rice costs ₹60/kg. chicken costs ₹250/kg. vegetables cost ₹40/kg and for under ₹200 you can eat like an athlete. but you'd rather spend ₹800 on a chicken burger meal and complain about how expensive eating healthy is. the math isn't mathing because you don't want it to.





There is approximately a zero percent chance Israel will abide by a ceasefire.



🚨BREAKING: IRAN: “WE WILL CUT THE UNDERSEA CABLES IN THE GULF THAT PROVIDE GLOBAL INTERNET CONNECTIVITY.”












BREAKING: Trump is 'weighing a military operation to extract nearly 1,000 pounds of uranium from Iran', according to Wall Street Journal report.




A resident in Tehran films the US and Israel bomb densely populated neighborhoods in Tehran. These are clearly massive munitions with little to no regard for civilian casualties. Indeed, the entire neighborhood is engulfed in fire and smoke. Just as Israel did in Gaza.






🇮🇷🇺🇸 This could get messy real quick… and here’s what the U.S. is actually trying to do Not a full invasion, not “we’re taking Iran”… the play is smaller: hit their leverage, mess with oil money, control key choke points, and if possible, deal with the nuclear angle. Troop build-up is there, but nowhere near Iraq 2003 levels. We’re talking low tens of thousands, not 200k+. Iran is bigger, tougher, and built for defense. So yeah… this is targeted moves, not a takeover. Meaning it could be any of these Kharg Island (oil hub play) Tiny island, about 5 miles long, sitting ~15 miles off Iran’s coast… but it’s basically where ~90% of their oil exports go through. Most of Iran’s coastline is too shallow for big tankers, so everything gets funneled here, loaded up, and shipped out. It’s literally the main tap of their oil money. This is why targeting it is a good idea: * You hit their biggest cash point in one move * Immediate pressure without going deep into Iran * Clear target, big impact, easy to explain * Even partial disruption shakes revenue and markets This is why targeting it is not a good idea: * You have to go through Hormuz and run along ~500km of Iranian coastline just to get there * Once you’re there, you’re sitting under missiles, drones, even artillery * Iran can still reroute some exports, so it’s not a full choke * Becomes a sitting duck you now have to defend 24/7 Qeshm / Larak (Hormuz control play) These sit right next to the Strait of Hormuz, where a huge chunk of the world’s oil passes. Iran uses them to watch traffic, pressure ships, even redirect routes. Control these, and you’re messing with global flow, not just Iran’s exports. This is why targeting it is a good idea: * You hit control over a global chokepoint * Limits Iran’s ability to mess with shipping * Bigger impact than just hitting oil facilities * You’re affecting global trade, not just Iran This is why targeting it is not a good idea: * These islands are heavily fortified and right next to mainland Iran * Qeshm is huge, not something you just “take” quickly * You’d likely need multiple islands at once * This can spiral into something much bigger, fast Smaller islands (Abu Musa, Greater / Lesser Tumbs) These are smaller, disputed islands around Hormuz with Iranian radar, missiles, and naval setups. Not as big as Qeshm, a bit further out, so slightly easier to hit but still part of the same system. This is why targeting it is a good idea: * Easier wins compared to the big targets * You chip away at Iran’s surveillance and positioning * Can use them as stepping stones for bigger ops * Lower cost, quicker results This is why targeting it is not a good idea: * Doesn’t really change the big picture * Mostly tactical gains, not strategic * Still exposed to Iranian retaliation * You risk escalation without getting much in return Uranium stockpile (deep strike option) Iran’s got around 400kg of 60% enriched uranium, likely sitting in underground sites near Isfahan. That’s close enough to weapons-grade that it can be pushed further pretty fast, potentially enough for around 10 warheads. This is why targeting it is a good idea: * You remove their biggest leverage instantly * Direct hit on the nuclear angle * Bigger long-term impact than any island * Changes the whole strategic game This is why targeting it is not a good idea: * You’re sending teams deep inside Iran * Finding it, securing it, moving it out… all under pressure * One mistake and everything blows up * Probably the riskiest option on the table So yeah… On paper, all of this sounds smart. In reality, it’s just picking which headache you’re ready to deal with.
