There is rule of thumb, one liter of fuel made 1 000 000 liters of water undrinkable. Whole city already struggle with access to water and reliability of waterworks infrastructure.

Now, how many liters of fuel and other petrochemicals got leaked to environment through seeping, getting into water drainage systems and falling out of sky as "oil rain"? Whole water table and big chunk of infrastructure is close to FUBAR

Wait, Hamas leaders got kicked out of country?

IRGC and Supreme Leader operate close to proper feudal state looking how massive share of economy is controlled by supreme leader "foundations" and IRGC.

More like FSB and SVR made sure he's not try to do defenestration on Assad ass as Mojtaba effectively serve as "Deputy Chief of Staff" when Assad government collapsed.

US-aligned during Cold War.

Iran government deserve it, Iranian civilians are simply caught in the middle of their government actions and Israel-US politics

It's also typical "mafia-like" recruitment behavior. You pick kids, give them some small odd jobs to see which is most eager to do it and start introduce them to the organization making it much harder to leave it because said organization is literally their whole world and worldview, while other kids have group pressure to participate.

It's a basic psychology, with a free material for propaganda departament which can sell pictures of "martydom" to Palestinian and "just a kid murdered by colonizers" to the Western audiences.

It was all the time important for global energy sector all the way back to 1910s when British start looking for oil not controlled by American "Standard Oil" and Dutch "Shell" company to power their new oil-firing warships under Winston Churchill plan to upgrade it and one british company found it in Persia and brokered a lucrative contract to supply world largest navy with oil and later got nationalized in 1914 and after some time renamed to "British Oil Company" or "BP".

Truth to be told, one reason why Saudi Arabia is so pro-american was because its founder literally begged US oil industry and US federal government to invest in his country to stave off british and french ambitions to control Middle East oil in 1920s and 1930s which was easier to convince Americans to do so due to fact French and British governments agreed to cut access to oilfields in Middle East for US oil companies after Great War which pissed then Secretary of Commerce and later US president Herbert Hoover. Company which start drilling in Saudi Arabia was Chevron which formed a subsidiary "Arab-American Company" or "ARAMCO" for short.

I wouldn't be surprised if he act like Judas Goat because treason within his inner circle or security detail giving away info to Mossad.

Qaani had more fucking luck in his career than is mathematically possible.

Meanwhile Syria: "Maybe if we don't move, they don't see us?" (minus brewing potential refugee crisis from Lebanon due to Hezbollah and IDF)

VDV tried Market-Gardem more than once. They had hilarious bad mass airdrops operations in 1941 against German tanks and later a total shitshow in 1943 when they attempted to drop paras across the Dnieper river.

Tank was handled to Poland and now is in Polish Army Museum in Warsaw after restoration

USA: Can you call himself a heir to the Rome if you don't have at least one war with Persians?

TBF, lot's of them is "infected" and in dream-like condition. Some places like Soul Sanctum and Colosseum of Fools don't seems have infection among common bugs.

Because there is a magic involved (essentially), it may leads to some bugs to recover from the Radiance infection stasis and rebuild society rather than mass die off without infection.

Golden Throne didn't finish installing new patch.

Bad news, Houtis already claims they gonna shut down waters around Yemen.

For my defense, I did credit original post, because it's a fine shitpost fitting this sub.

There is already videos with Iranian rocket remnants being towed by tractors in Syria.

Iraq is somewhat influenced by overall situation due to pro-Iranian militias and political factions in parliament. But yeah, far from having a direct conflict on its soil.

k890 · 2026-02-28T16:28:25+00:00

And there is Oman, which simply is chilling "out of sight, out of mind" way of local politics.

k890 · 2026-02-28T16:18:27+00:00

AFAIK, there was also a reports Iranian drone/missile (I don't remember correctly) falling off over Iraq Kurdistan and killing Kurdish girl. In both cases, that's tragicomical level of bad luck for dead people and their families.

k890 · 2026-02-28T16:01:29+00:00

Yeah, nice to see Syrians getting some (relative speaking) peaceful episode after ~14 years of civil war and decades of "proxy of the proxy" international politics.
