On Iran it seems like there's now a mind control machine and Israel got it. On china, the usa helped build china, let's put it this way it's the bullying from USA that made china go inwards and found what works for them to be super power today so asking Xi to attack us is a little strange to me. Russia on the other hand is what made part of the soviet union a powerful block that can oppose or work with America whenever their interests match

it is not mind control
it's economic terrorism (aka sanctions) doing its job
as far as the average persian is concerned, the regime should do something about the economy
they're disillusioned
there are two major political camps within the regime
the conservatives did not do well on the economy
the population then voted for the reformists (pezeshkian) and there has been no difference

when the war starts, they'll fight
but the war and the economy are mutually exclusive

irgc special forces kill 7 iraqi infiltrators in kermanshah
part of the group had killed 2 iranian security personnel early in the day

usrael are deploying the second phalanx
their extraterritorial paramilitary groups
after iran decimated their saboteur agents

these ones are iraqi kurds
i expect the pakistani balochs to join the fray
the azeris have been relatively quiet because president pezeshkian is azeri

the paramilitary groups are being dispatched with small firearms and incendiary devices
unlike the saboteur agents that tried to raid armories to acquire firepower

⚡The crew of the US-seized oil tanker Marinera turned out to be predominantly Ukrainian:

20 citizens of Ukraine, 6 from Georgia, and 2 from Russia. Initially, the vessel was operating under the flag of Guyana on a charter for a private trader.
So why are people saying it belong to Russia

⚡Trump to the people of Iran:

You should feel strongly about freedom. There’s nothing like freedom. You’re brave people. It’s a shame what’s happened to your country. Your country was a a great country.

I remember years ago when I was a young real estate developer, friends of mine went to Iran and they did great...

⚡Trump on Iran:

Some have been killed by problems of crowd control. We’re watching it very closely.

The crowds are so large there’s been a stampede — three stampedes — and people have been killed in that.

I’m not sure I can necessarily hold somebody responsible for that.

I don’t think you can have much more pressure other than going in and blasting the hell out of the place.

⚡Trump:

We have many yards opening up, and we’re going to be very much back in the shipbuilding business.

And in some cases we’re partnering with South Korea and others initially, because we have to get—you know, we used to make almost a ship a day during World War II, and then we just totally got out of that business stupidly. But we’re back in the shipbuilding business. We have to be.

shalaye until us forces are properly positioned
they're still doing transfers

when they feel they've had sufficient buildup, they'll strike suddenly and claim they had warned iran severally
they'll try another round of decapitation strikes, very likely including political targets
the calculus is that protests and riots will intensify if they score big hits that'd suggest a power vacuum

the regime on its part has created lines of succession for every critical post
so that like during the 12D war, there is no political jockeying for posts after absences

the us plans to join the initial attack on iran
and per reports the pentagon is working around a 500 casualty figure on the american side in iran's retaliation

Icktioaxen:
Weren't you the one who bragged about how the US stopped chasing the tanker when they changed their flag to Russian?

Didn't you brag about how a Russian submarine was coming to protect the tanker?

Now you don change mouth dey talk say, there were only two Russians on the tanker.

Which country was the tanker working for? grin grin grin

Na this thing you wan use console yourself? grin


Until 3 days ago it wasn't Russian. The US chased it for more than 2 weeks. Before that, it was a Venezuelan tanker.

Russia dispatched a submarine and ships the same day it was captured. They got there too late.

You know all this but you can keep pretending, if that makes you sleep better at night.

⚡NYT: Are there any limits to your powers?

Trump: Yeah, there is one thing. My own morality. My own mind. It’s the only thing that can stop me. I don’t need international law. I’m not looking to hurt people.

⚡Trump on Greenland:

Ownership is very important. Because that’s what I feel is psychologically needed for success.

Ownership gives you things and elements that you can’t get from just signing a document.
