Iran declares the Strait of Hormuz closed again after US lifts blockade

id say this is 3d chess but its more like being a nation-state 101. Iran expertly played israel and america off eachother to get exactly what they wanted and give neither america or israel anything, all while driving a wedge between these two assholes.

it would be impressive if they pulled this off against highly-capable nations with well developed diplomatic corps. As it stands it kind of feels mean to big up Iran for dunking on what are effectively two asshole toddlers screaming about their toys

I know what the results were, and I don't understand what anyone is expecting to be proved here. My only argument is that our system currently works the way it works, and that wanting it to work differently doesn't make it so.

What do you want me to say exactly? If someone votes for anyone other than the 2nd place candidate in any riding, during any election, whatever the circumstances, they effectively helped the winner win.

That's a fact of math.
