"Paper tiger? That's the 2nd stupidest thing I've read so far. Congrats." - Dumbass Dope.

You should read some of your posts. If you read them you would realize that his comment wouldn't even make the top ten dumbest things so far.

"The "paper tiger" merely eliminated an entire Air Force, Navy and command structure in like a week." - More Dumbass Dope

This would be far up on the list of dumb.

It always amazes when the Cultists use the destruction of Iran's Air Force and Navy as a significant achievements in the war. Here is a clue Dumbass, no one was ever worried about Iran's Air Force or Navy. No one. Not even Israel. The reason was that like your logic skills, the Iranian Air Force and Navy were a joke. They were flying 50 year old planes that they couldn't spare parts for and barely ever flew. Their "deep water" Navy barely ever went more than a few dozen miles (or a few days sailing) away from the Iranian coast and spent way more time docked in port that at sea. The reasons they were a joke is what made them so easy to destroy. It is fairly easy to sink a destroyer tied up at a pier. It is easy to destroy a 50 year old plane sitting on tarmac being cannibalized for spare parts for the few planes that still could get off the ground.

You are making the same mistakes that Trump idiotically made. You are confusing military war with diplomatic goals.

The biggest issues were Iran's nuclear program and their drone and missile programs, not their Air Force and Navy. You are crowing about destroying the wrong targets.

Our knowledge of the state of Iran's nuclear program is worse than it was before Trump idiotically went to war. We know some stuff is buried, but we do not know if they can get to it or not or if it is still viable. We also do not know about a couple of new sites that are deeper and better protected. Trump's stupid war got IAEA inspectors kicked out of the country.

Iran's drone and missile programs are just as strong as ever. They still are capable of hitting our allies throughout the Middle East and they pushed the U.S. out of using multiple bases in region. That is the point of the Paper Tiger comment. I know you choose to willfully ignore the evidence, but many of the allies in the region now know that we cannot protect them from Iran and that we cannot even protect our own bases in the region. China now knows that if they can survive just a few weeks, their ADAD strategy will allow them to overcome any U.S. attempts to counter any aggressive actions they take. Putin knows that he can fight a shadow war with the Baltic countries and the U.S. lacks the will and the weapons to threaten him.
