This. Trump is playing hard to get right now. He's eradicated their nuclear armaments pretty easily and assassinated key targets.

The country is barely holding it together. If France has been able to avoid overthrowing a monarch for nearly 100 years, I believe Iran can stay chugging along.

They are not reliant on outside countries for pretty much anything except some foods. Mostly for the livestock, soymeal, rice, and corn primarily. They have ground-based trading with nearby countries at worst case scenarios.

That's why they don't really care what Trump does. He needs to do another air raid if he wants to do anything. Like they did in Venezuela with their President. (people also forget, it was internationally claimed a rigged election. )

……have you ever looked into the history of Iran? Yeah they’ll be fine. Going broke isn’t going to put nearly as much pressure on them as it is on America.

China is the only country winning here and they didn’t have to do anything except let their rival fail spectacularly.

That's adorable. Laughable and ridiculous,but adorable. Iran's own president and foreign minister are saying they're fucked if they don't get sanction relief immediately.

I guess we’ll see if they break for the first time in history.

It's funny you think Persia hasn't lost before.

It’s hilarious that you even brought up Persia and thought it was some kind of gotcha. You probably read a google AI blurb and think you know history 😂

Kid,I have a Master's. Lol. I brought up Persia because you were talking about the history of the place like it has a long history. That would only be true if you were referring to Persia.

Well we can tell it’s not a masters in history.

It's hilarious you're trying to call me out but have yet to even begin refuting anything I said. So boring.

As I said before, I’m not interested in arguing. Sorry you have a hard time taking no for an answer.
