President Donald Trump says the U.S. military struck three sites in Iran, directly joining Israel’s effort to decapitate the country’s nuclear program in a risky gambit to weaken a longtime foe amid Tehran’s threat of reprisals that could spark a wider regional conflict.

And then the Trump will invade Iran to open it citing it must remain open.
Shhhh! That’s supposed to be a secret plan!
No worries, I already read it from their Signal chat
I still don’t see that happening. Trump likes his popularity too much.
Like, he’ll nuke Iran before he ever puts boots on the ground.
He’s dying to use a nuke, just to put his name in history books.
You don’t need to invade to do that.
They may try.
There would be more than just the US and Israel bombing them if that happened, you just don’t fuck with international trade.

Who’s going to back up Iran though? Maybe the houthis, but they barely count.

Russia probably isn’t much of a concern right now.
China…we wouldn’t overextend a conflict to the point where China gets involved, right? …Not again? …For the third time?
Except it won’t even be a proxy war since the US just struck directly
russia does need a stable iran, for its drone deliveries. china provides iran with huwei tech.
I expect China wouldn’t be happy about the Straight of Hormus being closed though.

I may be wrong but I think China needs that straight open, mayb3 even more than the US do.
Pakistan, and they have nukes.
china helped them developed it in the cold war, as a buffer to india.
Much of it is from Iran and destined for China. They won’t stop those exports.
