Iran tells Trump to eat shit and die and then calls him a loser. Iran, "The losing side doesn't set the terms."

Trump's Operation Epic Fuck Up is not going well. Iran's response to Trump's call for negotiations:

Iran’s Ghalibaf associate telling Donny to stick it up his ass. (Quote from the internet.)

"The losing side cannot dictate terms. The continuation of the siege must be met with a military response."

Donny is an idiot, he is getting advice from a Jack Wagon who has a tattoo of a
machine gun on his chest because he thinks it makes him look like a bad ass, and
he is getting thousands killed in his un-winnable war that is fucking up the world.

Donny 3 days ago, “I am winning by a lot.”

They have a right and an obligation to fight back.

Not everyone in the world is like the US congress and courts.
They are not going to kiss Trump's ass night and day.

Chinese made jet powered drones which are getting real time and place data of our military
bases from Russian satellites. I don’t know if the bases are still closed.
