      So it was a “one of these things is bound to happen” list, not a “these are all going to happen” list.

      And #3 is absolutely panning out so far. We will see if it keeps up. But curious how you are so confident in your criticism when it’s literally happening…

      Or were you like most others thinking I was predicting all three things would happen, which is absolutely stupid because they can’t by definition all happen.

        Number 3 isn’t a prediction if it’s already happening, I thought that that would be obvious. The other 2 points are nonsensical. And my original comment was making fun of your statement that the US can flatten Iran at will.

            9 hours ago? It absolutely was lol. Where do you get your news? Sounds like they’re olds by the time you get em lol.

            Also I think there’s some juice to the US ground invasion prediction but I don’t think it’s going to go badly for Iran lol.

              21 hours…9 was the edit.

              Although I suppose you have to take my word on that since I don’t think you can see edit histories.

              But yeah.

          Yet option 3 was an accurate prediction 🤔🤔🤔

          And I hope you’re ESL cause otherwise that’s a hell of an ironic sentence. BUT I’ll use my terrible predictive abilities and bet that you are ESL. Which probably makes you smarter than me just by definition.

              Iran has notably attacked more bases, and used significantly more munitions in this round.

              The prediction wasn’t that there would be a response, it was that the response would be more than reciprocal (“bombing everything they can”).

              And yes, predicting future events is literally called prediction, so… stay in school kids?
