The US has been "boycotting" Iran since I was a kid.

Are you claiming Iran was not involved in the attempted assassination or Trump and other US officials?

Which "assassination attempt" are you referring to? This staged event? Even MAGA are saying this was faked.

Do you hope for peace in the middle east, and will you be happy if Trump achieves is?

Do you think the Abaraham Accords are a good thing?

Do you think Iran should be permitted to develop nuclear warheads and intercontinental ballistic missiles?

Do you support open borders and mass migration?

Do you think your continuous trolling of members asking the same question again and again is a sign of a mental issue?

I do.

What an incredible coincidence! Just minutes before Trump Tweeted that the "Strait is open" (not anymore), "someone" placed a $760 million short position in crude oil futures. That someone made a billion dollars in seconds.

If the US only had something like a Securities and Exchange Commission or a Dept of Justice, maybe it could be determined who this "prescient" individual was, kind of like the one who made $2-4 billion in 20 minutes two weeks ago when Trump posted his Tweet about a deal a mere fifteen minutes after "someone" took a massive crude short/equities long position. If only exchanges had records of what broker placed the trades so that the broker could be asked who the lucky customer was.

Yeah. It would be helpful to know that.

We have allies there, and we developed much of the oil production.

British Dominance (1900s–1940s): Early exploration was mostly driven by British interests to supply the Royal Navy.

Anglo-Persian Oil Company (APOC) / Anglo-Iranian Oil Company (AIOC)

Founded in 1909 (later BP) to manage the concession. The British government became a 51% shareholder in 1914

It is saddening that you make yet another unbacked blanket generalization.

I'm really not sure why so many on here waste their breath 'debating' the MAGA cult. It's just all Straw Man, whataboutism, logical fallacies, ad hominem and burden of proof flip. Here it is clearly explained and once you watch this you will see it demostrated constantly by the likes of Yagoda, Yellowtail and Rockyroad (or whatever his latest incarnation is).

This needs explaining on why now.

Interesting videos Particulery Johnnybangkok's video. Nails the MAGA's on here to a Tee.

I am sure you have a point to this. I don't know what it is, but I am pretty sure it was not to confirm my claim that the US has developed much of the oil production in the middle east, but thanks anyway.

Think of it this way. America is hitting thousands of targets at will, with little resistance. Trump then makes threats, some of which might be carried out.

Iran's seeing the capabilities America has when a president doesn't give that country a chance, like previous presidents did. They are now wondering where they will be hit next.

Imagine their military, one target after another, with soldiers manning those targets disappearing into pieces. Then think what the remainder is thinking. Are we next? He might be bluffing about some things, such as targets that would affect civilians, as no one wants that to happen, especially Americans who trusted Trump, but others he can destroy and they would just be another target taken out. Iran has no idea because they also think he's a loose cannon. Isn't that someone you would fear? The best way to handle an opponent is to keep them guessing.

America might be hated by some now, but if this war leads to Iran's citizens finally having peace, and the Strait opens and trade continues once again, it would make them look good in most people's eyes, unless of course they are for terrorism.

Can you accept that yours is a one sided imaginary view? Almost childlike in it's construction.

It doesn't take into account what the Iranians can do. They don't need to beat the Americans at their game. They can play another game and win that one.

This is part of what I see as your limited thinking. That you imagine there is only one game in play.

If America tries to destroy their country, they will not suffer alone. The USA will be responsible for that suffering and resistance will grow even stronger. You only see one side and blame the other side for their reaction. Sound familiar?

What kind of peace are you imagining for the Iranians? The same as every other country in the Middle East, in which the USA has meddled these past decades? Please name even one as your model for the Iranian people.

Same old blah blah blah we can do this we can do that chew on this one Iran is holding its own and beating America there threat which still is in place is to damage and cripple any American destoyers daring to come into range of there fast patrol Boats why do you think the US navy has not just sent there navy down the straits as you keep telling us you have crippled there defence capabilities that goes for there Aircraft too. There shaw batteries are waiting hidden underground ready and waiting you know that but won't admit it.

Sorry...who is fighting? Israel and the USA? Do they represent humanity?

Israel:

Allegations of state-sponsored terrorism by Israel in the West Bank and Gaza often center on actions by security forces and settler violence, which have intensified following the October 7, 2023, attacks. Reports indicate accelerated settlement expansion, forced displacement of Palestinians, and violence by settlers often supported or enabled by state authorities..

The Washington Institute +3

Key aspects regarding these accusations include:

• Settler Violence in the West Bank: The UN and other organizations have reported a surge in settler attacks against Palestinians, often conducted in a coordinated manner with, or supported by, Israeli security forces. These incidents include harassment, destruction of property, and fatal violence.

• Military Actions in Gaza: Israel's military operations in Gaza have led to high civilian casualties, with critics and human rights groups alleging disproportionate and indiscriminate attacks on infrastructure and civilians, amounting to severe rights violations.

• State Authority Involvement: Accusations suggest Israeli authorities have sometimes directly participated in or enabled violence against Palestinians in the occupied territories.

• International Response: The US Department of State has, in some instances, referred to acts by armed settlers as terrorism, alongside ongoing combat operations against militant groups like Hamas.

You deflect all day long from topics, yet try and act like the forum police. You again aren't qualified. You NEVER look at what you say, but attack what other do. That's the epitome of NPD behavior.Now think before you reply with yet another insult, as you've been banned many times before for flaming and trolling, in all your personalities. And stop following me around placing thumbsdowns on everything I say, as it's also against forum rules, and I don't use them anymore.
