Clean up, aisle 7.

The landing part would be the easiest task. Dealing with the drones would the hardest. In between would be the entire infrastructure required to support those troops on said island(s). Getting them the food, water, sanitation, accommodation, electricity, infrastructure, etc.

Landing troops, anywhere in Iran, would be an act of desperation at this point. Any sort of US KIA over 15+ would be a huge PR disaster for Trump and Administration. How long have the Marines on the 2 Amphibious boats been floating around the ocean already? 3 months? How much longer will they...

They are desperate for a rate cut before Nov elections. Can’t see that happening right now. They are being painted into a corner right now. High oil High inflation Lower labour participation High borrowing costs Falling new mortgage applications

It’s the Governor of the state that the guy supposedly represents and you’ve been AOWL for 6 weeks.

This drama could easily end by just showing up at the hospital and going to his floor/room and see him.

Heaven forbid that ever happen.

Reposting this - minus the comment about the leader of the country immediately south of us. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/07/21/trump-trade-tariffs-greer-section-301.html?

At least wait until we’ve started producing enough M72’s Dougie…..

Didn’t Trump announce other tariffs against us 2+ months ago and nothing happened?

No clue to be honest. Run 2 new pipeline parallel to the existing one and add the extra pumping stations and additives to bring them both up to 1.3m bpd, like what the existing one will be at in 2027. The 3 of them would then be at 3.9m bpd.

Time will tell.

They pretty much are handcuffed to our oil right now - they have no viable other options. Export tax it and they will have to pay for it. I don’t think we’ll come to that on our side. Trump is having to deal with being the guy who dropped the soap in the communal shower right now on Iran. He’s...

For my 2 cents - the proposed new oil pipeline to the WC really needs to be 2.5m bpd. Enough to ‘meet the needs’ of the US but at world market prices. Meaning if Japan pays top dollar, they get it, if South Korea pays top dollar, they get it, Malaysia pays top dollar, they get it and if the US...

One would think. An export tariff on oil/gas/potash/electricity/nickel would for certain rattle their cage - but at what cost to us?

Not only the left, but the centre as well….

If their relatives back in Iran are actually saying that on open telephone communications, they are either very bold and are living on borrowed time or the regime is not monitoring all communications with expats, which I’d find quite surprising.

Iran has 93 million people. If your taking about occupying any significant portion of the country, I would argue that the US could not do this effectively without: 1) a significant call up of its reserves, over a long period of time, 2) Numerous Allies providing substantial numbers as well. I...

Correct me if I’m wrong, but don’t they have to cross Iraqi territory in order to make that happen?

The ‘enemy’ proving once again that for every problem there’s a solution out there waiting to be discovered.
