OSLO, March 3 (Reuters) – The impact on energy flows of U.S. and Israeli military attacks on Iran and Iran’s drone and missile launches against its neighbors could reopen debate in the European Union over banning Russian natural gas imports, Norway’s energy minister said on Tuesday.
European gas prices have jumped 75% this week, hitting multi-year highs as hostilities in and around Iran have impacted gas exports from the Gulf..
This is just ther beginning of the catastrophic inflation in gas prices for Euroturdistan.
From Andrei Martyanov’s Blog
[Knocking another one out of the park…]
“Europe can surely “reopen debate” and debate this debate until hell freezes over, but as Russian anecdote goes about a single babushka being a lone seller of sunflower seeds at the completely empty marketplace–responding to a dude who complained that her sunflower seeds are too expensive, she suggested him to “walk around the market, find a better price”.
Poor, poor dear this Mark Champion (a rather pretentious second name for a guy who is a sore loser) of Bloomberg, he laments:
Bo-Who Bloomberg
“The only winner in the US and Israel’s conflict with Iran is Putin, writes Bloomberg. Columnist Mark Champion argues that US Navy strikes on Iranian targets reduce the likelihood of arms supplies to Ukraine and deplete American missile stocks. This also fuels the rise in global oil and gas prices, which benefits Russia. A prolonged closure of the Strait of Hormuz could revive the market for Russian energy, providing an opportunity to sell unsold oil.
This is what happens when you have a fraudulent “degree” from Georgetown in “Russian studies” and know nothing but more or less proper grammar when writing about things you have no clue about. We knew it was bad, but now it does disintegrate and the only thing they have left is spin. US legacy media are complicit in covering up pedophilia and what amounts to a treason by ruling class, because of that they are one and the same. There is no distinction. Per Macron and France … LOL. ”
There is only one REAL intelligence in the Universe and it is the intelligence which created that Universe in the first place and thereby governs literally ALL of that Universe’s observable “rules” of operation, which geeks call Science and Logic and Saints call God’s Law and Justice.
We humans, seeking to learn those rules-of-the-road for this world (which we seem to be inescapably stuck in) well enough to survive in it, were simply trying to copy as best we could what was already there and within which we had no choice but to live and work.
So what happens when you do that? What happens when you seek to find out what the heck is this world you’re in all of a sudden, without forewarning?
I’m not trying to be cute & clever with this question here. I mean it as a dead serious question. What happens when you try to copy the entire environment using words and textbooks and careful investigations which are then translated into all of the parts of a language which enables us to see, record and share our findings with other people, and they with us?
What happens is that you develop a TECHNOLOGY, in this case the techniques for communication called LANGUAGE along with the attendant sub-disciplines of language called speech, observation and logic. The language itself is a technological tool of the highest order. It enables groups to exist collaborate and create thought patterns of enormous size that can be turned into complex material and non-material structures called “products” that no single individual could even dream of producing on their own.
Those shared thought patterns can be very impressive. That’s because they are so much bigger than anything we could do on our own. Yup. 10 guys working together can outproduce 1 guy working alone at better than 10 to 1, and that is certainly impressive, and we tend to remember and utilize what we learn from impressive events. We share that knowledge between each other and among ourselves and we call that entire “process” of sharing knowledge LANGUAGE and COMMUNICATION.
Copy it well enough and you will notice that the TECNOLOGY ITSELF (in this case the technology of language and communication) is in fact merely an extremely thin, substandard and very short lived “replica” or “substitute” for the real thing that we’re striving to acquire. But it sure can be made to LOOK like the real thing anyway. Well, it looks that way because it is a very very VERY carefully made copy.
But it is NOT the real thing. It is a copy, very comparable to the paper that pops out of your xerox machine that looks just like the original.
Language and communication copies reality so well that it can start to look like the actual thing that it is trying to emulate: INTELLIGENCE.
