Iran

[Dire Wolf]

Israel is the world's leading rogue state and terrorist nation and ultimately with the USA the root cause of a huge amount of the worst things happening in the world.

But the world has sat on its hands for years and done nothing. It's time for that to end. Israeli nuclear ban, UN troops enforcing a border between Israel and Gaza, and a worldwide embargo on arms trade with Israel. I'd actually say any trade with Israel. Ban them from absolutely every international event, isolate them until there is nothing left for Zionists to support. Remove and prosecute every member of the current regime for war crimes and ban the Zionist parties from standing in elections. Every fucking thing you can to end their brutality.

Of course, none of this will happen as everyone would be called anti-semitic.

I think the depth and length of this economic shock will be considerably bigger than Trump had factored in. Possibly the only way it ends tbh, I'm not convinced that Iran will make the kind of concessions he wants in order to stop the campaign

Why should they?

No chance Iran makes any concessions, they believe they've got Trump on the run. Also the West is losing the support from average Iranians who would like their regime changed

The only concession likely is they’ll stop bombing if Iran and Israel stop. There’s going to be no regime change, just a world economic downturn until it stops. Until Trump accepts this and tells Israel to stop nothing will change. There’s no possibility of opening up the Straits of Hormuz without this happening as there’s no way you can stop all attacks from the Iranian coast and the sooner someone can get that into his head the world will continue to go to hell in a handcart.

This sums things up quite succinctly.

I was looking back at Bush’s rhetoric from post-9/11; it is incredible to me how relatively classy that administration was in comparison.

Imagine Don holding a press conference from the Islamic Center of Washington DC and saying this:

These acts of violence against innocents violate the fundamental tenets of the Islamic faith. And it's important for my fellow Americans to understand that.

The English translation is not as eloquent as the original Arabic, but let me quote from the Koran, itself: In the long run, evil in the extreme will be the end of those who do evil. For that they rejected the signs of Allah and held them up to ridicule.

The face of terror is not the true faith of Islam. That's not what Islam is all about. Islam is peace. These terrorists don't represent peace. They represent evil and war.

When we think of Islam we think of a faith that brings comfort to a billion people around the world. Billions of people find comfort and solace and peace. And that's made brothers and sisters out of every race -- out of every race.

2026 conservatives could never.

trump said he knew nothing about the israeli attack on the gas infrastructure.
hegseth repeated that a matter of an hour ago.
israel now stating the US helped co-ordinate this attack on irans gas infrastructure.

Difficult to know which of them is lying as it comes so naturally to both.

I struggle to see what Israel has to gain by contradicting Trump and Hegseth, though.

Doesn't want to lose moral support of the end-times KKKristian community in the US? Netanjahu probably wants Iran do descend into civil war, weakening itself so much that it couldnt pose a threat for decades. I don't see what Trump and Hegseth have to gain by saying they didn't have a clue that Israel would attack the gas fields, it makes them look even more incompetent than they are.

It's quite clear though, Israel is doing whatever it wants and will continue to do so regardless of what their bitch Trump says.

CNN reporting a US F35 was hit by the Iranians, not a bad job considering they’ve no air force, navy, rockets, missiles, drones or anti aircraft weapons left because the US has 100% destroyed them
