⚡The United States is planning to move one or more Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) Anti-Ballistic Missile Systems to the Middle East in the coming days, in order to bolster the several air-defense systems already deployed to the region and to protect U.S. Forces from potential retaliation in response to strikes against Iran, multiple sources have told CNN.

During the Twelve-Day War last June between Israel and Iran, the U.S. Army expended over 150 THAAD Interceptors, 25% of its inventory, defending Israel from ballistic missiles launched by Iran and the Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen. In 2024 and 2025, the U.S. only procured 23 Interceptors, and are expected to receive around 37 in 2026.

⚡The U.S. has added new high-end military assets to its Middle East buildup, including a guided-missile destroyer and an RC-135V Rivet Joint electronic surveillance aircraft, boosting missile defense and intelligence-gathering capabilities as tensions with Iran rise.

The U.S. Navy now has 10 warships in the CENTCOM area of responsibility.

Final word
You're very correct✅.
A Russia without nuclear weapon would have been invaded by NATO.

There was NATO before nukes and they didn't dare to invade Russia.

You guys are quickly forgetting how blessed Russia is geographically. It is incredibly difficult to invade Russia.

Do you see turkey or Egypt doing same ?

Israel does not even have an offensive program that is known to begin with.. it all comes down to who attacked first the only nation Israel attacked first they apologized

⚡China's Xi to UK's Starmer:

The next year will be the year of the "Horse" in China. I believe that your visit at this time is a good sign.

The cooperation between the two countries will surely reach a higher level.

For the relationship between China and the UK and the cooperation between the two countries, a new chapter will be opened.

⚡Peter Schiff, who gained fame for accurately predicting the 2008 financial crisis:

The world is now pulling the rug out from under the US.

The dollar is going to collapse. The dollar is going to be replaced by gold.

Central banks are buying gold… they’re getting rid of dollars.

We are headed for an economic crisis again that will make the 2008 financial crisis look like a Sunday school picnic.

This one is not a global financial crisis — it’s an American financial crisis. The rest of the world is actually going to benefit.

The bubble is in the dollar. The bubble is in the US economy.

⚡Peter Schiff, who gained fame for accurately predicting the 2008 financial crisis:

Gold and silver are warning about a bigger crisis that’s going to hit either later this year or maybe next year.

We are headed for a US dollar crisis.

This is a vote of no confidence in the US economy and in the US government’s ability to manage its finances.

There’s no ceiling on gold because there’s no floor on the dollar.

We are in a truly remarkable place

Amid all the talk about the price of cottage cheese and housing, Israelis do not fully grasp just how wealthy and fast-growing Israel actually is. One who benefits from a miracle often fails to recognize it—but the numbers speak for themselves.
   •   The State of Israel ranks 98th in the world by population size.
   •   Yet it ranks 27th in the world by GDP.


That means we have overtaken 60 countries along the way, including:
   •   Pastoral Austria
   •   Oil-rich Norway
   •   Scandinavian Denmark
   •   Thriving Hong Kong
   •   The United Arab Emirates with Burj Dubai


More than that—given Israel’s growth, it would not be surprising if we climb toward 20th place in the coming years. Remember Singapore? Well, we have already surpassed Singapore in total GDP, and we are not far behind it in GDP per capita. These are almost inconceivable numbers.

Furthermore, it should be noted that—with the exception of Ireland and Switzerland—there is no country whose GDP is larger than ours with a smaller population than ours, and those are misleading examples. Ireland functions as a tax haven for giant corporations, and Switzerland is a country with centuries-old traditions of global banking.



Do we have problems?

Israel has economic problems and burdens all the way to the gates of hell. But none of that should blind us to the extraordinary blessing in which we are immersed here—or keep us from saying thank you to the One who gives us the power to make wealth. Beyond that, we must ensure that this trend continues in the years ahead and that we use this blessing for worthy purposes.

invasion lolz like trump said the world has changed... Invasion is an old doctrine.

I don't think U.S will invade Iran everything will happen outside Iranian territory.

Likewise Russia

⚡Germany's Merz responds to Trump:

59 Bundeswehr soldiers lost their lives during the nearly 20-year deployment in Afghanistan.

Well over 100 were partially, seriously injured in combat operations and attacks.

We will not allow this mission—which we also carried out in the interest of our alliance partner, the United States of America—to be treated with contempt or disparaged today.

hitler and napoleon invaded
and the only reason why they did not invade russia before it acquired a nuke
was because russia/soviets were already in germany and were battle hardened
essentially there was a buffer zone from russia all the way to germany

this large multi-country-sized buffer zone prevented a new direct hot war
whereas in asia where they believed the buffer zone was small
they actually invaded north korea and considered nuking the chinese

what's happening with russia today
is what is happening with iran after the fall of assad
no more buffer so they're turning the pressure dial with kinetic action

china was more successful
as they directly intervened in korea and vietnam to maintain that buffer
pakistan they've beefed up
and when myanmar started acting up they backed the military to enforce its will
no opening versus china from mongolia to cambodia
since there's no opening for kinetic action besides taiwan they're going for economic pressure
enter venezuela, iran, and russia

the axis is dealing with grade a psychopaths
nukes or no nukes they're coming for everyone
but nukes give you deterrence against the kind of action they're threatening khamenei with
if iran had nukes, they'd only be using economic action and subterfuge (terrorism/insurgency)
let's not forget that putin in his early days had to brutalize the chechens to get them to behave
without a nuke, the hegemony would have claimed putin killed millions of chechens and they need to invade
and kill putin
exactly what they're planning to do in iran




i bet everyone in the iranian leadership regrets not getting a nuke

but wishes are in the past
now they have to face the consequences of bad choices
and resolve things the hard way

the only way out of this is how vietnam and afghanistan got out of it
make them bleed
you'll bleed as well
but you have to draw so much blood that they develop generational ptsd
there is no other way

iran is uniquely positioned to achieve this
because matyrdom is a central tenet of shia islam
they should release the hellhounds

they've tried the proportional bs in the past
only emboldened them
so it is time for a change of tact
