The Real Reason Krasnov Surrendered [View all]

Not many folks getting it yet. Krasnov was going to bomb Iran back to the Stone Age. Open up Hormuz or we will bomb power plants and bridges. We wake up this morning and Krasnov surrendered, gave control of Hormuz to Iran, allowed them to illegally collect tolls.

What happened was Admiral Brad Cooper - the head of CENTCOM. Whiskey Pete suggested (not ordered) that we bomb power plants and bridges and Admiral Brad Cooper said, Fuck No. that ended Krasnov's bombing of civilian targets and left him with the only option of boots on the ground, or in other words, an endless war with many killed Americans.

Thank you Admiral Brad Cooper, it is a good start for the US to refuse to commit war crimes.
