Iran’s Khatam al-Anbiya: 
“Any American interference in the Strait of Hormuz will be met with a decisive and swift response from the armed forces 
 
‘All oil tankers and commercial vessels are required to use the route designated by Iran for any safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz. 
 
Any failure to comply, deviation from the designated route, or disregard for the navigation protocols of the Islamic Republic of Iran in the Strait of Hormuz will be met with an immediate and forceful response from the armed forces, endangering the security of the violating vessels.’ 
 
‘The continued presence of American fighter jets, whether manned or unmanned, over the Strait of Hormuz causes insecurity in this waterway and threatens regional security.’ 
 
‘Iran will not hesitate to take any action necessary to crush any aggression or violation by the US military and its supporters in defense of its sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz.’

Monsters Playing Victims: Danny Danon’s Twisted War on the Truth
 
….Danon, however, utilizes a peculiar approach to defending Israel within international institutions: he relies on bullying, intimidation, and an overt attempt to silence anyone who dares to challenge the official Israeli narrative—particularly women leaders. Yet, what makes his behavior most outrageous is his deployment of these abrasive tactics to suppress an issue that demands the utmost sensitivity: the systemic use of sexual violence and human rights abuses against Palestinians. 
 
The confrontation took place during a UN General Assembly session convened to mark the International Day for the Elimination of Sexual Violence in Conflict. Senior UN officials were presenting harrowing findings documenting sexual violence against Palestinian detainees…..
 
….The immediate target of Danon’s wrath was Pramila Patten, the UN Secretary-General’s Special Representative on Sexual Violence in Conflict. Instead of reflecting on the grim findings, Danon demanded Patten’s resignation. He accused her and the broader international community of harboring an “obsession” with targeting Israel. 
 
When Vanessa Frazier, the Secretary-General’s Special Representative for Children and Armed Conflict, attempted to intervene on a point of order per established protocol, Danon unleashed a vitriolic verbal assault. Refusing to yield, he shouted over her, ordering her to “be quiet” and drowning out the chamber with his outbursts. “Shame on you. You are part of this obsession,” Danon bellowed……

The primary mission of both “Board of Peace” and this week’s agreement between Israel and Lebanon’s “government” is disarmament of resistance factions. 
 
A historical parallel was the disarmament of indigenous peoples within the United States in the 19th century, which by the 1870s was an obsessive focus. Custer’s 7th Cavalry was part of a larger concentration of forces on a mission to eliminate the remaining recalcitrant resistance when they were wiped out by a superior force.
 
The US military’s mission was in support of policies which had supplanted and reneged on previous signed treaties. A consistent tactical approach relied on deadly force directed against soft targets (i.e. undefended villages). Once disarmed, despite promises to the contrary, indigenous populations were deprived of their lands, concentrated in poverty-riven settlements, and subject to concentrated programs designed to eliminate their cultural identities.

DUBAI – An Iranian military commander warned the United States and Israel on July 2 against any attack on Iran as it prepares for the state funeral of supreme leader Ali Khamenei, who was killed in air strikes on the first day of the war.
“We warn the enemies of Iran, especially the US and the Zionist regime (Israel), to avoid any miscalculation and to think about the harsh retaliation our armed forces would make to any threat and aggression against our country,” Ali Abdollahi, commander of Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, said in a statement carried by state media.
Funeral processions for Khamenei will begin on July 4 in Tehran and conclude on July 9 with his burial in his hometown of Mashhad, with additional ceremonies planned in Qom and Iraq between these dates.   
On July 1, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi gave a similar warning that Tehran would deliver an immediate and powerful response to any threat against its people or leadership after comments by Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz that Iran’s current Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei was “marked for death”.
Iranian media reported heightened security measures during the funeral period, while the head of Iran’s Civil Aviation Organisation said on July 1 that temporary airspace restrictions would be implemented over several cities including Tehran and Mashhad. REUTERS

Would a lunatic attack a funeral?Perhaps Isnotreal will use the opportunity to agitate for Iran to counterattack Isnotreal. They could annex or increase the murder of Palestinians in the West Bank or Gaza. They could defile, once again, al Aqsa Mosque…   Isnotreal will not respect a funeral.

https://ejmagnier.com/2026/07/02/the-danger-of-impunity-how-israels-one-thousand-days-of-war-is-reshaping-the-middle-east/
 
After one thousand days of war, Israel has discovered that impunity is not victory. It believed it could fight on every front, destroy without limits, kill without accountability and still impose deterrence. The Western community gave Israel that illusion on a golden plate, shielding it politically and diplomatically while it violated the most basic principles of international law. Yet genocide, the destruction of cities and villages, and the punishment of entire populations did not produce the strategic submission Israel expected. Instead, Israel dragged the United States further into its wars, exhausted the credibility of its army and government, and brought to an end the moral narrative it had lived on since the Second World War.…….

