Tic-Toc No. 7 On The War On Iran
Comments
We’re at a standoff/ceasefire, US quit the theater. Israel has the Algerian solution looming. It was a deft move on Trump’s part. Don’t lose your head, most everyone here goes ballistic with the first crack.

Some reports that the B-2’s all went to Fordow and the other two sites were hit with cruise missiles to finish off what Israel might have missed.

You’re projecting pretty hard. The Iranians cannot allow attacks without consequences. You may not understand. Sovereign states can’t let stuff like this go.
Also, it is unlikely that Trump has a deal with Iraqi militias. The Iraqi government has surrounded the US embassy as a protective measure.

All right wing populists from Hungary , Germany, UK and Trump are protectors of the US rules based order.
Only complete fools were taken in by them in the first place.
And Don’t give me any Orban shit either, the man is a cunt. US rules based order to his core.

Piss off, drop your mask as some sort of anti-imperialist, and embrace your piss president Trump as he seizes the Nobel Piss Prize.
I’ve made it abundantly clear that Europe and other proxies like Turkey and KSA are proxies, which means they are junior partners of imperialism. They are complicit. They are guilty. But, they are secondary—accessories to the act of murder, if you will. I’ve emphasized repeatedly that these other nations are merely a symptom of the sickness, and that the true heart of that sickness is America. Without excising that sickness from this world, there is no hope for curing the world. By expending their energies and attention on treating the symptom instead of the cause, MoA barflies are only providing a soothing balm for the Westerners living in comfort in the imperial core, shielding their eyes and ears from all the atrocities committed by America. The American and American wannabe MoA barflies work hard to deflect attention from America because the alternative would jeopardize their comfortable lives as labor aristocrats.
I had thought you were a progressive liberal that could come around to understanding the leftist/communist position. The ignorance about the role of the USD as a global reserve currency enforced at gunpoint was an oversight in your analysis of MMT, I thought. Now, I’ve come to see that it was willful blindness on your part. Your intent was to deflect criticism of America, to channel any potential revolutionary energy in America into maintaining the status quo via reformation (voting, protesting etc). Your latest comment made it clear that you’re just another regular American, and Americans are virtually all right-wingers (Democrats are liberals and are therefore by definition right-wing, not left).
Death to America.

Very much so, but then most resistance types hype “martyrdom” rhetoric for their own loser agendas. As a way of “removing” the excuse of Iranian nuclear facilities, it’s peak. Israel might respond with a false flag… but American AND Chinese forces in the region could expose that.
Things are looking really bad for the warmongers in Israel and resistance cheerleaders alike. Oh well! War as farce may be silly, but it’s much more pleasant than the alternative.

It has been recently repeatedly said that they were in based Diego Garcia and could be used to drop the massive 13.5 ton bunker busters and possibly nuclear weapons on Iran. Trump has been associated with this as well.
As to the actually whereabouts – who knows unless someone can trace their flightpaths and identify them as B2s.
In this day an age, whether information is true or false is something that is difficult to ascertain since we know we are told bull excrement most of the time, and AI is making that even worse. Divisive opinion because of this prevail, as the threads here demonstrate, but of course everybody still thinks their version of the truth is the absolute truth.
A lot of prophesies on here are pure nonsense, some even see themselves as quasi-clairvoyants or the eye of God. I do not seek to prophesise myself but comment on fundamental deeper change out of observation, and attempt to glean something from it in terms of where we may be headed. I may be therefore right or wrong.

Since the “nuke stuff ” was all a cover story for regime change and there was no regime change then its all a complete lie- with the Zionist media playing their part.
But the worst part is if that also means there’s no end to the genocide either. No end of “Israel”.

Well let’s see how Iran response, If there was a secret deal between the US & Iran, I’d expect Iran to bomb 2 or 3 of the bases that the US has already evacuated and then an announcement of talks with either China or Russia acting as the guarantor for Iran. If there was no deal I’d expect the Iranians to bomb the bases AND close the straits to all US & EU shipping (only Russian, Chinese & Indians ships allowed), we’ll see within the next 48 hours or so.

Very probable. Somewhat like Syrian tomahawk.

Wishful thinking and you are giving Trump too much credit.
First off, if this is a mere repeat of his show of force in Syria in his first term, wow! How freakin’ original.
2. What happened to Syria eventually?…a lesson for Iran.
3. That still leaves Gaza. This is not a walk away/everyone-wins scenario. Trump is retarded if he really thinks he is some kind of Houdini-dealmaker able to satisfy all parties when he has allies like Israel.
You are going off half-cocked and premature. There are pills for that.

Iran official says part of Fordow attacked in ‘enemy’ air strikes
The Iranian Tasnim news agency is citing an official in Qom as saying that part of the Fordow nuclear site has come under attack.
“Hours ago, after Qom’s air defenses were activated and hostile targets were identified, part of the Fordow nuclear site was attacked by enemy airstrikes,” Morteza Heydari, a spokesman for the Qom Provincial Crisis Management Headquarters, was quoted as saying.

