How America's War on Iran Backfired
Seventeen years ago, while serving as an Iran desk officer in the U.S. State Department, I asked a more veteran colleague about the latest inflammatory statement by Mahmood Ahmadinejad, then the Iranian president. My colleague responded: “Stop paying attention to Ahmadinejad. Only focus on Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. He makes the important decisions.” He added: “But don’t worry. Change is coming. Khamenei”—who was then 69 and widely believed to have cancer—“could die at…

Calling the war in Iran a success doesn’t make it so
"Any American who has been alive for the past quarter century — especially veterans of our post-9/11 military adventures like me — has seen this movie before and knows how open-ended wars in that part of the world play out," writes Andrew Carleen.

I wonder if the "prediction markets" are taking bets on whether Trump mucks up any peace deal with #Iran before long, and on the next #distraction from #Epstein files.

Today Iran launched the longest range ballistic missile ever used in open warfare by (unsuccessfully) attacking Diego Garcia 4000km away in the Indian Ocean.

Wanted to get a cross section here, as this is NOT in corporate USA news. I have a link to it if you want. Fyi, that's the REAL reason for the Iran attacks. Had you previously heard of it?

Iran has hit far more U.S. military assets than reported, satellite images show
Imagery published by Iranian state-affiliated media and verified by The Post shows damage to at least 228 structures or pieces of equipment at U.S. military sites.

Helping in defense against attacks from Iran should be the maximum that Europe does, no involvement in any actions against Iran, on or above it's territory or anything like that. We need maximum resources for security on our own continent and for the war against Russia. It would be typical Trump to first destroy Iran and then ask Europe to clean up his mess...

This post is a set of my observations on the current war in Iran and my thoughts on the broader strategic implications. I am not, of course, an expert on the region nor do I have access to any spec…

So Trump is probably looking for some face-saving delay for the deadline. After which Trump will have made himself less credible again (!) for any future deadline. Also what remains is a mentally disturbed president threatening civilzations..
#Iran #USA

Iran talks show glimmer of progress as Trump deadline looms
The thinking in the White House has shifted from "can we get there?" to "can we get there by 8 o'clock tonight?"

Israël probably won't like the idea of a two-week ceasefire as Pakistan has proposed to Iran and the USA 🤔, also a good time for Iran to recover a little, maybe import some weapons from Russia etcetera
#iran #usa #pakistan

Trump's goals with Iran are unclear while for Iran the goals are simple, just survive as a regime and drag this conflict out as long as possible, something Trump can't have at home.
#iran #trump #usa

Iran will happily negotiate with the US in Islamabad while having the continuous option to close the strait of Hormuz, fire some drones now and then...make the US negotiating team look silly because Trump wants to prevent at all costs to start bombing again... (My guess)
#iran #usa

So Trump lost this war with Iran he started and the rest of the world pays the price. Freedom of navigation has been given up in Hormuz, we pay a million per vessel. Iran has a very strong negotiating position, will play for time , acquire weapons, reinforce/rebuild, surpress the Iranian people, I am forgetting anything?
#trump

Russia has an interest in high oil prices, it has an incentive to support the Iranian regime, in surviving and striking targets around Hormuz. It also distracts attention from their main conflict, the war with Ukraine. Also it can divide the european countries, NATO and the US further, all wins.
#russia #iran

My guess, Israël's goal is to destroy and/or degrade Iran so it won't be a threat for the next 10-20 years, they are well on their way. They are not interested in the fate of the Iranian people, stability in the Gulf region etc. The USA is a useful tool in executing this.
#iran #israel

So Trump communicated a ceasefire that isn't there, this makes him look extremely weak, also Iran controls Hormuz, Trump is essentially empty handed.
#trump #iran #israel

I expect that part of the reason why Trump blinked also had to do with his limited supply of (smart) munitions, a further escalation would have depleted it to dangerously low levels. Iran knew this also ofcourse.
#trump #iran

Let's make no mistake, a two-week ceasefire is a "win" for Iran.
