@ekwufinance I think that tungsten is another one

No rare earths = no fighter jets = no war - The US imports ~70–80% of its rare earths from China - China is restricting these very supplies - RE stockpiles were low before the war began It’s not just fighter jets... the whole US military is dependent on Chinese rare earths

@NajamAli2020 Yes, a total fukk-up any way one wants to look at it.

By eliminating Iran’s old leadership, the U.S. and Israel didn’t weaken Iran, they shot themselves in the foot. As someone on X noted, ageing leadership breeds inertia. Systems slow down. Decision-making gets dull. Trump and Netanyahu thought they were decapitating the system. Instead, they reset it. They didn’t cripple Iran, they re-energised it.

@LauraLoomer It's no secret that 100% of the MSM is propaganda, and that a large % of alternative media is propaganda as well. The fact that Turkey is pushing some of the propaganda is interesting, but not so important.

I’ve been right. And I will be right again when the information from the CIA comes out that proves Turkey among other countries has been funneling millions of dollars to podcasters to spread division and chaos in the US with talking points about Israel and Epstein. The CIA has the receipts on this. My source told me it is damning and undeniable. There are receipts that prove so many podcasters have been receiving massive payouts from Turkey. They accuse others of what they are actually guilty of. MTG lies about me because I’ve been exposing her grift for years. We need our lawmakers to call on the CIA to brief them on the receipts so this information can be made public.

@realtimsharp It's a little late for "no new wars"; that ship has sailed

Pro tip. I’m still pulling for Trump. But I’m pulling for Trump to be the “no new wars” & cheap gas President again.

@commons96055467 You're not suggesting that the US government would LIE..... ..... are you?

If all our 12 American bases in the Middle East, with over 40,000 service members stationed there, are totally destroyed, how is it that we have only 7 service members dead? Someone needs to check the inventory again. Someone is hiding the numbers. Or, Iran surgically bombed? 🤷‍♂️

@IranMilitaryEN The Burj Khalifa is asking to be taken down

A strong response to the UAE is coming • Decision‑making circles in Tehran are reviewing numerous reports indicating that the UAE played a significant role both in the outbreak of the war and in its continuation. This review is expected to end the weeks of restraint that Iran has shown toward the country. • Multiple reports also suggest that, in addition to hosting U.S. military barracks and bases—some of which were damaged in Iran’s defensive strikes—the UAE has allowed the United States to use some of its own air bases to launch attacks against Iran. • Some analysts believe the UAE functions as Israel’s foothold in the region and may have been involved in certain false‑flag operations against Oman and other countries. • Another form of cooperation attributed to the UAE involves helping Iran’s adversaries develop their target database using the artificial‑intelligence infrastructure available in the country. • In addition, Iranian private dhows and vessels, as well as parts of Iran’s coastal geography, have reportedly been struck from areas linked to this sheikhdom. In response, a firm Iranian reaction is expected.

@adamugarba Iran could destroy every building in Dubai... beginning with the Burj Khalifa

UAE has removed all pretenses and has joined Israel and the U.S. to declare war against Iran. They are planning to join the war and start shooting at Iranian positions.

@Hunter_Eagleman Trump wanted this war... Trump CAUSED this war; he can suffer the consequences of it.

Saying you’re NOT going to vote because you’re upset is NOT THE ANSWER! Sitting out an election because you’re frustrated, angry, or feeling like the system is rigged against you is exactly how you hand power to the people or policies you oppose.

@ThHappyHawaiian Part of it is the much higher debt-to-GDP ratios all around the world

Why was $100-$120 Brent fine from 2011-2014 But now in 2026 when vehicles are more fuel efficient, we have much higher renewable usage, and the inflation adjusted price is much lower, Is the economy totally at risk from $100-$120 Brent?

@anon11456 @academic_la Yes... and no. Countries that are friendly to Iran will get through. Everyone describes the situation as binary, i.e., the Strait is 100% open or 100% closed. NEITHER of those is actually true.