Well it ain’t. The copy is NOT intelligence. It is SIMULATED intelligence, and simulated intelligence is absolutely guaranteed to get you killed because it can never, ever, know if it is right or wrong because there is no consciousness in it. Nor could there ever be.
INTELLIGENCE is the consciously aware capacity to know the difference between true from false, right from wrong, and then initiate action intended to bring misaligned parts into better alignment, so that we and others can live.
ARTIFICIAL intelligence is the simulation of that process, which mimics very closely the patterns and processes of human language, and thereby constitutes a machine that processes data just like we do. Look at all the dials, bells and whistles of it’s output is impressive. The big difference is that you know who’s reading the dials and the machine doesn’t know anything. At All.
It’s very impressive because it can process language and logic based data overwhelmingly faster than a single human. What makes it very un-impressive in that without someone to appreciate its output the “thought spewing machine” is just a big pile of junk.
But here’s the part the RoboBoyz always miss when brainstorming their strategy for ruling the world with AI robot control from the comfort of their big easy chairs in Central Control Central.
The rules of language and logic based machine intelligence apply to the herd as much as they do to the pinnacles of power who think they can use ARTIFICIAL intelligence robot machines to rule over the slaves.
The elites with their electronic machine intelligences did not foresee that the herd itself would operate JUST LIKE like a “machine” intelligence, because language and communication ARE the material architecture of thought, which is merely an attempted mimicry of reality.
In other words, the herd has a mind of its own.
And I don’t mean that just in the figurative sense. I mean it in the LITERAL sense, too. The Interchange between all of humanity, through the communication of language delineated ideas, operates as an enormous “machine intelligence”, whose output is manifested in the precise conditions of its entire civilization (wall-to-wall) within the limits and constraints of what humanity can physically control or effect at all.
In other words, humanity operates like a machine intelligence under the direction of its consciously aware and purposeful Creator.
So far, humanity seems to have come up with the right answers well enough to still be here (answers to the questions of what is true and what is false, what is right and what is wrong, what should people do and what should people not do) , because we take advantage of God’s good graces who is standing by ready and willing just for the asking, to check their homework before handing it in for a final grade.
Just tell him what you think you should do next and ask his advice on whether it’s a good idea or not.

5. Tag im Angriffskrieg Israels und der USA gegen den Iran (Ticker 17:00 Uhr)
Day 5 in Israel’s and the USA’s war of aggression against Iran (Ticker 17:00)
March 4th, 2026
by Peter F. Mayer / Jochen MitschkaThe news of new losses of the Iranian fleet came this morning from an unexpected source: The frigate “Dena” of the Iranian Navy sank off Sri Lanka. About 180 people were on board the ship. 30 sailors were rescued and taken to hospital. The death toll is at least 78 people. The U.S. confirmed the attack by a submarine – a clear act of piracy, since the U.S. has not declared war on Iran. Dena came from a fleet parade in India.

ARE CHINESE TROOPS ALREADY IN IRAN TO TEST HYPER WEAPONS?A high-ranking Russian general with direct ties to the Kremlin has just dropped a massive information bombshell. Chinese military personnel are already on the ground in Iran to test its latest weapons systems. The US and Israel did not see this coming.
The bomb of General Popov
➡️ Retired Russian Major General Vladimir Popov is highly decorated and has far-reaching connections.
➡️ In an interview, he just explained that Chinese troops are already in Iran.
➡️ Not as a consultant. But as active weapons testers.
➡️ Their mission is to test hypersonic missiles and bombs at Iranian test sites.The Zwite Wave Stratgy
➡️ The Iranians have not yet used their most powerful weapons.
➡️ They are holding back a second wave until the logistics of the USA are exhausted.
➡️ Popov explains that Iran is saving everything for the moment when the situation becomes truly catastrophic.
➡️ China is supplying them with supplies precisely for this moment.–
Kim Dotcom
@KimDotcomChina is at war with the US via Iran.
