If I be you, shame suppose dey catch me at this point.

You had the temerity to come here and blab how Iran won't be able to fire a single missile should Usrael attack them. You even dusted off the war in three days, yet one week later, Israel is burning, US bases and interests all around the ME are up in blazes.

Yet you've consistently done a volte-face on all your initial claims and are now salivating all over the thread with st*pid takes.

Just like the other clown who went to twitter to steal some hair-brained analysis about the lethality and supposed strategic importance of the aircraft carrier that was docked off Israel🤡.

Try go outside touch grass, Uncle three-days-decimation-of-Iran grin!

This comes as most of the radars detecting missiles have been destroyed or taken out of service due to strikes by Iran and its allied groups.

The audacity and arrogance atimes shocks me sometimes. I wonder how China and India, to an extent, see it. On one hand, you are actively scuttling a major supplier of oil to China and have even stopped another one from supplying the same China. Now, all of a sudden, you want the same China to stop buying Russian crude and buy yours.

Honestly, if not for the economic rise of China, many naive people, including myself, would not have noticed the ugly hypocrisy of the US-led West. It is nauseating to see.
Are you surprised?

Oh, sorry, brother. Be ready for more surprises. Here is another one.

Some weeks to this ongoing war, the US communicated to the Iranians that they should allow the US to strike Iran but that Iran would not strike back. That, if at all they must strike back, it must be a symbolic strike.

Now, wrap your head around that. What you have is psychopathy in it's essence.

Guy, if you go some many pages back on this thread, I did said that woman is a snitch. I never and will never trust her. She says one thing outside loud and does another inwardly.

If she is clean, why has she not gone to China and reinforce Venezuela /military security? Why has there not been any investigation and purges where necessary in the wake of Maduro's shameful betrayal and abduction? All is quite because she is either directly or indirectly involved.

⚡Saudi Arabia has intensified direct backchannel talks with Iran to try to de-escalate the growing Middle East conflict and prevent it from turning into a wider war.

European and regional officials say several countries are supporting these diplomatic efforts amid rising tensions and market instability.
Iran must not capitulate yet.

Make sure that the Gulf states commit to dismantling all US bases in their countries and kick the US military out of the ME before any meaningful ceasefire can hold. Otherwise, don't bother listening to them because, after some months, they'd regroup and come back again. A psycho is always a psycho.

someone should tell foreignpolicy that these bases were empty

-Lord
The US military is now almost two-eye blind across the entire Gulf.

The Iranian strategy really works fine. Take away the radars and leave them groping in the dark.

Trump demanding Iranian unconditional surrender seems to be a pattern of throwing in the towel.

In Day 6 of 12D, he made similar demands and in Day 12, he brokered a ceasefire. He has made this demand again in Day 6 of this ongoing war. But, I doubt if any ceasefire would come out of it for obvious reasons.

First, the people that could have accepted such appeasement are no more---the Ayatollah and several other moderates----who could have accepted their a negotiated ceasefire are dead. Israel/US assassinations made sure of that.

Now, you have more hardliners, and considering the killings of those 160+ school children, hospitals targeted and many civilians dead, Iran will not accept any negotiated end to this war. There must be retribution also by blood.

Moreover, Trump is not in the driving seat to bring this to an end. Wars objectives are realized and won by logistics, and in this area, Persia is gaining immense strategic advantage each day the war roars on. It has succeeded in destroying all US forward bases in the region, even as far as Cyprus. Yesterday, the Iranians made it impossible for a US cargo plane to land at Ben Gurian airport, targeting it with heavy missiles. The plane was forced to make a humiliating 180 and fled the scene to the bewildered eyes of the hopeful Israelis.

The reality on the ground now is that the United States is fighting this war with Apollo on its eyes, which is bad news for Israel. It can easily go from bad to worst should Russia activate its S-400 and Krassuka -4/Leer-3 systems in Syria to further blind overflights. With the majority of their
airbase staging eliminated across the ME, and interceptors running low faster than they imagined, and the economic cost mounting, and Israel collecting free hits after hits, it's just a matter of weeks they'd throw in the towel.

Trump and Bibi has lost this yet again.

I want China and Russia to covertly support iran to prolong this war as along as possible.
Supply Iran with necessary equipment needed, intels and contractors/retired personnel just like what they are doing in Ukraine.
They have made the Ukraine war very painful and long for russia. It has cost russia so many men, money and time.
It is now time to pay back.
The west are holding Ukraine's hand to deal with russia, blowing up russia's frigates in crimea while laughing at it.
Now, Iran is blowing up their won war ships too but i don't want them to cut a deal to stop.
Because if they stop, they will come back in the next 6 months again after they have re-strategized, restock and learn from their last mistakes to prepare better.
Then you start hear statements like ''Iran can not have nuclear weapons",
Iran must close down all ballistic missiles factory blah blah blah and start organizing another peace deal or meeting again.
Just like the way Russia thought starting and closing the Ukraine war deal will be swift and like 1 week which has turned to 3 years running,
The Iran war should be a pain in the ass for US that should keep dragging for years to drain them too.
That is exactly what the Russians and Chinese are doing now. There is no way they can afford to lose Iran to total defeat. Otherwise, BRICS would be dead.

The closure of the strait and the destruction of the ME oil supplies has now put Russia as the head of OPRC+ and virtually OPRC itself.

It would be in their interest to further support Iran and allow the Americans to restore wind in terms of economic disaster. This is now looking more like it as Iran continues to globalize the conflict, the economic fallout will definitely false America into another recession if this last more than a month.
Foreign AffairsRe: Russia-Ukraine War: World News, Weapons & Battlefield Discussions - Live by Appleyard(m): 9:25am On Mar 06
