It will take ages to recover. Main goal I think for Iran is to try to make it so that no one will want to invade or bomb again. Which is probably why they are also trying to hurt the global economy with the straits and the bombing of Qatar gas field. As hits to economy will generally hit USA harder then attacks on their military bases/allies. To be fair to them, I think Iran are achieving that, I think all hopes about changing Iranian regime seem gone now. USA are already regretting this war, the hit to the global economy and markets isn’t worth it for them.

It’s like a trade off for Iran. Making the best of a bad situation. Keep getting damage now to Iran potentially buys you more years in safety to rebuild.

Think the Iranian people massively miss out. No regime change. And this damage and worsening of ties with other countries especially Arab, is going to make the people poorer. They’ve gained nothing from this.
 
Saudi Arabia has urged the US to ramp up attacks on Iran, a Saudi intelligence source has confirmed, while it is weighing a decision on whether to join the fight directly.

Thats the picture of present Bangladesh and Pakistan. We are getting P&G which is supplied from Bombay High.

Regarding LPG, Argentina already started providing shortfall of LPG. Also Iran already cleared Indian ships/tankers /vessels to sail thru Hormuz

Speak about your country where patrol is 400 rupees per liter though it will not affect your country as most peoples preferred to travel on donkey

Indeed. As we have already discussed, it would surprise no one if non-Muslims were once again to keep up their 100% record of using nukes to obliterate entire populations. It is deeply ingrained in their value system.

But that fatboy is coming due to adamant and jihadi behavior of Muslim country i.e.Iran

Saudi Arabia and UAE dislike Iran. I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re pretty happy with these attacks on Iran secretly. Especially Saudi Arabia, seen how the prince speaks about the regime in Iran. He even said if Iran gets a nuclear bomb Saudi has to get one and has described the previous Iranian leader as hitler of the Middle East.

Qatar was basically the only gulf nation on good terms but with that recent attack on their gas fields that might not be the case anymore.

Iran might have striked the Qatar gas field due to proximity, but it’s probably the only nation they could attack out of the gulf nations that wouldn’t have escalated the war. They’re just banking on Qatar eventually forgiving them and not wanting to escalate it themselves.

But UAE and Saudi Arabia aren’t fond of Qatar too. So they probably didn’t mind that much when Iran bombed Qatar.

I feel that uae and Saudi are publicly not in favour of this war against a fellow Muslim country, yet secretly pleased what Israel is doing. A weaker Iran (and even Qatar) is good for them.

Vance career as a politician will be over after this term unless current MAGA is successful in rigging next elections by utilizing ICE.

To be fair, Vance is not afraid to make tough decisions. This is the guy who happily threw his Hindu wife under the bus to keep his MAGA support base onside.
 
Vance was a candidate chosen to not threaten Trump. Make him look good.

However I think Vance has kept a low profile, looked fairly dignified in front of the camera not tried to step on too many toes. I think he will likely be the next republican candidate. The Trump MAGA supporters are likely to transfer to him, especially given republican candidates that competed with Trump and will compete tend to share a bit different views to Trump. Vance will position himself as carrying out trump’s legacy. It’s a bit unfair in a way as there’s no way Vance would have a shot of president if he wasn’t given the vice presidency.

I think after these tariffs and Iran war there’s no way republicans win again anyway. So we’ll see democrats voted in. But I do think Vance will be the republican candidate.

When Vance loses I think the republicans will try desperately to get a new non MAGA guy as new republican candidate which is more in line with traditional republican politics. They tried to install one instead of Trump running again for second term it just didn’t work Trump was too popular with the general public. Hopefully there isn’t some Trump v2 whipping the crowd into a frenzy in the same way Trump has done before.

Maybe, and decent idea of them to be proactive but typically when a republican goes blood lusting for war the next president is usually a democrat out of mental burnout and because both party’s voters do not want dumb wars. They wouldn’t want the next guy to just continue where the previous left off.

It’s cyclical. Rn US voters will be at Bush II second term mentally I’d assume and vote for a democrat.

Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps IRGC-affiliated Tasnim News Agency published an article saying Iran should withdraw from the NPT as soon as possible . Yeah , with statements like these , they are making their intentions pretty clear I guess. Making it easier for US and Israel to continue bombing their nuclear sites and make Iran never gets a nuclear bomb. FWIW , the US has driven a wedge in the ME nations with a dog eat dog mentality

Elon Musk Joins in Phone Call Between Donald Trump and Narendra Modi

Mr. Musk’s participation was notable because it is rare for a private citizen to be on a call between heads of state. It also suggests that Mr. Musk is back on better terms with the president.

