Interest or privilege?Still, its not good. Charging toll tax by Iran from nature made Strait is not in intrest of Pak.
Might is right (at least in the current world order),so what Iran is doing with the SOH is actually fine and right.Tommorow, if relation with Iran goes bad then Iran will start charging toll tax from Pak. Strait of Hormuz is not man made, not entirely owned by Iran as Oman is there too. Basically Iran is charging ghunda tax or bhatta from others.
If they want to make more enemies they can go ahead. The quagmire will only get worse for them.
I suppose these are pre-existing arrangements, that continued during the war, the prince makes the distinction that the Saudis did not become active themselves.I am skeptical of this article by Prince Turki. Seems their original plan to defang Iran using the Americans/Israelis failed and they have moved on to Plan B. The Saudis, like the rest of the GCC, host American bases, provide logistical support, share radar and intelligence data and airspace with the US and fund American campaigns all over the region and in Africa. They are no innocent lambs.
This is typical Saudi behavior: let others do the heavy lifting even though they have the means, but not the ability to defend themselves. Pathetic.I am skeptical of this article by Prince Turki.

Oh please. Prince Sultan airbase is from where ALL American air campaigns since the 1991 Persian Gulf war have been staged and directed, including this attack on Iran. If Saudis didnt want this war they could have denied their airspace and the use of Prince Sultan airbase. Entire GCC was on board with this war.I suppose these are pre-existing arrangements, that continued during the war, the prince makes the distinction that the Saudis did not become active themselves.
Remove credit and the dollar power and you find so quicky that most Americans don't have more money than the average Romanian. Russians will come ou wealthier than them.Of course, gotta spend that loot somewhere while the world gets by on scraps.
Your opinions on Iran make me know you are not actually loyal to Iran (you could even be some type of agent of a foreign country)and you are an undercover shahi who loves Pahlavi. If Iran trusted you, Iran would be taken over by US and Israel so quickly.How do you know these are the protestors and not plain-clothed forces?
Both videos appear to be plain-clothed forces shooting at the protestors, not the other way around.
Israel has a fan club here. they have an official Hasbara team working diligently.Your opinions on Iran make me know you are not actually loyal to Iran (you could even be some type of agent of a foreign country)and you are an undercover shahi who loves Pahlavi.

If you understand American football, Trump is sitting on 2nd and 20. For all practical purpose he can’t wait to get to 3rd and 30.Yes but the bigger issue for Trump is how to get something better looking for him which would not involve dozens or even hundreds or even thousands of body bags coming home to America. That would destroy Trump and his supine Republican stooges in the Congress.
I think at this point, I don't rule out an offramp based on the ongoing diplomacy. The other options could be:
1) Two more weeks of intense attacks to further degrade Iran; that's Netanyahu's Minimal Viable Product (MVP), to use a business term.
2) A staged tit for tat like what happened at the end of the June 2025 conflict.
Both of them would allow Americans to declare 'victory' and leave but both would eventually be an Iranian 'victory' and the Israelis know that though the Israelis would take option #1 as best. But option #1 would risk significant American casualties and #2 is something Iranians might not agree with--though they should as long as the Americans leave!
