Like literally no war is “justified” since it’s just about idk phenotype expression, resources, whatever. But Iran has a much higher IQ than middle east shitholes so it’s awkwardly powerful in a way that means you have to Attack it from a political science pov.
Btw the most justified war is when African tribes conquer Pygmies because they’re ridiculously Short. Discuss. Height makes right, champ. |

Date: September 18th, 2026 11:09 AM Author: exciting pearly casino I think it's a bit more complicated. The backbone of the reserve currency status is the petrodollar. The US signs a lease granting partial ownership of Venezuelan oil fields. That's not so that we get money from Venezuela, it's so that oil companies have assurances into the future. The north American energy bloc is a counter to the ME and the only future safe energy supply.
Great interview with the type of people US energy is partnering with. Huge Venezuelan dispora from the energy sector after Chavez booted them all out. Now they're coming back and extremely pro American energy. Not saying everything will work out this way (doubtful) but it's certainly not as simple as the news portrays it.

Date: September 18th, 2026 11:17 AM Author: Fucking Fuckface Even if we accept this view, our wars and policing in the middle east, our unrestrained support of Israel, and our over-eager use of sanctions has wasted a tremendous amount of money other than for the benefit of the United States while reducing our stature as a trustworthy partner
Had there been nuclear weapons restraining various actors, including ourselves, we would have had greater incentive to pursue stability, which would also funnel much more money back into the US instead of our military
I don't think there's any coherent defense for what we've done than "because we could" (or thought we could, at least), and that's not a recipe for long-term success |

Date: September 18th, 2026 11:22 AM Author: exciting pearly casino I think it's possible that a nuclear Iran could further stability in the middle east. That would be the worst possible outcome for the US. Israel and these Sunni dictators are by design. The US needs a pretext to maintain occupation.
A nuclear Iran would remove a ton of options from the table and likely we'd see other Arab states begin their own programs. The US must be the only nuclear power in the region. |

And Trump blusters but he has the full backing of the establishment now. Take that for what you will. He might be picking options in a given theater that are on the margins of what's acceptable, but he operating within agreed upon parameters. It's not that big of a departure from his prior presidents. Even on something like immigration. He's allowed to cut it off because the gambit has flipped to ai solving population decline, not because we got really good at border security all of a sudden. |

There are tons of Shia Persians but where the oil is along the Gulf is full of Sunni tribes and we have our favorite Kurds to the west. Israel wanted that to all fracture something like Iraq or Syria.
The US just needs a bad guy in the region so we have a reason that arabs are cool with us having bases there (even though the bases are really there so we can prevent their autocratic governments from being deposed).
Blockading Iran and stopping all of the discounted oil NOT sold in dollars from going to China is priority 1a. |

Date: September 18th, 2026 2:25 PM Author: exciting pearly casino The modern Zionist movement went back decades before WW2. Even among Jews it was considered fringe. Then these fringe groups convinced the most sophisticated geopolitical players in the world to make a purely altruistic concession? Or Maybe the brits like putting diametrically opposed groups next to each other in areas of strategic importance as a means to exploit the easily foreseeable issues that arise. This is text book. They really took advantage of the insecurity of the Jews and got them to take on a really unenviable task. They're in the desert, not the part with oil mind you, surrounded by people that hate them that are ladden with cash.
Intersection with Zionism and Imperial Partition (Sykes-Picot)Strategic Buffer for the Suez Canal: During World War I and its aftermath, British imperial strategists viewed the Levant and Palestine not merely through ideological or religious contexts, but as a vital land bridge and defensive perimeter protecting the Suez Canal—the maritime lifeline to India—and checking potential continental rivals from pushing toward the Inner Crescent.The Balfour Declaration and Realpolitik: British support for a Jewish national home in Palestine (formalized in the Balfour Declaration) aligned with wartime calculations to secure strategic allies and establish a friendly, reliable administrative presence in a pivotal geopolitical crossroads adjacent to the Suez and the Arabian landmass.Mapping the Middle East: The secret Sykes-Picot Agreement of 1916 divided the Ottoman Empire's Arab provinces into British and French spheres of influence, reflecting the exact kind of global-scale cartographic carving that Mackinder’s rising school of geopolitics sought to analyze and master. |

To the extent the Brits believed a Jewish state in the region would be advantageous to Brits, it was because Zios convinced them of it (or "convinced" them of it by putting compromising photos on their desks or a suitcase full of cash. This was Robert Maxwell's MO). Certainly TE Lawrence did not believe that a homogeneously Arab Levant posed any disadvantage to the UK.

Date: September 18th, 2026 4:14 PM Author: exciting pearly casino Israel has been useful in the region and for the most part they shoulder the burden. Sure we pay them but at least they have skin in the game. I can also see plenty of instances where our interests align and we bomb someone but also plenty where we don't. I think Iran now is at a phase where the Israelis do not like the aims we're pursuing. At a base level the Jews want anyone they can't buy off to be reduced to chaos.
I see Israel as a masterstroke and last vestige of the old English statecraft. Extremely manipulative but they always had a way of getting exactly what they wanted but claiming to somehow get outclassed or like the made a mistake. I don't think anyone in history has been more successful at that game.
