His latest comment was that he may continue to hit Kharg Island just for fun! What has the world come to when the leader of the wests largest and strongest country comes out with a statement like that. Does this imbecile not realise that innocent men, women and children are dying? To be honest, words fail me!

Regardless of the leader somebody needed to take out a regime who murdered 12000 of their own woman and kids and supplied millions of drones to Russia. Iranians not living in the country and the other gulf states want this regime gone. I hope the regime burn in hell and yes they would have used nuclear bombs as it?s in their ideology.Originally posted by Leicesterbaggie View Post
Even the Kurds see an opportunity to invade and rid the world of this evil.
Yes Trump is an idiot and don?t like him but he needs to give Starmer a pair to grow!! -
More lies Al you keep telling. The war simply needs to stop.. Iran was never a threat. Fuel prices going up and businesses like yours and investments will suffer. Have you not been impacted? I rest my case.Comment

Its ironic how he's spent months on end insulting his allies. Now he needs their help with the straight of Hormuz and he wants help for a war he started.
He is deranged, as are his supporters.Comment

Was it not last week that the racist orange and great friend of Epstein said he did not want the UK’s help in a war he’d already won.Originally posted by WBA123 View Post
Well Donald, go and win the war on your own. You started it without a thought of how it was going to end and who it was going to effect.
Did that same orange, young people loving cretin say that the oil crisis makes America richer. Well bathe in your wealth you over sized bully.Comment

One day you don’t then you do then you don’t. Make up your mind Donald. You’re a confused old boy. Time for the retirement home XXXXL orange man.
Trump, we don’t need your help in a war we have already won.
A few days later - Help us in the straight of Hurmaz.
Today - We don’t need you now.
This fat orange, racist, misogynistic lover of young people has lost the plot.
If I was American, I would certainly want him removed. I am so glad I’m not American. A man who questioned President Biden”s sanity is now having his sanity questioned.
Trump is away with the fairies. He is in La la Land.Last edited by On Balance; 17-03-2026, 05:11 PM.Comment

Maybe Trump's "excursion" (I'm sure he meant to say "incursion" but we all know how illiterate he can be) is the real beginning of the end for him? The war is clearly not supported by most Americans and whilst the late night tv hosts are unsurprisingly ripping into his hypocrisy and narcissism, tellingly, even the conservative media are now asking questions.
Trump is totally unable to answer the two most common direct questions that Americans and others want to answers to-what is the hard evidence of any planned Iranian attack and what are the objectives of his actions?. His response is -as expected-to berate the press for being either "stupid" or spreading "fake news" and demanding that his sycophantic head of the FCC reign them in and get them to only put out "patriotic" reports, and berate his allies for not supporting his war and failing to adhere to the NATO charter. (His grasp on history and Geography has always been poor but maybe he took one of his naps or diaper moments when he was struggling to understand what Article 5 meant?)
He can brag, lie and demonstrate ignorance over so many things but many Americans are belatedly waking up to him, especially as the vast majority are now going to be a lot worse off than they were thanks to the inevitable hike in oil prices his actions have led to. A recent FT report also indicates that many anti-regime Iranians who had openly celebrated the US/Israeli attack at first are now far more muted as they see the impact of all this ordnance on their homeland.
That higher US military advisers didn't foresee that the first thing Iran would do in retaliation would be to threaten the strait is surely inconceivable. That lessons weren't learnt from Vietnam (risking multi million dollar Phantoms against a VC on a bicycle with a rocket launcher), Iraq-especially Iraq!-or Afghanistan is similarly unbelievable. All the Intel coming out of the war in Ukraine clearly demonstrates 1) that advancements in cheap drones and robotics can be very effective even if your enemy has a lot of very expensive hi-tech weaponry and 2) that if sufficient numbers of the people you are fighting are fully committed to a cause then any victory will neither be quick nor complete. Surely those with the relevant experience would have at least tried to tell their Toddler in Chief all this, surely the world's strongest military isn't led by such moronic incompetence? Oh wait...alcoholic Pete Hegseth (the man who blew millions of tax dollars on fruit basket stands, lobster tails and select King crabs) is Trump's chosen US Secretary for War😂
It's long been known that whoever has Trump's ear last is the one he is most likely to listen to. The open resignation letter of Joe Kent, former head of US Counterterrorism, a man who served in Special Forces and the CIA and a great Trump supporter in the past, makes no bones about which voices he believes these were-Netanyahu and the pro-Zionist lobbyists.
The regime in Iran is indisputably hateful but Trumps actions -certainly egged on by Bibi-have already inflamed tensions in the region, impacted on the fuel costs for America's European allies and helped fund Putin's failing economy. Personally, I'm with those who say it's his mess, he can clear it up himself but I suspect that we will all feel the impact of his decision for some time to come.
In the meantime, Trump himself will continue to try and brag, lie and belittle his way out of this but you can already tell that he is becoming increasingly desperate to find an off ramp with the mid-terms coming up. When he does eventually find one (maybe further distractions over golden curtains and the remodelling of the East Wing/ ballroom perhaps 😀
then I suspect that we will sadly all be involved to some extent in clearing up the mess his actions will have left behind😞

I dislike Trump myself for reasons of corruption and greed but that said his popularity in the US is still around 39% which is double that to Starmer here.
Taking Trump out of the equation for a moment we can?t afford in my view to upset the US - already there are many over there saying they should pull out of NATO and what do they get in return. Many would say the rest of the NATO Allies should stick the middle finger up to Trump over Ukraine. I agree with the sentiment but along with Poland the US still contribute more support and financial aid than anyone else. If the USA left us to our own devices with Ukraine I believe Putin would advance rapidly as he sees Europe as weak and we are! We are even too scared to touch the billions of Russian assets in Brussels. The UK used to have a military strength feared by most but Christ who would come to our defence now if attacked. It took over a week for one warship to leave to help protect Cyprus and believe me our forces there are embarrassed. I know this first hand because a close family member is there flying a typhoon as Mick knows as he?s seen the photos.
We need the US on side in my view despite thoughts of Trump and whilst many would say we were right not to enter the war - the lack of oil flowing now becomes a collective problem!
This article is spot on in my view;
UK should play greater role in defending Strait of Hormuz, former MI6 chief says
The former head of MI6 says that the UK should be playing a greater role in the Iran war.
Sir Richard Dearlove says: "We have a massive economic and national interest in the Strait of Hormuz."
He explains: "We should be contributing to the security of the Strait, and maybe the Royal Navy has expertise, which would be very valuable.
"Unfortunately, it withdrew its minesweepers from there.
"We're already involved in this conflict. We can't sort of stand aside and say it's nothing to do with us. Unfortunately, it's a lot to do with us."
The government says it is currently considering how to help reopen the waterway after the Iranian regime effectively closed it to Western shipping, with threats of attacks.
The passage is a key route for oil shipments travelling through the Middle East, and has caused prices to soar.Comment

Morning Omeg. If this was you suggesting the orange faced man baby may have a UTI then I'm inclined to agree as I imagine he probably has.

😂Indeed 68, that might explain a few things! I was thinking more along the lines of incontinence from the other end though. Have you not seen those clips of him sitting behind his desk in the Oval office, flanked by his normal bunch of sycophants and giving a press conference when there appears to be a kind of farting noise, the woman immediately behind him screws up her face and aids very abruptly clear the press from the room? 😁Originally posted by Albionic68 View PostMorning Omeg.