Iranian missiles hit accurately.
The targets are chosen with precision and the results are successful. It suggests that this is no longer limited to Iran’s capabilities.
Iran knows in which hotel and on which floor the CIA and Mossad agents are.
During the 12-day war the accuracy of Iranian missiles was low. Now they don’t miss.
I think China is involved in this war. China helps identify American targets in Arab countries and provides electronic intelligence.
This means that the “eastern front” may soon open up.

Absolute panic in South Korea as stocks collapse by more than 12%, their single worst day in history
Larry Johnson lends a little reality to the Air Defense missile math of Empire of Lies AD inventory:
Trumpturd Fanboys: Read & Weep
Note that I am assuming that the entire inventory of US Patriot missiles have been deployed to Israel and US bases in the region. That is a false assumption because there are Patriot missile batteries with a full complement of missiles in other theaters.
At present there are three Patriot battalions permanently assigned/forward-deployed to INDOPACOM (e.g., in South Korea/Japan/Guam areas, like 35th ADA Brigade and 1-1 ADA at Kadena); EUCOM has one Patriot battalion assigned (e.g., units in Germany like Baumholder/Ansbach areas, supporting NATO/Eastern flank).
The US Army has 15 Patriot battalions total (14 fully available as of mid-2025, with one in modernization), each typically consisting of 4–6 batteries (a battery is the firing unit with launchers/radars).
A Patriot battery (also called a fire unit) typically includes 6–8 launchers (Launching Stations), though configurations vary by operator, mission, and launcher type (e.g., M903 for modern U.S. systems).
If we assume that the four Patriot battalions have four batteries each, with 72 missiles per battery, we get a total of 1,152 missiles that must be subtracted from the maximum possible number deployed to the Middle East — i.e., the actual inventory, using the most conservative estimate, is 1,221.
That means the US inventory of PAC-3 MSE missiles, using the assumptions above that Iran is firing 60 ballistic missiles per day, the supply of missiles will run out in 10 days.
This is why I assert that Donald Trump is out of touch with reality.
Please, please, Great Sky God, allow Trumptard to put USSA Navy ships into the Straits of Hormuz, PLEASE!

The Astronomical Daily Costs of the US-Israel-Iran War: Billions and CountingThe escalating conflict between the United States, Israel, and Iran, now in its fourth day as of March 3, 2026, has unleashed not only military and humanitarian devastation but also staggering economic burdens.
Daily costs for the primary belligerents and affected regional players are running into the multi-billion-dollar range, driven by intense military operations, defensive expenditures, infrastructure damage, and widespread economic disruptions.
For Israel, earlier phases of direct confrontation with Iran (such as the 12-day war in June 2025) provide a benchmark. Direct operational costs, covering aircraft fuel, maintenance, sortie generation, and offensive munitions, were estimated at around $700 million per day.
However, when factoring in the high price of defensive interceptors (David’s Sling, Arrow 2-3, Patriots, SM-3, SM-6, and THAAD) plus structural damages from missile impacts, the total surged to approximately $2 billion per day.
In the current escalation, with heavier barrages and sustained strikes, comprehensive daily figures, including operations, interceptors, and repairs, could easily exceed $4 billion for the US due to intelligence operations, high numbers of Tomahawk missiles used, and heavy damage to local military bases.
Notably, damage to the base in Qatar has reportedly cost more than $10 billion.Combining these, the US-Israel side alone may be incurring $4-5 billion daily in costs during the last three days.
The ripple effects extend sharply to Arab Gulf countries (UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain), where airspace closures, airport shutdowns, and retaliatory strikes have crippled aviation hubs, creating impacts over $1 billion per day in direct losses.
When adding secondary economic hits (tourism collapse, energy market chaos, supply chain interruptions), Gulf states could face an additional $3-4 billion daily in combined damages.
