Plus would take at least 10 years and millions of £££ of investment to do with potentially very little benefit.

Tell me if this sounds familiar, Iran wise:

On trade, Trump saw a complex problem with no easy fix (US manufacturing job decline) and went about it in the dumbest, most destructive way possible that fixed nothing.

If challenged his defenders cried, "oh, you support manufacturing decline do you?!"

Trump asking for help from countries he's been insulting since 2016 shows just how shameless he is. He's immune to embarrassment. I hope they all tell him to piss off.

So, the USA has "100%" destroyed Iranian military capacity, and totally won the war (4 times at least), and, after all that winning, Trump is "demanding" other countries come in to "help us".
Yeah, its going well, really well....

Donald lies about everything—even the Oscars.

Michael Jackson's This Is It earned over $267 million. Michael Moore’s Fahrenheit 9/11 made over $200 million.

In contrast, the flop Melania grossed only $15.4 million, failing to recoup its $75 million in costs.

We’re lifting sanctions against Russia even though Trump admits they might be giving classified information about US troops to Iran and 13 military service personnel are dead

But somehow it’s Zelenskyy’s fault

What, exactly, does Putin have on him

Didn't the US Navy decline because it's too risky?

Tice 'avoided
£600,000 in tax'
Gabriel Pogrund - Whitehall Editor

Tice sits in front of a tacky Reform football shirt designed for utter saps and losers, grinning about his tax dodging and wealth

Reform is too thick to hide their real motive for power. It’s not to make us wealthier. It’s not to improve our public services. It’s not even to manage immigration. It’s to wildly enrich themselves by dumping the rules and regulations that protect us from exploitation, discrimination and risk.

"The man that humiliated every US ally that ever fought alongside the US, the man that ridiculed the European soldiers that died in Iraq and Afghanistan claiming they "stayed a little back", the cretin that kept claiming the US doesn't need allies, now begs for allies to help."

I am so confused. First he obliterated Iran's nuclear program last year, then he did it again a couple of weeks back, then he didn't need us because he'd won, and now "Trump urges UK and other nations to send ships to help secure Strait of Hormuz after Iranian attacks".

Many Countries, especially those who are affected by Iran’s attempted closure of the Hormuz Strait, will be sending War Ships, in conjunction with the United States of America, to keep the Strait open and safe. We have already destroyed 100% of Iran’s Military capability, but it’s easy for them to send a drone or two, drop a mine, or deliver a close range missile somewhere along, or in, this Waterway, no matter how badly defeated they are. Hopefully China, France, Japan, South Korea, the UK, and others, that are affected by this artificial constraint, will send Ships to the area so that the Hormuz Strait will no longer be a threat by a Nation that has been totally decapitated. In the meantime, the United States will be bombing the hell out of the shoreline, and continually shooting Iranian Boats and Ships out of the water. One way or the other, we will soon get the Hormuz Strait OPEN, SAFE, and FREE! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Days after declaring total victory and boasting that no other military could match the US, Trump is now begging other countries — including China — to send warships to stop his Iran war from spiraling into catastrophe.

A galactic humiliation.

Just read the quote and see how ridiculous it sounds.

Trump on the sleeper cell threat: “We know where most of them are. We’ve got our eye on all of them… I think.”

This is an actual post from the official White House account. We’re being trolled by fifteen-year-old boys playing computer games.

Q: A new report says that a military investigation has found that the US struck the school in Iran. As commander in chief, do you take responsibility?

TRUMP: For what?

Q: A strike on the school in Iran

TRUMP: I don't know about it

Hasty redeployment of US missiles from South Korea to Middle East leaves Seoul rattled South Korea’s president has sought to reassure the public that the country is able to deter threats from the North

And now Trump's war in Iran is weakening defences in South Korea and Japan

Could this also mean they are running out of defensive missiles in the Gulf?

They really haven't thought this through

Yeah. I'm not sure "you're going to have to make some sacrifices" was part of the election campaign.

You can ask Americans to make sacrifices but you have to convince them why it's necessary, and crucially, you have to do it before the sacrifices are required.

The Trump administration's instinct is to promise everything will be pure upside until it's not and only then scold Americans to be stoic.

QUINTANILLA: Do we think the Russians have shared intel about US military assets, and if so, why would we be giving waivers on oil sanctions?

WITKOFF: I can tell you that on the call with POTUS, the Russians said they have not been sharing. That's what they said. We can take them at their word.
