Usual US Neo Nazi strategy...

The World has a huge problem and that problem is USA and its servant idiot population that supported Nazis since 1900...

Easy to judge others when Americans never had a war inside their territories for more than 160 years... but organized all the others int he rest of the World...

American public support for this war seems to be minimal. Just the right time for Mossad to conjure up a nice false flag event to rile up the patriots.

Noctis Draven @DravenNoctis 

Hey mom, dad, grandma and grandpa, brother and sister, wife and husband, girlfriend and boyfriend...

Are you ready to see your loved ones die for Israel?

Oh sure, our corrupt and owned media and politicians will tell you it's for America, they sure will. But make no mistake, they will be dying for Israel, not America. There is no Iranian threat to America, its all for Israel as it always has been.

So, who's ready for some folded American flags? You don't want to be antisemitic right?

Seems like Iran is following Syria’s trajectory.

BRICS has no solidarity it is a trading organisation and thanks for the link.

Maybe now, but I suspect that the solidifying process is speeding up. Hang together or hang alone.

A lot of that info is quite dated, some incorrect. Algeria has, in fact, taken delivery of Su-35s, to the dismay of France, and is scheduled to take delivery of Su-57s later this year. The author tries to suggest that Iran doesn't have the the Su-35s, but it does. Most importantly, their missiles seem to work pretty well.

It's not clear to me how that fits into the demise of Syria. Re NATO solidarity, read up on the nuclear sub deal with Australia.

A focus on the details is what the state wants so no focus on the big picture, I am Australian and AUKUS does not have wide support besides warmongers and USAID funded thinktanks plus we are as big a sycophant as there is for US military rescue and hegemony on both sides of parliament though war against our lifesaver trading partner will be a hard sell to the masses as legacy media is only for the rusted on oldies now.

I should add that Iran's reluctance to be dependent on Russia is based on a long history of warfare between the two countries.

Maybe the Iranians need to review that.

That's true Mark but is that a good position to hold today?

Persia has a long civilizational history, sometimes as a victorious conquering empire, other times--the past few centuries especially--at the mercy of foreign plunderers. They have a long memory and are very suspicious. Hard to overcome, especially because they take a long view. I personally believe Putin is sincere but now we see Iran turning to China for help--perhaps they're wondering who comes after Putin.

G'day Mark, check out Johm Helmers latest it clarifies the strategic agreement with Russia which VVP cancelled it seems. It shows the true Putin is closer to Israhell than Iran and wants a deal with the US over any other considerations.

Sad but confirms the previously obvious but you know the 5d cope that we hear about in altmedia which tries to obscure it can not any longer.

Challenge "result is dysfunctional chain of command." Years ago Trita Parsi (& Flynt Leverett, author, Going to Tehran) explained that Iran's decision-making process is deliberately unfathomable to outsiders because it has been overthrown, subverted, undermined so many times, not least by Israelis.

Ronen Bergman's The Secret War With Iran describes the distress of Jews at fall of Shah bcz Jews had been all over Iran's innermost decision-making; post-shah, shut out. So they sold weapons to Khomeini during Iran-Iraq war -- it gave Israel insight/access to Iran's decision-making.

As a Historian, I was always fascinated by the collapse and end of the Roman Empire, and the Dark Ages that followed. Well I guess we're going to see it happen again. Interesting times.

Wish I was fifty years younger or fifteen years older.

Agreed. It's the cycle of history and nothing and no-one can stop it.

And allowing million of indigestible migrants to flood across their borders. Sounds rather familiar, doesn't it?

Rose tinted glasses and all, but I pray that all this is to pacify Lynsey Graham and all the bloodthirsty globalists until a Russia deal is made. I think his threat of 80 veto proof senators supporting bone crushing secondary sanctions spooked him. That's the only way any of the last week makes sense.

Maybe drinking heavily, smoking something and eating

I haven't trusted Hersh since he tried to convince me that the USM killed Bin Laden.

Right, but as a snapshot of US/Israeli thinking it seems to work. Although it seems probably somewhat onesided.

He is part of the hasbara now though obviously 60 years ago he was fiercely against the state, if he was still fierce how does he have inside leakers they would be goaled for 50years. He is believable enough to be still read with some truth obviously like nordstream story.

Recommend this 80-min C Span video from 2013 (last 45 min most informative)

Into the Desert: Jeff Engel runs Bush Library at Southern Methodist U.

Spoke on GHWB decision-making to wage war on Iraq

https://www.c-span.org/program/book-tv/into-the-desert-reflections-on-the-gulf-war/300781

Pertinent: 1. did not do it for democracy or save Kuwait ---, but, in unipolar moment, to prove that USA was still in charge;

2. Did not go fully into Baghdad because convinced that Iraqis would welcome "liberaation" and topple Saddam
