       @ThatCrazyDude USA has no honor.The American people have but not the US. It is run by Jews. And that is why the US is always targeting civilians in every war. Just like Roosevelt/Truman and (Churchill UK same thing) targeted German civilians and Japanese Civilians in WW2.Ever since the US has targeted civilians in every war. Because that is how the Jews fight. And that is how you know that Jews are running the US.

       @white_male yeah, but that makes them thugs, not some sort of righteous men of the desert or whatever the fuck you think they are.Basically they're, like, we're in conflict with Israel and the US, so we'll just fuck everyone up, because, ya know, reasons. It's like me shooting you because my neighbor threatened me.And hey, if you think that's ok, more power to ya, not that I care what you believe.

       > Calls guys thugs for engage ships in waterways near their country, which is half a world away.> Calls Trump a Hero for blasting ships in the Caribbean. Many such cases.

       @Humpleupagus @white_male well, they do want to force all the vessels transiting trough the strait to pay them for "insurance", they're the only people who threaten the shipping there and they shoot at ships that choose not to go trough their side of the strait but trough Omani waters, so.... If that's not a classic protection racket, then I don't know what is.

       @Humpleupagus @white_male I like my gas to be affordable, simple as that. Also, hypocrites that can only look at their side of the story kinda annoy me, so there's that

       Me too, I guess that's why Trump and the IDF shouldn't have acted like thugs in someone else's home. Maybe this is why europe shouldn't have spent the last 70 years backing jewish power. Iran wasn't the problem. Lesson learned.

       @ThatCrazyDude @white_male People like to over simplify things, truth of the matter I haven't seen any European nation not also infiltrated and controlled by Mossad, but it's always easy to point at the stick in someone else's eye than to remove the one in your own.The truth of the matter is we have a situation far more precarious and dangerous than most realize.First the nuclear element, Iran is heavily dependent upon desalinization and dead dinosaurs only going to carry them so far, so long term nuclear is central to their survival, but nuclear power production does not require 60%+ enrichment.  So I got to wonder whatcha all think of a mushroom cloud going off in your region?Second you've got the religious element, Jews think they are God's chosen but they are rather arrogant about what they think they are chosen for, in their minds to enslave and control the world.  Don't know about you but that's not acceptable to me.And then Iran, Shi'a Islam also believes they are God's children but their view  is that their mission is to bring on Armageddon, eliminate the those who don't believe as they, so if that's what you want let it go unabated.  Combine these two major religious perversions and it's clear massive conflict is inevitable, and with the US military we are best equipped to get in the way of this agenda so naturally we're the great devil.All that said, if this were the only agenda we would have mounted a rapid surprise attack to take out air defense and then landed a massive ground assault, retrieved the enriched uranium, and left.  We didn't do that, which suggests other motivations which I think can be spelled out with three letters, "oil".So my take the US didn't address is properly, efficiently, or in a way that would have minimized harm to civilians, the Europeans didn't address it at all, now being what it is, I don't know the solution but I suspect name calling isn't it.

       @ThatCrazyDude If ash'Rill and 'Murica hadn't started this, none of this would be happening now. But they did, and now Iran and Oman will control the Strait of that there Whore-Moose, in the same way as Turkey controls the Bosphorus Strait.And come on, buddy... the Singapore ship was a bitch slap to the vessel.REPRINT:Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps attacked a Singapore-flagged cargo ship in the Strait of Hormuz, damaging the vessel's bridge but causing no casualties.

       If you want the strait open, you gotta give up something. If you want complete control, you're going to have to war for a few decades.

       I'm old enough to remember when every year there was a story about the Dow Jones taking a hit because of a few days of snow. The US economy is stretched too thin to survive a protracted war without full martial law. Europe is worse due to immigration and weak social will. Cannibalism would occur.

       @Humpleupagus @LivingSpaceStudios @white_male dude! No nobody's morally right here. I never said that and I never will. The way I see it, both sides are morally wrong. But that doesn't change the fact that Iran has no right to do what they're doing in the strait, and thus they can't fuckin' claim moral high ground when they're being pounded for that. I mean, c'mon.

       @Humpleupagus @LivingSpaceStudios @white_male well, fortunately for Iran, its real adversaries, namely Israel and the US don't think so, at least not entirely, because if they did, Iran would be a sheet of glass by now and the straight of Hormuz would be know and glowy waters of fuckin' Netanyahu or something along those lines

       I think you're confusing civil law with diplomatic relations. They are not the same thing. If you can occupy / possess the thing, or cause enough trouble that no one else can with stability, then you control the thing. That is sovereignty. There are no rights. There's only diplomacy or war. Sometimes you have to make nice with enemies. Trump and Israel seemed to have missed this point entirely and thought that they could control an entire culture with sporadic violence, instead they got a hard lesson is diplomacy and occupation.Why would Iran allow enemy states to get fuel without a cost when those states just end up bombing them again? Iran is the most rational actor in the room.

       >trough Omani watersLOL. The non-contiguous part of Oman? Residents in the peninsula's villages speak Iranian. There's limited road access to the UAE, and they actively trade with Iran. If Oman ever allowed them a MuH DeMoCrAcY referendum on whether to separate, hoo boy.

       @SiRrogueKnight @Humpleupagus @white_male yeah, that's true. I mean, they call it lighthouse maintenance fees, rescue tug money and shit, and it's pennies, but yeah, they do that and it's bullshit. Then again, it's not like I believe they have the right to do that stuff.

       @ThatCrazyDude @Humpleupagus @white_male Made me check some of this stuff... interesting:"The Iran-Iraq War lasted from September 22, 1980, to August 20, 1988, making it one of the longest conventional wars of the 20th century." And who started it? Murica's proxy entity, Iraq."The Iran–Iraq War, also referred to as the First Gulf War and the First Imposed War, began with the Iraqi invasion of Iran in September 1980."

       @Humpleupagus @ThatCrazyDude @white_male That makes perfect sense. Arming both sides, making a profit too... ash'Rill makes Middle East instability... 'Murica gets to keep fooking with Central American countries... also gets a nice drug flow into 'Murica's own ghetto areas.

       This is why diplomacy matters. Peace is when everyone realizes everyone has something to lose by war. It's the mutual drawing of swords. Peace is the aberration.
