I know this sounds like a bad 1970s soap opera, but the Iranian leadership was evacuated between January 28 and February 26. The bombardment kept the women’s revolution from taking power away from the remaining security forces.

No decapitation has been proven. Two funerals may make for good theater, but the only thing clearly established is a miraculous recovery, with a little help from Medvedev

Except the media is not reporting extensive damage in the western side of the gulf making the strait irrelevant to the flow of hydrocarbons for at least two years.

The Platner gyrations continue.

I can point to this IRGC general, who disappeared from public view around February 8 and was reportedly killed in the decapitation strike. Yet here he is, praying over the Ayatollah’s coffin, which is most likely empty.

The Democratic party has its own issues with white supremacy and cannot even call out an obvious Aryanist like Vance even when he has an obvious breeding project that he has deprived of agency.

Meloni finally saw Trump for what he is. The real oil choke point is Gulf infrastructure damage, not the Strait. The women’s revolution in Iran isn’t fading. Trump’s fake deals only help Russia.

That is incorrect and you should do better by distinguishing Russian gangsterism for what it truly is. It is always been Jabba the Hutt land of gangster paradise. With an evolving facade masquerading as some form of a westphillian state.

While the media is caught up in their spectacle of a fake funeral Persian lioness clashed with security forces in Kermanshah, Shiraz, Lordegan, Mashhad, Ahvaz, Isfahan, Tabriz, and Tehran, with protesters using roadblocks and fire while security forces responded with tear gas and live fire.

This is not Iranian protesters. This is a subset of the population that supports the regime against the women's revolution. You can always tell the difference by the flags

Before we go into voting again, it is time to use the constitutional tools already provided to defend the Republic from anti-democratic forces by enforcing disqualification. Free and fair elections require good-faith participation, and any effort to subvert them should be treated as disqualifying.

Credit is due — the spectacle today is better managed than the Larijani one. This time they’re using real imagery, and the timing is clearly engineered to sync with the July 4th narrative. So Trump can keep falsely claiming he “decapitated” a regime that, had already fled by February 26.

Maggie does the crisis management work with an entire entity doing background puffery and we end up with a massively distorted reality from a completely fubar information space. The fourth estate is captured with only a few doing real journalism as Independents.

More WWE‑style theater — they love Trump and Netanyahu, don’t be fooled. They didn’t take out anyone except low level pawns while the rest of the leadership fled to Russia to avoid being overthrown by the women’s revolution. True story, and it’s all about to come out.

I don’t want to be overly negative, but this is why China is cutting back its subsidies. Wealthy Western states aren’t putting panels to their best use, and all of this ends up reinforcing grid dependence.

Molecules don't lie but Trump betrays: BLUF: The molecule doesn't lie — GL X hands Iran's export chain to Russian operators, turning a sanctions waiver into a dollar lifeline for Putin's War machine. archive.org/details/mole...

The slime crisis continues The algae bloom happened because one guy thought he was smarter than the generals and the engineers. Nobody told him “no,” and the system rotted in public. That’s exactly the same energy behind this “rental military” nonsense — arrogance pretending to be strategy.

The story is much bigger: the western side of the Gulf had its major export capacity knocked offline for about two years, but Iran’s side was never touched — because its export infrastructure is effectively Russian‑owned investment assets. With sanction relief it will fund Putin's War machine.

Now it is about giving a financial lifeline to Putin's War machine that controls Iran's exportable hydrocarbon infrastructure by sanction relief and unfreezing assets with a fake deal that betrays the west and the United States. It will never happen nor is it necessary.

Respectfully, that framing is wrong. He didn’t “capitulate” — he committed outright treachery by trying to give financial lifelines to enemies, especially Russia, which owns Iran’s exportable crude assets. He knew it — he refused to strike those assets. That’s treachery.

Really and you know because Google told you. I guess Google doesn't like you well maybe you don't know how to use it.

I know all about that you are 100% correct anytime we start going down that road of limited nuclear strike it ends in the same place. I don't know who this idiot is that's jumped into this conversation but he doesn't know what he's talking about.

You don't want to hear what the next question. Go back to sleep there's not going to be a nuclear strike because professionals are keeping the peace with those diabolical weapons

If I ask the next question on that line it's going to say yes want to bet? I just know how to ask because I understand the subject matter quite well

Ticos don't drink Corona light either. Why pay the gringo tax when imperial is so much better?

In extremist spaces, “Deus vult” becomes the fallback justification when they’ve run out of rational arguments. It’s a catch‑all sanctification device — a way to frame their extremism as divine mandate rather than ideology.

We obsess over Trump’s naps; I think it’s deliberate trolling and a distraction from real issues including his pedophilia and especially his white‑supremacist insurrection. Let him sleep; at least he's not devising a new method to torture us. It is bad enough we have to hear from him everyday.

The FAFO is far worse and moving faster than reported. Commercial reserves are near the bottom. Of the 172M barrels allotted, ~133M are already in play. They’re hiding numbers — I’ve tracked this for almost 50 years and never seen anything like it.

China stockpiling at 1M bpd while everyone else draws down. When the truth hits, prices explode. drive.proton.me/urls/M6M8SJ3...

Wow — so engineering and history really aren’t your strengths. You’re a retired guy with a couple of solar panels talking like an expert, but you’re missing the fundamentals. I’m giving accurate, established information, and you’re trying to counter it with noise.
