Iran - Israel/US War: Israel-US declare war on Iran, Iran responds

VCheng said:
Both sides of the Gulf expect to be able to hold on to their deep differences, but the realization must sink in that neither side can hope to assume uncontested leadership of the whole religious spectrum and have peace at the same time.

ALL sides must give up their dreams of such supremacy and learn to co-exist, without proxies and without preaching hatred for the other. That is a tall order indeed.

(And yes, it includes Israel too.)

There will never be peace in the Middle East as long as the Palestinian question is left untouched.

Easter weekend is coming, and Markets tend to be closed/quiet over this weekend with various bank holidays/closed markets across some of the financial markets.

Could we see the land invasion start over Easter Weekend ?!

If the land invasion is coming it will be this weekend, especially since we are reaching Trump’s April 6th deadline. He cannot kick the can again as he already has 3 times.

Just the beginning.

Once the $119 manipulation wall breaks we could quickly see a rise to $150 to test the 2008 highs.

Any ground invasion or large scale attempt to seize Iranian energy would likely have severe repercussions with Saudi oil pipelines and terminals being hit and taking off the remaining 6-7MBPD and cementing a global energy meltdown

It wasn’t a wave per se, but there was a pretty large explosion at 18:01:13 Israeli time - possibly near Tel Aviv.

Not from Iran — could be an Iranian drone, but I doubt it. But Israel has never publicized any Iranian drones making impact. Plus I would imagine Jordan and ISralei Air Force are actively hunting these drones.
 
Both the US and Israel need a "big bad Iran" to continue in order to maintain the extremely profitable and leverageable strategy of tension in that exact spot of the world. A peaceful, prosperous democratic Iran serves zero US (deep) purpose.

Well, add the GCC to that list as well. Peace is deadly for arms manufacturers, militaries, armed groups, extremist ideologies, dictators.
