You can´t extrapolate so easily.Iran wants to gently push the west to accepting Iranian power. That has never happened in the history of conflict. America took power from England via multiple wars. Not by gently convincing the king to let America be independent. China took control of its country from western meddling by fighting in Korea and losing many troops. Not by Mao sending fake threats to Nixon.
Qatar is a baby-land. Defence pacts do not prevent their demise if they cross our red lines, it's just a coping mechanism because the regional power balance has changed. Qatar is just a gas station to be hit and obliterated. NATO arm/US lackey can't save them when US could not/can't.Yes, you need to play the madman. The IR will never do that because the oligarchs inside Iran have too much wealth in the Emirates, Europe and North America.
And Iran cannot play the madman without nuclear deterrence.
Indeed. The problem is that Iran had a window of opportunity to do that in the early years of the 21st century while the US was in a quagmire in Iraq and Afghanistan and Iran decided to waste all those years and eventually surrendered to the US and Europe by signing the JCPOA.
That's what I think too. The oligarchs would profit from the blockade for sure. They will earn hundreds of billions of dollars, turning Iran into a failed state.
Soleimani wasn't the person who said no to nuclear weapons and ICBMs. He expanded Iran's regional influence as much as he could. He was a victim of Khamenei's idiotic policies, not the source of the problem.
Meanwhile, on a side note, Turkey signed a defense pact with Qatar today. The entire region is uniting against Iran one by one.
Cant take you seriously after your comment
America has bombed bridges and railways and roads in Iran connected to Pakistan already. And are you going to enlist as a Pakistani truck driver then! Run the gauntlet !
Pakistan it self at a very delicate situation internally and externally, I think so far they are managing it well.
Are u happy now?![]()
If Iran is in so much trouble which it is in no doubt but to the extent that some say. Why are there no major defections and instability in the country like revolutionary protests etc. How do the government keep running like nothing happens if they can't generate any income.This is before revisions, so I wouldn’t run around declaring an advantage,
Arabs have been sending oil thru the strait for months and making tens of billions of dollars while Iran has made $0
This government refuses to stand up for their own rights. Pathetic display of weakness to your enemy.
You are cut off from reality and poverty on the streets … meaning you live in DHA…
Iranians could supply us ALL of our energy needs …. Oil, gas, LPG for less than half the cost compared to crooked corrupt Arabs …. But we instead buy super expensive energy supplies …. On borrowed money which we pay high interest on …. And they treat us like shit ….
On the other hand Americans send us a text message asking us to shut border crossings down …. LPG prices triple for the poor and what did we get in exchange ????
Let me know a dollar Americans paid us to compensate for billions of our losses and burden on the poor …
We are always willing to rent our army and let our young men die just so that the generals can swim in palm beach resorts with their families …
Idiots bastard Munir and his followers…
