U are happy.? It’s like u are seeing this as a movie.......this might usher in bad consequences for the UNited states....if care is not taken it might mean a big war.....the EU won’t support the United state on this..... unless we wanna deceive ourselves..China, Japan, Germany and russia and not friends of the Americans deep down....they are just trying to co-exist for trade and to avoid war.....:but if war is inevitable, I foresee they will take sides with Iran.... and japan will gladly return the favor America dropped at Hiroshima and Nagasaki
Lol. Sit down in oshogbo or a bear parlour and give wack analysis. Let me use this analogy, Rivers State is a strong state and has issues with imo,akwa ibom and bayelsa yes. But now they have problem with sokoto state which will generate into war and u mean to imply that akwa ibom and imo will leave Rivers and support sokoto. You're wonderful. You don't know how international politics work my dear. Of the aforementioned countries only China will side with Iran. We all know Putin and Trump are tight niggas and Russia won't get involved directly maybe by proxy which is minimal. So rest. Even Saudi Arabia which is Arab will gladly watch Iran burn to the ground because of their shia and Sunni rivalry. Iran won't win A war with the US my friend trust me.

My dear muslim brother...Democrats are afraid to go to the Senate to present thier impeachment articles..it means democrats reps will also face questioning...and it may lead to indictments...

If u don't know about US politics, just shut up...Stop disgracing black people

You are obviously a fool who thinks he understands US politics. For a start I am not your brother and I am definitely not a Muslim. I am a true Christian (not a hypocrite like you).
This attack by the common criminal Trump has everything to do with his impeachment (to divert attention from it) and the 2020 Presidential election.
Anybody with an elementary understanding of US politics would know that Americans generally back the incumbent in time of war with another country. No American wants to be seen as unpatriotic. This attack has nothing to do with religion, fool.
And Mr Trump is a common criminal.

Another prayer warrior. You guys should rather be praying about the disaster of a President Buhari here in Nigeria. Americans can take care of themselves.
I am quite suspicious of any foreign leader that average Nigerian bigots supports.
He must be doing something wrong.

Buhari isn't really a disaster by Nigerian standards, he just happens to be in the bad book of opposing camps.
If he were to come from a different section/religious group in Nigeria, he would have different enemies and friends.

More crises for Trump and an average American. This is unnecessary. Trump is committing a huge mistake by canceling the initial agreement reached with Iran.

Firstly, US can't even manage the ongoing crises she created in the past with Afghanistan, Syria, Iraq, Libya and others. Who's advising Trump? Crises in Libya is still a crisis in some parts of Europe. Germany already has millions of refugees from Syria. These are countries of smaller populations yet you seriously want to destabilize another country of 70-80 million people all at once.

The entire America with Europe would have a serious impact if Iran is set into crises. In fact, the entire world feel this impact because by the time 40 percent of oil output is cut off due to total blockage of Strait of Hormuz. The global market would respond immediately. This is not a wise choice. Even in Nigeria, a litre of petrol may go as far as N500

war is not about size and population, China is 60 times bigger than Japan but yet Japan succeeded in invading and occupying China 1937 - 1945.

Finland is a small country and it defeated the soviet union which happens to be the largest nation on earth, this happen in the winter war of 1939 - 1940.
Finland didn't defeat the whole of Soviet Union.
First the war was in Finland soil
Second, Finland was forced to secede 11% of its own territory.
So who won?

Iran blocking that strait will just be a reason for the US to directly invade that country and depose its leader. Go read about Panama and Egypt.

The shit Iran tried with US, it can even try with Israel because it knows they will return it hot. Unfortunately for Iran, I think they misread trumps willingness to actually take action
They didn't.
Trump is actually a coward.
Everything he does is a test.
If his supporters like it, he follows through but he chickens out if his political power is threatened.
He is not committed to any action.

I don't even think Trump has sold the bunker bursters to Israel yet.
They are still blocking the export license to prevent a war.

Once Israel get those bunker bursters, they would invade Iran almost immediately with assurances from America.

