Oct 7th at least for people I know in America view this as the effective death of the Palestinian goal for statehood. No one cares about Palestinians other than Al Jazeera and the Sultan Queer Starmer and his alliance of the French and Spanish Mullahs. Its genuinely interesting how much my local family gives jack shit about Palestinians since Oct 7th happened. Before that day the viewpoint for me is that the Israeli people needed to give the Palestinians some legitimacy but now? Deport them to madagascar.

As a totally uninvolved American Christian, the Israel/Palestine question sounded to me for decades like two children fighting. The media is certainly not reporting the facts honestly and in context. After October 7th it became clear that peace would never be possible because of the Palestinians and Israel wasn't losing that existential war. It also reminds me of 9/11. An attack like that permanently changes the status quo.

Iran keeps TACO'ing.

No Indian Internet cable cutting
No whirlpool generators
No pre-emptive strikes against the enemies despite all the tweets going on about how we used the ceasefire to plan a sneak attack and to rearm.
TACO TACO TACO. That's Iran can do now. Shameful display. -1000000 Izzat.

Let's not forget that the blockade is only one part of the equation. The US Treasury can fuck a country up if they really want to, and they're currently in the process of freezing every single dark money account the regime has, so they can't spend the cash they've already stored.

That's a massive understatement if you think what Trump threatened to do is just "a nudge", its a completely, systematic disassembling of a moderately large country's infrastructure.

You have far more faith in these crazy bastards' ability to restrain their bloodlust than I do.
For a country as resource rich as Iran, they shouldn't have a problem with their economy. But they're so obsessed with spending billions propping up regional terrorist networks and embezzlement-happy useless construction projects that destroy their agricultural infrastructure that their currency is literally worthless. Those aren't the actions of a pragmatic government.

The level of faith you place in a martyr deifying Islam fundamentalist death cult that refers to Israel as the Little Satan and the USA as the Great Satan, whose military strategy was to attack random surrounding third party Muslim countries, who uses their own people as human shields, whose motto has been "death to Israel, death to the United States" repeated by schoolchildren for decades, is a bit troubling.

I don't know if you've noticed from these negotiations and the war, but these people are not rational actors. They place zero value on the lives of not only their enemies but their own people, themselves, and third parties. You are imposing and projecting your own culture and morality upon them to rule out opening Pandora's Box. Honor and image is a thousand fold more important than any other factor to them.

The guys in charge of Iran own a lot of assets and businesses inside the country in on itself that has made them extremely rich, they are not giving that all up to see everything they own turn into nuclear wasteland cause fuck Israel or some shit like that, it's purely nuclear deterrence to make sure they don't get the consequences for fucking about all over with the Middle East with their proxies, same reason every nuclear armed state won't do it.

Why do you think they spend the past few decades trying to meticulously build a proxy network?, those proxies acted as their shields in furthering their own interests while minimizing direct damage done to them as much as possible, otherwise, they would have declared jihad against Allah's enemies of the United States, Saudi Arabia, and Israel a long time ago.

They are rational, they really just don't like the Americans or any of its Middle Eastern allies.

have you noticed that many countries DO attack nuclear states directly?

Israel regularly falls under direct attack

Pakistan and India fight constantly.

Ukraine is so far up in Russia's shit these days that Putin keeps more air defenses around his personal home than some entire russian cities have.

The difference between all of those attacks is, none of that those even remotely even threatens the existing state apparatus in on itself (Israel's most pressing issue are non-state terrorists, India and Pakistan have been getting into more or less mostly inconsequential slapfights the moment they received independence, and the occasional Ukrainian strikes into Russian territory aren't state threatening), unlike the recent strikes (and/or possible future strikes) explicitly aimed to force Iran to cease all of its current geopolitical ambitions, we would never even think about doing this to Russia or China for very obvious reasons.

