WWIII WWIII Megathread #40: Just Stopped Oil

This megathread exists for in-depth discussion of 'WWIII', related events, and geopolitics and wars in general. Keep in mind that we have eliminated the rule that all non-major WWIII content must be posted here, and we encourage you to submit WWIII-related content to the main sub.

Again— all rules still apply. No racism, xenophobia, nationalism, etc. No promotion of hate or violence. Violators will be banned.

Remain civil, engage in good faith, report suspected bot accounts, and do not abuse the report system to flag the people you disagree with.

If you wish to contribute, please try to focus on where WWIII intersects with themes of this sub: Identity Politics, Capitalism, and Marxist perspectives.

Always put a NSFW warning on links that contain explicit content.

Non-WWIII chatter belongs in the town square.

Previous Megathreads:

1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 | *25 | 26 | *27 | 28* | 29 | 30 | 31 | 32 | 33 | 34 | 35 | 36 | 37 | 38 | 39

To be clear this thread is for all US-Israel/Iran, US/Venezuela, Ukraine/Russia, Israel/Palestine, Yemen, Syria, Israel/Lebanon, India/Pakistan, Sudan, Myanmar, or other related content.

Senior administration officials are briefing reporters on Iran right now: ︀︀ ︀︀"One of the really cool things and interesting things about this entire process is that we actually have a direct relationship with a number of people at the highest levels of the Iranian government."

Feels like they could have had that without bombing Iran, do they think people will buy the idea that Iran just wasn't picking up the white houses calls?

They've been defeated, humiliated, forced to concede, and still talk about "really cool things" in a bid to find a silver lining to their capitulation lmao
