WAR

I assumed so but why not re-use all the parts for something
It's extremely expensive to dismantle in a dry dock. I would speculate that not only were the components too expensive to extract, but that they were probably obsolete. The US Navy is rapidly modernizing and instituting much new technology. It's the same reason you can't disassemble a a '70s era car and build it into a 2026 model.

Looking up the ship shows it was an amphibious assault ship commissioned in 1978.

Israel boosts defenses ahead of possible US strike and sweeping Iranian threats

Trump weighs whether a major attack could deliver a quick victory as US embassies urge citizens across the region to prepare to leave

 
"The U.S.A. is locked and loaded and ready to go against the Islamic Republic of Iran, at levels of Military Terror, Strength, and Power not seen since World War II. Despite this, we have just been asked by Iran, and other Middle Eastern Countries, to hold off any attack in that the perimeters of a deal has been agreed to. This would include the Immediate, Complete, and Total OPENING OF THE HORMUZ STRAIT, and an end to Iran’s nuclear threat. Based on this request, I have agreed, for the future benefit of the WORLD and, likewise, the survival of a successful and prosperous Iran, to cancel the attack, subject to being able to rapidly make a DEAL. The Country of Israel joins me in this commitment. Get to work, everybody, and get it DONE. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP"
 
Hasn't used a phone, computer for over 150 days: The Mossad and CIA's complex hunt for Mojtaba Khamenei

Israeli and U.S. intelligence are relying on spies and leakers inside of Iran to determine whether the Islamic Republic’s new Supreme Leader survived the strike that killed his father, and where he may be hiding, The Times reports

I'm as sick of Trump running this conflict as I am with HK saying the word "casual".
 
This is maddening. Trump's foreign policy legacy is going to be scoring an own goal and giving Iran and Oman control of the Strait, even after decisively controlling the conflict he started. What a fucking disaster.

What the fuck was even the point of all of this? They get to keep their uranium, their nuclear program will get restarted, and they are closing in on control of a VITAL international passageway. A passageway that is essential to our national security. Oh yeah, and we are giving them hundreds of billions for dollars, just like Obama did.

Remember when some of you thought my saying Iran could end up in a stronger position after this conflict is over was crazy? Is it? Is it now?
