So says Donald Trump.... he claims to have won the war..... destroyed Iran's air force, navy, and seriously degraded the army.... killed Iran's leadership, destroyed missiles, drones etc etc... He's won.... but then he complains that Iran shouldn't be mining the Strait of Hormuz because "they lost the war."
The enemy always gets a vote. That's the thing these jokers seem to forget.
While Iran is having its forces degraded, each day that passes sees a ratcheting up of the economic damage that (the defeated, prostrate) Iran is inflicting.
Closing the Strait of Hormuz...... shutting down Qatar's gigantic gas field.... each day... the screw tightens.
Meanwhile, Trump is telling us he won the war. Iran has been laid low. (so why don't they lie down and stop fighting a war that Trump has already won?
And why do they keep shooting missiles and drones, and laying mines that Pete Hegseth says have already been destroyed?
Every day... Trump grows more strident in saying "I won".
And every day..... the economic damage inflicted by Iran grows.
It's enough to make you think that this administration is spinning fantasies.

As DesertDave used to say, "a war isn't over, until both parties agree it's over, or one can no longer fight". Seems Iran is still putting the hurt on everyone else.

I like the way the Economist put it:
Although President Donald Trump says he has ‘destroyed 100% of Iran’s Military Capability’, the 0% that remains is playing havoc with the global economy.

Oh yes, he’s won the war 7 times in the past 2 weeks.
No other President in history has won the same war 7 times.
MAGA!

“We’re gonna win so much, you may even get tired of winning. And you’ll say, ‘Please, please. It’s too much winning. We can’t take it anymore, Mr. President, it’s too much.’ And I’ll say, ‘No it isn’t. We have to keep winning. We have to win more!’” - DJT

I posted this the other day. It is worth repeating.
"Stopping a battle is much harder than starting it. Starting it only requires you to shout ‘Attack!’ but when you want to stop it, everyone is busy."