You other 2 are either ignorant of history or a jew/chink actors trying to fuck up this board. The A.Q. Khan network went down less than 30 years ago. And he's the only one who's actually been caught doing it. To think their hasn't been multiple black market copycats when it comes to nuclear proliferation would be fucking retarded. But I know you 2 are retarded because all your posts consistently do is underestimate Iran which is legit one of the basics of warfare. All I've watched the US do because of retards like you for the last 50 years is underestimate opponents. The Vietcong, Iraqi's, Afghan's and now the Persians. The Persians next to the Germans are the best engineers on the planet. To think you have any idea what kind of weaponry our enemies have because you watch Gundam Wing sounds pathetic. I honestly hope neither of you gather any more power than a Long John Silver's assistant manager or we're all in trouble.

What the hell is this schizobabble?, very little of what you just spat out is not based in reality whatsoever.

Depending on where you read Iran has between 8 and 16 days of slack left in their oil storage capacity. Once they run out of storage they are going to have to start capping wells and shutting down pipelines. Getting them restarted takes awhile and is costly.. if they even have the manpower and supplies to restart them. Them not being able to ship oil out is going to start causing a cascade of problems upstream.

How dare the Pakistanis suggest Iran cannot announce the end of negotiations, the Iranians must level Islamabad for this insult to their izzat. As a matter of fact, the IRGC should invade Pakistan, take their nukes and fire them at India for not keeping their retarded Muslim cousins in line.

What do they need USD for? Why do you think they're taking their toll payments in Yuan? Nobody will need USD when this is over. Sanction away! As the world laughs.
 
This thread is sounding like the vatnik thread after Russians retreated from Kiev and Kherson, the Ukraine thread after Pokrovsk, or USPG2 after Trump retreated in his tariffs. "Guys, Trump making a fool of himself and walking back on his threats for the fifth time is 6D chess!!!"

I'd suggest Risperidone, then my lurker friend.


Anyway on a completely unrelated note, where are those totally real uber-ultra-last-chance-for-the-infadels wunderwaffen superweapons Iran keeps threatening to use unless Trump gives them reparations and ends the blockaide now now now now now?

Breaking a statue of Jesus in Lebanon: The soldier and the photographer were dismissed and sent to 30 days of detention, the IDF delivered a new statue

The IDF published the conclusions of the investigation following the damage to a Christian religious symbol in southern Lebanon: The soldier who smashed the statue and the soldier who documented the act were dismissed from combat and will serve a prison sentence. Six additional soldiers who stood by were summoned for questioning.

Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir accepted the findings and determined that this was a "moral failure" and a complete violation of army orders. In addition, the IDF delivered a new statue of Jesus to a village in southern Lebanon.

You have a strange idea of how easy it is to induce starvation in a country. To do so, you have to physically control the borders so food can't be imported. You have to destroy food stores. You have to destroy cropland, the farming labor pool one way or another, or both. You have to destroy fuel supply and production, and railroads, and most roads. Germany had starvation at the end of both world wars because of the British blockade, and the destruction of the farming labor pool by the military sucking up too many farmers. Even then it took years. The United States does not have the ability to control Iran's land borders without an invasion. Not happening. The United States has no interest in destroying Iranian cropland. It has no ability or inclination to decimate Iran's farming labor pool. With its current forces in theater, the United States does not have the ability to destroy Iran's rail and road network to a sufficient degree to induce starvation by lack of ability to distribute food. Doesn't have the inclination either. Water supply in any decently modern country is dependent on electricity, and you can be sure the United States would be careful not to limit the water supply to such a degree that people litrully start dying of dehydration

The US would need significantly more planes, and a dedicated campaign of at least a year, almost to the exclusion of hitting other targets, to kill people through starvation and dehydration. Killing people through dehydration is a lot harder than starvation too, to the point where it's unheard of outside of pre-modern sieges. Also such a campaign would awkshully be a war crime. Don't embarrass yourself again geez

You're absolutely right. Destroying all of Iran's power generation and bridges won't cause any problems with food for the civilians. Thank you for coming up with such a wordy reply to explain to me how destroying their ability to generate power to operate stoves, refrigerators and other food related items isn't a factor in population centers incapable of growing their own food and rely on trucking and distribution warehouses to fill grocery stores.

Especially since Iran claims they don't acknowledge the ceasefire extension. If that's so, they should be shooting missiles at our warships right about now, shouldn't they?
