planetx:We just have to wait and see how many Iranians are for or against the IRGC. From deductive reasoning, if several of them were working for the mossad prior to this war, as evidenced by the killing of generals during the 12 day war and now. The IRGC should thread carefully. With missile launch, it can be done in an uncoordinated manner but with ground operations your safety is only as good as the information you get or the person next to you. |
I’m glad the Chechnyans were honest enough to call it a religious war. They can join the fight, they’re welcome. Perhaps they can score a paragraph as martyrs in the history book of the downfall of a hateful regime. The IRGC has a choice, 15 of them, everyone should remember this. They are playing but like the first day of the attack, their welcome ground can shift real fast. Egypt president just begged Trump https://youtube.com/shorts/XHJMt3qi2bo?si=u4TQujjRQnC8GAsw Lebanese government is begging Trump to call Isreal in https://youtube.com/shorts/rYOC6vjP-TQ?si=gLtPUOz4i5P_V56r Only the IRGC can’t see that even their citizens wouldn’t glorify their deaths. No statues will be built, no records will be kept. It’s an effort in futility. Isreal showed the world the meaning of crushing the enemy, and the US took notes, even if it takes 3 years, every soul on Netanyahu’s list of termination will leave this world. |
Can someone replace Iraq with America? From what the revisionists on this platform say, America has stolen all the oil in Iraq. Not sure how Iraq is exporting twice as much oil as Nigeria. They also want to steal all the oil in Iran. |
RemoveKebab:This right here. The EU needs spine surgery. All the radical islamists bedeviling Europe worship Iran. You’ll almost never read of a citizen from the GCC causing havoc in Europe. This is an opportunity for everybody that supports ‘peaceful’ Islam to uproot the so called axis of resistance so that a new era of mutual tolerance and respect can exist. Just to put it out there; Not until the charles hedbo incidence did the west begin to limit and apply extreme caution to the activities of Muslims. Prior to today, they had equal rights like everyone else. Wearing whatever they wanted and worshipped how they wanted. But today they’re defiant to even their hosts that took in many of them as asylum seekers and refugees. |
KobolanderSegun:Use your phone son. Use these exact prompts in any LLM. Gaddafi’s link to the lockerbie bombing and other terror related events. Egypt, atrocities of the Muslim brotherhood in Egypt. |
ResidentSnitch:I struggled to respond to this but I’ll do the lords work here by educating you. If the US pulls out of this war. The Middle East is gone. Iran will come for all of them in their sleep. Isreal will fortify and continue surviving. The US is too faraway for Iran right now, plus they’ve got a joker called NATO. Homework; read up US-Pakistan relationship and nuclear deal; Read up US-Turkey military relationship, they’ve got nukes in Turkey; NATO article 5; What/who does Saudi have? |
Svoboda:Defeat is only apparent when you put it side by side with victory. In the world of today, no one raises white flags and says we’ve been defeated especially not in the Middle East. Death, dearth, poverty is not factored into the damages. Victory on the other hand is being able to walk in through the front door and leave without being constrained. It’s taking out a leader and watching Netflix later that night. Do you know what happened when the Saudi’s tried to establish relationships with Tehran? Tehran didn’t honor the agreement. So I standby my assessment of the situation, Saudi must play its part to ensure the IRGC leave the region. All they’ve got now is their infantry. Their Navy, Air Force and missile ability has been decimated. It’s now or never. If you’ve got another option for Saudi, do tell.

