    Why nobody mention that Saudi arabia restarted the war by attacking an envoy returning from Khamanei funeral leading to this?

    Well, that just can’t be.

    I just saw an ai-generated ad from the Department of War that said the US Military is invincible or something.

    All of this to cover up his pervert degeneracy. What a huge colossal waste and a big black eye for humanity.

        If we all suffer, it’s bad. Even if you want the US to suffer, which is understandable, it’s still bad if the rest of the world suffers too.

          Truly, but Trump is not going to stop. His regime has already identified their next targets: Cuba, Panama, Greenland, Canada… We are all going to suffer - but when and how much? Outside of MAGA and Israel, nobody wanted this shit but it still happened. If the closure of the straits leads to the end of Trump’s plans, it’s still ‘good for the rest of the world’ in that it is preferable to a Trump win.

          Edit: paragraph break.

          Yeah it’s quite a shame that we all put our eggs in your evil basket. The sooner we get what we can out of it, the better. Obviously a few will be broken but it’s better than you greedy fat fucks eating all our eggs.

          It’s only edgy for Americans to hold this opinion. To the rest of the world, the US is going down the path of Putin’s Russia. USA is globally hated now - even by its former allies.

            You’re missing the point while you trip over yourself in your eagerness to be edgy

              There is no doubt that it would be better for humanity if the USA were not fascist and were not trying to shake down the entire world. But they are, and they are. Our choices seem to be global economic devastation or literal WW3. The USA has to be stopped because Shitler ain’t gonna stop himself. If Iran and the Houthis can undo Trump by squeezing the economy, i think it’s better than global conflict. There will be terrible repercussions either way, but I still think WW3 would be worse. If this view seems ‘edgy’, it’s because you are more optimistic about what is in store for the world were the USA to succeed in its current aggression against Iran.

                That in your efforts to shit on the US, you ignore the fact that other, more vulnerable economies will be brutally battered, whether they support the US or not

                Your childishness is ignorant to the ripples in the pond

                I want to see the power and influence of the US weakened to the point where they are the same as everyone else, but I recognise that ripping the carpet out from under them would hurt many people, and unfortunately, most of them will be the already precarious and vulnerable

                  Maybe they shouldn’t have started a country based on genocide and slavery and then unlimited illegal wars of aggression and exploitation of the rest of the world?

                  The brutal battering of vulnerable economies is Trump’s exact intention. He started that process before he attacked Iran. You can’t view this war in isolation: he is starving Cuba, robbing Venezuela, threatening the rest of NATO…

                  We can’t avoid the bad outcomes of American aggression; they are upon us. Stopping Trump would be the only ‘good’ outcome at this point - I think that is what the previous poster meant by ‘good for the rest of the world.’

                  It’s like how amputation and chemotherapy is ‘good’ for a cancer patient if it saves their life.

      No, it’s just Northern Hemisphere war this time.

      I don’t see any reason the global south should get involved.

        The global south is more dependent on oil from the middle east, especially for food production. With both straits closed, hundreds of millions of people in the global south are at risk of starvation. The USA is fucking up everybody’s shit.

        When has the global south ever gotten the choice to not be embroiled in the empire’s machinations?

        At least be consistent in your thoughts.