Okay verify your claims....... Quote in short details Israel's military capacity........
Tanks
Aircraft
Defense systems
Military troops
Navy
Then quote that of Iran......


Then give a hint on their current situation as per national relations clashes and skirmishes in the just ended decade then I may know you are saying something sensible..........


You just take your keypad and you begin to type none sense how was Saddam Hussein more threat than Iran........

If your attempting to compare US and Iran militarily, then you clearly know very little of each country's military might. Iran may probably be compared to Israel, but even Iran won't go near Israel because Israel will shoot before it aims.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/mobile.reuters.com/article/amp/idUSKCN1VF0CA

Israel has been slaughtering Iranian military guys in Syria for over a year now with Iran not even mentioning retaliation because that will prompt more aggression from israel. And guess what, Israel has been doing this a preemptive measure, Iran has even killed a single Israeli.

Meanwhile Iran had the guts to use its proxy to launch an attack on an american military base killing. Iran is lucky US is a country with systems and controls, where every action is carefully weighed and examined before execution, else it will have been levelled by now.

In the event of a conflict, even Russia and China will keep their heads far away. None of them will dear confront the US. They will just keep encouraging Iran to receive more beating.

The only thing that kept Saddam from invading the likes of Iran and other States in the middle east was the west. You need to go read the iraq-iran wars.

Iran is only still standing as a country because the us has lost its appetite for engaging in conflict within the middle east

Many people are actually ignorant just like the people advising Trump to start a war with Iran. Where did many of you think Iran got such a powerful radar that was used to drop the most sophisticated US drone last year? Russia, China with Iran already have a joint military drill. Just as Russia is giving US headaches in Venezuela, Syria, Libya and others, US would be engaging both China and Russia in Iran. Someone said US has military in Okinawa, those people are at the mercy of North Korea.

US would be stressed this time, it would be huge for them. At the moment and for the first time, US military is extremely short staffed. Besides, there are a number of structural adjustments in the US military. I still don't understand why Trump think fighting Iran is a wise decision.

That's good news for us. We sell more crude.
Hopefully, by the end of this year we'll be refining locally. So shipping refined crude won't be needed.

You were only correct when you mentioned Hiroshima, Yokosutu and Nagazaki (2nd World war Atomic attack in Japan) For others like Germany etc, you are totally wrong. No European country will join force with Iran or any other mid/ far east Country.
China and Russia are only looking for Pawn to depose USA as World power.

India as one of the World power will dance to their Colonizers tune (Britain) who will also support their baby USA. Russia, China, and Iran only have the war infested Arabs on their side, USa will have the rest of the World excluding NKorea who doesn't even have the financial resources to go to war at the moment. USa budget on military only is more than 5 times of all these yeye Russia, China, and Iran combined.

EU is USA - controls europe
NATO is USA_ defends europe
World bank is Usa_ monitors world currencies / policies

Tell me what Russia control, China nko, how about Iran.

fact

Iran can only block passage of crude oil @ strait of Hormuz. Crude oil prices increases and UsA makes money as crude exporter and only shale oil maker.

China being export dependent loses
its Usa / possibly European export market due to war

Russia is the only one possibly going to make profits in terms of war. Russia sells Arm and artillery, Russian gas and oil will sell,

However, Usa will make money from.selling military hardware as well as high oil prices.

Remember, All Sunni majority Countries too will not join Iran. Israel is also a World Power will not join Iran, UAE, Kuwait etc is also Iranian enemy. Saudi who is a power block in the middle East is also Iranian Enemy.

fact: Iran is shia, Sunnis don't like shia. Iran is even on trouble with its Arab neighbors. It will be total destruction for Iran.

Final word. Usa will still be the overall winner if Russia , China and Iran Collaborate.

When the us thinks is all settled and done, the Iranians are still getting their revenge.
Plus Iran no be small chop they have their own technology to inflict some damages on the US, once some Americans start to die, the American population will turn against Trump quickly. Especially for a guy who ran away from military service but wants to send other people's kids into battle for nothing.
