I am just glad the war risk is gone and I can go back to being retarded. Example of being a retard, I keep putting low buy limits on RKLB in 24 hour markets and then go about my evening, preparing dinner, eating dinner watching TV etc., and when I hear the ding, I go place a high limit on selling those shares, and then when I hear that ding, I repeat.  Crazy swings in 24 hour markets, and they get even crazier in early morning hours but sometimes I have to sleep. Financial farting in bathtub. Its fun and making money is always good. 

I wish I knew what the fuck that means because I want to make money too!  Tell me more about these dings you hear

Obviously just trolling you.

All that matters is we won this war!!! -MAGA 

[OzTitan]

Now is the time for Trump's alternative media consumption (and FoxNews I guess?) and yes men to appease and frame this as a US victory, and frame most of the Iran originated 10 point agreement as a success. There has got to be some benefit to the misinformation world we live in, let it work its magic now.

 

I know people rightly point out how insane this is but him being insulated and living in a different information reality could help here, assuming you believe the best thing for the world is we accept the gains Iran has achieved and move on.

Retard bot needs more data before making decisive conclusions on the war. 
So far the score is America 69 - IRGC 13

See you in a couple weeks or months.  Take a break from the war, watch the Mets beat the Pirates, speculate on the draft, and chill out, buddy.  Take deep breaths.  

You said control of the uranium and regime change were necessary for the US to "win".  How's that working out?

I'm pretty sure Trump doesn't necessarily need regime change. 

I wouldn't be satisfied until the regime is completely different.  But yeah, the uranium should be taken from them or completely destroyed. 

BTW, depending on how you define it, the first, second, and third string players within the IRGC leadership been annihilated.  So in that sense, regime change already happened.  Hopefully the fanatics will figure out that they've been brainwashed very soon.  

I'm pretty sure they know their religious fanaticism is just a facade.  Their family members were living a haram lifestyle in LA while they execute normie women in Iran for a lot less.   

 

The names have changed, but the regime in charge hasn't.  Keep trying.

 

And btw, Trump spoke from the beginning about now was the time for the Iranian people to rise up.  Didn't happen. The Mullahs and the revolutionary guard still run the country.

@IsntLifeFunny Remember that band from like 99, maybe 2000 Lifehouse?   Hanging By a Moment?   Was huge for like six months then the song basically erased itself from everything.  Swear to God haven’t heard that song in at least 15-20 years until me and a buddy were cutting up about high school and we looked it up to laugh.  But it was huge then.  At our talent show that year in school - the cool local kid band covered it and tore the house down.   
 

Probably wondering where this is going…much like I am with the multiple random tags in conversations (in the hundreds of pages I haven’t read or engaged in)….but anyway, it reminded me of that.  If you think there’s a deeper meaning to everything I posted…there isn’t.   Anyway…Lifehouse!

Somewhere in this thread I responded to ctm that when all was said and done Iran would make out like bandits negotiating with Trump, because he's a complete moron

Yup, something on the order of Iran could get a great deal.

If we are negotiating on the basis of the Iranian 10 point peace plan, there is no way they are handing over the enriched uranium that supposedly caused us to attack in the first place.
