Van Riper,, he ran the red side (iran) 2002 war games , he managed to sink the whole US fleet (the Blue side). After he did that the game was stopped and the rules of engagement were changed , basically so the Blue side (US ) would win. And this is one of the reasons that the US moved it fleet away from Iran when this shit started Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyldesley_white Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 (edited) This is not off our making, let Trump sort it out, he pulled out of an agreement without any thought to what would happen, he started it let him fix it Edited August 4, 2019 by tyldesley_white Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inevitable that this will happen. To use the analogy of the font of all knowledge on here - Iran would be taking a knife to a gunfight if they push it too far.

Site Supporter MickyD Posted August 5, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted August 5, 2019 Anyone who thinks Boris will tell Trump to sort his own battles doesn't really get what being the USA's greatest ally actually means to UK's commercial future; particularly as we get ready to leave the EU.

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted August 6, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted August 6, 2019 Said this before, having worked alongside 4 Iranians, I wouldn't trust any of them again. Harsh maybe, but that's how I found them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't take kindly to the "Iranian" label though. Insisted on being called 'Persians'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