motayoayinde:Like Ayana hirsi once said, America’s democracy may become their undoing. Treating equals equally and unequals unequally"- Aristotle. The IRGC is carrying out actions without congress approval, but in the US trump is facing internal setbacks. That is why you hold this view. That is why Iran can give the illusion of survival because Trump has to walk a tight rope. Already the 168 girls allegedly killed has been parroted more by the Americans than the Iranians when we all saw on TV a child walk up to the ayatollah asking to become a martyr. And of late children recruited into the military. The Houthis get their supply from Iran, Iran right now needs its own weapons. The Saudi’s don’t have to do much, they just need to make the PR or propaganda look good enough to galvanize the Sunnis. All I can say is, wait till the metrics in the market are green. The democrat leadership are conditionally going to approve the military budget, and then we’ll come back to this conversation. |
[quote author=Insipidvamp post=138915794][/quote]@mods deal with this ill bred fellow. |
Saudi has to make the decision now. It’s a matter of when they should enter the war and not if. If Isreal and the US do this wholesomely it will be bad for their reputation. Galvanize Sunni fighters, remind them of the IRGCs killings of Sunni’s in Syria. Remind them of attempts by the Shia to take over Kaaba. https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20161209-irans-attempted-genocide-of-the-sunni-arabs/ This war is for dominance and the Saudis may lose servicemen but with the right PR, it will be a worthy jihad.

I’ve said this countless times, the US is just being magnanimous in its approach to this war because of its partners/allies. The middle easterners should endure this hardship, the IRGC is a problem that needs to be resolved once and for all. For those who don’t understand, North Korea is antiwest, but they keep their hatred in house, China same, Afghanistan same, so why can’t the IRGC leave its agenda of death to America? establishing governments within governments Hezbollah/lebanon, Hamas/palestine, Houthis/yemen, PMF/Iraq and the US is being accused of destabilizing the Middle East? Ridiculous. One thing the IRGC doesn’t understand yet, a manmade canal can be made in the UAE to bypass the strait, Turkey is doing it already as an alternative to the Bosporus canal. |
DomPerignon:If you swing back to my earlier argument, being able to build cars in full or in part doesn’t translate to avionics and weapon tech. They’ll need equipment. Find out what an ASML machine is. |
Procashtips:Another obtuse African. Racism has a meaning but carries greater weight when it involves the black race. Orientalists have a generic meaning but carries greater significance when used against the Chinese, Abid- slave in Islam could mean a slave of God but in it casual usage connotes a freed (usually black) slave. Muslim northerns affiliated with Boko haram, ISWAP and co kill and terrorize Nigerians but we don’t hate all northerners. So what is the justification for hating an entire race? |
ReturnMan:Wonderful, a black fascist/nazi, never thought I’d see the day. And this individual would someday call a Caucasian a white supremacist… hilarious. Hitler couldn’t, and thanks to America, Germany would’ve been wiped off the surface of the earth. Muslims kill Muslims in Sudan, Somalia, Afghanistan, Syria, Palestine, Iraq, Northern-Nigeria this isn’t a humanitarian crisis- it’s brotherly killings/honor killings/ sharia. Jews kills a debatable number of people in a war; genocide! Worst humanitarian crisis! Your scale is broken. |
zoomman:Let’s unbundle violence to the west. Take Iran, and let’s work backwards, Do you know why successive generations of IRGC personals hate the west? |
Spreadlove8888:The gulf states just gave ukraine a contract to build/supply anti drone UAVs, that’s how they turned the tide against Russia. Lockheed has been asked to scale up production of missiles, same as Raytheon. Once the security of the GCC has been assured, the final campaign will begin. This war has proven that most Muslims in Africa equate piety to violence. Saudi condemns the IRGC but here in Africa they’re loved for their violence towards the west. |
HacheNoire:@Mods, this is antisemitic, hateful speech, and pro-jihad and should attract a ban. No one wishes Iran annihilated, but here is someone wishing every Jew killed. Hateful entities (Jews or Christians alike) should not be allowed soil this platform. |
FSBoperator:Innoson is in Nigeria. Look at the things I mentioned. Jet engines etc. The west harvests the best. And until anti- western countries understand the power of human capital they’ll always be one step behind. Most elites of the world got their training from the US or UK. |
