Data on Iran's military: Iran is a top 20 military power

The Persians, whose civilization goes back 5,000 years and gave the world chess, world class wrestlers, delicious cuisine, exotic musical syncopations, and the concept "zig-zag" -- supported militarily by China and Russia -- are going to punish Dummkopf Trumpf mightily for his intergalactic folly and manifest incompetence.


Every eleven minutes, someone in the US is killed with a firearm, either by an assailant, a self-inflicted wound, or by accident, and the US leads the world in mass shootings. There were at least three this past weekend.

In 2025, at least 40,000 people were shot -- more than 110 a day across the country -- and approximately 39,000 of those victims were killed (or 0.0112% of the US population).

By contrast, peaceful Canada with strict firearm regulations and a population of 41,417,056 people -- one-ninth of the US -- suffered a grand total of 221 firearm-related homicides in 2025, less than one a day (or 0.000533% of Canada's population).
