Trump’s demand of “unconditional surrender” will bury him. The Iranians were negotiating in good faith up until the day Trump declared war. No one in Tehran thought it would come to war, because they agreed to stop enriching uranium, and agreed to oversight. Trump attacked them the next day.
What Trump doesn’t realize is that by blindsiding the Iranians he precludes the possibility of surrender. He’s eliminated any goodwill from allies in Europe. Trump has set the clocking ticking as to how long he can sit in the water and throw rocks at Iran while declaring the war being won.
Today is the 8th of March, 2026. In eight months the Republicans must have something to show for this war or they are going to take a beating in the midterm elections. Trump has already hinted the next war will be against Cuba, and he doesn’t have so much as a thin excuse to attack. But Trump knows if the public focuses on the Epstein files he’s going to spend some time, maybe a lot of time, in prison when the Republicans finally lose power in Congress.
None of this helps Trump in Iran.
Unlike any other opponent he might face, Iran is in it for the long haul. The Persians have fought wars for thousands of years and Trump isn’t the worst they’ve seen. He’s an American colonist as far as most Iranians are concerned and they rather die than surrender to him. At a minimum, at the very least, these are people who are not going to be bombed into submission.
The moment, the very second Trump orders ground troops into Iran, he’s screwed. He’ll have to crank up the draft in order to get enough bodies on the ground in the Middle East. The American people will fill the streets and the Republicans will face extinction.
Yet by declaring he will accept nothing but “unconditional surrender” Trump must also commit to total war. It is a war he cannot win, or even extract himself from. In the meantime, the United States is bleeding money out in billions. Israel, who has a leader who also must distract with a war, has to hope they can continue to bleed American taxpayers dry.
Yet this is some sort of end game for Trump unless he can pull off a coup. He’s already the most hated President ever. He’s already destroyed all credibility on the international level. He’s abandoned domestic policy for endless wars that will not force anyone to forget he raped children.
My deepest regret is he will likely defect to Russia, screwing America over one last time.
Take Care,
Mike
But Cadet Bone Spurs has said the war is already won. So, Mission Accomplished. /S
“The plan worked. Thanks for taking off the sanctions, Tovarich.” -Vladimir Putin
Cadet Bone Spurs just sent thousands of Marines to the Middle East. I’m pretty sure he’s stupid enough, or indifferent enough, to get them killed.
can we just skip ahead to the part where he shoots himself in his bunker?
Yeah, I keep thing some tiny blood clot made of Big Macs and lies will break loose and end it all.
Netanyahu called the Obama administration and said Israel is ready to attack Iran and wanted the US to help. They were told no thank you, you’re on your own, so Israel backed off the plan. Then America elected a moron for president. Twice. It just happened to be someone who is easily manipulated if one plays to his tremendous ego. Both he and Netanyahu are criminals who must stay in power to avoid prison. For the gelatinous gob of goo, attacking Iran had multiple upsides. Historically, starting a little war helps one in the polls. Attacking Iran just may provoke another 9-11 which also could increase his polling numbers PLUS allow him an excuse to interfere in the upcoming elections. Not to mention how gleeful he gets blowing things up and killing people. What he never took in account were the negatives in attacking Iran. Doubt that any of his lickspittle cabinet members explained the downsides, as it would involve dozens of scenarios, and the idiot in the White House could not be bothered with information when he can’t handle a two-page memo.
In case you missed it Trump just sent thousands of Marines to the Middle East.
This is about to get worse.
“According to complaints filed with a military watchdog group, soldiers were briefed that the conflict unfolding in the Middle East was part of “God’s divine plan.” Some commanders reportedly referenced the Book of Revelation and framed the war in prophetic terms.”
We have a department head using this war in hopes of bringing back Jesus.

This guy in this video perfectly encapsulates this administration.
It’s difference between a public servant and a reality show…

Just a reminder that many of the administration’s people worked at Fox… a network that admitted in court that no serious person should believe they provide news because they see themselves as entertainment. His goal was never to govern, but put out a reality show to fulfill his ego.

Iran has been in war with us for 47 years and has killed around 1,200 of us–mostly military. They have also murdered 30,000 to 40,000 of their own when they were protesting within the last month or two. There was probably many, many more they have killed–as well as their proxies like Hezbollah.
The leaders including the late Ayatollahs, have a bizarre belief that the 12th Iman did not die in about 840 but disappeared. They think this 12th Iman will return after enough chaos, death, and destruction has happened.
This means that they are not ready to surrender nor will want to at all.
This also means this is not the beginning of war but the attempt to end one.
So, two crazy religious fanatic lunatics at war with each other, or is only one side involved in an “excursion”?
Don’t say “The Iranians were negotiating in good faith up until the day Trump declared war” – Iran NEVER negotiated in good-faith.
They are still enriching uranium to a higher purity and its stockpile is increasing and the IAEA confirmed that Iran now possesses over 400 kg of uranium enriched to 60% purity — a nearly 50% increase since February.

Yet, if the bonehead presently in the White House hadn’t pulled us out of the JCPOA, it may not even be an issue.

Imagine the honour and glory of giving your life in the the Great Pedophile Smokescreen War of 2026. Almost brings a tear to the eye.
The GPS War. Yeah, I’m in.