🇮🇷 The bombing of Iran’s nuclear facilities was not far-fetched, and the Islamic Republic had been expecting this bombing for days and had devised the necessary measures for this event so that its nuclear industry would suffer the least damage including moving enriched materials and centrifuges to unknown safe zones for “future uses”
In fact, our war with America began 9 days ago and we are still fighting it, and nothing new has happened except that now there is no limitation.

Our host b’s predictions have been contravened twice now. The Israeli strike against Iran that was supported by the US was the first time. Trump’s bombing of Iran was the second time. This is a rather consistent pattern. The blind spot in b’s analysis comes from a religious devotion to Trump. It comes from believing that Trump is a flawed savior of Western civilization like the other MAGA cultists on MoA such as William Gruff, c1ue (who very confidently boasted about the absence of American military strikes in this very thread). I don’t expect b to change their position on Trump. There’s too much sunk cost now.
There is some small solace to be had here. Instead of a blog for geopolitics, MoA will be a comedy website, and there’s much fun and cheer to be had that way!

The US lost in Iraq and Afghanistan and it lost in Vietnam. Bombs do not win a war. There are 90 million Iranians in a huge country, much of it mountainous and the US could not defeat them. This is game-playing, dangerous, childish game-playing.

You ask a good question. I’m not buying into the Kabuki theory just yet. It could simply involve unintended consequences as much of US policy manifests. So, the US does a superficial hit on Iran nuke sites but that does nothing to help Israel really. And gives Iran the opportunity to escalate. Some have wondered if regime change was looking at the wrong nation.

So, because Iran would be a danger with nuclear weapons, the US and Israel, which have nuclear weapons, can use nuclear weapons against Iran to prevent it getting nuclear weapons? WTF. The lunatics are running things. I suppose it is a bigger version of: We had to destroy the village to save it.
The world is subjected to the toxic fallout of nuclear weapons in order to prevent a State which does not have nuclear weapons from getting nuclear weapons. The sooner the State of Hate, Israel is eradicated and Americans go home and leave the world alone, the better off everyone will be, including Americans.

The magnitude of hitting ANY nuclear power anything.
The global license the US precedent just set…
We can all seee now the NAZI Ukrainians frothing and setting plans for Zap or any number of plants deep inside of Russia .
All options globally, just like the live streamed genocide, are globally “accepted” now as “warfare” adapted, if desired, tactics.
My son works in a “peaceful nuclear power plant”… I cannot express the homocidal livid anger I would feel should his plant be targeted by some terror state or group.
Iranians must be livid, just contemplating the insidious disregard of radiation contamination & a host of issues with this new heightened mass scale genocide adventure.
Zero way Iran or the “global community” can possibly let this pass. No paint brush wide enough to correct this blatant intent of mass genocide.

I have been saying in every possible forum for at least 12 years that Putin is a wussy and probably the worst war chief of both Russia or the Soviet Union and that if Stalin or any other Soviet leader, Czar, could come back to life he’d have him shot in the backyard of the Kremlin right now as a traitor to the Motherland, for having given to the West the entirety of Ukraine for free because in 1st place he didn’t want to be bothered during his Sochi ego feast, but also for the fact that he wanted to look nice to the world, a team player, and all I got as response was to be called a crazie and a warmonger.
Putin gave for nothing the lands that had cost the Red Army and the Soviet people millions of casualties to win and that were a formidable shield for the Motherland. That’s obvious but his fan club still keeps calling him the greatest leader in the world, when NATO is barely a few hundreds of miles from the Kremlin and Western bombs keep falling around it.

Does zero mean zero? For instance, if VVP and Iran responded with underwhelming (or non-existent) force, might you realize you were too wound up?
Then again, Israel is very likely to at least attempt a false flag to provoke a much stronger American response. Hopefully people aren’t stupid enough to directly assist the hasbara, but that is asking a lot.

It’s about time people realised that being a Jew is completely different to being a Zionist, or worse: an extreme or radical Zionist.
You can be a Jew and a Zionist or an extreme or radical Zionist
You can be a secular Israeli and be a Zionist or an extreme or radical Zionist
You can be a secular Jew even if you were born with religious parents.
While some Jews and Israelis are behind Netanyahu and his thug-like genocidal madness, there are others that are fully opposed to his murdering of innocent Palestinians and would prefer to live in harmony, even living in Israel.
If you are the sort of person that wants to label all Jews as evil then you are no different to those who label all Palestinians or Iranians or Muslims as evil or lesser humans. Not that different to Goebbels or Hilter or Himler, or Netanyahu in terms of pure bias and simplistic understanding, and hatred.

Press TV commentators, various other Iranian sources, and Iranian allies (specifically Yemen) all say “It ain’t over” We will see within a few days. Trump has said that the US will go in again if Iran doesn’t stop… so seems like Trump tried the least damaging option his advisors could come up with to try and get an off-ramp, but without asking the Iranians if they would buy in. The Buzz says they haven’t, so we will see.
The Iranians claim all damage was superficial and the attacks were repelled.
