Stop the crazy talk of China sending any weapons to Iran.
Hasn't your Westoid subpar intelligence media been clamoring in like 5000 articles that China already sends weapons to Russia, so why would they not send it to Iran too?
But, the truth is in the middle, they are not sending weapons directly to Russia to save the US some face. However, they still essentially exporting their manufacturing weight by sending components instead.
And they are, funny enough, doing some of that that through Iran presently, which then assembles and sends it to Russia. I see a 0% chance they wouldn't increase that for Iran itself if Iran gets attacked.
Why major Chinese banks have cut ties with their Russia counterparts.
Major banks that have dealings with the US cut some ties. But, a bunch of smaller, regional Chinese banks have helped increase trade between them to 240 billion at the end of 2023 and are on track to double their pre-war trade volume soon.
And that is all done 95% in local currencies nowadays, so you Westoids can't even know and claim who has cut ties with whom, and what the real volume traded is since you can't have insight into that as you could during the pre-war period when they used dollars and SWIFT system.
Me thinks no pre-empt on Iran or hezbo by Bibi is coming. No surprise since Bibi allowed Oct 7th to happened which allowed Bibi to degrade hamas so much that they are a shell of their former self and will remain that way for the foreseeable future. He doesn't have to defeat them. US didn't defeat ISIS or al-qaeda they are still around but nowhere near the strength and control of land both once had. I think Bibi will allow Iran and hezbollah to rain down missiles on Israel and some will get through likely killing Israelis and destroying buildings which will give Israel the excuse not just to hit back but hit back hard.
That bombing of houthi ports by Israel sure shut the houthis up... for now. I can see Israel targeting Iranian fuel depots, refineries and nuke plants sending Iran economy into a tizzy. As for hezbollah they will in end up like hamas, isis and al-qaeda and Lebanon will suffer greatly for it.
...or they could be jerking us around and pull another stunt like back in April and then say, we good, and everything goes back to the status quo.
It is funny how you already constructed such a nice cope for the future. Keep it up, this is some next-level coping.
Not coping in the moment, but already having future copes ready.
It is good that you acknowledged that Israel really did corner itself big time this time, and they are powerless but to be struck the hardest so far in their history by Iran and their partners.
Of course, they are not going to do anything premetively, because that's also impossible mega cope. Instead, they are likely going to attack Lebanon directly next, after the upcoming humiliation, in hopes of drawing the US, to the war, to help them.
Then the US is going to get itself bogged down in another endless war against Hezbollah and Iraninan-backed groups in Iraq and Syria, since they are also outmatched by them, it will be many years with even more already scarce military capacity that the US would have to waste there, as they did in Ukraine, and make it even more likely to get defeated by China, in the Pacific, likelihood raised from 95% to 100%. Who knows, maybe even Maduro will do something in Venezuela too.
It is hard being such a falling empire, death by a thousand cuts, you cover one hole on your sinking ship, but another pops out right away, and you are powerless with your weakening capacity to stop anything and survive.
As for either Israel or the US starting any major attack against Iran directly (not assassinating some politicians to score useless points), even with their Westoid primitive mindset, they know it is a very, very bad idea.
You are talking about a group of folks not too different than the ISIS or African warlords who wouldn't think twice about kidnapping children to be soldiers, pillaging villages and mass raping young girls.
They have been.implicated in mass torture and other human rights abuse of thousands of people.
A Houthi militant wouldn't think twice about murdering you and raping your wife and daughter or hold you for ransom if you were to nonchalantly go visit north Yemen.
A large portion of everyday Yemenis hate them.
Sorry for my rant but some folks here are just ridiculous!
What you described is what the West has been doing, to the rest of the world, for 500 years, on a massively larger scale and also in terms of even worse types of actions.
And I think that it is a little strange how you had an "urge" to suddenly "point" out some of Houthis' alleged misconduct in the wake of the worst modern genocide that Israel is doing.
You are also a massive liar, about Houthis' support in Yemen. Here is the video from 3 days in the capital city of Saana which has a few million people (but hundreds of thousands of people constantly go out to express support like this, never seen in most other countries). Look at the sheer size of this crowd, I'm always amazed.
Also, former enemies in Yemen all support Houthis now, a record number of fighters are recruited, etc.
So, I could now give one arm and one leg and bet that Houthis have more support in Yemen than all of Western governments in their countries (and by a very considerable margin).