Our educational system is in ruins. It’s clearly stated there that the missile is a land-to-sea cruise (shore based anti shipping) missile. The IRGC must understand that they’ve got just one shot. For every missile launched the launch site is recorded by satellite, they retain the right to defend but they shouldn’t turn their country into rubbles just for accolades from Muslims of poor African/ME nations. |
Someone needs to inform the IRGC that handshakes have happened behind their backs. Their egos are bruised but they fought well and will be remembered from their fearlessness. To help them through these trying times, they can speak with Arteta of arsenal. But the show is over, and that’s how the cookie crumbles. |
Mattswaggz:Someone had postulated that the artesh faction of the Iranian army are not fully in tandem with the Qud forces or IRGC. I think there’s been some mutiny in the Iranian military. A new faction backed by the west will assume power. So it’s not a hostile takeover per se. I think it’s to provide support and crush resistance when this new factional leader emerges. Machiavellian playbook. |
Iran has a decentralized government. Abbas hasn’t denied the talks, neither has the president of Iran. Only the military is denying it. Pay attention to who says no talks are ongoing. My conspiracy theory is that the president of Iran has been a western asset since day 1. The former president died mysteriously in a helicopter crash; Every powerful politician has died except the president; The ground troops being sent are to support the sect that Trump has been talking to, and together they’ll overthrow the IRGC. Pahlavi was a decoy; the west has always had assets within the ranks of the government. |
Watcharena:Cmon, be realistic. Who builds their own planes or ships? Iran is good in terms of atomic/nuclear physics but don’t over-estimate their potential. Jet engines are built by only 5 companies in the world. Chips are built by a handful of companies in the world and Taiwan is the leader. Their power plan was built by Russia and if taken down, they’ll need Russia to rebuild it. Battle ships are built by a handful of companies. With a tanked economy, it will be a very slow climb back. They’ll need help and it will come with clauses. |
And this right here is one of the reasons I can never support dictatorships. The hypocrisy of folks on this platform to enjoy freedom of speech and yet criticize the proponents of that privilege is mind boggling. Trump is worried about midterms election, a system that holds the president accountable. And we have a poorly performing leader back home that boasts he will be president for 8 years. Trump must explain his every action to Congress. Hegseth and Caine must brief the country every morning. And a slave has the effrontery to berate a free nation. Nigeria needs the North and South Korea solution, those who like being lorded over in the north, true democrats in the south. |
FreeStuffsNG:US oil doesn’t come from the strait, so can you name 1 of these enemies?? The Asians are the ones dependent on the strait. |
Svoboda:As much as we all wish a regime change in Iran, national interest comes first. So let me tell you a secret. The whole world will sit and drink tea after annihilating the land once called Iran if it comes to it… making sure even grass doesn’t grow there. You see war, behind the seen interests are aligning. China has seen the prospects of better deals in the Middle East and Xi jinpin is scheduled to meet Trump soon. Putin has been smiling to the bank. So don’t think for a minute that Iran holds any aces or value. |
Should this be true. If they successfully blow up the power stations in the GCC. Their allies will rally round and restore power to these countries within days. Information reaching me is that China has more investments in the GCC than Iran. I wonder who will help Iran rebuild all that has been lost post this war. I foresee hungry, angry citizens turning against their government. Travel bans, no trade, no income, no power. A pure humanitarian crisis. |
Turkey is a nuclear power- Muslim nation Pakistan is a nuclear power- Muslim nation So for those who refuse or pretend not to understand the IRGC situation. They will never, in this life possess a nuclear weapon or any other weapon of mass destruction. They pride themselves as the resistance and leaders of the Islamic revolution. Saudi the cradle of Islam isn’t forcing Islam down the throats of other nationals. The IRGC cannot drag the world back to an era of public executions and jihad. It’s time for Saudi to outlaw any Muslim that identifies as pro-Shia even though they’re Sunni. You cannot disrespect the birthplace of Islam for an aberrant ummah. |
