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

[ChineseTiger1986]

Pahlavists makes all Iranians across the globe ashamed

The first thing people say when telling you are Iranian is do you support US bombing of Iran and do you hate islam do you side with Israel

I don't know how such people can exist and why it only affected Iranian diaspora, Pakistan or Russia/China doesn't have that kind of diaspora at such a widespread level and such a high level of treason as to suggest that their country should be nuked to be freed

We do have some Chinese-Americans who want the US to wipe out China from the map.

They are worse and even more traitorous than the Pahalavists.

Around 6 million terrorists want a lesser terrorist to lead this terrorist state….

Or a bigger one, that whole society is made up of sick psycho demons who literally get off on pictures of dead palestinian children...

That's....literally not how any of that works.

Muricans are bad in geography we knew all along

Trump and GOP had vehemently condemned Obama and the JCPOA because it released about $1 billion in funds to Iran. Now they are talking $20 billion.

Trump Planning Jaw-Dropping Payment to Country He Bombed

The president, who has slammed Barack Obama for unfreezing Iranian assets as part of a nuclear deal, is weighing a de facto $20 billion payment to Iran of his own.

China and US trade is about $660 billion. China and Russia trade is about $ 220 billion. One is China's strategic partner while the other is China's adversary. Is this example obvious telling something ?

Iran's true geopolitical partner is India? lol.

India-Iran bilateral trade during the FY 2022-23 was $2.33 billion

In 2024, the trade volume between China and Iran reached USD 13.37 billion

On the contrary, the oil/diesel flowing from Iran into Pakistan via non-official means is into 10s of billions yearly if not monthly.

China is the ultimate target but lucky for China the Zionists do not have the foresight like the Anglo-Saxons do. And even luckier for China this time there is no Imperial Japan to bog down China, and vice versa, if a hot war breaks out between the USA and China, and never say never because Europeans once did wage a war on China in the past and they increasingly need and want that modern Chinese silver piles.

The fault clearly lies with Iran for not going all the way for nukes come hell or high water. China already knows it is a target and "they" have tried almost everything against China except a hot war. So even if China helps Iran, it will scold Iran for exposing that help.

Covid-19 was biological warfare against China and it shook the Chinese planners to their core. It reminded them again of the Century of Humiliation so the Chinese are ultra careful when it comes to everything now, and especially when it comes to the wishy-washy-and-at-times-treacherous-regime in Iran.

Just look at how Iran thought they could pretend to look the other way while letting India run wild and free in their border areas.

China is ultra vigilant now so don't expect them to guard you while you yourslef are asleep.

Absolutely, some of the most beautiful and impactful words spoken by a MAGA: Steve Bannon, whom a close MAGA lady friend introduced me to leading to the 2020 elections, and Steve is clear on where the American interests are. BTW, the MAGA friend was over at my house last night visiting my wife; the friend has turned so pro Israel (Christian Evangelical) that she uses 'Shabbat'! I would love to ask her about what she thinks of what Steve Bannon says about her darling Israel but... it will ruin the friendship.
Here is Steve! Love it. LOOOOOOOVE IT!

In fact, before the outbreak of the war, Iran's true geopolitical partners were Russia and India. What assistance did Russia and India provide to Iran after the outbreak of the war?

But there are still many Iranians who do not blame Iran and Russia, but blame China for not doing enough, and even call China "backstabbing"!

The relationship between China and Iran is mainly focused on the economic field, and Iran's true geopolitical partners are Russia and India, not China! Considering the limited political and military relationship between China and Iran, China has already done enough for Iran. If the political relationship between Iran and China is as close as that between North Korea, Pakistan, Kazakhstan, and other countries, China should indeed provide open and clear political and military support, but the relationship between Iran and China is not as close.

China should not be blamed by the Iranians, it is unfair. You should blame Russia and India. China is helping you beyond the standards of diplomatic relations, yet you keep accusing China. fk!

Geopolitics is a geometry of power, interest, necessity, brotherhood of common values, cultural roots, intrinsic collective motivations of societies — a calculus in which every state calculates its own advantage and acts accordingly. Iran has, for decades, pursued a foreign policy of strategic defiance, building relationships of convenience with powers that have their own agendas and their own limits. Russia is fighting its own war in Ukraine; India is pursuing its own relationship with Israel and America;

None of these powers is Iran’s “true partner” in any meaningful sense — because true partnership requires mutual vulnerability, and none of these states is vulnerable in the same way Iran is.

That number was from 2024. In 2025, China and US trade was estimated between $414 B to $560 B, I checked online. Russia has been China's strategic partner and US has been China's adversary for some years now, before, the trade with China was even more in favor of China-US trade.

From 2024 to 2025, the total import-export figure was dropping in free fall.

So China will very soon decouple from the US at this rate.

Americans would trust Iran's foreign minister words more than their own president. Shameful but true.

Iran has clearly surrendered. Israel has declared it will continue bombing in defiance of the ceasefire, and the US naval blockade continues. Under these circumstances, only Iran has unilaterally opened the SOH and is about to abandon uranium enrichment. This is an unconditional surrender, and unfortunately for Mojtaba, the same fate as his father awaits him. The reformist coup d'état has been completed.

The hidden story behind Pakistan's army being sent to Saudi Arabia has come to light. Pakistan's army was not deployed against Iran but against a third country, and this happened with Iran's consent. When a deadlock arose in US-Iran relations, news surfaced that Pakistan's army had arrived in Saudi Arabia.

Certain circles sent a message to the US that if Pakistan's mediation did not succeed, the war could spread, and Pakistan knows that behind most attacks in Saudi Arabia, it was not Iran but that third country. And if Pakistan also got involved in this war, the survival of that third country would be at risk.

During this time, Turkey's Erdogan also began threatening that third country with war. The root of this entire chaos was that same third country, which was carrying out military operations in Lebanon.

Iran did not raise any objection even once to the presence of the Pakistani army in Saudi Arabia, but from that third country's government to ordinary people, everyone appeared distressed. And this became the reason that the third country told the US that it was ready to back away from the war. In response, the US gave Pakistan the green signal, and Pakistan brought Iran and Saudi Arabia on board. And thus, a long ceasefire is about to take place.
