26. Why won't Iran want to damage the petro

Fri Mar 20, 2026, 04:20 PM

Or LNG facilities?

What do they have to lose? The pedo has already bombed the hell out of their mainland and the island on 13 March. With US troops willing to die to hold the island, Iran won't have access to those facilities or petro anyway. Seems like blowing up the island and killing more American troops would be revenge against the US.
