Monitoring the situation in Iran

I heard that same is true for UK and you have to convert to Islam to survive. They are dominating prisons.

Anyway, looks like NY is cooked as well


UK Islam prison population is 18% and 27% for London.

Muslims are allegedly 6.5% of the pop that's not including the estimated 1 million illegals.

6.5 pop disproportionately represent a huge prison population . And yeah they now control the prisons.
 
If Iran is either unable to score a single hit with a missile or drone for a week or unable to hit a ship for a week you can say their capabilities are sufficiently degraded.

You make a random metric on the spot to try and dismiss Iran military is degraded, if some bumfuck riding an horse shoots a rocket then their military "isn't sufficently degraded". Perhaps you wanted Trump to drop a nuke on them to achieve total degradation.

Where are the Iranian freedom fighters in all this? Were the riots just a mirage? You'd think the common folk would take the opportunity to force regime change especially since they now have the big guns backing them. If they do not capitalize on this chance they are cowards.
I think we in the West, epsecially America, have fallen for our own mythology of heroic George Washington and his band of merry founding fathers leading a grassroots rebellion against tyranny, but forget that England was a loooooong way from America and we had some pretty big help from some of Englands deadliest enemies. So the notion that local Iranian common folk will rise up with just a little nudging by America is perhaps a bit optimistic.

Sadly, I suspect we will write some new treaties, walk away cheering success, Iran will take a few years to consolidate, kill a few million malcontents, and return to their old ways, and we will be back at it by 2030.
 


Posting this when we have seen the FBI unrionically covering up and reacting documents laying out the communications and facilitation of a large pedophile ring made up of powerful people and leaders in both the US; UK, Middle East and other nations is pretty quaint.

Still not a single person has even been arrested in the US by the way.

We have never been in "good times". That was just the image the rich and powerful were selling you.

Well one has lots of victims and multiple group of men that was covered up due to political correctness.

The other is just a figment of your imagination based on guilt by association.

WTF. Both of those things are evil and abhorrent.

You only defend Epstein friends because insert your favorite politician here is involved.

Biggest and lengthiest battle of the revolution wasn't even fought in North America, it was the near 4 year siege of Gibraltar.

Distance and speed of communication played towards our advantage against the British. We were able to slow walk our way towards a unified front across the colonies while waiting for the King to respond to our grievances. It is quite the opposite for the Iranian people. They have no advantage against the regime and don't appear to have any "formal" resistance structure or link to the West. At least none left after the mass killings earlier this year.
 
Going to call it now - DJT fucked up, miscalculated the Iranian population like Putin did the Ukrainian population, but unlike Putin who collected 10T worth of minerals, he will be left with a dick in his hand.

There was probably a one week window where this could have been pulled off and they blew it.

Cuba will provide some fire cover for the biggest taco feast ever, so folding the Iran adventure will coincide with a "deal" with them. Very real possibility of this fucking their midterms.

That's my prediction at this point from my discussions with finance bros.

It does seem very naive thinking about it.

You can utterly loathe a vile and repressive government and still hate seeing your country get flattened by foreign bombs.

You think those regions were stable before Europeans conquered them? They were constantly fighting themselves and invading Europe for ~1000 years.

USA had problems with Muslims since country appeared on map, first USA war was with Barbary pirates

The ghost of Anthony Eden is crying out at that gentlemans post.

Britain and France were literally forced out of the region by Eisenhower and threatened with economic annihilation.

Looking from modern lenses. I don't think letting ME people to rule themselves was the smartest thing to do (especially with their "awesome" religion)...

I always wondered how SovCits and Flatearthers came to be.

Now I know.

The guy who was implicated in his own files is dead. His supplier/girlfriend is in prison.

99% of the Epstein File Smooth brains can't even link to a crime or explain what crime took place.

majority of them don't even understand the difference between evidence and proof.

OR this investigation was shut down because half of the people in current administration are in those files. Democrats also never wanted to pursue it further because their people were in it as well, and of course all those that pump money for their political campaigns (for both parties) can't be touched.

Are you this naive to believe anything this administration have to say about Epstein files and people connected to him? They lied multiple times about those files before they released them.
 
We have never been in "good times". That was just the image the rich and powerful were selling you.

Comparatively, over say the last 200 years, they absolutely have been the softest, easiest of times.

There is no room for argument on this if you know anything about history.

See what I mean? Guilt by Association. There's 6 million pages of documents. I somehow doubt you or any of the Epstein mob read them in their entirety.
Most people can't even read a short young adult novel these days let a lone mountains of the most boring everyday correspondence that goes nowhere.

I focused on and read about certain individuals and compare them to the online narratives and conclusions of what people were saying.

Almost everyone "connected" to him involved them sticking their hand out for money/donations/funding and or favors as he was trying to buy his way back after his first conviction.
Purely transactional mutual opportunism. Just rich people networks doing what they have been doing for ages.

But most of the nitwits in the mob think being socially adjacent to a predator is the same as being complicit in their crimes.
Can you accuse them of being socially amoral? Sure.
But being amoral is not a crime.

Like Bannon, everything I read in the files about him points to him just being completely amoral and wanting Epstein's money for his own political gain.

Epstein saw him as someone who could fix his PR problem after his first conviction and not a target for blackmail leverage.
Zero evidence that he dipped his hand into the cookie jar or an attempt to honeypot him.

So my conclusion is

Every powerful nation of a few at the top and their far less well off subjects have claimed good times. Usually, their preview was limited. Sometimes, it was straight up obsfuscated by design.

Because 'good times' have always only ever existed for some people, while other people writhed in suffering. Sometimes at the hands of those comfortable people, sometimes not.

Those unnamed children beign flown on private jets into an island, no one knowing their name, no one knowing their location but those who wished to do them harm, certainly weren't experienced soft and easy times. Those rich and powerful people gleefully taking part had it pretty easy though.

And they still do. They're still under protection. You can freely post a tweet about some random Arabic rapist, we know his name, orign, everything about him. but billionaire pedophile names get blacked out and hidden and many will remain so.

Open your eyes.
 
This is my concern. There was never any doubt the US could take their military capability out, but without boots on the ground, the thugs and co can just hide it out.
I'm hearing boots will be on the ground, but there is no time table or anything substantial. It is probably going to be something very focused if anything. If they don't do boots, then it's just going to be air strikes until the place resembles Gaza, I guess. (My bad at work and for some reason my phone killed off a part of my post)

I went on a recent dive and a lot of the people that were corresponding with Epstein were academics. For think tank events, intellectual "work shops" on the island and lavish dinners to discuss politics, funding research and straight up partying.
Politicians, Intellectuals, movie stars, economists, lawyers, athletes… the list goes on.

I wish this turned into a wider conflict against Islam. The world needs a reset and it would also present an opportunity for us to deal with our traitor enemies at home.
