But they still have their brains. They have rocks, Internet, and all sorts of creative ways to threaten us unfortunately.
And apparently enough weapons to target whatever they want....
At first I thought these were opposition organized protests, guess not
As I’ve said a number of times, and I’ll say again for those that can’t wait to say “see we won” as if that means anything - I have no doubt that the US will eventually win a decisive military victory assuming we put enough boots, tanks, etc on the battlefield, or resort to letting Israel drop a nuke. But it will take a lot longer than most thought.
That said, Trump kicked a hornets nest he was unprepared for and had no business kicking. Iran hasn’t been a direct threat to the US, and the Israelis have propagated the nuke lie (“they’ll have the bomb in a few weeks”) for 35 years. Trumps own Intelligence agencies told him that was false.
In the meantime Iran has greatly improved missles and targeting capabilities and is launching precision weapons almost at will after taking out much of the US/Israeli tracking radars. And 15 days later we do not have air supremacy.
I think many will be surprised at the damage to US installations in the region and to Israel.

Their Air Force and Navy have been wiped out. Most of the missiles but not all. Same with the drones. People in Iran are helping to pinpoint the bad guys and some of their arm stashes. This will still take some more time.

The REAL Reason Iran Is Winning The War
The Diary Of A CEO Clips
Mar 14, 2026 #thediaryofaceo #doac
White House war advisor Robert Pape reveals why Iran is winning the escalation war against America despite having a fraction of the military power. In a piece published in Foreign Affairs just hours before this conversation, he explains how Iran has shifted from direct missile strikes against Israel to a strategy of horizontal escalation, using precision drones to hit hotels, airports, and economic targets across Dubai, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and Qatar in order to break the US-led coalition from the inside.
He breaks down why this strategy is working, with hundreds of thousands of Western expats evacuating the Gulf, tourism revenues collapsing across the region, and coalition governments facing pressure from their own populations to kick American forces out. He reveals that Russia is now providing targeting intelligence to Iran, the same way America provides targeting intelligence to Ukraine, and explains why Trump was on the phone with Putin just before his press conference trying to negotiate a deal.
Discover:
• Why a White House war advisor says Iran is winning the escalation war
• How Iran is using precision drones to break the US coalition from the inside
• Why Russia is providing targeting intelligence to help Iran hit ships and cities
• The Strait of Hormuz chokepoint and why it threatens global oil prices
• Why Dubai, Saudi Arabia, and the Gulf may never fully recover
• The historical pattern showing how America loses every long war it fights
• Why this is heading toward an inflation crisis that threatens Trump politically
