An Israel-funded fake think tank website published 124 articles in nine days in an effort to influence how AI chatbots present issues related to Palestine, as part of a wider campaign backed by tens of millions of dollars

zionists are relentless in their scheming. You've got to imagine the majority of their scams go unnoticed aswell.

WSJ: China helped Iran develop the Shahed — and Russia develop jet-powered drones

When Iran was developing the Shahed, it needed an engine capable of running at high speed and temperature for hours.

The foundation was the German Limbach L 550 E engine. Iran later created its own copy using cheap components from China.

After the war began, Iran transferred Shaheds and production equipment to Russia. According to the WSJ, Chinese businessmen also helped the Iranian military find suppliers in China.

Chinese components are now increasingly used in Russian Shaheds — including antennas, modems and SIM cards for navigation and route correction.

And according to the WSJ, the engines for Russia’s jet-powered Shaheds are manufactured by the Chinese company Telefly Telecommunications Equipment.

After Ukraine reported finding its products in Russian drones, the company removed the turbojet engines from the English-language version of its website.

However, they remain available on the Chinese-language version of the site and from local sellers.China helped Iran develop the Shahed — and Russia develop jet-powered drones.

The Financial Times reports that Russia has been secretly helping Iran develop supersonic cruise missile technology since 2023, in what could become one of Moscow’s most significant military technology transfers to Tehran.

The program, known as C430L, involves Russia’s state arms exporter Rosoboronexport and NPO Mashinostroyenia, with Russian missile engineers traveling repeatedly to Iran and analyzing Iranian ramjet flight-test data. The technology could eventually enable Iran to field faster, low altitude anti ship and land attack cruise missiles that would be significantly harder for U.S. and allied defenses to intercept.

Iran has already built and flight tested the ramjet propulsion system, but the FT found no evidence that a Russian assisted supersonic cruise missile has been deployed. The leaked correspondence indicates the program remained active into June 2026, including discussions about a next phase, although it is unclear whether that phase has begun.

The development is particularly significant for U.S. naval forces in the Middle East: Iran has demonstrated an ability to threaten American bases with drones and ballistic missiles, but has so far been less successful against U.S. naval assets. A mature ramjet powered anti ship missile could give Tehran a substantially more capable weapon for targeting ships in the Gulf and surrounding waters.

Footage of aftermath of US attacks shared on social media shows damage to home in southern Iran where five people were reportedly killed and 68 wounded during a wedding celebration. Iran retaliated shortly afterwards https://ebx.sh/gLFOtM

Had Iran just kept focusing on isreal, i think they could have come out of this. Now their trapped in a situation where the americans will just incrementally whittle them down. Isrealis who instigated this war are sitting pretty. I also think they know something we don't, because they don't even mention iran anymore its just Turkiye.

History shows wars are often decided by logistics. Iran has attacked that vulnerability: the US Navy lost access to its regional logistics hubs and now sends supply ships 2,200 miles to Diego Garcia, while warships resupply at sea every 5-6 days. As the NYT notes, “this is not sustainable.” The strain, if anything, is mounting.

What exactly do you mean by that?

I think the isrealis believe that now Iran is in a fight with the USA, that the USA will continue this boiling frog approach until Iran is completely ruined. They've already been neutralised as a direct threat to isreal. Its for good reason the iranians don't target isreal and i think from the isreali perspective they think iran is pretty much finished. Hence why they barely say much about iran anymore but always have something to say about Turkiye.

And by finished i mean, they have been put into a process which only ends with a completely exhausted and ruined iran. It could take 1 year it could take 20, but that process has started and won't end until the american/zionist ambition has been achieved.

The jews will hope in the future to play the same game where they start the war with the Turks but get the yanks to do all the fighting.

Iran should have focussed everything on isreal and not stopped.
