“American officials said that Trump is seriously considering joining the war and carrying out an American attack on Iran's nuclear facilities, especially the underground uranium enrichment facility at Fordow”

All indicates that's the plan. That's simply it.

The goal is clear, they want a complete collapse of Iran in an Iraq like scenario and they don't care what happens.

Israelis don't care, they are two countries far and don't care about immigration, civil war, hunger or whatever.

The U.S., they don't care either as long as they think they can end this threat once and for all in the first opportunity in 50 years.

Let's say, the next two weeks will either change the history of the middle east forever or will showcase a stand by Iran and a survival that will be talked about for decades

❗️The President will convene shortly with his National Security Council in the Situation Room.

According to Axios, the President is "seriously considering" joining the war and launching airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities. It seems this may be the meeting that decides it.

The Israeli assessment of 1-2 weeks might be based on U.S. attacking soon and based on that destroying all Iran's nuclear locations

Once that is done, and considering they claimed they destroyed 60% of Iran's launchers, they can conclude with a victory

The decision of the US to join the fight against Iran was already made while ago.

Trump will not let Israel "win" this alone, he wants to be part of it, especially after his "diplomacy" failed.

But Israel had to dominate the airspace first.

Fox News’ Peter Doocy reports ODNI Tulsi Gabbard was left out of meeting to discuss Israel and Iran at Camp David on Sunday, June 8.

Per @pdoocy
“We can report via a US official that DNI Tulsi Gabbard was not invited to last week’s camp David retreat where President Trump convened senior national security officials to discuss the Middle East. 

She had a scheduling conflict with National Guard orders, but was never invited in the first place,” Doocy reports.

She is the National Director of Intelligence for the U.S and she is being left aside, tells you everything you need to know

Funny Trump, as expected.

His motive now? Can't let Israel use his weapons, Intel, and defense and claim a victory alone.

He has to participate so his name can be part of what they will achieve

🇮🇷l🇺🇸 NEW: US intel believes, as of last week, not only was Iran not actively pursuing a nuclear weapon, it was also up to three years away from being able to produce and deliver one to a target of its choosing

The parasitic whore is trying to incite the honorable people of Iran to revolt.

They won't, and they will definitely not do that when foreigners are attacking their land...

And they definitely won't at the words of a person who is nothing but a pawn to Israel

Sources tell CNN the US military is preparing for the possibility that President Trump will order the Air Force to assist in refueling Israeli fighter jets during strikes over Iran.

Short on jet fuel?

Russians indeed proved both incompetent and a bad ally for both Syria and Iran

Post by Patricia Marins on X:

A Miscalculated Geopolitical Strategy by Iran

Iran made a strategic mistake by strengthening its ties with Russia, given that Russia has much stronger relations with Israel, where 20% of the population speaks Russian and where they are partners in a significant portion of the military-technology industry.

It’s no coincidence that the Russians delayed the delivery of the S-300 systems to Iran by several years, citing various deadlines and yielding to Israeli pressure. This forced the Iranians to invest heavily in developing their own missile systems.

However, Iran persisted in its alliance with Russia and attempted to purchase a batch of Su-35 fighters, even paying for them, but never received the aircraft. Years later, in a new deal, Iran arranged the purchase of Su-34s, which were also never delivered.

The reality is that Russia has always been caught between Israel and Iran. Iran, due to a miscalculation, insisted on maintaining its alliance with Russia, neglecting agreements with China, which could have provided Iran with a more capable Air Force.

Despite this, Iran has heavily invested in military technology, especially missiles, defense systems, and radars. The country was among the leading nations publishing research in this area, according to [aspi.org.au/programs/criti…]

Iranian indigenous radars have been able to detect and lock onto Israeli F-35 aircraft, doing so as early as 2019 and again in 2024.

Israel knew it had to stop Iran immediately, both in missile production, but mainly in technological development.

And Israel understood that Russia would remain silent in the face of any attack.

.@N12News interview now w/Israel NSC Head @Tzachi_Hanegbi:

-We're in constant discussions w/ the United States but are not trying to convince them to join

-Operation planned "Blue and White" -- i.e. to be carried out by Israel alone

-Operation will not end without striking Fordo

-HaNegbi says regime change is not a set operational goal, but Israel would be happy to see the fall of a regime as an unintended consequence

What people should now clearly understand what Sayyed Hassan said more than a decade ago

"2006 war which we won, stopped the New Middle East. It foield the U.S project."

The project started again in 2023, and the results eliminated the threat one by one until the war reached Iran

Gaza - Lebanon - Syria - Iran

This is a reality, that without the events in Gaza (Israel's ability to keep Hamas a manageable localized threat), in Lebanon (Israel's ability to force a demilitarization of Hezbullah in south Lebanon under 1701), the collapse of the Syrian system that was pro-Arab pro-Resistance...today the war wouldn't have take place in Iran.

Even logistically, it wouldn't have been able to attack Iran had Syria not collapsed to the rebels (foreign and local). That's a 13-year-old US-Arab project that won after it failed and had no chance to recover.

Syria... Syria's fall that was the catastrophe

The U.S. through Israel and soon possibly at its own hands are going for the last bastion and last wall blocking the New Middle East, one where no state opposes the U.S. and is willing to normalize ties with Israel.

Middle East Spectator — MES
The office of former President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad denies the reports about his assassination, says he is in good health.
Genuine question

Has he, or Iran's old presidents, opposition (reformists) and even the clergy in Qom (and Najaf) said anything yet to condemn the Israeli attacks and voice support to the state?

I'm not sure if I failed to reach such coverage or everyone stayed silent

Can anyone please help
