Trump Crippled Iran Without Giving Them Another Iraq … So The Experts Moved The Goalposts And Called It Defeat

[d0gbreath]

The war is over. There were no winners, which is why it was stopped.

 

[j-mac]

Iran wasn't trying to get a nuke. Iran was complying with JCPOA.

That’s false, and you damned well know it, liar.

The war isn’t over unit an actual peace deal is agreed upon, and signed by both parties.

 

[j-mac]

No. I said we should have never started. Nice try.

Well, that’s just not reality is it now?

With all due respect, you are so busy sucking up Trumps ass you can't see that ALL politicians are owned by the swamp and that you (and everyone down here) is being played.
You accuse the Left of being stupid "cultists"...but you need a good long look in the mirror.
Never fear, there are millions just as clueless as you seem to be.
There's a reason America has become an Idiocracy. Fanatics on BOTH sides are proof.

I wish I was wrong.

 

[BasicHumanUnit]

No, the problem is Trump can't do anything right.

As much as I hate to cite either of the Bushes as a good example, 41 and 43 did this right when they went to war with Iraq in 91 and 03.

They built up an international coalition; they didn't go it alone.
They worked through the UN
They built up adequate forces in the region before striking.
They set clear goals of what they were trying to accomplish.

Oh shut the **** up.
Communists should have NO SAY in America. None. Period.

 

[j-mac]

They were all saying get out of this. Just stop.

Now it's Trump made a bad deal to end the war.

Absolutely, which shows why it’s utterly worthless to engage with these vermin…But, sigh yet we do…

Perhaps shipping companies would rather not have crew members killed if a tanker hits a mine even if they are financially compensated.

The lanes that are safe are closer to Oman, the mines (50-80) are in the deep channel.

 

[candycorn]

Well, that’s just not reality is it now?

Yes it is. I have said from the beginning that we shouldn’t be over there. I said that in 2013 as well.

I usually don’t have such an easy time slapping you down. You must be tired...are you hungover or strung out?

You are wrong.

The OP is due no respect.

Iran won. We lost. We lost when we pulled the trigger.

This "war" is being run on Iran's timetable and under Iran's conditions.

All Trump can do is blow stuff up, which is what Iran planned for when it created its network of autonomous administrative groups.

Trump is now reduced to desperately threatening Iran's diplomats, which you just don't do.

Meanwhile, Iran is calmly maintaining its grip on a badly-needed oil supply for the entire planet.

If you think Iran is crippled and helpless, you are just terribly wrong. Ignorant. Hopeless. Worthless.

Dude, Iran has been devastated.

And Operation Maximum Pressure continues, Iran has split into factions that are killing each other. All according to plan.

Isn’t it clear that no deal will ever be good enough to appease the Trump haters?

Longtime readers of Captain K’s Corner understand that I prefer to view the world as it is, rather than how I wish it would be. Do you remember last month, when everyone was salivating over polling showing two Republican candidates (Hilton and Bianco) atop the gubernatorial polls, with less than 15% each?

Oh wow, we’re gonna wind up with two Republican candidates for governor this year because there are too many Dems running!​

Remember how I felt about that?

​

Eric Swalwell was clearly pushed out of the race from the Democrat side (by his own people) to prevent the dual-GOP scenario from happening. And then, even if all other machinations failed, the ballot counting machine would have taken as long as possible to ensure the party didn’t get locked out of running its own state. In the end, Steve Hilton made it to the General Election, and by less than 2 points over third-place candidate Tom Steyer – with roughly 83,000 ballots left to count nearly three weeks since Election Day.

An excerpt:

My admonition to all is to tune out the negative voices and the whiners who are trying to stop President Trump from advancing toward a deal. I had hopes the Iranian regime would be rooted out, but once again, it’s not America’s job to do the dying necessary, and without willing partners ready to put boots on ground while we remain at sea and in the air, it’s a non-starter. The best outcome, then, from this point forward looks like the rumored framework of the deal:​

• Strait of Hormuz immediately reopened with de-mining underway
• Iran gives up uranium enrichment, hands over any stockpiles, and provides access to outside inspectors to ensure their end of the agreement is held up
• Iran, pending satisfactory fulfillment of above points, gets a break on sanctions and an opportunity for the new chain of command to advance the nation’s standing in the world

Earlier this week, President Trump inked an agreement to bring about the cessation of hostilities and establish the framework for regional stability. Yet many of the voices who encouraged the early kinetic actions against Iran are now screeching because the bombs are on hold (for now), and on the flip side of the coin, the loudest voices for non-interventionism are repeating online vomit and half-truths to mock Trump for supposedly waving a white flag.
The goalposts for what defines success are constantly being moved.
Now it is time for a reality check on the way the world is, and why the deal is what it is:
