And it beats my imagination even more that there are people that think Iran will surrender to the US. At this very moment, I am watching the congressional review of the US Congress on the US military budget live. Pete Hegseth has been a show of shame; General Dan Caine has been very professional. It is increasingly clear that there is no off-ramp for the US here, and I am incredibly amazed at how much the US Congress acknowledges this, but someone sitting in the comfort of his parlor in Abakaliki thinks otherwise.

Relax dude. That is not how country just emerge as world power. Country dont emerge as world power by using propaganda tools. Oh! I forget, the propaganda tools like Facebook was invented by a Jew (Mark Zuckerberg), in a country (U.S.A). You need money, systems, technology, education and financial system, real weaponry (nuclear weapon is important), to emerge as world power. This thing is a simple truth, but I'm sure you people is not looking for simple truth. Razzness: |

I am not saying they are a world power as it is. They are not even the strongest country in the Middle East as it is. But if for some reason, this current Iranian regime manages to survive this war, even if it's through a negotiated settlement, then they may well be on track. First of all, their newfound ability to disrupt the flow of oil through the Strait of Hormuz effectively means they can control 20% of the world's oil flow. That is not small; the US is at 21%. Additionally, if they somehow survive, then there is no doubt that obtaining a nuclear weapon will be their next big objective. They have the money, technical know-how, and political will to develop one. I am not saying it will happen, but if it happens, a nuclear Iran with control of the flow of 20% of the world's energy is by all intent and purposes a world power. Julius1995: |

You don't seem to realize that a prolonged blockade would not only hurt the global economy but also all the Gulf allies of the US. Iran was never blockading the Strait of Hormuz to make money. At the start of the war, they stated clearly that their objective was to push oil prices to $200 per barrel, and with Trump's blockade, it had even risen faster. Today it's at $126. So for the Iranians, Trump is actually doing their job for them: pushing oil prices to unbearable figures.Inosky: |

Nobody said that, and anyone who did clearly does not know what it means to be called a world power. What is objectively true is that if this regime somehow manages to survive this onslaught from both the US and Israel, then they may well be on their way. With their newfound ability to control the flow of 20% of global energy, obtaining a nuclear weapon could effectively put them as a fourth center of world power, which will be their big objective if they somehow survive the war.

Razzness:The strait of Hormuz will soon become useless, there will be alternatives to the strait and Iran will be on its own. Israel and all the Arab countries Iran attacked won't allow it obtain nuclear power. It's like Iran downfall is inevitable. |

What you are saying is more like hope, not based on any factual reasoning. The Strait of Hormuz will soon become useless? As in, will they be flying crude oil on airplanes, or will they build bridges over the sea? "Israel and all the Arab countries Iran attacked won't allow it obtain nuclear power" What a joke. And what will they do to stop it? Bomb Iran? Netanyahu said he had wanted this war for 40 years, but never dared to do it on his own. Even in his wildest dreams, Netanyahu never dared to attack Iran without the help of the US. And this war tells us why. Even with the US combined, Iran launched thousands of missiles and drones to not just Israel but also Qatar, UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, Israel, and Saudi Arabia at once. Now imagine all that firepower facing Israel alone without the help of the US. INJESUSNAME: |

First is that you deviate from the key point I raised. Secondly, they did not survive this war due to their own ability, the greatest deterrence in this war to Trump, U.S., and Israel is not Iran's capability, it is outrage among their respective citizens and allies. Iran had already started using human shield. Thats in some ways, conceding defeat. On the Strait, you are right, but there are some key issues you deliberately ignored: one, the strategy is also counterproductive (i.e. U.S blocking the Iran port), two, the blockade hurt countries that are a little friendly to Iran (like China), than it hurt any country in the West. And you dont become a world power by blocking international waterway, do it too long, and you will draw the outrage of even the people supporting you. On money, Iran is not a wealthy country, and not after this war where they took a loss/damage of hundreds of billions. The biggest winner in the war is actually Israel. Because it will take some tims before Iran can stabilise. Razzness: |

Currently holds the largest crude oil inventory in the world, estimated at nearly 1.4 billion barrels stored. So the idea that China is hurt by the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is wishful thinking. And for China, anything that will distract the US and consume its resources is a welcome development. You think Iran is not wealthy? They have the 3rd largest proven oil reserve in the world. Moreover, if they manage to survive this war through a negotiated settlement, they will almost certainly get some form of sanction relief. If this war ends without a regime change, Israel is undoubtedly the biggest loser. They will be leaving behind a vengeful, more motivated regime with the political will, technical know-how, and money to rebuild. All that Iran has lost, it will not take them more than 15 to 20 years to rebuild and restock it. And it is almost certain they will be more motivated to pursue a nuclear weapon than they were before. A nuclear Iran is a thought Israel cannot simply live with. Julius1995: |