Mr. Musk’s participation was notable because it is rare for a private citizen to be on a call between heads of state. It also suggests that Mr. Musk is back on better terms with the president

Elon Musk participated in a phone call on Tuesday with President Trump and Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India, an unusual appearance by a private citizen on a call between two heads of state during a wartime crisis.

The inclusion of Mr. Musk, confirmed by two U.S. officials, suggests that the world’s richest man is back on better terms with the president. The two men had a falling out last summer following the billionaire’s departure from the government, where he had been tasked with slashing the work force. They appear to have smoothed things over in recent months.

The U.S. officials asked for anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly.

It is unclear why Mr. Musk was on the call or whether he spoke. His companies have taken on significant investment from sovereign wealth funds in countries in the Middle East, including Saudi Arabia and Qatar. Mr. Musk has also long coveted a greater commercial presence in India. And SpaceX, his private rocket company, has been considering an initial public offering later this year, which could be thrown into turmoil if global economic conditions worsen.

The call, American and Indian officials have said, was about the escalating crisis in the Middle East, and in particular the Iranian military’s control of the Strait of Hormuz, which is critical for the shipping of oil and gas around the globe. The halt to most maritime traffic through the strait has led to surging energy prices worldwide and roiled markets. Some Asian nations are on the verge of having to ration fuel.
Ensuring that the Strait of Hormuz remains open, secure and accessible is essential for the whole world. We agreed to stay in touch regarding efforts towards peace and stability,” Mr. Modi wrote on social media on Tuesday.

Neither government mentioned the inclusion of Mr. Musk in the official readouts or interviews.

While he helped elect Mr. Trump and played a significant role in cutting the federal bureaucracy last year, Mr. Musk does not have a government position. In the first months of the administration, he had the title of “special government employee” while overseeing a group known as DOGE that tried to make deep cuts to federal operations and spending, which led to tensions between Mr. Musk and other senior Trump aides.

Mr. Musk did not return multiple requests for comment this week. The White House declined to comment on Mr. Musk’s inclusion.

“President Trump has a great relationship with Prime Minister Modi, and this was a productive conversation,” said Karoline Leavitt, the White House press secretary.

IRAN JUST NAMED 6 COUNTRIES IT WILL STRIKE. HERE'S EVERY TARGET:

Israel bombed Iran's nuclear reactor tonight. And a yellowcake factory. Iran's response: a published hit list with named facilities across the Gulf and Israel.

🇸🇦 SAUDI ARABIA — Hadeed refinery. The kingdom's largest steel operation. One strike disrupts Saudi industrial output for months.

🇦🇪 UAE — Emirates Steel Arkan. Abu Dhabi's flagship. The UAE has spent years positioning itself as neutral. That positioning just ended.

🇶🇦 QATAR — Qatar Steel. Qatar already declared force majeure on 90 LNG cargoes. Now their steel industry is a named target.

🇧🇭 BAHRAIN — Foulath (SLUB & GIC). Home to the US 5th Fleet. Iran just told Bahrain: hosting America makes you a target.

🇰🇼 KUWAIT — United Steel Industrial Co. Kuwait has tried to stay out of this war. Iran just made that impossible.

🇮🇱 ISRAEL — Yehuda Steel. The country that bombed the reactor. First on the moral target list, last on the published one.

6 countries. 6 named facilities. Published by Tasnim — IRGC-affiliated state media. This isn't a leaked intelligence report. This is a PUBLIC declaration of targets.

Every Gulf state that thought neutrality would protect them just saw their name on an Iranian target graphic.

6 countries. Zero offramps. This war just went regional.

Israel launches strikes on nuclear sites as Iran warns of retaliation

Israel has struck a uranium processing facility in the central Iranian city of Yazd, the Israeli military confirmed, in an escalatory move that comes as regional diplomats have been attempting to broker an agreement to halt the joint US-Israeli war on Iran.

The Israeli Air Force said it hit a plant used to extract raw materials essential to the uranium enrichment process, describing it as a “unique facility” in Iran’s nuclear infrastructure. Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization confirmed the strike, but said there were no casualties or radiation leaks.

Friday marked day 28 of the conflict, and the assault on Yazd was part of a broad wave of strikes on sites across the country.

The Khondab Heavy Water Complex in central Iran was also hit.

Two major steel plants, the Khuzestan Steel facility in the country’s southwest and the Mobarakeh Steel complex in Isfahan, were also struck, with Iran’s Mehr news agencies both reporting damage to an electrical substation, an alloy steel production line and a warehouse.

Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Iran will “exact heavy price” for Israeli attacks on several important infrastructure sites. “Israel has hit 2 of Iran’s largest steel factories, a power plant and civilian nuclear sites among other infrastructure,” said Araghchi in a post on X.
