For Trump to have been postponing his so called strikes on Iran ,it means something is not harding up. He doesn't want casualties on US troops. He believes in getting things done quickly without much blood shed on US side. Something like Nickolas Maduro case in Venezuela. |

Neither Israel nor US is interested in any deal, what they want is regime change in Iran but if the loop holes they are looking for is not opened, then they will have no choice than to accept deal even on Iran terms. |

Speculating speculator. I would have believed you if the US was not deploying more ships and fighters there. I believe they have a build up target they want to meet before striking. Concerning Russia and China, weren't they in Venuzuela before Maduro was captured. Why didn't the Russian and Chinese air defenses help? The Mullas are going down. It will only be a long battle. |

godliman:You're also speculating . Let's wait for 10 ten days promise by Trump. He may also be waiting for Congress approval As for Venezuela. Maduro armed forces betrayed him. |

For a country that has perfected his hypersonic and ballistic tech, Trump know their would be losses which will dent his party’s reputation. He campaigned on no foreign wars and why less than 30% support the war. Israel’s popularity in the US is at an all time low. Majority of Americans don’t want to see their soldiers die for a foreign country again. Trump is hooked! Israeli lobby on his throat, Americans rebuking his war mongering. Also, Middle East stability cos Iran will hit Qatar and Saudi and might degenerate to a bigger war. Oil prices go up, economic instability around the world on the line. Iran won’t go down without a good fight. There are confirmed reports of how they mass producing hypersonics and ballistic missiles. |

godliman:The battle won't even be long...it's going to be surgical...isreal demystified them during the 12 days war...the ayatollah know whats coming and has already written his will and ask other of his top men to do same with the hope that their regime would still hold should they be smoked....but the good thing is isreal would wiped both them and their successor off clean with nobody to fill any vacuum till the Shah take over his throne... |

godliman:Iran doesn't want war, More ships is just an intimidation strategy, America doesn't want war either. The only party interested in war is Isreal, which they knew they don't have the capability to face Iran on their own. |

They have been stealing Venezuela crude oil vessels and have secured the Venezuela oil industry to give them enough energy to sustain a war in the Middle East. Orange Mussolini told us he was going after a drug dealer in Venezuela |

My hypothesis The US is giving Iran the Nigerian civil war treatment. Lock them in, no food, no water, no flights in or out, no trade. How long can the IRGC hold out? no lifesaving medications in or out, no internet. Even if the US sits still for another month Iran will go mad, it’s a torture technique. Hysteria will set in soon. A psychological warfare has began, the kinetic part is only an accessory. There would be a weak link soon, a breaking point for some of the soldiers, a mistake. The recent hike in global tariffs will keep everyone else busy with saving their own economies than saving Iran. |

EDGEof2MORO:The Venezuelan tankers were returned. You can make your findings locally, US oil companies in Nigeria pay the highest, they have never been involved in illicit deals unlike UK and France. Calumny is the cheapest form of attack in the face of facts. You may also wish to use a GPT and find out how many US oil companies are operational in Libya, Afghanistan or Iraq. The Chinese steal more from Nigeria than any other country but somehow hatred has blinded some of us to the facts. |
| Re: Iran retaliates, hit Israel, US base in Bahrain by EDGEof2MORO: 5:19pm On Feb 23 |
Baxilexi:Returned to US oil refineries or released to their intended destination? |
| Re: Iran retaliates, hit Israel, US base in Bahrain by EDGEof2MORO: 5:20pm On Feb 23 |
Baxilexi:MAybe you should find out how long US and its allies have sanctioned Iran, hoping for the country to collapse so they can come and "save" it. They are wondering why it has not happened and are hoping a war/invasion will help them achieve their goal |
| Re: Iran retaliates, hit Israel, US base in Bahrain by Baxilexi(m): 8:02pm On Feb 23 |
EDGEof2MORO:Well, it ends here. Let’s do some math, Iran cannot export shahid drones and weapons to Russia because of the blockade, Ukraine Russia war pipes down, and mark my words, sanctions plus blockade will yield answers. You must appreciate certain facts; Iranians feel oppressed by their leadership; Imposition of one’s ideologies or theocracies on a people is evil, that’s why the world will eventually come to democracy (even in the US democracy is still in its infancy); A leadership cannot spend all its resources sponsoring revolutions of hate in the Middle East, why hasn’t Qatar, the UAE or Saudi launched or sponsored rebel groups against Israel; Turning inward, as a Nigerian I can relate with the average Iranians how helpless they may feel when the government is a syndicate of despotic individuals, backed by state army. 40,000 people killed because of one man’s ideology of what should be, that’s madness; Anthony Joshua has been served the Nigerian à la carte and he’s gone quiet, no ambulance, no speed limit, no lane discipline, no road signs, no first responders nothing… people who steal from the dead that’s what has been etched into his memory. Now he understands why a lot of people are angry with the thieving government. I will never support an oppressive government especially one that justifies its actions as divinely orchestrated. None is good but God! |

Baxilexi:US use oil to finance and run her military. Much of US oil reserves are artificial, stolen from other countries The United States Department of Defense is one of the largest single consumers of energy in the world, responsible for 93% of all US government fuel consumption in 2007 (Air Force: 52%; Navy: 33%; Army: 7%. Other DoD: 1%). |
| Re: Iran retaliates, hit Israel, US base in Bahrain by tanigororo: 7:21am On Feb 24 |
Baxilexi:So you believed in all this western media lies about Iran? Isn't it obvious that America/Isreal getting desperate about Iran. |
| Re: Iran retaliates, hit Israel, US base in Bahrain by EDGEof2MORO: 5:21pm On Feb 24 |
Baxilexi:You need a map |
| Re: Iran retaliates, hit Israel, US base in Bahrain by EDGEof2MORO: 5:26pm On Feb 24 |
Baxilexi:You said US returned the tankers and that tells me you agree more than one tanker was stolen. This your link says only one tanker was returned. It also said the US plans to control Venezuela oil industry indefinitely...which was what I said earlier. Make you no dey make pant dey wear you oh...hmmm |
| Re: Iran retaliates, hit Israel, US base in Bahrain by EDGEof2MORO: 5:27pm On Feb 24 |
Biodun556:Help me tell my people o. To them USA can do no wrong even if US bomb their village tomorrow |
| Re: Iran retaliates, hit Israel, US base in Bahrain by Baxilexi(m): 2:49pm On Feb 26 |
Biodun556:You do know oil needs to be drilled, pumped, refined then used. Do your research, how many US oil companies are illegally operating in Libya, Iraq, or other oil producing countries? I’m not disputing the fact that they like to control global energy supply but to steal it? If not for principle, they could by oil from Russia for a quarter the international rate. |

tanigororo:No, I know a lot of Iranians. They are one of the most fun loving people on earth. They are as smart as the Jews if not smarter. What is wrong in them rejecting their theocratic government? They want to be free… that’s all. It’s a video but I can’t post it… I’ll take down this photo after a day. |

Targeted does not translate to actual "hit". |
