We lost it the day Israel started it.
Iran gained political ground, and America lost political ground, and has to pay $300 million on top of it. That's pretty much the definition of losing.
MoU or not, an unstable region has been rendered even more dangerous by the unforced war of choice launched and America. The world will be coping with its repercussions for months, if not years.
Yeah, the Middle East is inherently unstable and then this totally unrelated foreign meddling happened. ::eyeroll::
usa could have won the war but trump had a date with a tween at a very crucial juncture in the negotiations and missed a "war winning" opportunity. /s
We got a black eye and we deserved it. Someone should bloody our nose, too, to make sure we got the message. Fucking stupid.
Great, now that that's done... Can we get back to the TRUMP-EPSTEIN FILES (TM) ?
No, we didn't lose.
We surrendered.
And you know what? Sure. That's the right move. We shouldn't have fucking invaded them to begin with.
Fucking Trump. What a goddamn moronic dumbass he is.
What a goddamn ~~moronic dumbass he is~~ prolific executor and efficient implementer of putin's and xi's blackmail demands on him
You think Trump did this due to blackmail?
His entire history says otherwise, for many decades he has been the exact same sniveling, simpering half-wit.
Why would they blackmail someone who is so easy to manipulate for free? He's a blessing for them. He's so bad, blackmailing him could only improve the situation at this point.
China, please blackmail Trump into being reasonable.
It can't be America, must be evil China who (checks notes) hasn't had a war since the 1970s.
Pretty sure you have to have shame to be blackmailed. We all know what trump did, he doesn't give a shit.
Bro, there is video and picture evidence this guy joyously ritualistically torturing, raping, and killing children and babies.
In case you you haven't had your soul ripped out yet, go on a little quest to find out what "u9 red pizza party" means in the Epstein files.
He's not running away from shame. He's running away from the death penalty.
Are you seriously doing pizzagate but blue?
Ok yes but… isn’t surrendering claiming you lost?
Can't lose a war if you never call it a war.

I disagree, America has Not lost "it's war" with Iran, trump is an Operative working Against the United States and successfully got Iran a better deal Against the United States and our official stance on Iran. He is a traitor that worked against the US on behalf of our enemies to their benefit.
Hey buddy, the "this is not who we are!" nonsense has always been ridiculous, but is particularly insane after Trump was elected, for the second time, with the popular vote.
The fact that you think your enemies are external is part of what makes America so able to be evil.
Nice copping for the shitty american empire
Both can be true. The US is a shitty empire that allowed a foreign asset to take the helm and sabotage it.
What a dumb loser
Dumb loser that was voted in TWICE. That says more about the people also
He may be a dumb loser but don't forget he's also in the Epstein files.
What a dumb ass in Epstein files loser
THE BIGGEST, BESTEST, MOST WONDERFUL MENTIONS I THE EPSTEIN FILES. THE LIKES NO ONE HAS EVER SEEN! EVERYONE IS SAYING SO!
Americans, especially the Government, all have a collective delusion that the United States place in the world is just the way it was right after WW2 and nothing will ever change it. Over the next decade or so, reality will continue setting in...
Emphasis on the government… and those uneducated southerners who think that a pedophile makes a better president than a woman
Operation Epic Failure. The primary shows was in the southern Lebanon and the West Bank, while the MAGA led fiasco was the side show.
The problem now is that Mr Trump has endowed Iran with a far more useful option than any nuclear device: the effective weaponisation of the Strait of Hormuz. This is a weapon of mass economic destruction of unique power. It was given satisfactory proof of use during the conflict, when not even US armed forces and a naval counter-blockade could prevent an enfeebled Tehran from taking the world economy hostage.
Nukes are defensive, this seems to work for both defence and offence

I'm happy with this result. I was rooting against America for the whole conflict.
I am rooting against America in general.
America has a big ego and is subservient to Israel. It needs to be humbled so it can stop flexing its nuts and start taking care of its own people.
I say this as one of those people in America watching America punish transwomen instead of combating food insecurity...
I’m happy we lost but sad that I will be paying for reparations with my tax dollars.
