They will make 500b from you, only give you 2b while regularly putting it on media how they spend another 3b as Aids, NGOs, Scholarships etc back on your country. This is your money they are giving back to you as a fraction of super mega profit they have squeezed out from you. They will use another 5b to keep sponsoring and making sure a puppet us always your president by splashing the money to manipulate your elections. All in all, they have only spent back 10b out of 500b they have milked from your economy back to you. After that? They start padding their use-less less productive economy with the massive profit they have made from you in GDPs, strong currency and huge trade deficit against your economy with them That Uranium deal with France was outrageous.

basilico: Okay You don't know about these Muslim bullies. They are all talk. They can plunge us into WW3 so that they don't look weak Iran was mining the Straits of Hormuz and harassing ships in 1982. Reagan bombed their offshore well , took out the rig and sank any Iranian navy vessels on sight . They tried putting up a show for a few hours but were silenced like kindergarten kids. Operation Praying Mantis.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Praying_Mantis
If Trump is behind the attacks they will not do anything like last time when he took out Solemani.They 'begged to be allowed to fire cruise missiles to a particular base after having issued a 30 minute warning.At least they saved face and the Mullahs came out looking strong.With Israel Hamas war ,their facade of invincibility was blown to smithereens. Middle East has a strong emphasis on saving male honour and Qisas ( revenge). Brothers and father will murder their sister if she dishonours them, for example by _refusing to get married to a dinosaur they have chosen for her and received dowry _Not being a virgin before marriage
It's all about their honour,saving face and not being humiliated.
Israel existence is a humiliation to the Muslim world all over,it's still a sovereign Jewish state smack in their midst when they have gone all out on a limb to eradicate it unsuccessfully. If Iran detonated a nuclear bomb in Jerusalem the worldwide Muslim world will celebrate for thousands of years despite majority of the dead being their fellow Muslims. I got your point. I must confess. That last part got me rolling.  Any way. I just hope all is well from here onward. The world is too volatile. |

obedience4: Your fellow Russian lover, corrected you the first time.. I don't have the time dude.
The above examples I used many may have gotten support via military aid and economical aid, my "MAIN POINT" from all my assertions here was "MUTUAL DEFENCE PACT". which your beloved Iran lacks. You can spin it anyhow you like.. I don't care🤷
You think WW3 is call of duty, Russia a nuclear power is getting bombed with weapons made from The US and sent by the US, it has not triggered WW3 you think bombing Iran would?? Like I said you are way out of your depths.
The Arab world this the Arab world that, Since the bombing of Gaza which Arab nation has taken any solid action, Egypt sealed its borders with Gaza, a pro Russian guy tried correcting you but it seems you would rather wallow in ignorance.
Is it not the same "Arab nations" that helped the Jews along with the US to intercept the missiles barrage from Iran?? Is it not the same "Arab nations" which are hosting US and western military installations.
How come will the same Arab nations, most of them dependent on the US for political and military support, turn around and support IRAN against the US chief ally in the region.
The funny think about your whole argument is that IRAN is not even ARAB, if you are a good student of history you will know that there's animosity between IRAN and most of the ARAB nations.. I ask you the other time to name the Arab nations willing to go to war with Israel on behalf of Iran??, you were mute😂, Just give me two arab nations and state your reasons, You are busying writing about ideologies.
You said Agreements, legal binding arrangements (the Abraham Accords) is mere political talk, isn't that a cliche when your own argument is base on a single fantasy "ideology" Arab hatred for the Jews.
All you wrote can be sumed as tales by moonlight
This is 2025 not 1980s.. the Arabs have moved on. You keep circling like ripples in the water. This is the last time I will dignify your myopic views with a reply Your claim: "Iran would fight alone." My assertion: "Iran can never fight alone in a major war with US/Israel." Now, you've shifted to "on the basis of mutual defence pact," which further indicates how narrow and shallow you view geopolitical realities. Listen dude, a Mutual Defence Pact is not always needed to attract support or define strategic shifts in geopolitics. This is where you've been wrong all along. In times of unprecedented conflicts, nations shift allegiance and forged alliances based on what they deemed as matter of national interest amidst the stark realities of the time. For example, there was no mutual defence pact in place when China entered the Korean war in favour of North Korea against the US-led UN forces in the late 1950. The Treaty of Friendship, Cooperation, and Mutual Assistance between the two countries only came up later in 1961. France has no mutual defence pact with Israel, but it's quick to act to safeguard Jewish interest because it feels its interest runs parallel to theirs. Ukraine have no mutual defence pact with NATO, but the military, intelligence, and financial support it has received from the bloc dwarfed any such support to any other country in modern history. We can go on and on with other examples. Even where a mutual defence pact exist, the realities of the state actors involved, the economic consideration, public sentiments and the potential outcome plays a huge role in the national psychic of nations when determining whether to get involved or not. The legal framework is one thing, the reality of getting involved vis-a-vis the opposing player(s) is another. When the US triggered article 5 of the Nationalized American Terrorist Organization (sorry, NATO) in 2001, all then 19 members and partner countries were quick to pledge their support, which most of them gave directly or indirectly. It was an easy choice to make because the target country (Afghanistan) was no major player. But when same US led some of those partner-in-crime countries to invade Syria in the guise of fighting IS in 2015, it became a different reality because of the presence of one major actor on the side of the Syrian government---RUSSIA!!!  After the downing of a Syrian government plane by the US in 2017, Russia said it would start targeting ALL US-led coalition fighter planes that flies across the East of the Euphrates. Guess what happened immediately after the Russian threat.  Australia ended it's air and military operation in Syria and ran away like a dog escaping the growling of an angry bear.  Why? Because Russia is not Afghanistan. Where the big boys play, the realities are different. That's why despite the likes of Satan Arabia hosting US military bases, they didn't blink twice in giving the US the economic middle finger by snapping up Russian oil following the unprecedented US-led western economic and sanction war launched against Russia. The same House of Saud undermined the US dollar by trading in local currency with China. Imagined what these states would do once a major conflicts involving the big boys breaks out. It's then your likes will understand the power of ideology and the uncertainties that surround geopolitics. As for Russia getting bombed with Western weapons, and not triggering WW3, well, wake me up when it's no longer Russia's stubborn child, Ukraine, but NATO firing the weapons, and let us see if EU capitals wouldn't get visits from Satan 2 and nuclear tipped Mr. Iskander.  Till then, be rest assured Iran will never fight alone. Bye.  |