I think the US + Israel have no intention of agreeing to and meeting any of Iran’s terms/demands intact and are merely using delay tactics (fake diplomacy) to prepare for another major attack on Iran, possibly invading with proxy ground forces. Even the unfreezing of stolen assets will be subject to controls and quid pro quo by the US imperialists instead of a good faith gesture.
 
This could result in an expansion of the war and destabilization throughout the region which would bring about far more death and destruction than we’ve witnessed thus far. The conflict in Lebanon is a key indicator of where this is going.

‘Who knows but the conflict is irritating to follow, and daily declarations of ‘Iran won’ or ‘Israel/USA are checkmated’ seem like clickbait at this point.’

Yes.

I’m not a particularly bright person so I don’t like it when what little intelligence I do have is constantly insulted.

The US has lost the war but all its military assets remain in the region and have been fortified to whatever degree possible even given the US’ alleged lack of munitions.

The US lost the war but even the military outposts that were bombarded by Iran are still functioning albeit at a bare bones capacity and there are still plenty of fully operartional bases surrounding Iran.

I wonder if people know that the bases that Iran largely destroyed were already under emergency operational mode and planning going back to last fall and even before, thus evidencing that the Zionist-occupied US was already planning the op and was likewise planning on moving on from that structure of operation at those specific bases.

Perhaps the US wanted the bases and all evidence therein destroyed just like the Zionists destroyed all the evidence of their 9/11 op in the towers during the op itself, and the Pentagon financial records were destroyed when the missile or whatever it was hit the Pentagon exactly where said records were kept.

Just like a Hollywood movie.

Many of the radar systems and what have you are outdated and aren’t going to be used anymore anyway as satellite and other methods are utilized.

But, let’s say all that is wrong and that the Zionist-occupied US actually wants to keep those bases and operate exactly as they have been in the region.

And Iran almost entirely destroyed those bases and then some.

Fine.

But at best what a non-biased person would say then is that the US has lost a battle or multiple battles but is still intending on fighting more battles.

You may then predict that the US will lose all the battles and thus the war.

But that hasn’t happened yet and given all the facts on the ground it seems sheer lunacy to announce the US has lost the war.

I mean, how can you come on a podcast show thingy and start off by saying that the Zionist-occupied US ‘lost the war’ and then proceed to talk about how the Zionist-occupied US is planning more invasions?

What are we all stupid?

Israel planned to assassinate Iranian negotiators, US media report 
 
The New York Times and The Washington Post report that US officials believed Israel was planning to assassinate Iranian negotiators earlier this year, during talks aimed at ending the fighting between Washington and Tehran. 
 
Officials, speaking to both news outlets on condition of anonymity, said Israel had set its sights on assassinating Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and the country’s chief negotiator, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, who is also the speaker of Iran’s parliament. 
 
“You kill those folks, and you’re killing the pragmatists,” one US official told The Washington Post. 
 
Officials who spoke to The New York Times said the US asked countries in the Middle East to warn Iran of the risk. 
 
Israel has a track record of targeting negotiating counterparts in an apparent effort to derail talks to end regional conflicts. 
 
In October, the Israeli military carried out an attack in Doha, targeting a Hamas compound while officials from the group were studying a ceasefire proposal with Israel.

Never underestimate the intuition of a Muslim, because they have a connection to God.
 
So , the actual, discrete admission of US guilt  is confirmation of the suspicions of billions of Muslims, and other truthseeking believers orceven non believers in God.

Israeli Plan to Herd Palestinians Into Controlled “Shelters” to Begin “Within A Matter of Weeks”
 
Israel is preparing to channel Palestinians into fenced “humanitarian shelters” in areas outside Hamas’s control, policed by a foreign force, while its military deepens its occupation of the rest of Gaza, according to the pro-Netanyahu paper Israel Hayom, which reported the plan approvingly.
 
Under the plan, unarmed civilians would be directed to a first zone in Tel al-Sultan, near Rafah, an area Drop Site has documented Israel systematically razing.
 
