    Does Iran actually have the range to be a threat to the US? The last stats I saw had their maximum range and maybe enough to strike the Mediterranean and maybe a little inland in Italy and Spain. That’s a far cry from being able to hit the US mainland. Hell even South Africa is probably out of range and it’s not like they can deploy ships to close the gap.

      Iran has a different war strategy that the US is incredibly unprepared for. They spin up terror cells around the world using the atrocities commuted by their targets to justify their actions to impressionable people. The US keeps fighting this fight by giving them exactly the ammunition they need to keep fighting. Terror cells get fed into the mulcher but keep on coming back and the US pretends that’s a success.

      I live in a hopeless country that has no desire to improve anything, just to conquer. Trump burning everything down is probably better for the world since we won’t have the power to abuse them anymore but fuck if he’s not going to kill us all in the process.
