The IRGC are fighting on home soil with home support and logistics. The USA is invading Iran and fighting a war thousands of miles away from home, with aircraft carriers unable to project the kind of power as in the past. Iran has vowed to take out the Abraham Lincoln if it comes within range. Now countries are even refusing to host USA military logistics for striking Iran. They saw what happened to the Gulf countries that did the hosting and now suffering the consequences. That alone tells us who is on the upper hand.
Moreover, the USA now has little support unlike in Vietnam, and countries are wary of a long war of attrition that is going to crash their economy. What can the USA hope to achieve, let us say, if they can occupy all of Iran. The USA needs to keep a massive force trying to hold on to a huge country like Iran, while those Iranians left to fight another day are intent on fighting a guerilla war instead. As if the USA's 20 long years of experience in Afghanistan is not enough and Trump thinks he can achieve something better with Iran. He is absolutely delusional and probably realizing he has no off-ramp moves left to save his huge mistake of underestimating Iran.

More market manipulation. Yesterday, the war will be ending. Today, more intense bombing coming. What the hail is happening without a day of contradiction?
ReplyDeleteWhile Trump is providing 'insider trading', the rest of the world is yo-yoing for nothing.
DeleteThat is why never take Trump's farting at face value. He could fart downstairs and also upstairs.
ReplyDeleteIran claimed to hit 3 meetings involving senior American officers. How did Iran manage to track down these secretive meetings in secret safe houses?
ReplyDeleteIt is elementary. All the American officers carried Apple iPhones and it is so easy to track them, like the CIA and Mossad tracking Arab and Muslim leaders, also carrying iPhones and using GPS.
Trump now talking about 'swift overwhelming victories'. Oh yes, that was supposed to happen after February 28th, just 4 to 5 days needed. Then 4 to 5 weeks was floated. Now 5 weeks have gone by, still ongoing. Just like the collapse of China that has taken more than 25 years and still on annual renewal basis.
ReplyDeleteLooks like China is doing even better in first quarter of 2026, with manufacturing posting strong growth. This is despite all the gloom and doom that China was supposed to suffer because of the Iran War. MSM narrative still trying to downplay China's growth with blah, blah, blah news. As if 25 years of forecasting regarding the collapse of China is not enough.
DeleteFor all the absolutes we know, Gordon Chang is going to collapse before China does.
