Iran Crisis & the 2026 War between Iran and the United States, Gulf States, and Israel - Please focus on news and coverage, not argumentation.

It is impressive that botting /pol during the Russian invasion of Ukraine was able to so thoroughally cripple the American Right with anti-nationalist anti-imperialist pacifistic third-worldism.

True, but let's not forget that the American Left were baying for US boots on the ground and Blood for the Blood God in Ukraine so they could virtue-signal as the #Resistance against that homophobic fascist meanie Putler (which would mean getting in a hot shooting war with a nuclear power).

While chickenhawks like Vindman were stuffing their faces and demanding everyone else fight the war for them, Righties who'd actually seen combat during GWOT spoke up and said "hold up, you're about to start WW3."

What really turned the American Right against Ukraine was Biden going over there to slobber Zelensky's knob and his entire admin ignoring a small town in Ohio that was choking on chemical fumes.

It wasn't Russian propaganda that caused that realignment. It was because the Ukraine Project is the epitome of Globohomo Clown World and its misplaced priorities.

Something I find baffling, fucking North Korea managed a MAD deterrence strategy better than Iran did. Even before they had a nuke.

When you have high thousands of artillery pieces aimed at the densely populated South Korean capital, you don't need nukes to be considered too prickily to eat.

I seem to remember something about Zoroastrianism not allowing for converts, either. That would make a small family trend a pretty big deal.

I think that's just the Indian Parsis. The actual believers in Iran might reconsider their stance now that they don't face the death penalty for getting people to leave Islam.

if Iran ends up with some sort of liberal tolerant government, the population will be divide into muslims, chistrians, zoros and onlyfans content creators, which will be fantastic for Iran because, as we all know, thats the kind of diversity which brings a nation together.

Thank God/G-d/Ahura Mazda for cheap laser hair removal.

Question to Christians, and it probably is unrelated to the conversions, but does Iran/Persia have any mention in the New Testament outside of the story of Purim?

Its speculated that the magi or three kings were Persian Zoroastrians.

This is very obviously a different scenario than the Gwot.

The major difference is instead of being guided by neoconservative thinking, this war is being guided "neo-neoconservative" thinking.

once Persia is nothing more than a smoldering crater which middle east country do you think will suddenly be a super big threat to the US and needs to be bombed immediately before they get their hands WMDs? I'm thinking Lebanon is looking mighty shifty, my friend Mr. Shlomostein says they actually hate Iowa more than they do Israel so we should probably just turn them to glass.

LOL

Could a Parsis marry an Iranian Zoroastrian and still be considered/ have their kids considered Zoroastrians? I know some Jewish groups have similar insular bullshit (the Mashad comes to mind, and the Syrian Jews tend to act this way), but no Jew would say they aren't jews. And they don't deny the Jewishness of other jews (it's more of a "we know we are safe because it is our group" sorta stuff-the other jews in this thread could talk about it more).

Thomas the Apostle preached there before going to Ind*a, but besides the Three Kings being from there I don't believe so.

Why did he go to Ind*a? We all know it is the land that God forgot.

My point was Iran isn't winning this, so may as well try to hit their nukes, and see how it plays out. Probably wouldn't work, but fuck it.

 

[Drip Torch]

stud, how many times have you made this post today? we get it.

Cant stop watching. When you see those Patriots in the Qatari wild, these videos are what goes through your head and now its real, in high quality.

The Bolivarian Rubio memes are some of my favorites. In many ways, I prefer him to Vance.

Post Neoconservatism or as I like to call it, Novoneo-Conservatism.

St. Peter wrote that God "desires all people to be saved".

It might not work out that way, but it's worth a shot.

Real talk.

We are not trying to STEAL the Oil. We are trying to prevent CHINA from stealing the oil. In the last two months, the USA has just fucked over 20% of the sources of oil for the Chinese. 7% came from Venezuela, and 13% came from Iran. China also bought that oil at reduced rates too boot in exchange for propping up the regimes in both countries.

The USA has known for some time now that China wants to set up for another Pacific War. The Trump Administration is trying to avoid this outcome. And its doing so not by confronting China directly, but by attacking China's network of influence and supply globally. The attacks on Venezuela and now Iran are key components of this strategy.

tl;dr, its not "Da Jews".

Sensible take and one I hope is true so ultimately those chink faggots keep their dehumanizing industrial bullshit across the pacific where it belongs.

Jesus instructed him to go to "the ends of the earth", Thomas realized He meant the asshole of the earth and accepted his task

 

[Burnt Fish]

Trump painted himself into a situation that will end with his resignation,coup,or assassination

between fanfictions like this and some of the shit I've seen you write in the vtuber thread I genuinely think you need to be on medication for your delusions

I just like to play pretend though, as Westfront said its an escape for real world problems, like i imagine Kiara wearing a ball gown like some Austrian Noblewoman and im the Habsburg Prince who just grabs her and then marries her

I assume they mean Israel's nukes, though I'm pretty sure those things are in extra resilient silos.

1) The Magi that visited during the birth of Jesus were Persian mystics
2) They're part of the peoples listed as being in Jerusalem during the Pentecost
3) Thomas the Apostle might have spent time there on his way to India