Altogether, the combined daily toll from US and Israeli military expenditures to Gulf economic fallout, could reach $7–10 billion per day or more, if other economic sectors are considered, a figure that aligns with analyst warnings of attritional warfare burning through resources at an unsustainable pace.
The extension of naval drones into the Med, (on a Russian LNG carrier by Ukraine from Libya), should make the UK and France think twice before sending underarmed and without sufficient AD capital ships there.
aaand the Houthi Government has not even entered the war yet. A last key point is that US ships have to be reloaded in port (vertically), which at the moment is Diego Garcia, a long way away.

UrgentIranian military capabilities are now being deployed:
Attention everyone | High-risk security alert
Our forces are fully and accurately aware of the presence of the French terrorist force stationed in the Iraqi province of Diyala, specifically in the Jalawla district, at the positions of the Iraqi Army’s 1st Division. This force is equipped with TRC systems designed to disrupt drone operations targeting enemy positions.
Therefore, to protect the lives of Iraqi soldiers from the effects of missile strikes, the decision has been made to eliminate these mercenaries through special field operations unless the force and its equipment withdraw from Jalawla.
Furthermore, we urge the leadership of the 1st Division and all its personnel not to wear any uniform that resembles that of the French force stationed there.
A very difficult decision will be made regarding this force, which, by God’s will, will not be able to escape.
Unless the French force withdraws, the news of their liquidation will be a headline in all the world’s newspapers.
ZOG, evident since 1913/ Fed, implied since JFK/Liberty, obvious since 911, deadly since Covid jewjab. Now WW3. You have to be 1 dumb motherfucker to not see now.
Had to go do real things in the real world, and this is like I’ve been saying but not doing.
I disagree with everything being written right now: The US is not awesome right now. Iran is decisively not a terrorist state. Their response is disappointing but not terrible. Ours was unexpectedly firm but may be “lucky.” White nations aren’t failing: one thing Iran shows is that the U.S. is completely capable if we choose to be. That’s the same with all nations.
Other nations, people (Dugin, Krainer) are alarmed and crestfallen. They may be correct. It depends what’s actually happening, but the problem is, it’s been nothing but lies since CIA Director Casey (“Every single thing they believe will be a lie”) and it has been only increasing, not receding. So IF I am correct – and that’s a huge IF – THEN my generally upbeat, sanguine view is justified. There are no data points clearly removing it yet. However, IF it is not – and there are 100 ways that might be the case – THEN it’s probably nearly as bad as people say. Not that there’s some new level of villainy – Epstein has cured all of us from saying that – but that the world world is made of unreflective retards who will just keep limping along by killing randomly. And why not, yes?
I’ll hold to the view I’ve been on – Markets especially seem to say so, ebullient right now, elated the war is good and ending soon – and post when I have time.
Comments:
Barron Trump: They would murder Barron the second he enlisted. Then you would cheer.Trump Draft-dodged. Is that really proving your point though? And so you enthusiastically approved of the Vietnam war, Mai Lai and the Tet offensive? Let me know. I’ve always found this “But they draft-dodged an idiotic, cruel, unnecessary, evil, banker’s war” a strange argument. I mean, I would have (didn’t have to), did you?
So your argument is, IF there is a cruel, stupid, evil banker’s war, AND they arrest you to make you go, you should just go? I don’t think that squares very well with American values. Anyway, the point is: no one has a point. They just say things. Their goal is to MAKE Barron join, then murder him and laugh. Classy. Killing people, gloating, POWER: THAT, is the point. Don’t be that guy.
“Iran Just Destroyed THAAD — The U.S. Has No Defense Left” Asian Guy
Yup, Iran just invaded and conquered us. All our leaders are dead, and they are sinking our ships at will. Like Father Phi videos, Day 200 of trying to get AI not to lie. We’re helpless, as you can tell by no ships being sunk.