America that hasn’t lost a non-combatant is losing more than a country that almost everyone of note has died; America is losing more than a country that has no water, gas or electricity in some areas at the moment; America is losing more than a country whose economy collapsed before the war and cannot carry out trade at this time; Well, if the US is hurting, with normal trade, power (except for the cost of gas), etc, I guess the IRGC are in eldorado. Saudi has began building pipelines west, the contract is out. And if anyone understands trumps body language, slowing down doesn’t mean peace, he switches plans in seconds, so the seemingly reprieve that the IRGC is enjoying maybe to buy enough time to re-route oil trade and the campaign continues. |
hollowpot15684:Borrowing an excerpt from Niccolo Machiavelli’s book the prince, it’s is much easier to topple a parliamentary government than a monarchy. Isreal doesn’t have the man power to hold the Middle East under its control; ask Julius Caesar, same reason the Roman Empire failed, more territories less control. And that’s what gave strength to the Arab-Islamic caliphates. Incessant wars between the Byzantine and Sassanids paved the way for them. And what did they do not to repeat the Roman mistake, they did a complete erasure of the history and identity of all countries they conquered, unlike the Roman’s that still preserved the heritage of their colonies. Greater Isreal is an impossible task, look back into history. As for the Epstein situation, if this government doesn’t prosecute another will. It’s America, nothing gets swept under the rug. The world should chill. And who brought it to light that the USAID funds were not being used for the purpose intended? Let me help you here, Trump. Who released the Epstein files? Trump. Nigeria cannot reinvent the wheel of governance. When it’s ready it will adopt a tried and tested template of governance and from what I’ve come to understand the Scandinavian model is the best. In Norway, everyone’s salary is public information- true transparency.

shogsman:So you see that you’re alignment, alliance and solidarity borders only on religion. I believe I speak for most anti-IRGC folks when I say, we are against anyone that thinks it’s right to kill someone in the name of God; We are against anyone that thinks humans are disposable as long as they die unleashing terror; We are against living in a world we’re you’re not allowed to practice you’re religion in peace; The support isn’t about religion but freedom and respect for human lives. |
hollowpot15684:Yes I am pro-US/Isreal because the word human rights wouldn’t have existed without the US. Slave trade would’ve never ended, social contracts and certain liberties would’ve been a fiction of our collective imaginations without their effort in the realms of human rights. I align with interest I wonder what common interest you share with Iran. Repeating unsubstantiated rhetorics doesn’t make them true it only unveils cognitive laziness. America uses its carriers to launch attack on Iran not their bases in the country- fact check it. The only privilege given is an open airspace. Friend you’re new to international politics, I believe. MBS has time and again asked Iran what it wants, and the answer is not trade, commerce, technology sharing, it’s jihad, a vague ummah alliance. The GCC have various existential threats and in the world we live in science and money is what makes the difference. The UAE can make rain artificially, they have farmlands overseas they have inserted themselves in the global value chain, how come the US isn’t hampering their progress. You should look up what a ‘theocracy’ is, it has no municipal laws, everything is, the will of God. Read the Iranian constitution. There’s no peace in the future. What do you think Saudi or the GCCs want from Iran that they can’t get elsewhere? As for Venezuela, Trump never lied about not being about oil and drugs. But the truth lies in the nuance; 1) America was being owed expropriation after nationalization, 2) America is paying for every single drop of oil taken from Venezuela. As for Libya, is America running the Libyan government? Or Vietnamese? Or Iraqi? What happened there is what happens in an unstructured environment, if Trump sleeps today America will function like nothing happened the next day the problem is the system and not America and you should get your facts right, Libya isn’t suffering at the moment, they’re building non-authoritarian structures. I guess the CIA is sponsoring the rebels in Sudan, Congo, Boko haram and my question is to what end? Somehow you refuse to see the other actors in the room. There is no where the US has been that Russia wasn’t, are you aware Russia founded North Korea? Are you aware of the Middle Africa illegal gold trades funded by Russia? Are you aware that Russia has massive influence in east Africa especially Central African Republic? Are you aware that Russia has influence in South America? Or was it not Russia that kept Assad in power. |
