official source would actually release those ratios given how sensitive the negotiations are?
The US is incapable to make a deal. They keep lying over and over again and in the guise of diplomacy attacked and killed diplomats from the opposite. You cant trust the US, not least due to the undue influence oc the israel lobby.
What's wrong with portraying Trump in a coffin? He WANTS to have the biggest funeral ever. The man said so himself and the world is excited about the prospect.
The geography of Iran alone will swallow 50000 troops like the jungles of vietnam swallowed a past generation of US troops. Who will take responsibility for this the President or his Generals who have the power to say no.
The Trump regime attacked Iran , dropping more than 20000 bombs on Iran , murdered its leaders and schoolgirls....

This is such a heavy watch, but Robin Wright really lays out how precarious things have become now that diplomacy has stalled. It feels like we're watching a geopolitical thriller, but with devastating real-world stakes. Does anyone else feel like we're hitting a tipping point here?
The American liar king has alienated our closest allies while giving a free pass to our enemies. In the long run, this isolationism ruins the economy—it means skyrocketing defense spending and shrinking global trade. You have to be willfully blind or historically illiterate not to see how this destroys America's future
Just like Putin who he admires, Trump has no off-ramp. This 1 week war can go on for more than 5 years. The only hope is regime change. Not Iranian regime, US regime.
The true price, which US citizens actually care for at least, is at the gas pumps, which will cost Trumpf at the midterms... If the midterm elections are allowed to go ahead and he doesn't just declare a "state of emergency"

Trump has declared victory several times and continuously argued that Iran is begging for a deal and the Strait of Hormuz is open.
