⚡The U.S. is demanding Iran dismantle key nuclear sites, give up all enriched uranium, and accept a permanent deal with zero enrichment.

Iran wants to keep some enrichment and seeks major sanctions relief.
Re: Russia-Ukraine War: World News, Weapons & Battlefield Discussions - Live by WriteerNg: 2:40pm On Feb 26
⚡U.S. demands presented to Iran in Geneva:

Destroy all three nuclear sites: Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan

Deliver all enriched uranium to the United States

No sunset clauses

Zero enrichment, but Iran can keep the Tehran research reactor

Minimal sanctions relief up front; more if Iran is compliant.

⚡India’s Modi in Israel:

In the field of defence, we have had decades-old reliable cooperation.

Together we will move forward in the direction of Joint Development, Joint Production and Transfer of Technology.

Along with this, we will also increase cooperation in fields like Civil Nuclear Energy and Space.

What a cliche that balisco made a simple intelligent analysis and all the clown pack has come for him!!

Funny the same people asking if he is a military general are the ones sinking air carriers in two seconds with their magical missiles😂😂


They are expecting to read about how one magical missile would sink a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier... All these one can't even think independently. They are all used to eating propaganda from the table of the LordAdamu..

Iran has a well educated population and a maniacal leadership.Their war preparation involved hundreds of thousands of missiles surrounding Israel Hanas abd Hezbollah and a few hundred ballistic missiles within their territory.
No ground army worth talking about. Their best jet is an F-4. Anti-aircraft missile defense,4 of them were destroyed by IDF.
America has Wild Weasel type F-16Cs with AGM-HARM missiles that home in to any radar tracking it. Iranians would be best advice to turn off their radars lest they are destroyed in real time.

That's how you deal with bullies.
From a point of strength.
Iran has no need for nuclear power they have enough oil .
The danger with Iran having nukes is that Saudi and it's allies will scramble to have theirs too

personally, i think the us has to give up something
for unilaterally exiting the original jcpoa

and i think the 20% enrichment level is exactly that

there has to be a price
so another potus does not repeat the pdf actions and expect flowers

there can be flexibility in other areas, like the sunset clause and HEU stock

but there has to be something that makes it clear that unilaterally voiding international agreements come at a cost
and if they don't accept that, then let their losses in the imminent war be their cost

The United States very much feels, understands, and realizes that for the defense of the United States, it is crucial to have a safe and secure Europe, a safe and secure Arctic, and a safe and secure Atlantic.

These fuuuuls always more concerned about security of the United States.

Always putting the security of the US first before their own.

They don't mind being erased in a nuclear war just for the US for feel "secure".

⚡NATO's Rutte on air defense:

We need to ramp up by 400% — five times what we have currently — in terms of air defense.

That will of course take some time, but we will get there.

It has only two options: join the herd and arm itself or DIE.

The defense industry has struggled for years to produce critical air defense interceptors that protect against incoming missiles, partly because of the complexity and speed of production. Interviews with six current and former U.S. officials and members of Congress underscored widespread worries that sustained Iranian responses could deplete those waning U.S. air defenses and leave tens of thousands of American troops in the region unprotected against Tehran’s missile salvos.

“Do we have enough interceptors to sustain a retaliation?” said the person familiar with the talks. “We don’t have a discretely focused objective. Is it regime change or is it [just] ballistic missiles?”


This is the problem, they don’t have a clear objective and they want a limited strike. Iran is not playing that game and will keep firing ballistic missiles until the USA beg for ceasefire like the chosen ones.

The Vietnam war is different because the USA industrial might then is not available now. The USA lost thousands of aircraft in Vietnam, they can’t afford that loss in Iran. They won’t risk flying bombers in and long range missiles are expensive and limited.

This will be the first time the USA will fight against an enemy in the Middle East with a destructive hypersonic missile. Taco we Dey wait.

we finally have an update on the cuban deaths




the cubans are saying
that the occupants of the boat are cuban nationals resident in the us
{no comment on if they are us dual citizens or green card holders)

that they were armed with intent to commit bodily harm
their objective was to infiltrate for terrorist purposes




the better route would have been to use submersibles
but i can actually believe that the 🤡🤡 in washington did try to smuggle in nefarious actors
and they fired first because they'd have been caught red handed with arms and explosives

fortunately for cuba, they're an island
surface transport in civilian craft is a high risk insertion route

⚡Boris Johnson:

The United States supplies 70% of NATO’s budget, 95% of NATO’s heavy lift capacity.

And depending on whether you believe that the French force de frappe actually works or not, the United States of America supplies 100% of Europe’s nuclear deterrent.

There’s Britain, yeah, but as you know, we are technologically dependent upon the United States.

⚡Polish Foreign Minister Sikorski:

I suspect Trump thought that if there were no further supplemental package, Ukraine would find itself in difficulty much faster, and the war might therefore be brought to an end because Ukraine would be forced into concessions.

I think they will eventually find that, with European support, Ukraine is not falling, and that the war cannot be ended without Ukrainian agreement and without European agreement as well, because, to use a Trumpian term, US cards are not as strong as they were.

⚡Steve Witkoff on Ukraine:

We see ourselves as a mediator. We do not see ourselves as a protagonist in this conflict.

So never once have we ever come to the Ukrainians, to their leadership, and sought to impose some sort of view that we expected Ukraine to adhere to.

We've listened carefully to the leadership of Ukraine — to what they can do, to what they can't do, to where political space exists for a solution to this, how we might think about territory or not...
