All of this goes to show just how good of a deal the JCPOA was. It took 20 months to negotiate, it had everything the US had ever asked Iran to cooperate on, and Iran was not only cooperating but on a path away from extremism.
It was blown up out of pure spite, jealousy, and meddling from Netanyahu.
Right now, it looks like we're looking at a deal that is significantly worse in every conceivable way.
This was a completely predictable to anyone with a basic understanding of either economics or geopolitics, and yet for weeks after the war broke out this forum was filled with people claiming it would be over in a matter of days with a guaranteed US victory. I predict these people will learn nothing, and they will continue to blindly support the fascist trump administration. After all, we're in a new age and conservatives have abandoned facts in favor of their feelings and fears.

Probably not directly comparable, mind you, but still a funny coincidence.
