Israel doing some more work on Iran's two big steel factories, which account for up to 3% of their GDP:

I recall some Iranian official posted something like "good news- the two smelters in the Ahvav factory survived" the earlier airstrikes. Wondered about the wisdom of giving the Israelis that helpful bit of bda.

Stock market jumped on unconfirmed reports that Iranian President Pezeshkian is "open to ending the war". Is anyone else seeing this report anywhere?

A few pages back there were links to reports of him saying he has no power or control to do anything...the IRGC are running the show.

He probably wants to end it. I don't think he has the actual authority any more.

Gotta have my daily post in this thread :D

This need of having to have a daily affirmation of being a retard is not the way to go through life.

The Nimitz decommissioning was delayed a year for the JFK to complete all of the trials and be put into service.

Anyone arguing Iran will win this war is an idiot who willfully ignores reality to come to imagineered conclusions

Most of those planes in the video of the bunker are F-4s, last produced in 1981.

Venezuela now selling at FULL market price (Rubio confirmed) China's discount: gone. Forever.

Iran at war. Kharg Island threatened. 4.6M bpd to China disrupted. China's 2nd discount supplier gone.

Hormuz China's main supply route: blocked.

Bab el-Mandeb Houthis threatening China's alternative route

In January this was a wild theory.

Today it's the actual map ???

China imports 11.31M bpd.
Every discount supplier is going offline.
Every single route is threatened.

Wild theory? Or the most precise geopolitical chess move in decades?
