The totally unnecessary Iran War!

the self awareness of Hegseth

"The problem with Iran is it spends money on weapons and missiles instead of improving life for their people."

Trump starting to look for an off ramp.
Even he will struggle to sell it as a win if he cuts and runs while Iran is still firing missiles like someone threw a match into a box of fireworks.

Seems they fired 2 at Diego Garcia. Nearly twice as far as the farthest range they were thought to have.

^ But they didn't hit their target, or indeed can they get that far.

One was shot down by a US ship, but yes, one just didn't make it.

But now they have us guessing whether it malfunctioned, or didn't have the range.
Which may have been what they really wanted to achieve, who knows.

God these Flag Shaggers on twitter need to calm the fuck down panicing about Iran Missiles and we having no defence which is bollocks we have integrated air defence nothing would get past even if they did have the capability

What was it Keep Calm and Carry on these fuckers will be first to moan if it was bloody gen z panicing

They need to look at a map and see just how many NATO countries it would have to pass over, unmolested, before it even got to our defences.

the problem is that the map they are looking at was provided by the IDF on a twitter post its the whole 45mins thing of the iraq war
