You've been advised to obtain a basic education before mouthing off on geopolitical realities you have no understanding of nor frankly the mental bandwidth for. This is not the Ukrainian army that builds fortifications in residential areas and mines apartment blocks.

Iran's retaliation was not to escalate but to put the Zionist regime on notice that Iran will not shy away from direct conflict if Israel keeps provoking it. It not only activated the Muslim population of the middle east but also drew a contrast between Iran's support for Gaza and the capitulation of the other rulers of the other middle east countries to Israel.

The full geopolitical implication of this is yet unclear but already in an election year in which I'd be proudly voting for Republican for the first time gas prices are about to go through the roof if the middle east becomes an even bigger conflagration, oil prices shoot up Biden loses.

For the sake of your sanity, ignore that man.

I also want them to win bro but am afraid, they don't have the necessary support to do that.
Iran is alone fighting a group.
These people have always been fighting in group - e.g NATO in Ukraine and other supports of isreal in fighting west bank and Gaza.
To face these western forces, china, Russia, Iran and co needs to start working in groups because a strand of broom is easy to break but a bunch of broom is not.
That is the same format western forces have been using.
Isreal knows US, France, UK and co will come to are aid for support but she wouldn't have taken the action she did last week if she knows she is fighting alone or an attack on Iran is an attack on Brics.
Fighting in groups is what will stop the western forces madness going forward else they will keep pocking countries individually so as to devour them in isolation.
Iran has been firing missiles now ad it is been intercepted by US, jordan, UK and co, can we say that for Iran? If she is been attacked, who will cover her back? She is alone
Bookmark this: Russia will aid Iran in the case of u.s support for Israel.
This aid is not only in equipments but in Manpower.


For years Russia has acted blind to the u.s misbehavior around the world but thank God the u.s mistakenly woke up the bear in Ukraine.

Russia is ready, and I'm not joking.

your statement few day ago was Iran will dare not attack Israel territory directly due to the trap you and Isreal govt set for them, now Iran has attacked your coward Israel territory directly and Israel is running helter-skelter begging America to intercept missiles ๐Ÿ˜‚ can't your coward Israel fight alone? That should tell you that Israel is not a state its just America toy boy that can't do anything without being given go ahead from the white house๐Ÿค” next time we talk about a strong nation don't ever talk about that America toy called Israel again! Can a kid who cant take any actions without first informing his father called himself a real man?No, your coward Israel dare not do anything without being given go ahead from Whitehouse and now that they have been remote controlled by Whitehouse not to retaliate them no born Israel well to do any shit until their remote control give them go ahead which I don't think will happen again so take your defeat in peace and stay on your Iran dare not attack Israel from it territory you have been telling us since ๐Ÿ˜‚
first you don't need to lie, we are not at war, the lie that I said something is a big one, this is not a jih........

second, the only thing protecting Iran, Hamas, Yemen, Lebanon is the USA, because if you leave all of them with Israel in they will have surrendered or counting the cost by now. I know it is bitter but that is the truth.

"No man is an island"........we have friends and family for a reason. Iran have Russia and china for protection, Israel have USA, UK etc as allies.
that is simple enough.

you Hamas boiz follow the same pattern everytime. you will attack and start claiming victim at the end of the whole process.

And I a still correct, Iran did not hit anything, just another empty base pattern, that is the best Iran can do. 100+ missiles, 100+ drone yet nothing to show for it.

Jordan, USA and UK helped Israeli military else the those drones and missiles would have overpowered Israeli defence capabilities.
The allies spent over 500M dollars doing that yesterday according to USA media.
Imagine that kind of money after Iranian missiles that cost less than 20M dollars combined and the hypersonic missiles was never intercepted because they are the ones that hit the airbase.


Reason Hezb militias attacked first, was to make Isreali launched a lot of anti rockets defence systems.

Go and check what Ukraine government and people were saying about USA and allies helping Isreali military

This is too complicated for the average Western fanboy to comprehend. The last time I mentioned how much USA was wasting to stop Houthi missiles/drones costing a few thousand dollars, they said it didn't matter ๐Ÿ˜‚

Iran released footage of missile launches towards Israel

Estimated military cost of last night's operations based on the figures published in the media:

110 ballistic missiles: 30-50 million dollars

45 cruise missiles: 4-7 million dollars

170 Shahed-136: 4-5 million dollars

Total: 62-38 million dollars

The collective USA,UK and Israel spent over 2 billion dollars defending Israel

Embassy housing the mastermind of the October 7th attack who was killed inside. That's fair enough

No, I don't think so.
You can kill that person outside the embassy and not inside.
It is as good as killing the person in Iran.
Embassy symbolizes a country.
If your main house/duplex is in lagos but you have a mini flat in Ibadan with workers, destroying your mini house in Ibadan is as good as attacking your house in Lagos.

While I agree with most of what you said up there, I don't think Israel nor US would use nuke on Iran should Iran strike hard at them. Truth be told, this whole thing isn't good for the US right now, let alone Israel. The US have no stomach for a wide regional war right now because it would force oil prices to skyrocket above the roof, which is not good for the current US and European economies, especially at a time when they are trying to keep pace with a runaway China in consumer goods manufacturing. Besides, US bases in the Middle East would suffer unprecedented attacks and casualties from multiple angles, and the chances that they can muster an effective deterrence is becoming slim every day. Jordan and Qatar just told the US that they would not allow their airspace to be used as staging ground of attack against Iran. Turkey just did the same thing now. Why? Not just because Israel is getting on everyone's nerves, but also because the US is gradually losing grip on the region where Iran has a massive influence that can really do a lot of damage.

Lastly, elections are close by in the US, and the last thing the Biden's admin wants to see are body bags of US service men returning home for burial. That would effectively give Trump a free ticket to the oval office.

So, looking at it from these angle, you can see why the US is in a tight corner politically and economically. That's why they're trying to make some concessions with the Houthis, and now you have Iran and Israel at loggerheads. Either way, the US is screwed except if they can come up with some backdoor agreement with Iran that would deflate the potential retaliatory strike in its extent in exchange for a "feinted" one that would act like an equilibrium while everyone goes home with some few grumblings but a better and safer ending.

In time past, the US could simply have gotten Russia to do this, but with their sins everywhere in Ukraine against the bear, that channel is forever closed (maybe until when Trump wins again). Knowing this, they went to China for help with the situation, but like I said earlier, Israel's action lately has gotten to everyone, and so the Chinese simply told them to Bleep off. So the US is back to square one again....to that screw edge where Netanyahu has placed it on. Honestly, to an extent, I feel sorry for the US right now.

Appleyard, sincerely speaking it's been in a long while i read a completely intelligent packed analysed article from anyone here, you don't seemed and sound like a Nigerian, or at least if you are, i bet you must be very a very brilliant nigerian who is exposed too.. i wish we could meet in person to engage more in intelligent chats. Needless to say you nailed everything there, all points raised there in your article are not just pure real life facts but also philosophy for the wise to ponder upon.. Again, nice job. thumps up!!
