If the situation becomes dire, Putin could start with laying bombs in europe, for example at munitions factories, drone production facilities etc. If the attacks are only just a little bit deniable, Trump will not lift a finger, no art.5 NATO will be involved. I am wondering if people in Europe are mentally prepared for that.

Israël getting hit by ballistic missiles, Dimona and Arad, but almost no news coverage on mainstream websites (yet).

This infographic is going around about the deployement of US forces in the Middle East, you can argue about some details but it illustrates the sheer size of the deployement.

The practical implications of abolishing the current tariffs and replacing them with the overall 10% tariff will be interesting, will all made trade deals change? Or renegotiated? Chaos. De-invest from the US, move to Europe.

So if there is peace today, Hormuz will not be safe for the next six months. And peace is not even close. Governments have to adjust their scenarios if this estimate is correct. Flow of oil will be disrupted for a long time.

Clearing Strait of Hormuz of mines could take 6 months, Pentagon tells Congress
The Pentagon assessment, shared in a classified briefing for lawmakers, suggests gasoline and oil prices could remain elevated through the midterm elections.

Good read, how Trump is setting himself up for failure.

Trump Still Doesn’t Understand Iran, Or the Mess He’s Made
His 48-hour ultimatum to Tehran reveals something deeper than bluster: a strategic failure to understand the adversary.

I am not sure whether blowing a hole in the engine room of a ship can be called a "ceasefire" 🤔

Oh sure and now the threatening starts....

The deranged US president who first could defeat Iran completely by himself now suddenly wants other countries to join a "team effort"...
#trump #iran #geopolitics @…

Smart move diplomatically by Iran, opening the strait of Hormuz, makes them look "in control" ,

It is terrible to see a large part of Lebanon getting "the Gaza treatment" and nobody is stopping Israel. Many innocent civilians are dying and good to remember, Lebanon is another country and not part of Israel....

The cynical part is that when all possible targets in Iran are destroyed, Trump will declare victory, leave and let the rest of the world deal with the consequences and instability.

Good to repeat, NATO has useful standards, processes and procedures which can transfer to a new alliance without the USA but including most European countries and Canada.

It's maddening that Trump and Trump only plunges the world into war and an energycrisis/recession. Also remember all those dumb Trump voters and supporters who brought him to power while it was clear what would happen...

For Iran the question is can we just sit this one out , without striking back somewhere (with their limited capabilities) or do we have to do something to remain credible.

So Trump let's Israël start the war with Iran so he can claim he didn't started it? 🤔

Nice map which explains that oilshortages will start in a few weeks, not everywhere, some parts of the world will be fine.

With regard to Kharg Island I have no doubt the US can take this with a brilliant tactical operation with limited casualties, but holding it and achieving strategic objectives will be the hard part.

This is actually a real message from the president of the USA. I checked because it looked completely insane and criminal.
#trump #iran #usa

Rules of Engagement, adhering to international law, to your own constitution , has real advantages, that have nothing to do with idealism. Trump is throwing that all away and slowly but surely destroying US power and influence.
#usa #iran

So the "plan" in Iran is to destroy all military facilities in Iran and then wait for the people to remove IRGC from power which costed thousands of lives last time they tried it.... 🤔
#iran #usa #geopolitics

Trump is not attacking Iran for the Iranian people. If the Iranian people fight against their government he will watch from the sky, maybe offer some air support but will not get involved on the ground...
#iran #usa #geopolitics

Trump is threatening countries only because his position on tariffs and trade is now much weaker.
#Trump #tariffs #trade

The UK letting the US use it’s airbases for attacking Iran is so dumb…..
#uk #usa #iran #geopolitics

So Trump first creates the problem and now you can pay him for protection, in true Mafia style.
