Iran

[Coss]

There is as we all see, some serious demographically targeted population reduction going on in Iran.

People who look like this

  

are massacring  protestors

 

And it would seem that it doesn't matter if you get your clothes from a tailor on Saville Row, or by the yard from a fabric store, the greed is well entrenched, in any bunch of miscreants that get their hand on power, anywhere.

It would appear that several of London’s most exclusive neighbourhoods - nicknamed “Beverly Hills of Dubai” and “Billionaire’s Row” etc, are popular places for the powerful to hide their money.

Coss comment:

Unsubstantiated rumours that the powerful, including mosques full 'o middle eastern types, Putin, his Oligarchs, The Drumpfs and Thaksin from Thailand have stripped their countries of as much as they can and hidden their ill gotten gains in London  and elsewhere, are just that - unsubstantiated and secret.

Israel launches strikes against Iran

Israel has launched strikes against Iran, with witnesses reporting blasts in the capital, Tehran.

Israel's Defence Minister, Israel Katz, confirmed Israel is attacking Iran.

"The State of Israel launched a pre-emptive attack against Iran to remove threats to the State of Israel," he said in a statement.

Iranian state media reported explosions in Tehran.

Trump says of Iran 'sometimes you have to' use force

 

The US has amassed a huge military presence in the region after the president threatened military action if Tehran refused to forswear nuclear weapons.

Just before a quarter past eight in the morning, local time, warning sirens sounded across Israel, warning Israelis to stay close to shelters in the event of any retaliation.

Witnesses have reported blast strikes downtown in Tehran, Iran's capital, as thick smoke was seen rising in the sky.

The incident comes as tensions mount between Iran and the United States over Tehran's nuclear program.

The attack against Iran pushes the Middle East into a renewed military confrontation and further dims hopes for a diplomatic solution to Tehran's long-running nuclear dispute with the West.

The attack, coming after Israel and Iran engaged in a 12-day air war last June, follows repeated US-Israeli warnings that they would strike again if Iran pressed ahead with its nuclear and ballistic missile programmes.

The US and Iran renewed negotiations in February in a bid to resolve the decades-long dispute through diplomacy and avert the threat of a military confrontation that could destabilise the region.

Israel, however, insisted that any US deal with Iran must include the dismantling of Tehran's nuclear infrastructure, not just stopping the enrichment process, and lobbied Washington to include restrictions on Iran's missile program in the talks.

Iran said it was prepared to discuss curbs on its nuclear programme in exchange for lifting sanctions, but ruled out linking the issue to missiles.

Tehran also said it would defend itself against any attack.

It warned neighbouring countries hosting US troops that it would retaliate against American bases if Washington struck Iran.

In June, the US joined an Israeli military campaign against Iranian nuclear installations, in the most direct American military action ever against the Islamic Republic.

Tehran retaliated by launching missiles toward the Al Udeid air base in Qatar, the largest US base in the Middle East.

Western powers have warned that Iran's ballistic missile project threatens regional stability and could deliver nuclear weapons if developed. Tehran denies seeking atomic bombs.

Great wealth has always been amassed while others suffer…while I tend to agree the regime in Iran needs to go…so does the regime in the USA…just saying…

Iran? Why? Who benefits?...

I have to say, my opinion, is that Donatella has not thought this through.

If you remember, I posted that,  I thought he was a fool for pulling out of the working and good, agreement that USA (and Europe) had with Iran, when he first got into office, 10? yrs ago.

The problem with Presidents,  saying to staff "present me with options",  is that with Donald: 'You do not know anyone as stupid as Donald Trump'  Fran Lebowitz (She knows him from the New York social scene over the years).

HIs assessment of options, is to him, the same as choosing between a Cheeseburger and a Filet o'fish.

codicil:

please note, that other than my tendency towards being a peacenik, I have no real issues with the USA sorting out the Persian god botherers.

In the realm of the world's geo politics, western liberal democracies, do, like other kinds of power, exert force where they feel it is necessary.

My animus toward's the current USA actions in regards to Iran, is not directed towards the actions themselves, but towards the absolute moron, the USA have got, barely standing up, and taking credit for them.

I do. Iran being run by a dictatorship is no different to what's going on in the US.

Fair enough, you and I can discuss things without resorting to blows, we're cleverer than the others.

Whilst people should be able to play religious sycophant in their own way, slaughtering people in the streets is a bad thing. So  if we can stop it (we = western folk) then good.

Vis the USA democracy/dictatorship my views are known.

Could this all be categorized under the Ternus Effect?

Wasn't a shot at you personally. Just how dangerous this cretin is.

So let's look at what else has happened. US Embassy attacked in Pakistan. Austin mass shooting. Gaza humanitarian aid stopped.
