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

You are making stuff up again or having a compression problem.

I explained, Iran has preferred closer relationship with India over Pakistan because India has a degree of geopolitical autonomy that Pakistan does not. E.g. India bought Iranian and Russian oil and invested in Iran.

Both are part of the Judeo Christian world order. So, again it proves my point about Iran not having a problem dealing with it.

However, it does have a problem with the ones that warmonger for the Judeo Christians.

Try to understand the clear distinction between the two!

Because that is Iran’s red line.

No, I don’t have a compression or expansion problem.

India does not have enough geopolitical autonomy, which is why India completely halted oil imports from Iran after the U.S. withdrew from the nuclear deal and terminated exemptions for buyers in May 2019.

India is Israel's single largest customer for military exports, accounting for roughly 37% of Israel's total arms exports.

By succumbing to US pressure on Iran, and supporting Iran’s existential enemy (Israel); one can argue that India is warmongering for the Judeo Christians against Iran.

If you want to try to badmouth Pakistan by highlighting India, you are at a loss my friend.

Well, a simple Google search would easily give you enough sources, but let's hear it directly from a Pakistani professor:

More than meets the smile: Iran–Pakistan’s strategic chessboard

If you ever want to know what two countries really care about, don’t listen to the speeches. Watch what words they never quite say alone. In the case of Iran and Pakistan, one word keeps showing up…

Iran’s position is straightforward, and it has been repeated in various forms for decades: stay out of our fights with the US and Israel, keep American and allied military activity off your soil, and don’t let your territory be used for subversive operations against us.

This is not an abstract concern. Tehran remembers very clearly how Washington, particularly in the 2000s, used Pakistan’s Balochistan province as a launchpad for anti-Iranian operations. These included support for Iranian Baloch separatists, covert backing of the Mojahedin-e Khalq (MEK), and other militant outfits eager to cause trouble inside Iran.

The irony, of course, is that some of these same networks later turned their sights on Pakistan itself. After 9/11, as the US military footprint in Afghanistan expanded, Baloch separatists and other armed groups became useful tools not just for pressuring Iran, but also for destabilizing Pakistan when Washington wanted to exert leverage.

Iran has long been aware of the double game. And while Tehran is pragmatic enough to maintain relations with Islamabad even under pro-US leadership, it also has red lines. As one senior Iranian official reportedly told Pakistani counterparts during the recent delegation visit:

“We want a very good relationship with Pakistan. But if Pakistan restarts cooperation with the US in subversive activities from Balochistan, Iran will make Balochistan a nightmare for Pakistan.”

When you now say this all happened against the will of Pakistani leadership, ok, then everything what India does on Iranian soil is also against the will of the Iranian leadership.



Nobody denies that.







I gave you articles from Pakistani experts.
And your evidence is killings of Iranian leaders. Why should Israel kill Pakistani leaders

Brent crude was ~$60-70 a year ago and just before the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran

That’s a massive 50-75% increase

No riots in western cities though. There is no pressure on Trump whatsoever. He still does as he pleases.

I don't think the assumption on the part of the Iranians was ever that there would be riots in Western cities. It was more that ordinary people would no longer be insulated from the consequences of the war, and that they'd have a material interest in ending the war. A 'skin in the game' sort of thing.

Just one small example: people in rural England are struggling heat up their homes because of the rise in the wholesale price of oil. These are houses without normal central heating. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cqgm09xvlvjeo