“Worse than 2008” as stocks do nothing oil does nothing, gold and silver do nothing, gas is $3, housing is high, and no banks fail. Yup. I remember that was exactly what ‘08 was like and why we all wrote a million articles about it. I remember how Michael Burry made all that money betting against the “Nothing” that “Didn’t happen.”
Asian Guy. Can you AT LEAST forward his videos that aren’t openly, headline false? Have mercy on my poor embattered sanity, man, I beg you. At least ONE thing he says per episode must be true. Just ONE. Deal?
“Iran war: Iran is being destroyed, Trump is winning!”
I don’t know what “winning” is, I’m not that thrilled about it, but probably. They’re not landing any punches and any minute they run out of missiles. The U.S. insures all ships in the gulf, as London (predictably) tries to make trouble by refusing to insure. But think about this: by what right is London issuing the insurance? It’s long said that the US NAVY insures the world seas. While I don’t WANT this to be the case, everyone agrees. So essentially: London writes free insurance against the US NAVY’s actual paid enforcement. We ABSOLUTELY should Insure instead of them! We’re the only ones doing work! That’s what’s happening now, and was starting to happen for Putin as well.
“Make certain there is a war: Before Khamenei Killing, CIA Assessed He Would Likely Be Replaced by More Hardline Elements of the IRGC”
Yes. But just as the CIA is against America and would kill us all if they could, the IRGC is against Iranians. …Then who are they FOR? Arguably, globalists. Satanists. Just like our own CIA. Thus the delicious problem MI6 n Co have arranged for us all. AND! They can call us villains if we act! How dare you punish Satanists?! Don’t you know killing is BAD, sir?
Okay, my point is, RUSSIA is in there deciding it right now. CHINA is inside Iran deciding it right now. They will all see who floats to the top as a REAL Iranian core and leader, and back them. We will throw a big Kafabe fit about it and let them. The problem was, as a very controlled regime, any opposition talent is co-opted “by Goldberg”. They are both regime AND run the “anti-regime”. …Or did you actually think those ladies called “Wednesday Adams” lighting their cigarettes in Tehran were real? Hahahaha! No. All fake. So if you’re Russia, wtf is “Real”? How could you possibly prove?
I can’t prove any of this, but it’s as obvious as the sun coming up in the morning. Use your head.
“..Western interceptor stockpiles in crisis. Rubio confirmed publicly” I’m sure the are. We suck, and like sucking bc it’s sooper-easy to fix this problem. However, we still suck less than you.
“Meryl Nass MD, There are very serious laws of war. We and Israel are commiting war crimes. We are the terrorists today, not Iran. This is being done in our name, and we too may experience the consequences.
You are not allowed to attack civilian targets, period. It is a crime and those who select and bomb those targets deserve a court martial.”Agree. 1St: you need a declaration of war. …And a REASON? 2nd: bring your court cases. That’s what they’re for.
“US B-2 Bombers Belatedly Authorized To Use British Bases To Hit Deep Inside Iran”
England totally against this. When was England last against Israel, or War in M.E.? 1909? 1809? Okay, data point that keeps popping up here. So England hates Israel all a-sudden?
“we’re in a war with Iran because Israel forced our hand. This is basically the worst possible thing he could have said.”
Why? Do people hate the Truth that much? Seems the obvious thing to say, I’d headline it if I were him, and we can all discuss it openly for the first time since Kennedy. We can then discuss the “Liberty” too.
“Iran: We have nothing to do with the attack on the Saudi Aramco refinery, it was Israel”
Fog of war but wouldn’t surprise me. Nor Tucker’s allegation that was instantly refuted. I totally believe Israel would and would be shocked silly if they didn’t.
“All the air defense missiles in the US are for Israel. “America has abandoned us” – Saudi official”
WTF is WRONG with you people??? You have more money than God, you’re part of BRIICSSSS, our stuff sucks balls, and Russia was selling it to you. Like this is OUR fault? It’s not my fault you were born retarded. Buy an S300 if you want to live, moron. PS read any history book with “America” and “Treaty” in it. I have.