basilico: You are very wrong. Saudi Arabia and other ME countries as Qatar,Bahrain & Kuwait know Iran is the threat to them. If Israel or USA attacks Iran , they will destroy the oil exporting ports of their neighbouring countries. "If I can't export oil, so shall you not" . Iran will also close the Strait of Hormuz where a huge percentage of oil transits through. That's Iran expressly stated threat.. These countries hate Israel and would like it gone, but they won't get into a foolish fight with Israel America on behalf of Iran. Saudi Arabia funded the first Muslim atomic bomb,if they want it Pakistani will send them one . Iran going nuclear is no big deal to the Saudi,they can quickly get one from Pakistan. Any law that bans sale of nuclear warheads apart from sanctions threat? Don't put words in my mouth. I never said Saudi Arabia will join a fight directly with Iran against US/Israel. I simply mentioned the fact that Iran won't be fighting alone if a major war breaks out in the region. I supported my assertions with factual example. Iran is a huge and key regional player, you don't have to like or hate it. Fact is fact. When push comes to shove, there are those that would back Iran directly and indirectly. The world has since moved on from the days when nations particularly in that region only acts subservient to please western diktats. Now everyone is looking out for what's best for itself, especially from a pool of like-minded nations. That's why you have the SCO, BRICs, which Iran is proudly part of. Based on the current realities, nations, including those supposedly western allies are redrawing their stance and balancing their national interest and geopolitical allegiance on the global scale of equilibrium provided by multipolarism--the new world order championed by a rising China and a determined Russia. Heck.. even the house of Sauds have normalized relations with Tehran, courtesy of China. In geopolitics, there are no permanent enemies. Any major war involving Iran will not be limited to the ME alone. Folks that fails to realize this will keep missing the bigger picture. It will quickly spiral to West-Asia and to Africa, viz the rest of the world in a matter of days, if not hours. Thank God you mentioned Iran closing the Strait of Hormuz. You can imagine the catastrophic damage that would cost the world economically. Just close your eyes for a moment and picture the chain reaction that would cause across the globe. The more I think about it, the more I pray it should never happen during my time. Most people don't even realize how volatile the world is at the moment. |

