    “Oil is flowing” they say while our emergency oil reserves are at an all time low. “They will have a missile logistics problem” they say while our own missiles are practically depleted. “It’s about endurance” as our sailors try to kill themselves. It’s existential for Iran, they are not going to surrender.

      American life is still better than Iranian life

      American casualties are still lower than Iranian

      I do agree with everything you posted though, especially the oil reserves. Do you find it funny that the oil markets freaked out during Biden presidency and the Russian war but today markets are calm and rational as we suck our reserves dry? Shit has to be rigged!

        I find it funny the Americans still think they are on top because of their relative “quality of living” to an impoverished state. May the century of humiliation commence!

          In the US quality of living is only true for a rich minority, same as in the Iran or any other capitalist/religious dictatorship country where the bills for the stupidity of the leaders are paid by the people, never by the elites.

          Well show me another country where I can afford to drive for 100 miles everyday, eat 3 meat meals every day and be free to go to an open air gun range at sunset?
