America Lost. Iran Won. Trump Shat the Bed.

America will leave Iran weaker; the Islamic Republic will be stronger.

The Bulwark
@realTuckFrumper Exactly the same as "The War On Drugs", which the world's governments collectively and comprehensively lost.

Let one thing be perfectly clear. If Trump and Netanyahu end this immoral and moronic war by pulling away, with the Iranian regime still in existence, without independent verification that their nuclear programmes have ceased to exist, they lost this war.

@rozeboosje @realTuckFrumper And any country that just got attacked and had it’s leadership killed unilaterally and without provocation is going to get their nuclear program going. North Korea is a complete shithole, and nobody is attacking them. They could slaughter their citizens at will and Trump WILL sit on his hands. With a global policeman like Trump, the little guy needs to exercise his 2A rights. For countries, that means the threat of nuclear armageddon.

@su_liam @realTuckFrumper Well yeah. If I were in charge of The Iranian Regime* and the regime survived this war, building a credible nuclear threat would be my number one priority. Even someone as thick as Trump, or at least his puppet masters, should know this. That's why leaving that regime in existence equals losing the war. It would mean at the very least that they would have to keep repeating this stupidity every time Iran "gets close" to having The Bomb.