obedience4: Israel has fought multiple wars in the past, there is nothing uniting the Arab/Muslim world against Israel, that ship has long sailed man. This is 2025, not the early 1990s the "Abraham Accords" means Western leaning folks like Jordan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, iraq, Morocco, Thee united Arab Emirates and Bahrain Would always be at peace with Israel.. Please educate us which Arab/Muslim nations will go to war on behalf of Iran?? Syria?? another proxy lost by the supposedly influential Iran??
Let me remind you before Iran supposedly influence in the middle-east, there was a certain Egypt a once major Arab power in the region, then rose up a Saddam hussein led Iraqi, before Iran, they have being major players in the middle-east, What influence does Iran holds?? sponsoring terrorism and arming its proxies?? It can't even help its proxies they are getting decimated by the Jews..
@the bolded, All you wrote are mere speculations.. I work with lay down military pacts, legally binding arrangements not fictional bedtime stories.. I work with facts not emotions..
there's a huge difference between throwing your weight behind someone and fighting along with the person..Iran may get political, economical and military aid from China and Russia, just the same way Russia is currently getting from China and Iran in it's war in Ukraine, Iran will always get supports from the enemies of the US, but they will never put boots on the ground for Iran.. This the ball of contention, don't me wrong.
Russia and especially China putting boots on the ground for an Islamic State of Iran will only happen in your make believe fictional world, but fiction sadly isn't reality.
Sorry sir, but you are clearly out of your depths as regarding middle-eastern politics I don't have all the time to write long Epistles. The bone of contention was Iran would fight alone,and from your write up above, you seem to have come to terms with the fact that Iran would never fight alone should a major war breaks out in the ME. It is not only when your allies deploy boots on the ground can it be classified as helping to fight. US and NATO forces have not been officially deployed on the ground in Ukraine (though we know they have been there and taking a beating from their lord, Russia  ,) but Ukraine from day one has never fought alone, thanks to NATO's ISR and top-notch armaments deployed and delivered to serve the Ukro nazi war interests. Similar scenario, if not worst, would play out in the event of a US-led major war with Iran. The signs are there already. There is nothing like "Iran supposed influence." A country whose activities or when acted against could trigger WW3 is not a small, irrelevant country in the global scheme of events. Folks like you view things through a lens of sentiment. We view issues from facts and the stark realities that accompanies them. That's why you cannot see that the Abraham Accord only succeeded in "normalizing" political ties between Israel and several Arab state, but DOES NOT eliminate nor resolve the ideological hatred that underlines the Arab-Jew animosity. In fact, if there is anything or anytime that the Arab ideological hatred towards the Jews could or have grown in multiple proportion, the whole world have seen it, and we are in that time now; thanks to Netanyahoo's blue-day bombing and murdering of thousands of innocent Palestinian women and babies, in so much that, Israel has succeeded in rallying much of the empathetic world against itself. Your Abraham Accord is only on political lips. Iran can never fight alone. |

obedience4: It not about confidence, it what's on ground, you make your points. The US activated Article 5 after the 9/11 attacks and brought Nato into Afghanistan.
The US have allies with legal frameworks binding aggrement to have nations support her in case of conflict.. Japan and South korea had similar pacts with the US.
We just got confirmation of Russia activating its own with North Korea, China has a Ironclad one with North Korea. When AU threatened to attack the sahel states, The first thing they did was quickly draft a mutual defence pact to come to each others defence when attacked.
What dose Iran have?? What aggrement does she have with any military power to come to her aid when attacked??
Who will come to Iran's aid?? Russia? China??
Iraq fought alone. Liyba fought alone Serbia fought alone Afghanistan fought alone Greneda fought alone Panama fought alone Ukraine is fighting alone Iran will sadly fight alone😢 You sound just like the typical western leaning folks that usually oversimplified and grossly misunderstood Middle East politics. From miles away, it's clear that folks like you don't know or just deliberately underestimate the influence Iran weirds in that region. If it's that simple as you want to believe, the US and Israel would have invaded Iran long ago. Well, sorry to burst your bubble: on multiple occasions, US think-tanks and war planners have gamed the Iranian war scenario, and on each occasion, the result turns out the same--the US and co suffered more from a direct military confrontation with Iran than Iran suffered. You want to know why? Because Iranian influential tentacles in the region would make sure that most, if not all US interests in the region would come under unprecedented attacks that the Yankees would be unable to deal with. The only thing that unite the Shia-Sunni divide is a war with Israel. The economic backlash alone would cripple most of the western countries whose economies are already reeling and swimming in relegation waters, courtesy of the proxy war with Russia. China, knowing damn well how such a war would position it as the prime economic power, would throw its weights behind Iran. Russia would follow suit. You can take that to the bank. And once the two giants are in, you can expect a long queue of SCO and BRICS members to line up behind Iran covertly or Overtly. This is no longer a world order run solely by the west and it's years of oppressive hegemony. This is a new, multipolar world order where no one takes orders as before. It is folly to live in the comfort of your home and type on nairaland that Iran would fight alone in a war with US and Israel. In fact, a direct US war with Iran could lead to WW3 compared to any other country, Russia and China aside. The countries you mentioned that fought alone do not share nor command the same level of geopolitical and regional influence as Iran does. Neither are any of them (Ukraine aside) technologically advanced as Iran. Guy, Ukraine isn't fighting alone, and Iran would never fight alone. |

