Iranian Foreign & Resistance Front Strategy & Operations

Immortals said:
Communism failed against capitalism, plain and simple. The reforms came too late where as China reformed much earlier to a hybrid capitalistic model.

The state cannot be relied on to solely effectively allocate resources of economy/society. Without private markets and financial incentive to citizens you get economic stagnation and rampant corruption. Elites in Soviet Union were becoming extremely wealthy while the average worker starved and had no economic income mobility.

It is one reason why Iran suffers so much, while overall Iran is a socialist economy, the sanctions busting regime is in effect a derivative form of communism where key government players supply the market with the necessary goods to keep society functioning. While noble on the surface these leads to corruption and inefficiencies (see Babak Zanjani oil scandal as an example)

The issue is when you build your entire system on ideology (Communism, Facism, Populism, Theocracy) then as generations pass naturally society evolves and moderates and thinking changes. Thus at the end of the day the inner workings of your society and economy needs to be grounded in sound reasoning or else you collapse fairly quickly once the ideological flame burns out.

But make no mistake, ideology cannot replace a strong market oriented economy. It can merely mask the efficiencies for a period of time.

The end road of a dead ideology with no economic basis is right in front of your eyes: North Korea and Cuba.

Good analysis. More people here need to apply it to the last type of ruling dispensations - theocracies.

I don’t care what religion you represent, if you apply it to running a state, you will get neither a popular religion nor even a remotely efficient state.

And as for the economy, you will get businessmen where your priests should be, and priests masquerading as businessmen.
 
Post WW2 Soviets were fed extremely well.
It is just boring, queuing, long waiting lists for big appliances.

Yes Israel will be secured by Turkish pressure/puppetry with HTS. NATO has interest in keeping Israel strong, Turkey is part of NATO

Hitler also worked with Stalin until he backstabbed him. These men are less honorable than them. Give it time. Things will occur quickly given how much fluidity of the region. The Iranians really need to use their brains this time and hamas developed close ties with HTS. As long as Sunnis are under the thumb of the Jews, things will put pressure now on Sunni Sham to come to the aid of their fellow brethren.

Turkey-Israel Trade (2023)​

In 2023, the trade volume between Turkey and Israel was approximately $6.8 billion. Turkey's exports to Israel accounted for $5.4 billion, including goods like steel, automotive products, chemicals, and textiles. Israel's exports to Turkey were valued at $1.5 billion, mainly in quarrying, machinery, and metals

Azerbaijan-Israel Trade (2023)
The trade volume between Azerbaijan and Israel reached about $1.7 billion in 2023. The relationship is driven by Azerbaijan’s export of oil to Israel, which makes up a substantial portion of their trade.

I think for these reasons Turkey has interest to keep Israel well and strong, hence their efforts to save Israel.

Here we go. Another new poster with no perspective and no sense of Literature either. Only religion.

Who thinks that by challenging someone mindlessly will give them forum points

Not worth my time talking to you. Bye now.

Forget about Iran, KSA and American approval in same sentence...

This ongoing relations Iran-KSA are results of Chinese prepared deal...no precedent till now..

unlike China, America doesn't need Saudis resources, also new moment....

first military exercise of Iran and KSA, of course, shocking precedent...

Nothing less shocking precedent is canceling of some military deals that KSA signed with usa, pilar of geopolitical stability of ksa till now...

In the west Asia at least, Americans are no more solo omnipotent power...

Eventual closer relationship with Saudis for Iran could be one of the three most important decisions in past half century...I can't say which ones are other two, but this would be on the top list anyway... ;)

Don’t be naive.

World relives around Dollar and Euro, not the Yuan.

Saudi Arabia is fully infiltrated by CIA/Mossad. The second the House of Saud goes against US, MBS is done. Sanctions on SA would decimate the country and ruling stability of the monarchy. Saudi Arabia society is not used to hardships or having to work. It’s a welfare society maintained and built by slaves and international advisors.

No...just the equivalent. Ergo, 'nuclear' attacks no longer carry the taboo in any shape or form they (somewhat) used to. Actually pretty normalized nowadays IMO.
