Iran-Israeli Conflict Thread

I watched some of the interview where Cruz was spinning the narrative that Putin invaded Ukraine for Nord stream. Tucker turned him into a stuttering imbecile with just a few well timed truths. That section alone would be enough for me to go into hiding for the rest of the year if I was Cruz.
Yes it is.
I'm telling you, Dixon has the best thesis going. The money is now in energy and AI concentration in the Gulf States.
Believe it or not, it's happening. I can go on with speculation, but will just leave it at that.
The Indian blogger claims that all Iranian missiles were intercepted and the one that did get through fell on a parking lot sounds a bit dubious.
It's not like Israelis would not lie about the result or effectiveness of Iranian strikes, and if these strikes are now useless, why would they implement a hard ban on the publication of vlogger videos just now?
This is an asymetric war where Iran is a much bigger country and can take a lot of blows, while Israel is a small country with a limited number of strategic targets and a virgin/glassjawed population that has never taken any kind of wartime abuse. They might not be able to sustain these exchanges for a long time, especially given that their interceptor missile stock is not as deep as Iran's missile stock.
Too early to call either way, let's see how it plays out, and whether your zionist side that you always seem to root for will prevail.
It's theater. Markets will be booming once again, very soon.
Apologies for this interruption of our scheduled news broadcast.
An "Iranian nuclear threat" may exist even though it was deemed non-credible by the US Director of National Intelligence, and even though Israel keeps all kinds of illicit nuclear weapons not too far away from Iran. Admittedly, it's a possibility.
But in any case, nukes probably have relatively little to do with the current Israel-Iran conflict. Technically, Bibi Netanyahu is simply doing his job as a dutiful employee of the proprietors of Israel.
By "proprietors of Israel", we don't mean brave Israelis standing their ground against naked unprovoked aggression. We mean the founders of modern Israel: Zionist international megabanksters, notably the Rothschilds (who rammed the Balfour declaration through Parliament, stitched one of their favorite trademark symbols on the Israeli flag, and got the brand-new mini-nation of Israel into their proprietary UN supergovernment even before it had adopted the late Baron Jacob Rothschild as "The Benefactor".) If not for the Rothschilds, Israel would not exist.
Remember US Army General Wesley Clark, Supreme Allied Commander of NATO in Europe from 1997 to 2000 and a 2004 Democratic presidential primary candidate? In a notorious interview entitled "7 Countries in Five Years", he revealed that ten days after 9/11, he had learned that there were 7 (seven) countries that would be attacked pursuant to US retaliatory actions in the region. One of them was Iran.
Iran is one of several ME countries that had not yet been absorbed by the global Zionist banking empire. That, you see, is why Iran is next in line for a US-backed "regime change". It's time for Iran to put on the kneepads, assume the position, and sign up for that all-important Rothschild bank account!
Of course, Iran already has a central bank. It's hard for any modern nation o fuction without one. The Central Bank of the Islamic Republic of Iran (CBI, Bank Markazi) was established in 1960 under the Iranian Banking and Monetary Act. It is the official bank of the Iranian government and has the exclusive right to issue Iranian currency.
However, the CBI is not a part of the Rothschild Banking Empire. Back in 1983, in the wake of the Iranian Revolution of 1978/79, a law was passed which required the CBI to follow an Iranian Shiite version of Islamic commercial laws distinct from the Sunni version. Under this law, Iranian banks are limited to interest-free Islamic transactions. (Interest, viewed as usury or "riba", is forbidden by the Qur’an.)
Iran is the plump, long-coveted cherry slated to occupy a special place atop the Rothschild Banking Empire. Once the cherry is in place, it can be savored with a mouthful of delicious Hamantaschen, a culinary custom associated with an eternal Ashkenazi revenge ritual for something that supposedly happened during the Achaemenid Empire of Cyrus the Great between 2 and 3 thousand years ago. (During Purim, the observant stuff themselves on bakery-fresh "ears of Haman", which started out attached to a Persian official of the time before their gruesome removal - it's cannibalism with a delicious pastry crust!)
Who knows? Perhaps Iran might even be permitted to rent a foreign-owned nuclear reactor or two once it knuckles under. Compliance has its privileges! But in any case, it's best for the US to know what it's actually involved in given the calls for US boots on the ground.
Remember with whom we're dealing here. To follow the action, you need merely ignore the theater and follow the money. ;-)
Israel clearly has the technological advantage and rules the skies - for what that is worth.
But they have made a number of critical misjudgementes the way I see it.
1. They underestimated Irans ability to strike back - even though vastly exaggerated by Iran.
2. They clearly underrated the resilience of the Iranian regime itself - expecting it to crumble like a house of cards.
3. They obviously anticipated that USA would immediately be drawn into the conflict by the traitors within.
I don't think Israel is prepared for a long campaign. And anything less than a regime change will be a disaster for them.

I hope you’re right, but we seem to be willing to get dragged into wars in the past like this
Internet collapses across Iran, say web-monitoring firms | TechCrunch
It’s unclear what is causing a “near-total” internet blackout in Iran.

Putin says he's ready to meet Zelensky if West 'stops pushing' Ukraine to fight
Russia wants to end the war in Ukraine "as soon as possible," preferably through peaceful means, and is ready to continue negotiations — provided that Kyiv and its Western allies are willing to engage, Vladimir Putin said.

Putin is a man unlike any other. I read these things and I'm just amazed at this specimen of masculinity and devotion to higher ideals. I can't even make sense of his actual position and what purpose Russia serves, he's just that good. A real poker player, he's waiting for his enemies to not win. That's talent.
- Existential War? Unfazed.
- He hates nazi crime, conducts police anti-terrorist operations with the military.
- Enemies of Russia? Forgiven.
- Friends of Russia? He respects their space.
- Geopolitics? He values friendship over strategic maneuvering.
- The Great Satan? A potential economic partner.
- Distant wars? Respecter of both sides.
- Another alpha in the room? He lets him take the reins.
- Domestic problems? He orders his government take some time at home to meditate on them.
- Economic and military partnerships with Russia? He's pro-choice.
- Defense industry? He think guns are evil, only defensive systems are moral.
Apparently, we are going to bomb the hell out of Iran. What a mess..
Iran is threatening, something . Nukes? Some other weapon?
The Middle range ICBM, with an estimated range of 2,000 KM sent Israel into a tizzy. Maybe they lightly show off a long-range ICBM and fire it into the ocean just to flex and say "be careful, we can hit Paris or London at any time we want".
