Misc This Means WAR

Don't forget that the IRGC is the ones who did this. They're testing Trump by doing the blockade. They know that his war approval ratings is down the toliet. You have a faction ("moderates") who are negoiating and the war-mongers (IRGC). Any resumption of fighting will further inflame tensions between that two factions. Heck the IRGC called the foreign minister a idiot.
They are trying to use the strategy North Vietnam and the Viet Cong used so successfully and it may very well work again.
 
100% agree with this. Iran will come out of this in much better shape than they were. I can see a scenario where they even get to keep their nuke program alive and get a weapon ready before too long.
I have no confidence in Trump negotiating with Iran. Iran will sign some meaningless deal then ignore it
 
It's not all about this one girl. Plenty of Iranians hate their govt and are doing the only thing they have the power to do trying to change it. The entire political power structure needs to be wiped out somehow. The country changed in 1979, and it needs to change again very soon.

Indeed, the 80% who opposed the terrible Mullahs regime still almost entirely do despite a portion no longer supporting this war due to civilian deaths, especially the school-kids, and civilian infrastructure damage. Initially nearly all of this 80% supported the war and were very hopeful for regime change, especially when the Ayatollah was killed. But they then discovered pretty soon afterward that the Mullahs are much more deeply entrenched than they realized and thus a good portion of this 80% then gave up nearly all hope for regime change. :( At that point that portion saw nothing good about the war and only the bad. So, they became opposed to it despite still hating the Mullahs and most still not hating US/Israel although I wouldn’t blame parents of those kids now hating them for obvious reasons (imagine of one of your own kids was killed). It’s pretty complicated and very sad for that 80%. :(
