Yes sir, I believe they are panicked as well. I am under the impression America assumed their days of having to deal head on with foreign adversaries was behind them. Not much doubt in my mind the W elite thought Russia would roll over in early 2022.
Prior to that a war was declared domestically instead. In order to make Western Civ easier to control the elite opened the floodgates on its own population. Started arresting and demonizing everything that had any inking of common sense and humility.
This included the individuals at the bottom of the military as well. You know the ones actually doing the fighting. The elites and their beloved hegemony are in a real pickle now. It’s so ironic for me to be saying all of this having come from a very patriotic background. The adults in the room that seem to be pro humanity are the very same nations dubbed as the latest “axis of evil.” China, Russia, and Iran are the reasons this has not escalated out of control. It’s been a personal struggle since the covid crisis on my end. Let’s just say it’s been a learning experience.
I thought Iran really threaded the needle quite nicely with their response. We will overwhelm you with cheap drones and then hit you with a hypersonic left hook when you run out of ammo. Though I am unsure if any (hypersonic) were used last night. Seems all of the things they did hit were military related as well. So far it looks like they achieved the mission without escalating the matters.
Those of us on the right should understand that if Iran was really an uncontrollable monster they would have done irreparable damage long ago. How difficult would it have been to target facilities in the region that would raise the price of oil making gas $8 per gallon. Probably not too hard at all. If gasoline and diesel hit these prices in the US we would be toast.
What this tells me is that contrary to conventional thought Iran, China, nor Russia want to see the West go down in flames; at least not yet. After careful consideration it becomes clear; why would they? Having a destabilized nation being led by psychopaths with nukes is probably not great for anyone. That would be counterproductive one would think.
“May you live in interesting times” they say. Well congratulations we sure do. The old order is falling. I will be the first to tell you that does not look good for humanity existing in West Civ. It’s a recipe for really dark times ahead. I had to throw in a little DOOM of my own. This is the place to do it I hear. 😉
What of the King of Jordan; he seems a real anglophile lackey. I understand there's now a Jordanian resistence in Iraq, so perhaps his people have ideas about his removal. Saudi Arabia has joined BRICS so seems to be hedging its bets carefully with China and Russia. The other Gulf states have said, "No" to the US using their territory to attack Iran. So far Erodgan is mostly talk as I gather he likes to make money. So it has fallen to Iran to become the leader and indisputably due to an adherence to principle over material gain. My hunch is that they will continue; it's a case of the scorpion and the frog.
Interesting reference to the Battle of Agincourt, which was a triumph for asymmetric warfare.
English knights armed with a sharp rock, a big heavy stick and a piece of ‘string’ were able to defeat a force of France’s elite soldiers, all in full armor and thus easily bogged down in the mud.
Not only were the battle and the soldiers lost, but the wealth that had outfitted the finest French knights was lost as well, and the French nobility slaughtered.
The material effects of the battle were dramatic and ensured a decisive result for the campaign.
From where I'm sitting this looks like a sea change. Israel can no longer attack Iran with impunity. Will they adapt to this reality, or remain psychotic?
Aside, the new salmon background color is a bit too bright. UI elements and link text are getting lost against it. Try something a little darker and more muted maybe?
You are very optimistic, but imho, the Zionist Entity will know how to play the Shia-Sunni-schism to the mayor detriment of the Muslims in general.
Only time will show, and it's an interesting one just now ...🤔🤔
PS: I know, you like to talk and write about doom so much, but is there any chance to get rid of that horrible bloody-reddish background in your comment-section ??🤞🤞

Thank you for another excellent article!
Victory to Iran!

Thanks for an insightful and well-written article Ahnaf Ibn Qais.
Got to say, for the Islamic world the Shia are definitely leading in courage and will to win.
