The previous Iranian regime was more willing to work with the US then this one btw. In fact, the previous regime WORKED with the US, and had a DEAL with the US, which was working for years. It was not just with the US, but with multiple countries. This is the DEAL which Donald Trump BROKE.

The region is now more unstable then before the US attacked Iran and it is not difficult to suggest that the region will be more unstable for the next 10 years as a consequence of the last 2-3 years.

However, you are not wrong, one sides does not have to win and one side does not have to lose. The US attacked the country of Iran, Iran did not attack the country of the United States. The attack by the US led to consequences and now the US has decided to stop attacking. That is not a win or lose. Its a disengagement. Basically criminals broke into a house, killed dad, smashed some stuff up, and now they are leaving because they overstayed their welcome.


By 'working,' do you mean letting them fund a literal ring of fire around our borders, build out a 2,000km ballistic missile arsenal, and enrich a massive stockpile of high-purity uranium?
You talk about the 2015 JCPOA like it was a peace treaty, Ferida, but it completely ignored the real-world threats. It didn’t stop their regional aggression; it just subsidized it by unfreezing billions that went straight to Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis.
And your 'criminals breaking into a house' analogy is totally detached from reality. The US and Israel didn't launch strikes out of a vacuum. This entire conflict happened because Iran spent years aggressively pushing its nuclear program to a dangerous threshold and directing its proxies to target us.
Trump is signing an interim MoU right now to unblock the Strait of Hormuz and fix an energy crisis, but don't confuse an American diplomatic exit with a solved problem. Israel still lives in the neighborhood. We don't have the luxury of pretending a regime that openly funds terror networks is just a peaceful 'homeowner' minding its own business.

No one here can say they support trump after this.

Your arguments are null and void.

You are hallucinating a victory because you can’t tell the difference between an American election cycle and an existential war, ⁠thesnipa⁠.
You think 'daddy stepped in' because Trump is rushing through a 1.5-page interim MoU to artificially drop oil prices and reopen the Strait of Hormuz before his domestic voters head to the polls. The US is a global superpower thousands of miles away; they can pack up their toys, declare a PR victory, and fly home whenever the news cycle shifts.
Look at what they are actually doing to get that quick exit: JD Vance just stood at the White House press podium today and defended letting Iran keep their ballistic missiles, calling them 'self-defense' just like Israel's. The US is so desperate to wash its hands of this that they are literally rewriting the rules of global terror on television to give themselves a political escape hatch.
But notice who isn't packing up and leaving? Israel. We don't have the luxury of vomiting or whining because we aren't playing a game. While Trump and Vance sign pieces of paper to patch up their domestic polling numbers, the IDF just published our updated security maps and we are staying firmly south of the Litani River. We are handling Iran and its proxies exactly how we need to, regardless of whether a risk-averse Western administration has the stomach to see it through.
Make peace with that.

Support? The USA just threw their strongest and most reliable ally under the bus for fuel prices.

your whole post is exactly what i predicted would happen lol. i said the trump regime didnt have the time to get it done nor the political will ahead of the midterms. i said that in these very forums when the bombs first dropped.

i literally just told you to blow off some steam in Lebanon, now you're bragging about the Litani?

i never claimed you can't handle Iran's proxies, that's childs play. you'll fuck up your reputation even more doing it, but it's not logistically hard. all you do is call in airstrikes on stone age villages then send in troops once the last kid stops twitching. its not exactly hard.

and now iran has US support to build more ballistic missiles, the money to keep funding proxies to keep you busy and look bad in the news, and only has to give up nukes that are too hot for them to handle anyways.

now the news cycle can pivot 100% to Gaza, the west bank, and Lebanon. and you can take some more hits. Netanyahu has to hope sweeping proxies is enough of an excuse to continue postponing investigations and that the clear loss in Iran isn't enough to lose support. he'll retain control anyways imo, but with Iran (and gaza before it) so hot he didnt even have to worry.

Because Iran acquiring nuclear weapons is an unacceptable proposition. Again, everyone agrees on this except apparently you.


Prove they acquired nukes.


You can't neither can Google.

No, Iran does not have nuclear weapons. Both U.S. intelligence agencies and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) assess that Iran halted its organized nuclear weapons development program in 2003 and has never made the political decision to cross the threshold of building an actual bomb.

You literally just finished ranting that Israel 'can't handle Iran,' and the moment I point out that Washington is the one throwing them a lifeline to get out of the war, you flip right around and say, 'Uh, well, that's exactly what I predicted!'
Let’s look at your actual words. You called managing Iran's proxies 'child’s play' just now, but an hour ago you were weeping about how we 'bit off more than we could chew.' Which is it? You change your entire strategic theory from post to post just to make sure you can sound like a cynic who got it right.
And your attempt to normalize the White House briefing is hilarious. You're calling an interim MoU 'US support' like it’s a brilliant masterstroke. JD Vance didn't give Iran 'permission' out of some grand strategic genius; he did it because the US administration is terrified of what happens to the global economy if this war drags into the midterms. They didn't 'allow' Iran to keep ballistic missiles; they capitulated on them because they couldn't force a real surrender, so they had to invent a ridiculous narrative about a terror state needing 'self-defense' to save face on the world stage.
You can sit on a gaming forum pretending this is a 'clear loss' for us, but the tactical reality on the ground hasn't changed. While the US crawls into a 60-day review period to fix its oil supply, the IDF is still operating exactly where it needs to. We aren't checking the news cycle or waiting for a permission slip from Washington to defend our northern border.
Keep spinning the narrative, though. It’s highly entertaining watching you rewrite your own predictions in real-time

boy you really are lost, but im sure its fun to pretend i am instead.

you bit off more than you can chew with Iran. you cant beat Iran, except MAYBE with nuclear strikes, without the help of the USA doing most of the legwork militarily. and as i said all along the USA doesnt have the will do to that legwork, or the time. so starting the war would always have led here, as ive said all along. we'll jump in, we'll realize it was a bad idea, midterms will come, and we'll back out. like i said all along.

as to all of the nonsense about JD vance and the regime's moves, im not legitimizing or supporting any of them. they foolishly got into this war, which i was and am against, and now they're scrambling to get out of it and leaving us in a worse place than before we were when we got into it. TBH i didnt predict that, i expected we'd bomb more and come out about neutral militarily but FAR worse financially with a much lower stockpile of bombs. we still took a hit to the pocket book and stockpile, but it hasnt been as bad as i predicted. no issues admitting that. still dont think we'd have forced submission even if we did bomb them doubly what we did. they're not gonna quit.

you bragging about handling the houthis and their ilk is just like trump bragging about taking out iran's navy. you've chastised me many times for calling the proxies an annoyance rather than a legitimate threat, guess you forgot that. now you want credit for swatting flies? puh-leeze.
