President Trump just posted that Kharg Island is “being blown to smithereens.”
Classic Trump! :ROFLMAO: I think this is why President Trump resonates with lowlifes like myself. He knows how to get down in the mud and really sling it, and that really gets the snobby upper crusts panties in a bunch. YOU CAN'T SAY STUFF LIKE THAT they cry and when he does it really gets them twisted! :ROFLMAO:

Kharg is Iran’s main oil-export hub in the Persian Gulf. The post came as U.S. Iran fighting flared again around the Strait of Hormuz. He has threatened Kharg for months and previously said U.S. forces hit military targets there while sparing the oil facilities.
 
What you need to know: The post: On Sunday, August 31, 2026, Donald Trump wrote: “Kharg Island is being blown to bits!!!” The video: The message was accompanied by a short video showing explosions on a ship and oil infrastructure. The artificial origin: Image analysis and detection tools have proven that the video was created by artificial intelligence (AI). The lack of actual facts: There is no evidence or official confirmation from the Pentagon or the White House that an actual strike took place on this strategic island.

That is hilarious....Capt. Obvious needed image analysis and detection tools to determine....hey.....this is fake!
 
Our president slings mud like a baby slings sand in the sand pit. Ferociously, but without much precision or meaning.
 
That's why many label him a clown; I'm not talking about politics, but about childhood illness.
A child? that has flipped the foreign policy alignments of Latin america.
Secured a massive stake and control of world hydro carbon production.
Stimulated manufacturing, kept inflation steady, reduced unemployment.
Secured numerous conflict settlements across the globe. And lastly pushed the IRGC into a corner.

Keep telling yourself it’d not political

I don't know if my comments were political, but yours certainly are! Good for you if you believe all of that (your four points), be happy!
 
That's why you need to strangle the enemy's economy.
It never works, it's the people who are strangled. North Korea is more powerful since the sanctions (after several decades)!

The mistake was made in January 2026, when the Iranian people were ready to revolt. It was the time to send in soldiers. In February 2026, the bombs created anti-American sentiment among the people, and many civilians were killed.

Furthermore, Russia continued to develop its weapons despite record sanctions.

I know. Governments will always protect themselves before protecting the people.

Not really a good comparison. China and Russia are feeding them.

Iranians were perfectly happy that America was bombing them. Don't listen to the propaganda Iran put out.

The problem was that the US didn't follow through. And so the rebels in Iran were slaughtered.

Thank Europe for that. Too many loopholes in the sanctions.
 
Missile inventories might be depleted somewhat but the US still has plenty of good old fashion gravity bombs in its arsenal, if it comes to that.

Yeah they probably weren't too happy when we bombed a school yard with AI targeting that killed 156 children and adults. I mean, really people, think about it like this. It's the 2020 protests, Joe biden has started killing civilians and repressing freedom of speech and movement to the level of the ayatollah, and now Russia and China are indiscriminately bombing civilian targets and economic chokepoints that hurt YOU and YOUR family, are you going to want the chinese and russians to come and take over after joe is gone? Or are you going to be looking towards whoever killed your family or compatriots with the same hatred that you hold for your current government? The Iranians have emotions and hatred much like the rest of the world, and a fight for sovereignty and their right to exist as they see it will take precedent over them somehow being happy they are being bombed. I mean we have yet to see any kind of Iranian resistance other than what was already minutely present in Balochistan, they aren't dissatisfied with their government to start a civil war, so to broadly say the Iranian's support the bombing campaign is a misnomer IMHO. Iran is a diverse and large diaspora of ethnic groups that all have their own ties and loyalties (and disloyalties) to the Iranian regime, generalizing it only does more harm to discussion than good.
