Iran is able to retaliate, partly due to its experience from Russia-Ukraine war.

Remember US and Israel killing Khamenei means that US could, if it wanted, eliminate Putin regime. But it will not want it, neither under Putinยดs underling Krasnov or during any Democratic administration. Unlike islamofascistic Iran, Russia is under a personalist dictatorship.

Russian shadow fleet ships must be intercepted and impounded until no uninsured ships with fake nationalities sail in the North Sea and Baltic Sea. Of course, this means Russia canยดt export oil anymore, but who would want it that anyway?

Exactly. And they have clear, existential external threats to motivate the repression with.

It has been a bit amazing that so many pundits think that the Islamic dictatorship in Iran is a personalist system like MAGA US. Expect those coming in below to genuinely try to avenge their martyrs and also keep up the repression of Iranians.

Looks like while Israel is - as usual - intercepting a majority of Iranian missiles, US allies in the Gulf region are actually being hit by the Iranian strikes, including those with Shahed-type drones. Remember Iran has accumulated knowledge on airstrikes from Russian attacks on Ukraine.

The Pedo Wars were a series of armed conflicts fought by the United States in the early 21st century as a means to distract from the fact that their president was a pedo.

Who would have guessed. โ€œThe best way to proceed is to ignore it,โ€ Chomsky wrote (...) โ€œThatโ€™s particularly true now with the hysteria that has developed about abuse of women, which has reached the point that even questioning a charge is a crime worse than murder.โ€

You know, Finns only achieved about 1:10 at Raate Road. So we can officially consider Ukrainians even meaner than we are.

Nice. This is probably the result of the working group on UNCLOS:

โ€Vessels shall sail under the flag of only one State and vessels that sail under the flags of two or more states, using them according to convenience, may be treated as a ship without nationality, as according to UNCLOS Article 92.โ€

Reminder : Jeffrey Epstein directed Russian dictatorship to manipulate Trump. It is simply incredible that this is not being reported widely.

Epstein emails show that Jeffrey Epstein helped Russia blackmail Trump.

Trump is compromised by Russia and should not be involved in any negotiations involving Russia.

A Russian court ruled in absentia against the Ukrainian commander responsible for sinking the Russian flagship โ€žMoskvaโ€œ, admitting for the first time that ship was struck by a missile.

The Russian authorities say that the โ€žMoskvaโ€œ was conducting a โ€žhumanitarian missionโ€œ when it was sunk. Hilarious.

Here is a key part of President's Zelensky's address in Davos yesterday. What he says outwardly and implicitly is key. Trump actually hates Europe today, will not change, Europe needs to accept that and look after itself.
Bravo!
