I always find the Iranian opposition the most stupid one of all.
Iran is recreating the Persian Empire. Only things are that it is called " Islamic Republic " and you can't sipp a whisky and watch girls legs in Tehran. All of it for relatively little money .
Those little esoteric stories are for motivating masses . They found a good niche, I have to admit.
Us and others will alow it as long as there's money flowing in and the chaos. Good recipe that, it makes sure that only amount of gain is variable but not the gain in itself.
Well played
Iran never ever in their history shot 1 bullet against Israel or the USA. They only killed muslims.
The only Arab country who actively attacked Israel since 1974 was Iraq in the Gulf War. Saddam launched Scud-rockets on Tel Aviv in 1991.
Its like the Russians using the "euroasian tag" its just the Russian way of saying Russian empire/soviet union without arousing the useful idiots along the way.
As for recreating the persian empire, its just creating further instability across Muslim majority lands. It won't achieve anything to challenge any great power. It will just be used as another anchor to weigh the middle east down and keep it backward.
Iran contributed to more deaths of Muslims in Syria then Isreal has committed in Palestine. Had the Muslim brotherhood succeded in Syria and not be overthrown in egypt, today you have an allied Islamic Turkey, Egypt and Syria on the same page. They couldnt crushed Palestine. But morsi was over thrown and assad was kept in power. So now Gaza is destroyed.
To me the iran/america conflict is just theatre. No more. I suspect every rocket fired towards an american base is first cleared with the americans before it can be launched. Hence why no americans ever die in iranian attacks.
Gaza has been reduced to rubble and here we are talking about shipping lanes lol. well done the self declared most anti zionist state on earth. well done. Its been a good show.
The persian regime also is critical in allowing the zionists to claim they are a victim under threat, justifying their violence. Before erdogan started talking and doing nothing, it was the Persians talking about how Isreal will be wiped off the map. Its just theatre, its fake.
The regime was put into power by a coalition of the us/uk and france. The ayatollah himself was living in paris and being paid by the french state. Their regime is another puppet regime like the saudi regime. Now the entire country can believe they are against Isreal, all that matters is that tiny circle at the top and who they work for.
The US itself increased the escalation by hitting the Houthis. Ballistic missiles are now being fired from Iranian territory. If the USA pours gasoline, it will not extinguish the fire. It will make it bigger. So burn, baby, burn.They wouldn't dare, I think. But if American soldiers are dead (even if just a few) we better expect a significant escalation.
