No one can escalate because the consequences are too great. Aside from the fact this is greatest unambiguous strategic failure in American history and a national humiliation like nothing we've suffered before all within the span of 3 months, it will shape the future of all of humanity. This is the turning point where it is clear everyone will stop before the cliff. We might as well disarm and disband military at this point, there's nothing else for it to do. This was the dream of the United Nations. The system they built worked. We can never afford anything beyond police action in non-strategic countries anymore.

There will never be another major war because the consequences are too great for both sides. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5869906&forum_id=2Elisa#49906566) |

The thing people aren't seeing is that this is really the end of nation state entirely. America is irrevocably done here. |

Evidently the wall of Israel's ambition is the border of Iran. And Ukraine for Russia. Maybe the Baltics. Maybe Finland. But no more than that.

Date: May 29th, 2026 2:02 PM Author: Charles Tyrwhitt Dad My take is there's lessons learned from this operation. I don't think the US expected Iran's capacity to keep the straight closed, nor to keep its economy going and not cave in due to internal economic collapse. At the same time Iran knows the US has the capacity to come along and beat the crap out of it every now and then. And for all the bravado, they don't like that either. You run out of martyrs sooner or later.
I don't know what the immediate short term outcome will be but everyone is taking notes and long term strategic plans will be developed focused on finding alternatives to the straight. Am guessing the Saudis and Emiratis will build expensive underground oil pipes. |

Date: May 29th, 2026 4:39 PM Author: average/ordinary/typical citizen/person It is the greatest strategic failure in American history. Orders of magnitude greater than Vietnam or Afghanistan which had no real consequences, hence the reason they were fought in the first place and why Iran never was for decades despite our overwhelming military superiority. Military professionals and 8 other US Presidents understood the risks of failure, which this man currently in power never did or took the time to care to understand. But these are the situations when leadership actually matters. It takes a century of careful management and fateful luck to get to a position like the United States and only 60 days to destroy it. This short H1 2026 will reverberate in America's future forever. We are no longer the same country we we were from 1945 until this January. The genie can't be put back in the bottle and Trump may be assassinated over this out of spite by our shadow elite circles but of course that won't change the Rubicon of our disintegration (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5869906&forum_id=2Elisa#49906882) |

Date: May 29th, 2026 4:47 PM Author: average/ordinary/typical citizen/person I should say that's if we actually stop here with whatever situation we're in and concessions we're giving to Iran. The other option and in the past only option would be full invasion and overthrow but that is unacceptable to China and other powers who will certainly enter the conflict. Both options are impossibilities as a nation but retreat and slow unravelling is what will happen. But ultimately there was no way around this. It was always going to happen and a world order system where this was always going to happen was never going to last anyways. So history cannot blame Trump for what happens to us but it will blame him for being uniquely inadequately prepared and unsuited for the task.
