“No, we never asked for a ceasefire, and we have never asked even for negotiation. We are ready to defend ourselves as long as it takes," Araghchi told CBS News' Face the Nation. "And this is what we have done so far, and we continue to do that until President Trump comes to the point that this is an illegal war with no victory."

The fucking fact Iran is making reasonable and rational statements that I agree with is a wild fucking timeline.

    Honestly the post-revolution government of Iran has been very reasonable with foreign policy. Not exactly a hermit nation but just kind of a "fuck off and leave us alone to do our thing".

    (Of course there's also the domestic repression and support for militant groups like Hezbollah. They're certainly not overall good people by any means.)

    USA flourished with 'trade with all nations, war with none' for a reason. It allows us to build ties with our neighbors in a mutually beneficial relationship that increases the living standards for all.

    But somehow, when you slap tariffs on everything, treat your neighbors with contempt, and openly declare that you will invade and conquer your own allies, your neighbors will decline to assist you when you need it. Why is a mystery.

    I can smell the commie hand of Obama manipulating all of this behind the scenes.

    OBAMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

    The crash brings the U.S. military death toll to 13, seven of whom have been killed by enemy fire. Eight U.S. service members have been severely injured, according to the Pentagon.

    The Pentagon: Suck it Iran! We killed more American soldiers than you!
