OMG, what on earth did I just read? Are you posting straight from Tehran? You know, the place that just HUNG three protesters after torturing them into confessions? After murdering thousands of other innocent protesters? SURE... Iran is guided by its deeply "moral and religious principles." I think you meant fanaticism. I truly hope your post was satire. |

The idea that you think this war harms Russia in any way |

| Itâs looking like US troops will be on the ground by this weekend. A10, Apaches, etc are precursor for invasion. Marines and 82nd most likely. |

Then stop calling everyone who disagrees with your nutty posts and accusations, "Zionists." It's like calling anyone who disagrees with some of the Democratic platform, "MAGA." It's a very stupid thing to do. |

People have already been talking about the MEU is being deployed to the ME and the 82nd Airborne at Fort Bragg has canceled training exercises. I'm not sure MSM is reporting how significant these things are and also how invading Iran from the sea is virtually impossible. Yes the special forces could come in and secure some areas but they won't be able to hold them against drones and ballistic missiles. All that red on the map below are really tall mountains with some snow capped in white. The natural way in is through Afghanistan. But that would mean we'd have to invade Afghanistan again.

They're going to invade "Elam" - the green area - because the nut job Evangelicals and Religious Zionists are in charge. |

Please stop. If you don't have sourced facts to share, don't bother posting your nuttiness. |

You are quoting the Foreign Minister of IRAN as some sort of legitimate source?? JFC. You really are far gone. |

Can you just stop with your nonsense. Iran was hit 14 times with chemical weapons during the Iraq war. They did not respond in kind because the religious leaders say chemical weapons are amoral. The same with developing nuclear weapons. At this point Israel has killed more Iranians civilians vs the regime. If you have to say one side is measured and moral in this fight it is Iran. If you say a country who kills civilians is evil and a terrorists country, why have you not denounced Israel? 100,000 killed in Gaza and that does not even come close to all the murders commit over time. Now adding all the people held in prison in Israel. Technically those people are Israel citizens displaced by the apartheid regime. Israel has a much smaller population vs Iran. A state at war dies not commit terrorism. A state commits war crimes and crimes against humanity. Terrorism is the targeted use of violence by non-state actors to create fear for ideological or political goals. A state at war involves organized military forces from recognized nations engaging in combat. There is very little support for this war and the US has lost. This means the US will pull out of the regime. This is the experts consensus. Everything going forward at this point is just salting the ground. Think of how this will impact the regime. |

Robert Pape's escalation trap is playing out in real time.
https://escalationtrap.substack.com/p/from-disruption-to-damage-in-the "Right now, most people think they are watching how future escalation will unfold. They are not. They are watching the last phase of one kind of warâjust before it becomes another. The next phase will not just be more intense. It will be fundamentally different. What is changing is not the level of violence. It is the nature of harm. We are now approaching that threshold." "Most observers still believe escalation is a matter of degree. More strikes. More retaliation. More pressure. This assumes the war is simply intensifying along a familiar path. It is not. Escalation is not linear. It is structural â it crosses thresholds. What appears as gradual escalation is often a transition between fundamentally different phases of conflict. Leaders believe they are calibrating force. In reality, they are moving the war across thresholds that change what strategies are available â and the level of costs they will pay. "Each move by the stronger side to âwinâ quickly created new incentives for the weaker side to widen and deepen the conflict." "The United States and its partners have incentives to keep the conflict at the level of disruption. Temporary disruption preserves the option of restoring order without incurring the costs of rebuilding destroyed systems. Iran faces a different calculus. For Tehran, the stakes are existential. Survival, not stability, is the objective. When survival is at stake, the rational strategy is not calibrated restraint so as to retain capacity to benefit later. It is to impose costs on the opponent that are deep, prolonged, and difficult to reverse. History shows this logic clearly." |

DP Why do you dismiss and shout down anything that is not Israeli propaganda? The Iranians have been more truthful vs Israel, the US and MSM. |
