Not sure that he has.

If you love peace, then all this looks and smells pretty good.

If you are cynic, however, it's easy to argue that what happened was:

1) Israel was doing a hell of a job fighting Iran

2) Trump decided to hop onto the train at the last minute, so he could be seen as "kicking ass"

3) Without any proof that Iran's nuclear program was disabled - he declared Mission Accomplished.

That is, one could argue that it's becoming increasingly clear that the United States is unable or unwilling to engage in protracted operations.

Living here for quite a while, and having a healthy appreciation for American strength - I think that this incapability/inability is largely political in nature. America certainly has the wherewithal, but it lacks the will.

That's all that's important for people like Xi and Putin to observe. Can we escalate to such an extent, that America will always back down? Will the American people support a forceful intervention by Trump in Ukraine or Taiwan?

The Fordow strikes were a powerful demonstration of America's unparalleled technical dominance and the unbelievable professionalism of its military. But we already knew this, if even some people began to forget.

Yeah, the "they don't know what the f*ck they are doing" was pure poetry.

In one sentence, he explained the situation in such terms, that every single American can understand what is happening.

Yeah, haha!

Iran fired off a single ballistic missile after the start of the ceasefire. Israel mounted a huge bombing run in response.

Trump said that Iran fired its missile by mistake, and that he was extremely frustrated with Israel for its disproportionate response.

Then he said "they don't know what the f*ck they are doing" as he was walking to Marine One.

Finally he tweeted this... and apparently it worked. The planes were rerouted mid air, and are returning to Israel.

P.S. - Defense editor of the Economist argues that Trump is likely correct. That Iranian commanders had earlier this year fired missiles into Pakistan, and it was later determined that this was done without the authorization of Khamenei.

The command and control issues likely stem from Iran implementing mass delegation of responsibility to lower level commanders in response to Israel's decapitation attacks.

Basically, some overeager Persian colonel had fired off the missile, or... he had simply not been aware of the ceasefire.

@AntV

This makes me think the Iranian foreign ministry guy was telling the truth when he said that the Admin called ahead of the strikes to provide a heads up, and to warn that it was a "one off" and not to go crazy.

Which I guess is kind of a bad ass move.

Even from Russia, this looks pretty goddamn impressive.

Bro seriously?

"Come on dude, Iran should get to bomb us - they gotta get it outta their system."

Have you ever considered that most young people simply do not give a f*ck?

When there's nothing to eat, nowhere to live, and no reason to reproduce - the last thing that bothers you is transgenders.

News / The Iran war and Poland [826]


I'm talking about family.

I'm talking about country.

Perhaps these are outdated concepts to people such as yourself, but I would die for this.

What I mean - is why does a kid born in the inner city of Detroit face a 10X higher potential mortality than a white kid in Boise, Idaho?

Where did we go wrong?

Is then this really the best time to bomb Iran?

My God - I think I have succeeded in making the front page of PF look as uninviting as possible.

... and so will I make jokes about things as I do. I have no right or desire to regulate you in this way.

Just when a girl is really trying to get her point across - truly, then don't be such a dick to her.

History / Heil Poland!.....? Poland is a pro-Nazi state? [187]


You've never mentioned to me that what I say is confusing.

Off-Topic / What is a woman? [812]


Ok.

So... in essence we have an Arnold Schwarzenegger in this forum.

I know I joke a lot, but this is a guy I actually respect, and with whom I had met. He is an icon to so many people, just like Ali.

Arnie is the f*cking archetype of a real immigrant, who earns your respect.

Mister Universe. Action movie star. Governor of California (could have been President, if he wasn't born in Austria).

I don't claim to be as athletic as Rich, but what he says, is a f*cking big deal.

Rich -
For you. You always seem to be confused if I am joking. I am not.

But please be nicer to the ladies. I did not defend you from Cargo and other degenerates, so you would go and ridicule Paulina.

Ok, let me climb down from my throne and shake your hand.

You are a good testament to your race.

History / Heil Poland!.....? Poland is a pro-Nazi state? [187]


Another person taking himself too seriously, or being completely clueless about Poland.

