[QUOTE="pariah, post: 75880, member: 235"] Please note that I'm only trying to objectively analyze the war and that I'm not into capeshit stupidity. If you're emotionally invested in Trump's person (I thought your avatar was ironic...), or if you're approaching this from an ideological standpoint, then we're almost certainly not on the same page. A drone... tore through Khameni's bunker and killed him? That's not how drones work. It was an airstrike by the Israelis. In any case, As things stand right now, the best case scenario for the US is either for the Iranians to capitulate, or for the regime to collapse under economic fallout due the US' continued blockade of the Strait of Hormuz (which they also use to sell their oil, much like the GCC states). The former possibility seems unlikely to me, while the latter largely depends on the Iranian people's capacity to revolt. Yet the world economy will keep suffering in the meanwhile, as Trump continues to desperately try to manipulate the markets by teasing another ceasefire every now and then. [/QUOTE]