“So far we’ve heard that although we killed the whole Iranian regime, this was not a regime change war.”
Agree, Matt Walsh. NOW! Would somebody like to TELL THE TRUTH, put a bullet in Asian Guy’s central CPU and listen to any pundit – ANYWHERE – who’s been right for once and not constantly always, deadly, wrong? Nope. Nobody is doing any of those things. Nor you either, or your roster would substantially change. Saying it for years now: LISTEN TO THE PEOPLE WHO WERE RIGHT BEFORE. This is what happens if you don’t: All lies, no one calls anyone on it, eventually all language becomes gibberish. “Subprime is Contained” “Green Shoots” “They’ll greet us with flowers.” Raul, TAE, and all us were right on every one of those. They shouted us down for years and still are.

“France’s nuclear ‘renaissance’ faces uncertainty amid uranium crunch”
There’s zero “Crunch”, all the same Uranium is still there. Mined by the same mines. France just doesn’t want to pay. Black Africans aren’t humans, I guess, their markets aren’t real.
“US Navy strikes on Iranian targets reduce the likelihood of arms supplies to Ukraine and deplete American missile stocks. This also fuels the rise in global oil and gas prices, which benefits Russia. A prolonged closure of the Strait of Hormuz could revive the market for Russian energy, providing an opportunity to sell unsold oil.”
What does he mean? All those sound good for America. I’d pay to have that happen. The only sad part on that list is Israel still exists, but that seems to be getting fixed.
“Israeli F-35 Just Shot Down Iranian Fighter Jet Over Tehran”
Sadly, Asian guy, so I have to assume it’s dead-wrong. However, this is what Luongo was saying we are fly-at-will over all Iran, and I think that was morning yesterday. Odd: if that’s true, we are WINNING and the media refuses to report. Huh. Pretty funny. Aren’t these the same guys can’t stop lying about how awesome we were in Israel, Iraq War, … heck, VietNam, Grenada… for a zillion years since before I was born? Yet someone flipped a switch – “The Memo” went out – and now America is required to LOSE when we’re winning, instead of saying we WIN when we’re clearly losing. I don’t care which, but would you like to explain?
““It’s not a War”, drd

They blew out all their markets +1 month ago in the biggest explosion since the Death Star. Don’t just chase the shiny object. Maybe the Olympic medals caused this? Maybe the Lawsuit in Georgia? Yeah, I don’t think so. And that also means Korea’s market may have nothing to do with the war either, since this problem could be predicted from orbit before Jan 1st.

“3 US F-15s DOWNED — By America’s OWN Ally Over Kuwait”
My present bet is that Kuwait F18 blew them up, but there’s no special reason to believe it. What fascinates me is that anybody cares. Why? Would it matter either way? If you have a “war” then you fly a lot of planes in a hurry, then this definitely happens. If Iran shot them, would it be better for you? Worse? Why?
“IRAN NARRATIVE CRUMBLING” What narrative? There’s a narrative? They keep making s–t up then refuting it. Exhausting.See now? I did not really have time to review all that. Sigh.
Why don’t Trump’s warships dare to approach the Persian Gulf
Viewpoint from Tasnim News Agency in Iran, machine translated.
The IRGC announced today that it had targeted an American war vessel using “Qadr 380” and “Galtier” missiles from about 600 kilometers away, in the northern Indian Ocean. While the vessel was fueling.
The important thing is that these missiles have a range of more than a thousand kilometers. Therefore, in order to target vessels, the IRGC Navy does not necessarily need to be deployed near the coast; it can deploy missile launchers deep into the country and from there to hit naval targets.
Another important feature of these missiles is the ability to change the direction in the final stage, which means that they can move towards the target in different directions and correct their path to hit the target more accurately. Of course, the “Qadr 380” missile may have a higher radar cross-section due to the engine’s position outside the body, but it has an important advantage: a very simple and fast launch pad. This simplicity makes it possible to prepare and shoot quickly, and production is not complicated. For this reason, these missiles are produced in large quantities and are available to operational forces.
