Monitoring the situation in Iran

Because Ghalibaf is a technocrat neo-principlist aka he is ideologically aligned with ayatollah but less of a hawk. Larijani for example was a hawk. I think the big wildcard is the people's protest. Ghalibaf being aligned with IRGC and such, will not make him that popular among people who were protesting but I doubt he is as hated as old leadership was.

Especially considering that Pahlavi is becoming increasingly similar to European "strong worded letter" Union. Together with CIA losing interest in kurdish rebellion (probably due to Turkey), there might be something interestying. But at the same time somebody might kill Ghalibaf - foreign agents or hardliners. And then the calculus will change. It is also possible nothing is going to work out too.

I thought this was fake at first "I am please", "witch" but I'm guessing it's real but rushed maybe to prop up the markets?
I'd assume it was fake if it didn't have typos in it lol
 
People are so short minded, they will be voting for more of the same if they vote against the current party. They all spend like no tomorrow but at least the Republicans pretend they are fiscally sound. Prices will rise regardless of who is in office.
I wish all the Democrats would vote Green and all the Republicans would vote Libertarian.
 
"Tomorrow morning, sometime their time, we were expecting to blow up their largest electric generating plants that cost over $10bn (£7.5bn) to build," he says.

"It was a very good one, there was no dearth of money. One shot it is gone. It collapses. Why would they want that?

"So they called, I didn't call. They called. They want to make a deal," [President] Trump says.

"And we are very willing to make a deal. It's got to be a good deal, and it's got to be no more wars, no more nuclear weapons.

"They're not going to have nuclear weapons anymore. They're agreeing to that. Any of that stuff, there is no deal," he adds.

They must've prepared reading The Art of the Deal...hopefully Trump ready for that

If Ghalibaf is involved, this makes things interesting.

If Ghalibaf is involved without the IRGC involvement, Ghalibaf ain't going to be involved for long. I would like to know what's the role of the Artesh in all of this. The Iranian Regular army could play a interesting role in all of this.

I doubt Artesh is going to be involved at all unless the regions rebel. And even then I doubt.

I've seen so much about the F35 and so much of it is terrible misinformed about how these machines work/function.

Most people don't know shit.
 
Though expensive initially going full off grid solar years ago was a great investment

Plus mainly driving EVs it also charges our vehicles (as we watch gas prices spike)
I was talking to a guy yesterday who got an electric car based on his friend telling him he saved so much on gas, he said his electric bill jumped up $400 lol. Not sure if he was lying or not, I know it cost me $150 to fill up my truck yesterday but I live in CA so gas is higher here than most other places anyway.

I would assume all depends on which state and the cost of electricity in that state like California is pretty expensive and how much they drive

I know back home in Indiana when my son switched to a Tesla his app shows he pays around $10 of extra electricity for 300 miles of range when charging at home


With some of the strictest gun laws in the country, guess criminals don't care about laws

The fuel cost doesn't just vanish, it transfers, so of course home electric goes up but unless you have some terrible tier pricing it will be way less than gas. Tesla app shows you your savings when you put the cost per kWh in.
 
I doubt Artesh is going to be involved at all unless the regions rebel. And even then I doubt.

They were always a second rate force, behind the IRGC, when suffered mass purges when the revolution occurred.
But I still can't find credible information on how loyal they are to the regime right now.