Dabronze: Let me educate you see fighting war is beyond exchanging bullets and blowing bombs there must be a good relationship between your allies to support you during war in one way or the other
According to Sun Tzu He said An intelligent military win before going to battle
Before Russia started the war with Ukraine they have already have a plan with China to support them in case of any possible outcome of war so that's why they are doing war drills together, if not because of China Russia wouldn't have overcome the sanctions
All the Sahed missiles they are giving Russia to fight Ukraine is to allied themselves Russia So that's what is giving Iran the gut that they can fight US
You said Russia is backing iran with what? Are you Lerner?
Without Russia do you think Iran can have nuclear weapons
Before the Ukraine - Russia war who is Iran to go logged head with US. There is rumor of a planned military partnership between Russia and Iran, the kind they entered recently with North Korea.

Just see how many people are coming out for him, almost as if he was an active US marine. And maybe he's an active marine and they're just disguising.
The US marines even went to pick his corpse at the airport.
https://northpennnow.com/news/2025/apr/12/lansdale-hero-comes-home-marine-veteran-killed-in-ukraine-returns-to-hometown-saturday-night/ This is not new na.
From the onset of this war, thousands of NATO regulars masquerading as mercenaries have been killed and some were captured in Ukraine by Russian forces.
Unmarked coffins were being secretly brought into Polish, French, British, German, and American airports at nights.
If they're not dubbed mercenaries, they call them retired soldiers who joined the Ukrainian army.
Now ask yourself: why would a sane thinking Polish, French, British or American soldier retire from his safer, high paying, home soldier job to join a less-paying, less equipped Ukrainian army where the chances of survival in fighting against Russia, one of the world's most formidable war machine, is 10/100%?
The more you think about it, the more you would understand why the likes of Macron, Poland, and Britain leaderships are increasingly hating on Russia as the war progresses months in, months out.
They've been funnelling in their regulars and many of them have been liquidated on the front lines. Unfortunately, they cannot spill this out in the public.
And Russia is simply playing along, so long it's not been official that NATO is primarily active on the fronts.
The day NATO would make it official that they're involved in, and intend to further ground and direct attacks on Russia is the day nukes would start visiting some European capitals.
Till then, the painful EU/NATO charade vis-a-vis their regulars in Ukraine, would continue serving the insatiable taste and plate of the Russian meat grinder. |

gashiwalesman: Russian radars can detect and track every aircraft in the US arsenal.
As much as no aircraft is undetectable, there are aircrafts that would have long gone before the S400 detect it was ever there...
These are state of the art stealth, tested and trusted aircrafts.. 1. B2 spirit 2. SR71 3. F22 Raptor 4. F35B
These aircrafts are engineering marvel..
Let it be known the US refused to sell the F22 Raptor, infact Congress made a law banning it's sales because of its sophistication... The aircrafts you just mentioned, particularly the Raptor and the F35 is the sole reason Turkey went all in for the S-400 Triumph.
In the thick of the Syrian war back in 2015, the S-400 was "painting" all US planes that were flying over the East of the Euphrates, from the Icirlik airbase located in Turkey. If you understand what being painted meant in military air war palance, you would understand why Turkey decided to go for the S-400, which was designed to track and detect stealthy flying objects as well.
Moreover, in this age of advanced A2/AD technology, no plane is completely invincible in a peer-to-peer highly contested environment.
There is a reason why the US is sanctioning and threatening to sanction any country that buys the Russian S-400. |
