When I and many others notably, Mr usmanpogo said that the recognitions by some European countries weren't sufficient enough to grant statehood to the fictional Palestine state. One clown the lord of the rings was busy scribbling nonsense!!

Any recognition done outside the US without the full backing of all members of the UN security Council was just a mere nonsensical exercise in futility!!

Funny how the propaganda of a Palestinian state has quietly fizzled out of the thread!!

"A battle with Iran will be a lesson for Trump, Trump must learn that he will enter an educational battle, the result of which will be that he will no longer dare to make threats in the world."

There's a difference between predictions/analysis and declarations.
What some people are doing on this thread aren't predictions nor analysis. They're declaring. No, making decrees!

As in, how would someone come online and declare war between two or more nations continuously for months, with his full chest? And he claims to be sane? How?

Neither Israel, Iran nor US have declared war or even shot a bullet at anyone. In fact, the Middle East is now very quiet, loudly quiet for months now, compared to its normal state. Bombs are not dropping off in Gaza, Syria, Lebanon nor Yemen in large doses compared to previous times. Perhaps, the tension between the US and Iran is a blessing in disguise. Even the protests in Iran have cooled.

Tons of talks, deliberations and diplomacy are going on non stop, as I type this, concerning Iran, 247. Nobody wants war, no party. Trump is trying to avoid American body bags. Iran is desperately trying to get out of the sanctions cage. Trust me, sanctions are hell. They are almost as terrible as being at war, because the effects are terrifying. Gulf countries know they'll be the grass that suffers when the elephants fight, so they're doing everything humanly possible to avoid war. Even Israel don't want war. The 12 day exchange will be a walk in the park, compared to what will come. That's why they're desperately pushing America to do the work.

Still and still, someone would come on Nairaland and type with confidence when the US Iran war would kick start, including the outcome. Some are behaving like Generals in the Armies of the concerned countries and are already giving out orders. It's now a routine. They do this mostly close to weekends.

If the people behind some of the monikers on this thread were the world decision makers, we all would have been fighting the 7th World War by now. SMH....

One must not continue feeding such a regime, but must force a regime like the Ukrainian one to the negotiating table — as Trump has done.

That should have been Germany’s task as well. pic.twitter.com/GwwVQXsom4

But negotiations were ongoing the last time when Israel and U.S struck so if people are saying here that there would be war they must have drawn inference from antecedents. What are you trying to prove. U.S has deployed most of its military assets to the region even critical military assets from mainland U.S have been moving to the the M.E and you think this is just a comedy?

I did political analysis in my Uni days and what people are doing here is what we call Predictive Analysis , one of the yardstick for measuring polical events, so it is still part of political analysis. It doesn't matter if what you predicted didn't happen. If you know Professor Trita Parsi an Iranian American who has written a lot about contemporary politics, he said last year and he was certain that Israel would strike Iran before December but that didn't happen does that make him dumb or clownish? No, in fact seeing that Israel did not strike Iran before that December another inference can be drawn and used for analysis next time.

Chai...I so much love that series. May his soul rest in peace. Can we say the rogue state Israel has done this?
