@money2tweets@CryptosHaven@BRICSinfo Dude if they hit ship there would be satellite footage of a hit and you can’t hide that. There literally none, Iran just don’t have the ability to do so.
@TotalDesolation@ThomBrady5 they can only harass and threaten shipping with a just a few drones or missile & Even Somali pirates could do that. Harassing maritime traffic isn't naval supremacy. A guy with a Molotov cocktail can shut down traffic on a highway for a while doesn’t mean he controls the highway
@TotalDesolation@ThomBrady5 11 nuclear aircraft carriers, dozens of Aegis destroyers and cruisers, nuclear attack submarines. Iran only has speedboats & minelayers let 🤣. These are not comparable forces by far. Iran doesn’t control the strait if the us navy still has a blockade on them 🤣
@yusufvali_yusuf@RapidResponse47@POTUS Give me 4 examples of manned aircraft
SHOT DOWN by Iran? they only really shot down reaper drones which are large, slow, have no stealth or counter measures, stay in enemy airspace for hours and are retiring soon, Iran out 15,000 sorties only shot down 1 f15 1a10 and 24 drone 🤨
@yusufvali_yusuf@RapidResponse47@POTUS Bro use your brain, If Iran captured pilot they'd use them as propaganda, parading damaging trump politically and use them as leverage in negotiations, so far they haven't. It makes more sense at this point for pilot to be recovering in private then Iran capturing pilot as of now
@ThomBrady5 Thanks for the perspective, the insurance analogy does make sense, but also doesn’t a lot of this also rest upon nuclear states all being rational actors? And I agree that a China/USA war would never go nuclear it would 100% just be a conventional war.
@ThomBrady5 I still very much agree chances of a nuke dropping on USA are extremely low and I just wanted to give another perspective. But the main thing I just wanted to know your thoughts on was what do you think of space weaponisation to minimise that threat though? Or is it “dumb”?
@ThomBrady5 4) America’s job isn’t to assume nobody will ever threaten it. It’s to stay ahead of future threats before they emerge. History is full of powerful nations that thought their dominance would last forever. It never does.
@ThomBrady5 3) And the more countries that get nukes, the more others will want them too. That’s how arms races start. More nuclear states means more chances for accidents, miscalculations, unstable regimes, cyberattacks, or someone making a terrible decision during a crisis.