The Americans have announced that they are willing to escort tankers and merchant ships in the Strait of Hormuz, but they also seem to know that such a plan is very difficult to implement in practice. If U.S. warships actually enter the Strait of Hormuz or the Persian Gulf, they will become easy targets for Iranian naval forces.
The statement of the CENTCOM commander that the United States has destroyed 17 Iranian vessels and that Iran no longer has an active vessel in the region, is more like a psychological war. Some of the vessels targeted were support vessels, and some may have been combat vessels located at the dock. But the main part of Iran’s naval power is based on fast-paced vessels, which are very difficult for large carriers and are very efficient in the closed environment of the Persian Gulf for rapid operation, high maneuvers and mass firing of cruise missiles.
In fact, one of the main reasons why Americans do not even approach the Iranian coast in the Oman Sea is the same naval power, let alone in the Strait of Hormuz.
We can look forward to:

Ten hours. That’s what it took for Iran to:
put the Empire of Chaos, Plunder and Permanent Strikes under siege all across the Gulf.
bomb 27 major US military bases, relentlessly – inflicting extensive damage.
determine that all US and Israeli assets and interests in West Asia are legitimate targets for retaliation.
block the Strait of Hormuz (then unblocked; but free passage only for Russian and Chinese vessels).
Up next: if US warships do not retreat, they will be sunk.The whole drama, predictably, developed as Deceit in the Making. The war was ordered by the leader of a death cult in West Asia, a genocidal psycho who then took refuge in his “Wing of Zion” and fled to… Berlin. His American sidekick, neo-Caligula, a megalomaniacal Narcissus, co-ordered the war from Mar-a-Lago.
Their spectacular success on Day One: to kill Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei in a decapitation strike. And to kill scores of girls – 100+ and counting – in an elementary school in southern Iran.
Predictably, this was also a remix of the assassination of Hezbollah’s Sayyed Nasrallah in Beirut.
During indirect “negotiations” in Oman the Trump 2.0 team required Tehran to clarify an offer that required some final fine-tuning.
Oman’s Foreign Minister Badr bin Hamad al Busaidi confirmed that Iran, for the first time, agreed to “never” accumulate nuclear material for a bomb; maintain zero stockpiles of enriched material; agree that existing stockpiles would be down-blended; and allow full IAEA verification.
The meeting took place in Tehran on Saturday morning, uniting top members of the Iranian leadeship.
The Epstein Syndicate duly bombed the meeting, killing top officials plus Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei. The Empire of Chaos does not do negotiations: it uses them as a weapon.
Yet there was no instant collapse leading to regime change. Less than half an hour after being struck, the Tehran leadership launched a stunning, lightning-fast, coordinated counterpunch on a massive scale, in 24-hour continuous launch mode, thus establishing the parameters of escalation as well as resilience supremacy on the battlefield.
For instance, Iranian tactics are now very different compared to the 12-day war. In the second wave against Bahrain, they used Shahed-136 kamikaze drones only after a massive ballistic missile barrage which completely bewildered US defense systems. The result: scores of expensive interceptors expended too early. The drones only came later.
Only on Day 1 Iran fired over 1,200 missiles and drones. Tehran has tens of thousands of missiles and drones in stock. US interceptors are about to run dry in a matter of days. Each THAAD costs $15 million. The math is definitely not leaning the imperial way.
From martyrdom to revenge
Iran going after US assets in Dubai is a masterful strategic play – linked to destroying sheltering US military personnel and/or clandestine CIA digs. All those tacky Dubai symbols of bling bling opulence are on fire; Burj Khalifa, Burj Al Arab, Palm Jumeirah.
As correctly argued here, 88% of the population of Dubai is foreign. Apart from being the world capital of money laundering, this is most of all a special economic zone with a flag, now running the risk of a bank run.
