Unprofessional and unprepared leaders, both in the US and EU.
That’s what Germany wants USA to lose. Iran is skillfully negotiating? Is that what European so happy about? Weak country speaks this way. European cares only about their own pockets. Not the safety of the world.
That’s hilarious! The US boot is on the Iranian economies throat. This is nothing like Afghanistan or Iraq. Go talk to your buddy in Beijing or Moscow.
I really hope EU does not send military to Iran. Make a deal for oil with them stop sanctions en let the US suck it.
Germany watching USA vs Iran like: 👀 ‘this ain’t going as planned 😅
😂
Iran has never won a war….. But never lost a negotiation
👍
The sycophantic chancellor (who replaced the cowardly chancellor), who is fully in Israel’s side finally is forced to admit what the informed public already knew. (Informed public = people who get news from journalists).
Uh… I think a blockade eliminating the majority of Iran's monthly revenue and potentially threatening their long term oil production is a pretty good strategy.
Europeans hate Trump so much they would rather the theocratic, authoritarian regime in Iran win even tho it's in Europe's long-term best interest for the US to succeed in this conflict.
Correction: Trump, Vance, Hegseth and Rubio are humiliating America. It’s all self-inflicted. Signed, Disgusted American.
The United Staes is the laughing stock of the world! Such an utter embarrassment!
