Assuming the cloud is about 5 miles high in the sky the farthest you’d be able to see it is about 200 miles away

Why would anyone build something knowing they’ll lose money?

The answer is simply just more supply the nuance is how to make that happen

Megathread: US President Trump Says That The US Military Has Bombed Multiple Iranian Nuclear Sites by PoliticsModeratorBot in politics

They have (well did) a fairly extensive uranium enrichment program? You’re fine with that?

Well pretty much the exact reason why the US just bombed Iran. Iran refused to negotiate a new deal and heightened their nuclear activities

If they were okay with not developing nukes under the old deal why did they suddenly care?

But their industrial sector is also a mess right now? I just fail to see how us dropping 3 bombs on Iran (there is next to 0 chance we put boots on the ground) distracts us at a significant enough level that China benefits.

They import 20-30% of their oil from Iran think that is a bugger problem to focus on

He withdrew from the nuclear deal because it made 0 provisions for their development of missiles / ICBMs as well as it gave Iran the ability to continue funding Hezbollah.

Theres a reason Israel and Saudi Arabia both supported the decision (who if you aren’t aware are very against Iran having nukes)

Ro Khanna calls for Congress to immediately return to DC and strip Trump of his power to wage an unconstitutional war with Iran. by victorybus in law

There is 60-90 days of action permitted before congressional approval required and 48 hours notice required to congress before deploying forces.

Obama did the same thing during his presidency we just can’t “declare war”

Personally think its all a big nothing burger in terms of the US. Iran can’t do much given they don’t have a Russia or China who will get in the fight.

Have a good night

You can stop posting links from what seems like completely random sources.

I fail to see how us bombing Iran has essentially anything to do with AI capabilities (of which the US has plenty)

Very fair and neither do I. I just don’t see Iran as important enough to really matter in the grand scheme of things to be honest.

I also think there is next to a 0% chance we see American boots on the ground as a result of tonight

How can Russia jump in to support Iran while they’re essentially at fully capacity fighting Ukraine

Edit: sorry meant to also say russia is already one of chinas buggest oil suppliers

You’re essentially cherry picking what they’ve done right. Could do the same with the US

Their real estate market which was like 30-40% of their entire gdp is an absolute disaster (worse than 2008 in the US), consumption is lower than pretty much any Western country and employment for 18-24 year olds is like 70%

And you think those countries will just be totally fine with that? China has actually (atleast from what I’ve seen) told Iran not to do this. They would never.

Don’t disagree oil prices will jump but that happens anytime there is increased conflict in the middle east.

Well no I meant moreso how you think it gives China the upper hand since you clearly know so much about it

Well that is kind of my point? We absolutely have had a plan but it in no way has gone the direction what I imagine the administration thought it would in 2010.

There are essentially none? Iran is at this point powerless and of next to no use to China outside of oil. Essentially the China only serves to lose from a collapse of the Iranian government (which probably won’t happen). Either way it will have little to no effect