After all, the UAE does not produce anything – as in productive capitalism; it’s a tax-free service economy built around bling bling opulence and safety (now gone).
Dubai also happens to have enormous leverage over neo-Caligula – as in “Trump coins”, personal investments, donations to the Board of Peace, a.k.a. Board of War. Aviation is 27% of Dubai’s GDP – and 18% of the UAE’s. Dubai airport in the dark is an absolute disaster. Mega-airlines like Emirates, Etihad and Qatar Airways – complete with their mega-airports – are key vehicles/nodes of the global transportation matrix.
Dubai in the dark is a very bad business proposition for Trump. There’s no question MbZ is already on the phone begging for a ceasefire. Moreover, Tehran also made clear that energy giants Chevron and ExxonMobil are legitimate targets. So it’s no wonder neo-Caligula already wanted a ceasefire on Day 1, communicated via Italian diplomatic channels to Iran.
Whatever the torrents of speculation on whether the genocidal psycho in Tel Aviv did force neo-Caligula to go to war when his Invincible Armada was still not ready, the fact is the Pentagon lost the strategic initiative.
The script is being written in Tehran; that’s going to be a war of attrition, where Tehran has gamed every possible scenario.
So here’s how it all developed, in a flash. Decapitation strike. Council of Experts convened in minutes. IRGC: “maximum force” response within the hour, unleashed over the death cult + petro-chihuahuas. Succession mechanism: in place. Command structure: in place. No regime change. Zero imperial strategic dominance. From martyrdom to revenge.
The whole Global South is watching.
Total strategic rupture
According to several IRGC sources, Ayatollah Khamenei had everything prepared in excruciating detail via a series of directives. He had instructed Ali Larijani, the secretary of the Security Council, and selected leadership members not only on how Iran could resist to the Epstein Syndicate firepower but also any assassination attempts, including on himself. Khamenei was killed alongside Ali Shamkhani, the former National Security Council secretary, and IRGC Commander Mohammed Pakpour.
Khamenei named no less than four layers of succession for each key military command and government role. No wonder all crucial decisions after the decapitation were taken in record time.
The genocidal/murderous American-Israeli duo has no idea what’s coming. They managed to affront the whole of the Shi’ite world – not to mention hundreds of millions of Sunni Muslims as well.
Total strategic rupture does not even begin to describe it: we have reached the absolute point of no return between Washington and Tehran. Instead of this childish notion of regime change, which only braindead fanatical Zionists can entertain, the killing of Khamenei is consolidating a national consensus; legitimizing a no holds barred retaliation; and unleashing a multi-front confrontation stretching from the Gulf to the Levant.
Iran’s immediate tactics are crystal clear: to saturate Israeli air defences and trigger a massive Interceptor Crisis. That is bound to compel Israeli generals to beg neo-Caligula for a ceasefire – even as Iran will not cease to pick Israel’s infrastructure and economy apart, possibly causing the death cult to crack in a matter of days.
Russia and China meanwhile will be working in the shade to ensure Iran’s defense network remains intact.
If West Asia gas and oil stops flowing only for a few days, all ominous bets are off when it comes to the global economy. Iran has gamed all scenarios and can apply and release pressure at will.
The Global South will be learning all the lessons of how the Iranian leadership displays solidarity and clear objectives while forced on an unprecedented fight on several fronts against the imperial colossus – and that after 47 years of relentless sanctions. This kind of resistance, in itself, is already a miracle.
Now the path may be opened towards the end of American military footprint across West Asia – something envisioned by a lineage of martyrs, from Soleimani and Nasrallah to Khamenei.
We may just be reaching the portal of the post-U.S. West Asia order, where that ghastly death cult with its pathetic intolerant God will be strategically wallowing in the mire, its deterrence in tatters, consumed with paranoia while fighting multiple instance of asymmetrical pressure.
