unless it’s at the Hague.

that is not happening either. USA will sooner fully collapse than send its leaders to the Hague

haha, usaians are so funny. there’s not gonna be any trial and ya’ll know it.

Its such a pity that Iranians don’t get peace from their Islamist oppressors not even in western countries.

For days I kept hearing from Iranians that he got really fucked during the bombing and he’s in a coma of sorts. And at first I was pretty convinced that they were doing some hopeful thinking (which, understandable, in their place I’d hope the same lol), but as days go by I’m starting to get more and more doubtful as well. Especially once the Islamist state media only put out a text message supposedly from him. Not even some audio recording. Massive red flag, tbh.

I saw the totally-normal-people on some conspiracy parts of the internet analyzing videos and counting his fingers in order to prove that his past videos were all AI and he has been dead for weeks. This will not deter them one bit, they’ll continue to believe that he is dead or that he has been replaced or something.

On the other hand, I’ve yet to see any single video of the new ayatollah ever since he was installed in power by the IRGC. Has anyone? Not even an audio recording.
Its already been a week since he was installed and more than two weeks since daddy dearest went kabloey. Where lil bro at? Or maybe he’s too scared shitless to even come near any piece of tech in case the israelis will make it explode like they did with the pagers.

okay tell me - is he a rapist

I mean in provinces like Sistan and Baluchestan, South Khorasan, Razavi Khorasan, North Khorasan, Ardebil, Zanjan, East Azarbaijan, you have 30% of all marriages being child marriages.
Then Golestan, Yazd, Kerman, Hormozgan, Bushehr, Khuzestan, Lorestan, Hamadan, Qazvin, Qom and West Azarbaijan with ~+20% being child marriages. The rest have like 10-19% child marriage rate.

Only Tehran has the lowest, around 8% of marriages being child marriages.

Oh and let’s not forget the practice of “temporary marriages”.

ALSO: sorry for the vomit emoji, I accidentally put it there instead of my message and I don’t know how to take it out 😣 (nvm, I replaced it with a double exclamation point emoji)

the US/Israel still started it

No one argued against that. You’re making things up so you can win an imaginary argument. You gotta be Usaian, there’s no way any other people are this ridiculous.

It’s too quick an escalation.

I’m sorry? They’re okay with bombing US bases and kill soldiers, but cyber attacks against government websites is one step too far? They’re bombing shit left and right but hacking some Usaian company is too much?

Sorry, that really doesn’t track.

A more feasible explanation would be that this is the best they can do right now. I really don’t see any reason why they would hold back.

Agreed. Only worded it like that so I didn’t start writing text-walls again about Israel/USA’s actual interests in this conflict. Neither of any of those involved care about the wellbeing/freedom of the Iranian people.

I admit, I don’t know enough about Israel’s internal politics to make a good judgement on that - but to me it feels like Israel either wouldn’t be so emboldened or would pretty much stop their actions if USA were to back off. Or at most only launch rockets every now and then.

but I never took into account the incompetence of Iran’s new despot

I dunno if this is incompetence, its rather just the modus operandi of the regime.
They killed thousands or possibly tens of thousands just for protesting.

When this will be over - and I overwhelmingly doubt USA/Israel/etc will lead to the fall of the Islamic regime - they will want to ensure that there is no threat to the regime. Failed revolutions are often followed by cleansings (read: mass killings and more violent oppression).
Its going to be so bad and people are going to go back to largely ignoring it, like they did in the decades prior.

Thanks for the motivation to post the message from the Islamist occupiers, here you go, “bro”: https://piefed.social/c/world/p/1869193/iran-s-islamic-regime-state-media-says-they-will-kill-iranians-both-inside-and-outside

Meanwhile the Islamists terrorists on state TV are explicitly saying that once all of this settles they will kill every single anti-regime person, both inside the country and outside.
I absolutely believe them.

Literally no one would ever be surprised by this.

Trump is 100000000000000% more likely to die from eating yet another McBurger in the next 24hrs than he’s to be assassinated by the Islamic Regime from now to the end of his natural lifespan.
Also, to people who’d view that as a positive because hurr durr Trump (I get it): that would lead to President Vance with a mandate to wage a war of revenge. The whole political discussion would suddenly shift from all the damage that Trump has done to USA, to destroying Iran, with a high possibility of giving more strength to republicans.

that one islamist’s hairdo took me entirely by surprise. what a bad hair day can make someone do, smh

And another important thing that I think its not talked about often enough.
Putin is hiding very large amounts of war debt. This is not the first time, he has done it before although at a much smaller scale. You can read all about it in this full report by Harvard economist Craig Kennedy - fair warning though, its a very long read.

The way it works is that before he invaded Ukraine, he passed a law that forces Russia’s biggest banks to give private loans at very preferential rates to private defence companies. Everything that these companies gets buried in Ukraine, and as they do so they keep on accumulating debt.

How big is this debt? At the time when that article was written, one year ago, it summed up 36.6 trillion rubles - more than 20% of the country’s entire GDP. Meanwhile they have probably accumulated even more debt. (I’ve yet to see any further significant data on this and that’s mainly because Russia has stopped making this data public)

The question is then: what happens when the war stops? Well, the chicken will come home to roost.
These companies aren’t profitable, naturally. So the least bad option is that the state will have to chime in and cover this private debts, or some other crazy shit (like letting Russia’s banks take the hit)

They have really fucked Russians over in more ways than one. Doubt they’ll stop anytime soon.

“We demand that the Islamic Republic of Iran ​clarify the matter in the shortest possible time, provide an explanation and take the necessary urgent measures to prevent such incidents from ​recurring in the future.”

Something tells me they won’t.

Wouldn’t be the first time Americans have fucked Kurds over.
I can’t help but wonder what the Kurds have been promised this time, besides the obvious (autonomy, statehood, etc)

Also, I imagine this won’t sit well with a lot of the westerners who have expressed pro-Kurdish views in the past

“The Kurds and the Jews are natural allies in the Middle East,” he said, adding that many Kurds view Israel’s establishment as proof that independence is achievable for stateless nations.
