War Update: The good news was that Iran has not (yet) attacked anybody. But yesterday, the media relentlessly beat the war drums of bad news until media’s parents told it to stop making all that ruckus and go to bed. Here are four quick headlines to get you up to speed. First, the UK Guardian reported the Iranians are wondering why every time they get attacked, people always tell Iran to use restraint:
Next, in a bit of accidental journalistic honesty, Politico reported that the wars in Ukraine and Israel are linked, as I’ve been saying for over a year now:
Of course the two wars are linked. Russia’s recent alliance with Iran began after the ritualistic torching of its relationship with Israel, when Team Biden forced Israel to side with Ukraine.
Never forget that in 2022, the Ukrainians were blowing the Dickens out of Russia using cheap drones, at a time when Russia had no domestic drone industry of its own, and was staring at defeat in the Proxy War. So Russia reached out to Iran:
Russia made some kind of deal with Iran, a desperate deal, which in 2022 provided the Russians with the most advanced drone technology in the world. Now, we are watching the Russians have to cough up the steep price:
Iran didn’t just give Russia thousands of drones. Iran also gave Russia the blueprints. Iran also lent Russia some Iranian drone engineers. Now, Russia is making its own cheap and effective drones. It owes Iran a lot.
Nor did it help any when Team Biden let the Ukrainians use American weapons and our satellite targeting to strike civilian targets inside Russian sovereign territory. Russia is pretty sore about that. One day, we may come to realize that our decision was a foolish error of Bidenic proportions.
Here is a fact: Biden’s Proxy War is driving every major conflict in the world right now.
Third, for what it’s worth, ABC ran a story yesterday reporting that the US and Israel ‘expect’ an Iranian attack soon:
Fourth, and finally, Israel said it has no intention of showing restraint either. The Times of Israel:
In other words, even if Iran misses, or even if it only blows up another desert cactus, Israel will strike back.
So.