@arbitrage789 @academic_la Global economy wont survive strait closure for that long

There is zero chance of an agreement right now, in my opinion. The difference are too big: 1) The U.S. 15-point plan demands the complete dismantling of Iran's nuclear infrastructure and the removal of all enriched uranium. Iran refuses, asserting its sovereign right to civilian enrichment under the original JCPOA framework. 2) The U.S. demands the immediate reopening of the Strait as an international waterway. Iran demands international recognition of its absolute sovereignty over the passage, including the right to charge transit fees. 3) The U.S. insists on strict, verifiable limits on Iran’s ballistic missile arsenal. Iran views its missile program as a non-negotiable pillar of national defense and refuses to include it in any peace talks. 4) The U.S. requires Iran to cease all funding and support for groups like Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis. Iran counters by demanding the complete withdrawal of U.S. military bases from the Middle East. 5) Iran is demanding billions in financial compensation and war reparations for damages caused by Operation Epic Fury. The U.S. has flatly rejected any payments, viewing the strikes as necessary defensive actions. 6) Iran demands legally binding, enforceable guarantees that the U.S. will not exit future agreements. The U.S. maintains that any relief is contingent on immediate, intrusive inspections by international monitors. Since Iran is in the drivers seat and has escalation dominance, an operation in the Straits is very likely to be attempted.

@EylonALevy I'm not opposed to the US "winning". The issue is that of how long the war will drag on, and how many people will have to get killed in the process.

The most shocking thing about the Iran War is the number of people gunning for the West to lose this. Instead of thinking how to seize this golden opportunity to cripple the Iranian regime, they’re batting for the US and Israel to fail. Shameful.

@mark_slapinski Trump's funding cuts... or is it the Democrats?

BREAKING: TSA plans on closing ALL AIRPORTS IN AMERICA thanks to Trump's funding cuts.

@TheCoreyMathers I think he's just trying to be realistic about Trump's options.

@DA_Stockman Carrying water for the mullahs I see.

Hey, Trumpy, boots on the ground and disaster ahead or your turn to stuff your pie hole with TACOs! Iran Issues Its 5 Conditions for Ending the War Iran lays out five specific conditions under which Iran would agree to end the war, via Press TV. These include: 1. A complete halt to "aggression and assassinations" by the enemy.2. The establishment of concrete mechanisms to ensure that the war is not reimposed on the Islamic Republic.3. Guaranteed and clearly defined payment of war damages and reparations.4. The conclusion of the war across all fronts and for all resistance groups involved throughout the region5. International recognition and guarantees regarding Iran's sovereign right to exercise authority over the Strait of Hormuz.

@yoavkaufman Airstrikes alone won't do it.

There's no negotiating with the Iranian regime. Keep hitting them hard until they are no more.

@SouthAsiaIndex Good cop... bad cop.

Big Breaking: "Israel wanted to assassinate Iran's Foreign Minister Aragchi and speaker Ghalibaf. It had coordinates of their movements. Pakistan intelligence got the information about Israeli plans. Pakistan informed US that if Israel kills Abbas Aragchi and Ghalibaf, there will be no one left in Iran to talk to. Iran will be taken over by the hardcore IRGC commanders. At this, US intervened and stopped Israel from carrying out strikes to eliminate Aragchi and Ghalibaf. " - Pakistani official to Reuters

@ZeMirch Iran does not want a mere ceasefire; Iran wants nothing less than a strategic defeat for the US.

if i were to give my unsolicited opinion it sounds like trump legitimately wants to bail but iran has a firm grasp on his nutsack

@here4impact I think you've got to pay it back using US dollars

@coinbase yes but ser how do I pay back the loan ser

> Sell crypto to pay your taxes > Trigger taxable event > Owe more taxes > Sell more crypto and repeat Or > Borrow USDC against your crypto > Convert it to USD instantly > Pay Uncle Sam > Keep your bags and thank yourself later Your choice.

@Ignis_Rex Yes; Trump "let the genie out of the bottle".... and she's never going back in.

The Turkish Foreign Minister after his return from Riyadh: Nothing will return to how it was before the war; things have changed forever, and we will know how to protect ourselves. The Middle East is changing, no, the entire world will change. America and Israel opened the mouth of the jar and let the genie out by targeting Khamenei, so out came the Iranian missiles that have been preparing for this for forty years. Iran cannot be restrained in the escalation, and the only loser is the Middle East, searching for who will protect it after the Americans abandoned them.

@BitPaine Be nice to Ben

All of your models will be destroyed. But especially Ben Cowen’s models.
