From Sony Thang on the USA:
There has never been a terrorist organization on Earth with the global reach of the United States.
None with more bases.
None with more proxies.
None with a larger civilian kill count.
None with a better public relations department.
That is what makes it so dangerous.
America is not merely violent.
It is violently respectable.
It can strike a school full of children and still have "experts" explain why the massacre was "complex."
It can back genocide and still get invited to human rights summits.
The gangster at least admits he is a gangster.
The empire wants a Nobel Prize.

🇺🇸The oil tankers seized by Trump are costing the US tens of millions of dollars, - NYT
The US campaign to seize oil tankers transporting oil from countries under US sanctions has turned out to be much more expensive than expected.
The maintenance of just one tanker, Skipper, has already cost the US 47 million dollars over three months, with the cost of the ship itself estimated at around 10 million dollars.

“Saudi FM says Iran must uphold Islamic ethics. How remarkable!
Is it Islamic ethics to open your land to America and the Zionist entity to attack Iran?
To bomb Yemen for 10 years — funerals, weddings, hospitals, mosques?”

Tfw decades of moderates trying to negotiate deals can't get you sanctions relief but unleashing the IRGC to fire some missiles for a couple of weeks will.
The first time anyone has gone to war with a country and unsanctioned them at the same time?

🇷🇺 Russia is considering deploying armed escort teams and naval protection for vessels under the Russian flag.
Presidential aide Nikolai Patrushev said measures are being developed to place special defensive systems on ships and to organize convoy protection by the Russian Navy. He stressed that diplomatic and legal tools are often insufficient amid the Western campaign against Russian shipping.
If new threats emerge from European countries, Russia will implement additional countermeasures.
Patrushev called the attack on the tanker Arktik Metagas in the Mediterranean a blatant act and classified it as international terrorism.

🇮🇷 Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi:
—
Americans haven’t forgotten how, even as hundreds of U.S. soldiers were dying in Vietnam, and the outcome was already clear, General William Westmoreland was flown home to reassure everyone that the war was going well — that the U.S. was “winning.”
The media haven’t forgotten either; those briefings full of fantasy from the frontlines became infamous as the “Five O’Clock Follies.”
Fast forward to today: same script, different stage; Hegseth steps up, and the message is still detached from reality.
The U.S. government says one thing, reality says another.
Right as U.S. authorities claim Iran’s air defences are gone, an F-35 gets hit. As they declare Iran’s navy finished, USS Gerald Ford turns back, and USS Abraham Lincoln drifts farther away.
Different decade, same “we’re winning.”
Russian journalist and political researcher Maxim Shevchenko:
"I read posts from some Russian-speaking Israelis expressing joy at the killing of children."
"Then these people come to Moscow and St. Petersburg and live among us."
"All of them should have their dual citizenship revoked."

🇮🇷🚫🇺🇸🇮🇱 Pete Hegseth accuses Iran of investing in missiles and weapons rather than taking care of the Iranian people, during a speech in which he calls for $200 billion to be spent on weapons instead of caring for its own people.
Iran spends $90 per capita on its military budget.
The United States spends $2,900 per capita.
Israel spends $5,000.
The American political class believes everyone is secretly as cowardly as they are.
That deep down, every people will eventually choose comfort over honor, safety over sovereignty, appetite over principle.
Iran is the recurring proof that this assumption is false.
That is why they cannot leave it alone.
It is not just a geopolitical rival.
It is a metaphysical insult to their anthropology.
It proves that human beings can still be organized by faith, memory, sacrifice, and destiny.
Trump cannot understand any of this because he cannot even understand silence unless it is flattering him.
🇸🇦🇮🇷Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud on Iran hitting the zioarabslaves:
I don't know how they claim to be fighting for Islamic causes while attacking Islamic countries.
It looks Faisal “forgot” how they starved 500 000 people in Yemen in a decade long war initiated by them…
I wonder when people will realise how fucked they are despite being seemingly not involved in the war. A day before the war started a liter of gas cost 1.47 euro here. Now it is at 1.84. Nearly 40 cents more. Energy prices are skyrocketing as well and it will take people some time to notice. But they will notice. And then what? Blame immigrants again I guess.
From Sony Thang
Some Islamic regimes speak as if Iran became their enemy the moment it answered aggression.
Think about the sickness required to say that out loud.
American bases operate from your soil.
Israeli interests are protected by your silence.
Muslims are massacred in full view of the world.
And the state you call "reckless" is the one refusing to die quietly.
What kind of Islam is this?
An Islam terrified of America.
An Islam domesticated by luxury.
An Islam that has memorized verses but forgotten courage.
Do not call that wisdom.
Call it what it is:
Faith emptied out and rented to empire.