A “multinational force” – the ISF – operating under the Trump administration’s “Board of Peace” would deploy there from a newly built base, equipped to police the zones, while the Israeli military “continues to maintain and deepen its hold” beyond the Yellow Line.
 
 The camp/base for the force “has already been built,” and the Board of Peace has “begun identifying sites” for logistics warehouses, with the groundwork underway now, and deployment in the coming weeks.
 
The paper described the effort as a “pincer movement”: the military seizing more territory as the population is siphoned into the controlled zones, in the hope that Hamas is left “without a population, territory or resources.”
 
Officials said the areas would receive caravans and aid, but not the concrete needed to actually rebuild Gaza.
 
The plan matches what Drop Site has previously exposed through leaked documents: a surveilled, checkpoint-controlled “planned community” in Rafah designed to force Palestinians into what amounts to an Israeli panopticon, tracked and screened as a condition of receiving aid.
 
An Israeli political source told the paper the military would keep up “the pace of targeted killings while remaining below the threshold of international criticism… as long as Hamas is unwilling to disarm.”  The buildup is already visible: the “Board of Peace” itself posted images of tactical vehicles arriving at a logistics base on June 30, matching the article’s account of preparations underway.

” The ultimate comedic irony of the 21st century is that the nation most likely to lead humanity into the future—and to dethrone the “Judeo-Christian” Jew world order—is, for all intents and purposes, a National Socialist state.
1. One-Party Monopoly on Power Both regimes operate on the principle that a single political party is indistinguishable from the state itself.

• National Socialist Germany: The NSDAP systematically eliminated all rival political parties, labor unions, and independent civic organizations through a process known as Gleichschaltung (coordination).
• Modern China: The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) holds an absolute monopoly on political power. The military (the PLA) is explicitly the armed wing of the Party, not the state—mirroring how the SS and SA operated as party paramilitaries that eventually merged with state security.

2. State-Directed Economics Neither system operates as a purely free market, nor do they function as pure Marxist command economies like the Soviet Union. Instead, both utilize a hybrid model where private enterprise is permitted but heavily subordinated to state goals.

• National Socialist Germany: Private property was maintained, but the state dictated production goals, prices, and resource allocation (e.g., the Four Year Plan) to rapidly prepare for war.
• Modern China: China practices “state capitalism.” While private companies drive much of the economy, the state retains massive State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) in strategic sectors. Furthermore, modern Chinese law mandates that private companies establish internal CCP cells to ensure corporate decisions strictly align with Party objectives.

3. Revanchist Nationalism and Victimhood Narratives Both regimes heavily utilize historical grievances to unify the populace and justify aggressive domestic and foreign policies.

• National Socialist Germany: Exploited the humiliation of the Treaty of Versailles and the “stab-in-the-back” myth following World War I to promise a return to German greatness and justify territorial expansion.
• Modern China: The state heavily promotes the narrative of the “Century of Humiliation”—referring to intervention and imperialism by Western powers and Japan in the 19th and 20th centuries. Xi Jinping’s core platform is the “Great Rejuvenation of the Chinese Nation,” which frames the CCP as the sole entity capable of restoring China to its rightful place as a global superpower.

4. Pervasive Surveillance and Social Control Both systems rely on vast, deeply integrated networks of surveillance to monitor citizens and enforce ideological conformity.

• National Socialist Germany: Relied on the Gestapo, the SD, and a massive network of civilian informants to monitor the populace, creating a climate of fear where neighbors and family members were actively encouraged to report on one another.
• Modern China: Achieves similar social control through unprecedented digital means. The integration of facial recognition, internet censorship (The Great Firewall), digital social credit systems, and the Ministry of State Security allows the state to monitor and police citizen behavior with a level of efficiency totally unavailable to 20th-century regimes.

5. The Cult of the Supreme Leader While the structural mechanics differ slightly, both systems ultimately centralized power into the hands of a single, unquestionable leader.

• National Socialist Germany: Operated strictly on the Führerprinzip (leader principle), where Adolf Hitler’s word was the ultimate law, superseding all written constitutions, courts, or legal frameworks.
• Modern China: Following a long period of collective leadership after the death of Mao Zedong, Xi Jinping has consolidated power to a degree not seen in decades. He abolished presidential term limits and enshrined “Xi Jinping Thought” into the national constitution, effectively making any disagreement with him a direct, illegal challenge to the state itself.”
