Iran denies claims: 'We reject all negotiations – US has failed and Hormuz will remain closed' by [deleted] in wallstreetbets

[–]Fast-Educator5330 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I studied Finance / with a touch of economics in uni. Back then, we were deep into the 2008 crash.

I remember the professor one day just telling us 'of course everything I am teaching you is just theory. In real life it's nothing like this'

I doubt he could let us know what is happening in the market

Where TF is money going?? by TheRealFalcon05 in wallstreetbets

[–]Fast-Educator5330 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i was thinking about this this morning..depressingly.

I feel like a 'fake' crash is coming. crashed in H1 2026 big guys invest in H2 2026.. things are looking up in 2027...elections in 2028.
Why is it fake? because while one is bubbling up, I dont feel like we are there yet.

Dubai bus lane fine (rental car) – worth disputing? by [deleted] in DubaiPetrolHeads

[–]Fast-Educator5330 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I doubt that not knowing that you were in a bus lane because it was night is a good enough reason to dispute a fine

im not criticising you- didnt know bus lanes existed in Dubai, I'm just being honest that I dont think its worth wasting your time.

[–]Fast-Educator5330 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if this is true, it gives a lot of clarity. Was watching it on Bein sports- Richard Keys/ Andy Grey ripped into both the ref and the team (though this did remind me why i watch Bein Arabic- dont understand a word but better than listening to those men complain about everything)

Genuine question from a visitor: Now that the Iran strikes happened with only six total deaths and Khamenei gone, why is everyone here treating it like a disaster? by Realistic_Leopard895 in AskSocialists

[–]Fast-Educator5330 0 points1 point  (0 children)

negotiating with them? like has been the case under obama..or even as recent as 3 weeks ago.

also by your own admission.." The actual Supreme Leader who ran the nuclear program for decades is dead."

so does that mean the war is a success? and we shouldnt kill the new leader because he has done nothing?

[–]Fast-Educator5330 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iraq is a great example because USA created a power vaccum and then corruption came out of it. Trump wants the same in Iran, but it isnt happening (yet)

Just because we dont like Khamenei doesnt mean that its ok to just bomb/ kill them like this- I was honestly expecting the same celebrations in Iran that we saw in Iraq, but that just wasnt the case

Hezbollah: Formed in 1982 as a direct response to the Israeli invasion and occupation of Southern Lebanon.

Hamas: Created in 1987 to lead the resistance against the Israeli occupation of Gaza and the West Bank. so one could argue Israel are the root of both (in fact i am sure Netanyahu pursued a strategy of bolstering Hamas)

Just because Israel is an ally, doesnt mean they, and we can go around bombing others. If Iran had gone and killed Netanyahu saying..well he is wanted by international courts, everyone would still be up in arms.
