You got this call wrong but you were thinking the Mighty America would not be so stupid to commit suicide. I am optimistic now waiting for Iran to teach the Zionists a BIG lesson.

The US needs to have an “event” happen so it can build the Iran war momentum you talk about. But at this point in time, the false flag routine has become so well-known, everyone paying attention who isn’t a part of the legacy media establishment (or an AIPAC D/R) will be calling it out.

Hell will freeze over before Iran stages a “terror attack” against the US/Europe/etc… but we desperately need them to … so stay tuned!

Another thing … Iranians are Shites … becoming a martyr is celebrated in their culture. This mindset is also how the Palestinians keep going. Most other societies would crumble under such endless bloodshed, but sumoud and martyrdom allow them to survive against all odds. Same with Iran.

I hope you are correct but Trump has received many hundreds of millions of Zionist dollars for his political campaigns. I suspect his donors have spelled out to him the consequences of his failure to "defend" Israel

Alon, you said no country has been prepared to risk its own destruction to destroy another country.

In fact Israel, in the form of Golda Meir, said she would be prepared to see the whole world destroyed in a nuclear conflagration if it ever looked like Israel would lose a war. She said this to Alan Hart, a respected BBC producer.

If Israel DOES feel boxed in by an all out Iranian attack k without US support, what would prevent them from using a nuclear bomb on Iran?

I disagree, let’s see what Turkey and the Gulf states do. Never underestimate the snake coalition.

Insightful and rational analysis - that’s the problem. You, like many others think rationally and assume the decisions being made by “world leaders” is to have their nation “win”. It is not. The objective is to destroy as much of the world’s civilian population as possible, to “depopulate” billions of people from the Earth. The plan of the international ruling class is to eliminate humanity, eliminate nations, and have a small, group of “trans humans”. control all resources on the planet through technology. Of course, the people of Israel will be destroyed, as well as the US, UK, Canada, most European nations. So will millions more in the Middle East.

Spectacular analysis from some one who knows the Israeli mindset, knows the tensions in Israeli society and, being a son of the Middle East, understands the Middle East.

Time runs in circles sometimes so wide that in our short-lived experience the circumference may be perceived as a straight line. And so it is no more than fitting that the Zionist State eventually should walk into an Iranian wall of honour, dignity and competence. Three items lacking in the Zionist pantry. Why fitting?

If you ask me the Biblical paradigm that created all this hubris and lunacy at long last is running aground. This paradigm got underway when the Persian Empire in the 6th/5th century BCE allowed Judean priests to build a temple in Jerusalem. Without that enterprise there would have been no need for written documents crafted to legitimize a new temple and its ambitious priesthood. That's to say there would have been no Bible, no Old Testament let alone a New, nor any of the madness that it has taught millions of people for over two and half thousand years.

Many thanks for the video Alon and please come back soon.

Excellent post, excellent points. I would just add that incredibly the priority for the west is the completion of the genocide in Gaza. Regime change in Iran is just a dream from the Brookings institute policy paper. They daydream about it but to go through with it is impossible. Trump is more likely to attack Iran for a bit like with the Houthis, lose badly and then Trump will declare victory and try to pretend that the US losses didn't matter. Complete insanity but they'll do it anyway for a bit just to show they still care about Israel for their billionaire donors and military industrial complex buddies but the reality will be that Israel and the US would have lost a lot in the conflict for no good reason. Trump will lose face.

Sorry, but the US stopped being logical long ago. And Israel follows a psychopathic cultist belief in the coming of the Second Temple. Thats what guides them on everything they do. The Americans just follow.

I hope us military personnel down weapons and go to prison instead of dying in the streets of tehran. Has anyone ever visited a VA nursing home? They are disgusting and worse than the usual run of the mill homes for people abandoned by their families.
