Iran-Israeli Conflict Thread

This is the kind of hypocracy I dislike from Muslims, they say the fighting Epstein Island pedos, then this☝️🤥
It's not just Iran, it's also these highly antagonistic West based thirdworldists. These are two-faced and dishonest people, they love use moral pity-posting but only when it's of use and to further their anti-West agenda. It’s really quite sick and twisted how they will pretend to clutch pearls and care about the wellbeing of children when their hypocrisy proves they only use them as a faux moralistic stepping stool to needle the West when it’s convenient for their narratives.

Short video below is funny, couldn't have captivated the dumbass tribalism/ sectarianism/ hypocrisy/ illogical thinking any better. Without these types of catchy short videos this level of cognitive incoherence would simply be impossible to grasp for a Westerner



It's not just Iran bytheway, new law in Iraq last year. Same theological underpinning.

 

He could also very well be dead. Many in Iran understood his appointing anyway, the idea that Mojtaba would follow his father's footsteps was a meme for many and is anathema for many Shia. IR supportive Iranians have always prided themselves on being different from the Gulf Monarchies - which they consider un-Islamic due to its hereditary nature. In Shia Islam appointment happens through divine guidance and not through bloodlines. What are the odds that two subsequent Supreme Leaders are father and son?

Either way he could be dead. The cardboard thing looked really bad, never mind the multi billion properties in London. There are rumors that the IRGC has committed somewhat of a soft coup getting a dead or severely wounded individual appointed thereby getting a one up over the clerics behind the scenes.
 
DC is prepping the grounds for a combined amphibious assault on at least one and possibly several strategic islands located in the Persian Gulf, coupled with a naval mission to escort tankers in and out of the Strait. All the indicators are pointing at this leaving only the timetable up for discussion. Current oil price trajectory does not indicate immediate urgency, preparation could last for at least several more weeks/months. As for the composition of this escorting mission, expect players to be pulled in either by hook or by crook and big tariffs are on the table
My gasoline cost per gallon went from $2.50 to $3.50 within 10 days of the war starting, so that's a 40% increase. One of Trump's benefits has been reduced energy prices, which is good for the US economy overall and especially helps individuals, so it's not nothing. Are people supposed to trade this for the "benefit" of Iran not having a [checks notes] nuclear weapon?

The only thing which is puzzling is to why the Trump Team is allowing China destined tankers to pass, the US Navy is controlling the exit/entry point of the Strait of Hormuz and leaving the Chinese cut-off would immediately create an extra level of pressure on Tehran and create near immediate liquidity problems for the Iranian regime. Not doing so for the sake of flatlining oil prices will only lengthen the charade and put US servicemen at risk for the same outcome - which is Iran on its knees.
I do not understand this in exactly the same way that I did not understand why the US, under Obama, allowed China to build islands in the South China Sea and then lost The Philippines, under Duterte, to China for a few years. I have to assume that the US and China have a long-term deal about trade and shipping that is relevant.
 
I was thinking maybe Bibi is severely injured rather than dead. That maybe they're trying to patch him up and let him heal as a cover up. If he's dead they'd have to pretend he's not for years and then come up with some plausible natural cause of death for a guy who looks pretty healthy.
If they did it for 8 years with Sharon I don't expect anything more noble.
