Great. Israel proves once again that Iran needs a nuke to protect itself. Iran now has all the reason to quickly develop a nuke, which Israel will take as a pretext to demand the US to invade Iran for them.
An Iranian nuke will make Saudi want one, and then Turkiye will also want one.
Israel is doing everything it can to keep the region in perpetual war, justifying its imperialist and genocidal regime as "self defense".
Not to diminish the other grave consequences of this strike, but because of Trump's tariffs and other erratic behavior, the U.S. economy is teetering on the edge of recession. This strike has already caused oil prices to jump significantly, which will almost certainly speed the onset and deepen the depth of the coming recession.
"Following the pre-emptive strike by the State of Israel against Iran, a missile and UAV (drone) attack against the State of Israel and its civilian population is expected in the immediate time frame," Defence Minister Israel Katz said in a statement.
Amazing how Israel was able to figure out when the unprovoked Iranian attack was going to occur that they managed to get their preemptive strike done in the nick of time.
This Apartheid regime, like that Apartheid regime needs to end. It needs to be crushed and reformed.
When Barghouti is the president of the post-Apartheid State of Israel and Palestine, we can start having peace. You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one etc etc etc.
Bullshit! Who in the hell supplied the satellite intelligence and targeting data. You MAGA fucks better do your "patriotic" duty, sign up for 11 Bravo (Grunt Infanttry) and gear up to invade Iran.
It happened: strikes on Irans capital and nuclear facilities 🇮🇱. Here follows my analysis and the consequences for involved nearby countries.
The main difference between this war and the Russia Ukraine war: Buffer states like Syria and Iraq are between the 2 countries at war, as Iran and Israel have no direct land borders. Furthermore it is insanely hard to to march Infantry masses across these flat desert buffer countries landscape without being spotted by satellites or drones. Syria and Iraq will sustain some damage, as they host pro Iran militia forces and some IS terror cells. This war will cost a lot of rocket-fuel, as the distance between Iran and Israel cities are bigger than those from Ukraine to Russia.
So I predict this will be mostly a war of long range strike- and special forces secret service commando assets in which Israel has an advantage in my assessment. Iran might enrich Uranium further, but only as a gesture, not really a useful outcome for them ☢.
🇸🇦 Saudi-Arabia will profit from this: Its sales of oil will grow, while Iran refinery capacity will be destroyed 🛢 . Russia might benefit indirectly from this with its oil sales to Asia (India and China) and a growing oil price. NATO countries will divert some long range strike assets and artillery munitions to Israel at first to strengthen it, as the US has already sent air defense assets purposed for Ukraine to the middle east theater. But with a defeated Iran Russia will loose power in the middle east and the Caspian-Sea. Azerbaijan and Afghanistan might profit from this as well, their borders with the isolationist mullah regime might become more brittle enabling more sanction avoiding smuggling and small export industry.
The US will benefit from this war in 2 ways: growing oil prices make their fracking industry more competitive and defense contractors like Ratheon stocks will grow 🗽 📈. Israel as a key to the region will strengthen for the US.
🇹🇷 Turkey will stay neutral, they are amassing military forces and industry and neither Iran nor Israel have interest to mess things up with them and divert resources, though Turkey might use this to justify deeper operations inside Syria against PKK forces in the north-east.
Also I expect North Korea to send "secret" observers and assets into Iran as they have done in the Ukraine war, keep looking for them.
just in time as a distraction from all the nationwide protests going in the US, trump desperately needed the news off the protests, as its starting to snowball. so the msm complied and switch off to international news. someone made tha tpoint on reddit too.