I have been Sieg Heiling here at parties (albeit, the Heil is intended for Elon Musk), for quite a bit. Besides some disturbed individuals that take me seriously, everyone else understands it's a joke - when coming from a Russian that has had family members murdered by Nazis.

There's a f*cking abyss, between your fancy words and real life. Wake up.

Why do you care about these nobodies?

You have Bobko as your friend - and I assure you of this. If you ever gather the will to visit, and write me a little message here - I will ensure you have had the best trip of your life. Even if you have been in Paris and Cancun.

Russia doesn't give a **** what people think about its actions. Putler, Orc, Slave, whatever... doesn't matter.

We have a wide soul, a big heart and the biggest country in the world to let these feelings loose.

Stop being so negative.

I think Rich has given up on convincing people.

Welcome to PF, username Lyzko!

Off-Topic / What is a woman? [812]


Yes, but since you are so persuasive... and an undeniable genius - us, your loyal followers, we need a more clear plan to follow.

If we are to attack Paulina for opening her mouth, you will have to explain this to me.

Please, boss.

Off-Topic / What is a woman? [812]


Ahahahaha!


Some of the funniest Russians were actually Poles, so this makes me think where the funny bone comes from.

I mean, to me, Russians are still the funniest people. Jews shortly after. But Poles are awfully close.

Something about living in a ridiculous world, that makes you appreciate nuance and inflection.


Ok big boss. But to make many Poles a permanent part of the past, I must risk my ass as well. What if I want to live a little longer?

Off-Topic / What is a woman? [812]

@Novichok

Why are you attacking Paulina on transgenders, when this is a thing that only happens in America?

You are yet to export this to the rest of the world.

How about you wait a little bit until we have a lot of transformers, so we can have something in common to discuss?

Off-Topic / What is a woman? [812]


PF is a great and ORGANIC source of humor.

Really - the main purpose of this forum, for people to flex their comedic abilities.

As a Russian, it hurts my ego - but it may be that the Poles are actually pretty funny.

We think they are too serious, and take themselves too seriously - but maybe it's not the case.

They have the same fatalistic/absurdist streak we do. They can understand more than anybody else, exactly how a Russian sees life.

Off-Topic / What is a woman? [812]


Yes, sometimes Rich is not exactly helpful or aware. But I have a deep debt before him, so please understand I am not able to criticize him.


Don't cry Paulina. Rest on my broad and muscular Russian shoulders, and let go of all your suffering.


You are cruel.

This time, and hopefully the last time, the girl is 100% homegrown. In the end - I have come full circle.

Off-Topic / What is a woman? [812]


When I play computer games, I always have the idea that my girlfriend will come and stick a screwdriver through my eardrum while I am playing.

When I go skiing with my friends, or kayaking, I usually drink at least a bottle of bourbon a day. The looks of hate I get - the Ayatollah Khamenei does not get from homosexuals.

Recently - I was underwater with my fiancé - and showed her how I am able to drink champagne underwater. She immediately surfaced, and nearly ruptured her lungs in the process.

I am still a person with a fiancé. This tells me that what you say cannot be 100% true. Somewhere, deep inside women, is something that is attracted to such pieces of trash.

WELL THAT'S WHAT IT IS!

Why is Paulina getting so angry?

@AntV

You seem to have had a much more glamorous experience of the city than I have.

Most of my experience of the city, consists of sitting in a moldy bathroom of a pre-war apartment - smoking a dirty bong and watching public access television at 2 am.

If visiting back home, the majority of the time consists of pretending that I am an interesting person in New York, with a vibrant social life. But more often than not it also ends in someone's apartment in a bathroom or a balcony, smoking Marlboro Reds in a 12 sq ft place with 4 200 lb dudes.

Most of my intelligence is toilet/bathroom derived.

Not the sort of thing you're likely looking for.

Some advice also for Iran - last time Moscow took someone's gold reserve for safekeeping it never returned it.

Stalin simply claimed he doesn't recognize the new fascist government in Madrid.

That's not to say that storing your money in the West is a good idea either - as we Russians can tell you.
