It's just another day in the Middle East

Editor's note: Just in case most folks are confused it's not about Iran having nuclear weapons, that's just the narrative or the pretext. A coming war over eschatology? From the looks of the things in Israel circumstances are not going too well as Israel is providing intelligence to the US military for indiscriminate bombing runs on Yemen, Israel continues bombing Gaza, Syria, Lebanon in Beirut while building IDF outposts in southern Syria. Impressive. All for Yahweh. Imagine that: "Come to a nuclear deal or we will bomb your country" as the Christian right in America prays with Trump. Must be the "art of the deal" bargaining for Israel or something like that. And in Israel itself? Well, there was an Arab spring so why not an Israeli spring? The history of the Middle East at least since 1948: Continuous war, strife, antisemitism, antiArabism, sectarian violence, eschatological insanity, bombings, terrorism, shootings, rapes, pillaging, sabotage, assassinations, extrajudicial killings, hostage taking, beatings and the list just keeps growing. And to top it all off Trump threatens Iran with "never-seen-before bombings." As far as the Palestinians are concerned f*ck 'em, that's the world's attitude after 70 years of conflict. We have become desensitized to death as the entire world has gone stark raving mad.

Trump Warns Iran Of Unprecedented Bombing Campaign If Nuke Deal Not Reached

By Tyler Durden | April 1, 2025

Sunday saw more threats directed at Iran by President Trump. He told NBC News in a phone interview, "If they don’t make a deal, there will be bombing. It will be bombing the likes of which they have never seen before." This is the most explicit and direct threat yet, after similar rhetoric from the White House last week. Three weeks ago President Trump sent a letter to Iran's Supreme Leader, urging fresh negotiations toward a new nuclear deal.

In that letter, which the Iranians only much belatedly acknowledged, Trump had issued a two-month deadline for Iran to sign a new deal, warning that if not then Tehran could face military action. Axios and other outlets have highlighted the movement of B-2 stealth bombers in the Indian Ocean, connected with the warnings issued to Iran:
In recent days, the U.S. military sent several B-2 stealth bombers to the Diego Garcia military base in the Indian Ocean in a deployment a U.S. official said was "not disconnected" from Trump's two-month deadline
. The same report notes, "The B-2 bombers can carry huge bunker buster bombs that would be a key element in any possible military action against Iran's underground nuclear facilities."

But the Islamic Republic has also long maintained underground 'missile cities'. The immense size of these underground complexes would make it nearly impossible to take out all of Iran's ballistic missile capabilities without an intense, sustained war.

If a new major war in the Middle East kicked off under the Trump administration, it would become deeply unpopular even among the conservative base. The public is generally war-weary, which is also why Trump is pushing hard for peace in Ukraine.

Any new US bombing campaign in Iran could also complicate US efforts for peace in Ukraine, further as in parallel the US tries to keep the Abraham Accords in the Middle East alive.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has responded to these new Trump threats, saying Sunday that any future diplomatic discussion depends on Washington's behavior.

Have a listen to Reza Pahlavi, the exiled Crown Prince of Iran who states "the Ali Khamenei's regime must go." What will it take? US military bombing runs over military targets in Iran launched off Diego Garcia?




Are these people at the ADL out of their minds? Really? Unbelievable violence taking place in Israel against the Palestinians and the ADL suggests the world should turn a blind eye? The ADL needs to move their operations to Israel because they are no longer welcome in America.