🇮🇷 Iran has established a safe transit corridor through the Strait of Hormuz.
At least nine vessels have already passed, routed near Larak Island for visual inspection by IRGC naval forces and port authorities, according to Lloyd’s List, a maritime intelligence outlet.
This aligns with broader reports that Tehran is selectively allowing ships through while maintaining effective control over the strait and restricting wider traffic.
🇮🇷🇮🇱| Iran has executed a Mossad agent today
Kourosh Keyvani, a spy for the Israeli regime who provided images and information about sensitive locations to Mossad, was executed after legal process and confirmation by the Supreme Court.
He was arrested, along with 30,000 euros in cash, a pickup truck, a cross motorcycle, various complex espionage, intelligence, and satellite communication devices, on the 4th day of the 12-day war, in one of his hideout villas in Savojbolagh County.

🇪🇺🇮🇷 Gas prices in Europe have risen by 60% since the start of the conflict in the Middle East, — Reuters
The EU does not have a single universal solution to deal with this problem in the short term, admitted Lithuanian Energy Minister Vaicunas to journalists.
The cost of gas in Europe has also risen by more than 30% after Iran's attack on a LNG production complex in Qatar.
The price of gas on European exchanges exceeded $850 per 1,000 cubic meters and broke the record set in December 2022.

Trump knew very well. Who else would’ve helped them with refuelling, specially for attacks in the south of Iran.

🇺🇸🇮🇷The relatives of US Air Force pilot Tyler Simmons, who died in the crash of a KC-135 refueling aircraft in Iraq a few days ago, are demanding that the authorities stop the war with Iran:
This could have been prevented. We had no business being in this war. None of this was necessary. And this is what it's turned into for us.
The relatives (of the deceased) are in mourning now. Not just ours, but also in other families who have lost loved ones. To start a war just because you felt like it? That's wrong! Wrong!

Looks like the scandal regarding US troops dying is starting to pile up. Wonder if the US media will be able to keep this under the censorship rug.
The entire world is being advised to return to working from home, The Guardian reports.
The publication reports that the World Energy Organization has recommended governments reduce speed limits on highways and urged workers to carpool or, ideally, work from home to combat the sharp rise in oil prices and looming fuel shortages caused by the conflict in the Middle East.
It has also recommended that all countries consider restricting vehicle access to designated areas in major cities.

Omani journalist and international affairs researcher Salem Al-Jahoori on BBC Arabic confirms reports of U.S. pressure on Gulf Cooperation Council states to pay up, either way.
According to leaks Al-Jahoori cites, Trump is demanding GCC states pay $5 trillion to sustain the war, or $2.5 trillion as a fee for stopping it, framed as payment for "what has been accomplished."
Protection racket without any protection.

If the information about the strike on Diego Garcia is correct, then one of the central assumptions about the Iranian missile program has collapsed. For many years, the generally accepted range of their missiles was about 2,000 kilometers. A ballistic missile that reached Diego Garcia implies a range of about 4,000 kilometers, which places Iran in the category of countries possessing fundamentally different weapons. And for them, this is a strategic leap.
The main thing is not whether the missile was intercepted or not. The point is that Iran may have demonstrated a range of action far exceeding what most of the world believed it possessed.
The possibility of a strike at a range of 4,000 kilometers changes the balance of power in the region. Major European capitals are now vulnerable. Paris is within reach. London is significantly approaching the border of vulnerability, depending on the launch point and payload. This will mean that the missile threat is no longer limited to the Persian Gulf, Israel, or certain parts of South Asia.
In general, it can be assumed that the Iranian message was received on the other side by everyone who needed to receive it.
The International Energy Agency has issued warnings about upcoming energy crisis and how to deal with it. The US and Israel have severely fucked themselves over with this.

Japanese Reporter: Why didn’t you inform allies before attacking Iran?
Trump: We wanted surprise—who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn’t you tell me about Pearl Harbor?
🇮🇱🇮🇷| The Israeli military had published a video, amplified by its mouthpieces including Fabian, claiming they destroyed one of Iran’s newly delivered Mi-17 helicopters.
However… after people exposed their lie for it being a Bell 214A helicopter used for rescue operations and transport injured people, they deleted the tweet.
TL;DR don’t take IDF claims for granted. They lie more than you’d think.
@FotrosResistancee
Trump stated that the US no longer needs the help of NATO countries, Japan, Australia, and South Korea due to their refusal to unblock the Strait of Hormuz.
He got offended!😂
The US got his military bases in 8 countries smashed into pieces, for the first time had his “stealth” F-35 shot, has CONFIRMED well over 200 military casualties, and the cherry on top: Is UN-SANCTIONING oil from IRAN giving them a 14 billion dollar revenue, directly buys oil from Iran for the first time since 3 decades ago.
So much winning by Trump here!
