Iran?

We will see if Iran comes to its senses and dismantles its nuke program. There is a new Sheriff in town.
The new sheriff is the Chinese, and they are not putting up with our shit.
China can't stop us. We are their biggest customer and if we stop buying from them their manufacturing base will collapse.
China doesn't even have a nuclear powered aircraft carrier. We have 11
Carriers are obsolete.
They are a portable air force of over 80 fighters each and travel with subs that have cruise missile technology and several surface ships with cruise missile technology.
Yes Biden did bungle the Ukraine war. He should have provided better weapons earlier BEFORE Russia got dug in.
