The Sunni Muslim countries with oil in the Middle East are run by oligarchs and sheikhs that dislike the Shia Muslim Iranian country that also produces oil.

These venal sheikdoms are thoroughly incorporated in the Western economy and immensely bribeable; the Iranian Shia theocracy is not incorporated in the West.

Different religion, different people (Arab vs Persian), oil competition, and Iranian concern about the Lebanese or Palestinians getting killed by the Israelis is what we are looking at.

By the US sanctioning and punishing Iran on behalf of Israel and these wealthy Sunni sheikdoms, we drove Iran into the Kremlin's camp.

So, Iran has been helping Russia against Ukraine.

The Iranians make money selling Shahed drones to Russia; they didn't make money expending resources defending Palestinians.

Faux Christian Warmongering Islamophobe US Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) bleating today:

"Bibi and Trumpf are the modern Roosevelt-Churchill combination. Bibi and President Trump are Roosevelt-Churchill, two great war time leaders working together to bring down evil. Iran would kill Americans in large numbers if they could. If they could build a missile to hit us, they would hit us. If they had a nuclear weapon, they would use it. Their proxies " Hezbollah, Hamas, the Houthis " have American bloods on their hands. Hezbollah killed 220 Marines and 18 sailors in 1983. So these people are religious Nazis, you can no more convince the ayatollah to give up his religious Nazi views than you could convince Hitler to stop killing all the Jews."

Too bad, there's a lot to learn from Spain which has an excellent pension system for retirees, universal healthcare unlike the US, a growing population thanks to immigration, as well as delicious produce, wine, and cuisine.

JFC.

My Stalker missed flagging this as "FUNNY" too.

Wakey-wakey!

I am surprised my stalker didn't flag this as "FUNNY" because he has been pretty good at highlighting my comments.

Must be the trans-Atlantic time zone difference between the US and Israel and there's a Judeo-Christian-inspired Armageddon going on over there.

The Iranians weren't killing people "based on religion" when the Shah of Iran was in power.

Iran started helping the Lebanese after Israel invaded them in 1982.

Iran hasn't invaded another country since the days of Xerxes II and the Battle of Thermopylae.

The Jewish community has lived in Iran for 5,000 years.

Muslim Iranian security forces arrested and shot more Muslims than Jews, Christians, and Zoroastrians during the US and Israeli-inspired protests, thanks to Felon Musk's smuggled Starlink systems.

TYPO FIXED: Too bad, there's a lot to learn from Spain which has an excellent pension system for retirees, universal healthcare, a rrowing population thanks to immigration, as well as delicious produce, wine, and cuisine.

*** Dummkopf Trumpf Vows to Cut Off All Trade With Spain ***

Trumpf brayed that the US is going to "cut off all trade with Spain" over Madrid's lack of support for his illegal attack on Iran.

"We were going to cut off all trade with Spain. We don't want anything to do with Spain," he sniveled during an Oval Office meeting with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz.

Armageddon is also raging in the West Bank. Lunatic Settlers went on a rampage against Palestinians in the West Bank, firing live ammunition at residents and setting fire to Palestinian properties

The Palestine Red Crescent Society treated several on the scene in varying wound conditions, including a 15-year-old boy.

Israeli forces did not stop the Settlers from shooting at crowds. Instead, they fired tear gas at village residents following the assault, including on those wounded.

In addition to double-tapping civilian targets in Iran, the US and Israel have been targeting hospitals and other medical facilities. The IDF did the same to Palestinian and Lebanese medical personnel and infrastructure during ICC-indicted war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu's pogrom against the Palestinians in Gaza.

"Attacking a hospital is an attack on life, and attacking a school is an attack on a nation's future," Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian wrote in a social post.

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres had immediately condemned the brazen and unlawful US and Israeli attack on Iran. The IAEA "urged restraint to avoid any nuclear safety risks to people in the region" and the WHO is monitoring the situation in Iran, particularly for the spread of disease or pestilence.

Before illegally attacking Iran on behalf of Israel and without a Congressional Declaration of War, Dummkopf Trumpf bleated to the Iranian people that "help was on the way" to free them from so-called "tyrannical rule." Yet in the weeks before the onslaught, the double-talking Trumpf junta kept deporting Iranian nationals wholesale back to this "oppressive" regime.

International arrest warrants for crimes against humanity issued by the ICC remain active for Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu and former IDF General Yoav Gallant. In addition, the Istanbul Public Prosecutor in Turkiye issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and 30 other suspected Israeli war criminals.

The ICC has not yet indicted Dummkopf Trumpf, Pete Hegseth, or Marco Rubio for war crimes.

Indictments are merely allegations. To ensure a fair trial, Messrs Netanyahu and Gallant must both be presumed innocent until they are proven guilty beyond a shadow of a doubt at an international tribunal to be held for them in the Hague at future dates.

"The Polymarket user, under the name "Magamyman," reportedly earned about $430,000 by predicting that the US would strike Iran on 28 February.

Roughly $529 million was bet on when the war would begin, with $90 million riding on 28 February.
Polymarket, a US-based gambling platform, operates with limited regulatory oversight, permitting bets on anything from sports events to weather changes to election results and war outbreaks.

Most of Magamyman's gains stemmed from bets on Israeli attacks targeting Iran. In October 2024, the same account correctly predicted an Israeli strike set for 26 October 2024, a date that Israeli security sources said was approved only days earlier.

This led to the investigation into whether the account holder had insider access or simply impeccable luck.

Earlier in February 2026, the Shin Bet, Israeli police, and the Defense Ministry arrested several soldiers suspected of placing similar bets using classified information."

*** US Defense Contractors in Kuwait Stranded and Getting Screwed ***

"Employees of major defense contractor V2X Inc on US military bases in Kuwait say they lack adequate bunker facilities and have had their pay reduced amid Iranian missile attacks across the Gulf region, while receiving limited communication from their employer about safety and evacuation procedures.

The Guardian interviewed three V2X employees on the US bases Camp Arifjan and Camp Buehring in Kuwait, following Iranian missile strikes on Kuwait, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and Jordan."

"Everybody talks about the military but nobody talks about us," said the first American worker. "We are stuck here and treated like we are expendable."
