Uncensored discussion of the four-year dark winter predicted by and carried out by Biden
Waiting to see how much veracity this has but here it is for now
That regime is going to be hanging by threads soon.
I'm not sure what the likelihood of an uprising from within is but when your military gets wrecked from a small country miles away and reveals how weak you are i find it impossible to stay in power after that
@Vermillion-Rx Market reaction to a telegraphed, face-saving response by Iran. Cease fire announced. War ain't happening. Question is whether Iran's military will let the Islamists stay in power.

@Typo-MAGAshiv It was a pretty meaningless deal. Two enemies negotiated in bad faith. Neither got anything they wanted except to stop negotiating unsuccessfully.
The more powerful nation wanted to keep the other down, so it was never going to offer the weaker power anything meaningfully good, only the chance of less pain if it complied. The less powerful nation wanted to quietly gain a powerful tool that its enemies have that might get it taken more seriously but it had to lie and pretend it wouldn't seek the tool it really wants in return for slightly less pain. How was a deal like that ever going to last?
In the end this one will only be won by actions. It is almost impossible to turn an enemy into a neutral nation by offering the absence of fear or suffering. You have to actually create a positive vision of a place for that nation at your table or defeat it. Either positive actions in diplomacy are needed or victory.
You can't achieve victory without boots on the ground. Boots on the ground require resources. When you have a huge debt and a proxy war draining you, a new war is a poor investment, particularly when you sell yourself as a police man not a conqueror, when you hand back shattered countries to embittered citizens not keep them as resources.
When the US puts boots on the ground in muslim countries it has a good record of short term success and a terrible record of long term success. It does not know how to offer a civilised non western country a vision that it can buy into. Not everyone thinks that a slightly higher standard of living is worth the cost of being ruled by liberal values and the fiat dollar.
Read MoreWell, that's what bothers me: there is no such things as opinions when facts are involved. Whether the water is wet or not is not a matter of rhetoric, but rather an observation.
When you talk about rounds, it implies that we are using tricks and tactics to force the opposing party to concede a victory. That is frivolous.
What matters is the truth and only the truth and truth is not subjective (unless you're a woman).
I was responding to the trump dooming. I do not think this is going to have the negative ramifications the sentiment of your post conveyed
Wrong
About??
Half of the people on here were saying there was going to be world war III. What has happened instead has been everyone distancing themselves from Iran
as a petty personal attack to get rejected out of hand and ultimately just reinforcing the factually incorrect statements from before that were getting addressed.
I'm not giving you a petty rejection to an argument. People are saying XYZ is going to happen and time hasn't panned out for it. All we would be doing is arguing about it
World War III is not going to happen and the dust will settle from this and I will even go as far as to predict the middle East will become more peaceful because of how badly Iran is getting dismantled
@Typo-MAGAshiv OK fair enough, I'm incorrect that Obama's peace prize got awarded FOR the nuclear deal.
Everything else I've said about it stands, including the fact that Iran was willfully complying with the terms of the deal and openly showing that they were not enriching uranium beyond what was needed for their power generating reactors and for medical isotopes. (Iran has a very advanced medical system by modern standards.)
@Stigma OK, that's just embarrassing
