Please try not to assume, as i not only get all the news you can look up, but have friends and family in the military, all Americans, who know more of what's going on than some of the biased media. You don't only kill the heads but kill the spirit of them. That's when normal thinking Iranians, peace wanting, not terrorist thinking, can come into play. America has won every facet of this war since day one. That's what your bias doesn't see.

America could finish any war it started, but looks at casualties on our side and decides to withdraw, even if all objectives aren't met.

There are thousands of Iranians killed, along with decimating their military, and the US hasn't lost but a few men and weapons, of which they have a lot more then you think.

Calling America Satan is ignorance. You hate Trump, so keep it with that thinking, as it isn't about Americans but the government's decisions, which were necessary anyway. I'm thinking you want America to lose, so Iran's terrorist regime can rebuild then strike anywhere it wants. America has Iran by the balls, and some are too biased to see this.

If America wanted to destroy all of Iran, it would do so, but they aren't looking at killing more civilians nor taking out their infrastructure, as that would have a lot more hating America. You go by what you hear on media, and aren't hearing but a fraction of what's going on behind closed doors, nor what all the motives are here. There are obvious ones, and ones you haven't thought about. It means nothing what scientists Iran has. America could wipe the country out without losing any more men. You have no idea what thinkers America has as you're too focused on Trump.

The US has been as "materially" successful as it was in its Vietnam war.

"Peace with honour" is the best it can hope for in this one.

Q: How many MAGA does it take to change a lightbulb?

A: None, because their dear leader will tell them it has been fixed and they will sit in the dark applauding.

I have always said it is perfectly n ormal for someone to talk to themselves - it’s when they answer themselves you have to run for the hills.🤪https://media1.giphy.com/media/10Jpr9KSaXLchW/200.gif?cid=d9f52f32k1qg2qd59589d9jtdcrh0tfy1owf3vwdvvqowwba&ep=v1_gifs_trending&rid=200.gif&ct=g

No, this is as one sided as any war has ever been by a longshot. It shows the capability of a military when it's let loose on terror, and it's been a long time coming as terrorists have killed way too many innocents for way too long. Now it's time to start having world peace, and that only comes when evil is eliminated, even if it's created in some households daily. Nip it in the bud before it spreads and a thousand are killed by one plane or bomb.

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) released the March 2026 employment data on April 3rd. The report showed a significant rebound in hiring compared to a weak February, though the overall labor market continues to show signs of a "low-hire, low-fire" dynamic.

Headline Numbers

• Nonfarm Payrolls: Increased by 178,000 jobs (far exceeding the consensus forecast of ~60,000–65,000).

• Unemployment Rate: Ticked down slightly to 4.3% (from 4.4% in February).

• Average Hourly Earnings: Rose by 0.09 (0.2%) to $37.38.

The war outcome is unknown.

Especially to Trump as he does not seem to have an end game/policy!

There is a term called "Reductio ad Hitlerum," and I believe we need a similar concept—let's call it "Reductio ad Trumpum." This forum should establish a metric to measure how quickly someone brings up Reductio ad Trumpum, which often leads to chaos in discussions. Additionally, some people claim that anyone who supports Trump is mentally ill. I would argue that there is also a degree of mental illness among those who think about Trump 24/7.

As a man who claims to have some love of objectivity would you care to enlighten us on which part of Trump's policies you don't agree with?

This is ironic coming from the guy who said he proudly voted for Bill Clinton, and claimed Bubba was never accused of sexually assaulting women.

It doesn't have to change regime change for Iran. They started the end of the terrorist regime, and it's Iran's citizens who need to do the rest. The also took out the navy and thousands of other military targets. I'm not gaslighting but saying what's happened. Assuming I'm not a "thinker", is yet another. You only hear a fraction of what Americans think, and a lot of what you hear is biased because many dislike Trump, not really caring about the war but if Trump fails. What I hear i s what you hear, along with things you don't, which is why I said wait until it ends, and you'll see more of the reasons behind this, as there's too much BS around that some fall for as they're one sided thinking. Of course this is costing money, but many aren't thinking of the afterwards.

Under Commodus, the decline and fall of the Roman Empire was due to a number of factors. These included a cult of personality, staggering debt, social decay, currency debasement, conflict with the Senate, and rampant corruption. At the height of his megalomania, Commodus even tried to rename Rome after himself. Sound familiar?

I am thinking of the afterwards, and how history repeats itself.

Clinton was 10 times the man Little Don is, and was a truly outstanding president, he ran the economy like a CPA would run a good firm. Trump on the other hand is a master of bankruptcy, a fraud, a conman, and is absolutely the wrong man for the job. His disastrous performant to date is evidence of that.

Yes, I know about Rome, as it's history , including how Spartacus put a dent into it, is a favorite subject, but the US isn't like Rome, as it has no intention to take over any countries or governments. Trump isn't permanent, only a couple more years, and then another will take over, much like all other countries, and make positive gains and mistakes, like all others before who were also hated, and loved, or both.

Terrorist groups and armed liberation movements have caused immense suffering, but the death toll from state-led terror is historically far greater.

The Middle East conflict is strong evidence that state violence can kill far more civilians than non-state terrorism.

What a load of crap. The dot com boom boosted the economy. Clinton is a lying sleazebag and a rapist.

Your double standards are pathetic.

How interesting it is that the so-called centrist Democrats, who encourage people to be critical of Trump's policies, never hold Bill Clinton accountable. Bill Clinton never ran any businesses, so he couldn’t fail at one. Additionally, the president doesn't have as much control over the economy as many people believe. You may want to read this:

Furthermore, Bill Clinton benefited from the dot-com boom and the peace dividend that followed the end of the Cold War.

Not everyone thinks Bill Clinton was great.

You are too well-read to pretend this is new. Hawaii was annexed, Cuba was invaded by a U.S.-backed force, Iran’s government was overthrown with U.S. backing, Guatemala and Chile were destabilized, and Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan hardly suggest a country allergic to intervention. Add Trump’s open talk about Greenland, Gaza, and Canada, and the record speaks for itself.

Why do you think the US has been meddling in the Middle East for decades? It is to control oil, and protect the petrodollar. The Chinese are now paying for Saudi oil in yuan. Central banks used to hold more than 70% of their foreign exchange in USD. It's now 54%, and falling.

In 1950, America produced more than 50% of the world's steel. China now outproduces it by more than 10:1.

The US is exactly like Rome in the factors I have posted.

You have blinkers bigger than Florente.

An interesting point of view. If it came from someone who made occasional accurate posts on specific topics it might have some merit. However coming from someone who fires off posts by the hundreds if not thousands, changing his identity every few months, it carries very little weight.

Trump says a lot of silly things that will never happen, That's just his ego speaking and even Congress takes it all with a grain of salt. Many are threats, and they work if it backs off someone. What's better than hearing a threat from a loose cannon with the strongest military on earth, along with having things like Venezuela happen?

You're also talking about many governments in a smaller scale. The US doesn't need oil like you think it does. It gets less than 10% from the Middle East and is one of the largest exporters. You consistently dismiss the main facts of this war, which is terrorism related. Closing the Strait is affecting a lot of the world's oil trade, which is another problem that needs to stop.

Some have Donald Trump on the brain and think this is all about money. The man knows he has little time left, and has more money then him and his family will ever need. This is about power for him.
