The Libyan scenario is beginning to play out. HTS didn't win as much as sanctions did and the hollowed out Baathist regime crumbled under its own weight. It's difficult to know how Russia will triangulate with Turkiye HTS and Iran. It seems fairly plain that HTS will target other minorities after the Kurds if they don't go into Iraq. I have to imagine that this is going to have a dialectic effect on Iran and Iraqi militias, but Iran is having to deal with internal contradictions and it's unclear if they have the material and will to get involved at least in Syria itself as it's now had its military bombed away.

I don't know but alot of people think it could do alot with changing existing countries currently outside the conflict. Considering how popular Palestinian liberation is in many US backed dictatorships. Egypt, Jordan, SA, etc. That's the real unknown in a regional war scenario.

One can only hope. Unfortunately for the US we'd likely absorb a diaspora that would make the Florida Cubans look like liberals.

Kind of cool how no one celebrates it or knows it exists I guess

Raisi in SA

https://www.rt.com/news/584220-israel-gaza-hamas-attack/

Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi has called on Islamic governments to designate Israel as a “terrorist organization” due to its ongoing military operations in Gaza.

“Islamic governments should designate the army of the occupying and aggressor regime as a terrorist organization,” Raisi said at the Joint Arab Islamic Extraordinary Summit in Riyadh as Middle Eastern leaders convened to discuss the Israel-Hamas conflict.

Raisi also called on Islamic countries to cut “any sort of political or economic relations” with Israel, as well as the introduction of a trade boycott “especially in the energy field.”

Raisi’s arrival in Riyadh on Saturday was the first time an Iranian head of state had visited Saudi Arabia since diplomatic ties between the two countries were normalized in a Beijing-brokered deal in March.
