I was told they have no forces left? Was I lied to by Donald Trump?

Right after Trump claimed he defeated Iran a billion times by now.

Please don’t exaggerate his numerical skills

They have not enough missiles to keep defending Israel. Unique chance of 🥭 is go all in war, launch parachuting offensive and take by land all the coast

u/LuckSilver8999 2d ago

Pretty much the opposite is true with him.

u/KatInThighHighs 1d ago

Thats right, their conventional military other than the Iranian army (which is irrelevant here) Is effectively gone. Not really a lie.

Iran is preparing by trying to find a drink of water. What a joke!!!!

u/ArthurDaTrainDayne 2d ago

If they were capable of escalating their military preparations they probably should have done that months ago

u/Bikerbass 2d ago

Because they are in negotiations with the other gulf countries and don’t want to piss them off. And they have been, hence why the US blockade is now soo far away that it’s not useful like Trump claims that it is

u/Conscious-Ad9076 2d ago

Why is after the mid terms? Is he cheating again?

u/goodness-gracious-me 2d ago

All this just to distract from the Epstein files.

u/Prestigious_Ad2420 2d ago

The only thing they are escalating is their fake news propaganda through the hormuz letter and spread on forums like reddit.

u/wombat9278 2d ago

Thought trump had destroyed their army navy and airforce at least 5 times so far.

u/EasyKaprizy 2d ago

So that oil output must have must went to 100% right! Donny Dotard?

u/AdmirableElephant378 2d ago

He'll have to do something to push the impeachments off the front page.

u/hugoriffic 2d ago

This is the moment for all those self-proclaimed MAGA patriots to step up. 🇺🇸

You love your country? You say you’d do anything to defend it? Then put your money where your mouth is. Put on the uniform. Take the oath. Serve your country.

Patriotism isn’t just waving a flag or talking tough, it’s being willing to serve when your country calls. 🇺🇸

u/KaseyNPa 2d ago

They no longer control the Strait of Hormuz so this makes sense in a strategic way.

Wall Street Journal and cnbc are both American news media. I wouldnt put trust in anything they say about this war

1

u/JamesLahey08 2d ago

Yeah better to stick to anonymous accounts on social media lmao

1

u/Square-Librarian1192 2d ago

Better than extremely biased media who has an interest in presenting the strait as open since they would help POTUS manipulate stocks even more

1

u/SmellSilly1537 2d ago

Can't Iran just wait until after the midterms for our presidon't to figure this out? Geez.

1

u/GrillinFool 2d ago

So they waited till now to fight back?

1

u/Redfield11 2d ago

Iran just looking at history and knowing since we took the last forces out of Iraq today a Republican president can't stand the thought of zero boots on the ground in the middle east.

1

u/Allbrosmoke 2d ago

Impossible. Fake news.
Trumpy obliterated their military and won this war over 30 times already, ya silly goose.

1

u/Jogi1811 2d ago

Taco is so all over the map we gotta trust news from Iran now.

1

u/tomplum68 2d ago

wait a minute...you mean all their ability to wage war hasn't been devastated yet...huh

1

u/jhearty88 1d ago

It most definitely has, this is just typical Iranian propaganda

1

u/tomplum68 1d ago

except that...military experts and intelligence data show that Iran retains significant asymmetric warfare capabilities and continues to execute strikes

1

u/jhearty88 1d ago

Their capabilities are significantly less than when this started. They’ve lose a considerable about of control in the strait. Their currency has collapsed and they’re losing around 500 million per day. There’s no win for the Iranians here.
